self regulation and Korean Dramas
Wednesday, Mar 25, 2009 4:40PM / Standard Entry
Self regulation - I have none, not when it comes to AnD, playing Ratchett & Clank, Facebook (a whole heap of old school and varsity friends are on there now), reading and now Korean Dramas.
NZ tv is crap at the moment so I have finally started on my big list of Korean Dramas that I would like to watch. I started with Full House, because it has been recommended to me by Butter and Enigma and because it is on mysoju.com and because - let's face it - Rain is very VERY nice to look at.
So I watched the 16 episodes in two days, geez it's not like I didn't have anything else to do. Anyway big thumbs up from me, I enjoyed Full House, I cried a lot coz I'm a sap, what more can I say....
I see that Full House 2 is coming... I wonder how good it will be, I have high hopes

Pete Sweet (The Mighty Boosh)
Thursday, Mar 19, 2009 11:05AM / Standard Entry
K and I have been watching the Mighty Boosh with Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt. This little gem was an extra on the dvd of the 2nd season. It is funny but a bit rude (simulated sex scenes with an imaginary person, - you don't see any naughty bits
) so viewer discretion is advised. Noel is quite sexy, in that skinny, too much eyeliner, cheeky, British way, you will appreciate this more if you have watched The Mighty Boosh.

We also watched some Red Dwarf - this series creaked abit in it's last year or two but some of it was hilarious

Indubitably Pisces
Thursday, Feb 26, 2009 11:47AM / Standard Entry
Okay horoscopes are not really my thing, but I just felt like sharing a piscean blog with my sister and brother pisceans out there (and of course anybody else who may or may not be interested) for today is a glorious celebration of the day of my birth
Mythology - the story of Aphrodite and Eros. The story involves Aphrodite and her son Eros escaping from the terrible monster Typhon by turning themselves into fish and hiding underwater until it was safe to come back to the surface. As fish, they tied their tails together with a cord so that they wouldn't lose one another while swimming in the darkness of the deep water. Upon hearing their tale, Zeus rewarded the pair by placing them among the stars as the constellation of Pisces.
The low down (good and bad) -
The compatiblity scale - scorpio (phwoar) and cancer
The bollocks - Pisces is the 12th sign of the Zodiac and is represented by two fish swimming in opposite directions. The two fish symbolize the internal struggle of the soul within a Pisces. Often, the fish are swimming away from each other in a circle representing life after death or reincarnation. Pisces is considered a feminine or negative sign. Feminine signs are considered more passive, receptive and sensitive than masculine/positive signs.

Dangermouse - the coolest cartoon hero ever
Wednesday, Feb 25, 2009 12:46PM / Standard Entry
Introducing the coolest cartoon hero ever, even cooler than Atom Ant and Scooby Doo (which is REALLY saying something, I love Scooby Doo).
Dangermouse, is very 80s, one of the villians, if you are not familar with the cartoon is a big green toad called Greenback (and yes he had an American accent, which made a change from the German accents UK baddies used to have - and the Russian accents American baddies used to have
). I don't remember the other villians? Anybody else?Penfold is also a pretty cool sidekick, though if anybody saw Freaky Friday with Jamie Lee Curtis, the guy who played her neurotic needy patient (Evan) looks a lot like Penfold.
Dangermouse will be my profile pic for awhile until the Swedish Chef comes back from his holiday on a Pacific cruise...
of course Boon looks better in an eye patch

taking dingbat to a whole new level
Friday, Feb 20, 2009 4:32PM / Standard Entry
yep that's me, I went to pick my daughter up from a friends house earlier and got to the car and realised I had put a black sandal on my left foot and a kung fu shoe on my right foot. Whaaaa? I have to say this is the first time I have ever not noticed putting on different shoes (with an inch height difference).
My daughters braces came off yesterday, whoopie dee shoot!!
I have blacked out my profile pic temporarily to protest against the Guilt Upon Accusation law 'Section 92A' (in New Zealand) that calls for internet disconnection based on accusations of copyright infringement without a trial and without any evidence held up to court scrutiny. This is due to come into effect on February 28th unless immediate action is taken by the National Party. I'm going to do it to my Facebook and Bebo accounts too.
Anyhu have a good weekend everybody =)
