Quick's the word and sharp's the action.

No time gang. No time to get into the inner workings of the world that are so regularly stripped back to the bone and laid bare to piercing gaze of the interweb here upon this altar of incisive commentary. I am a busy bee today. As a result I can only throw out a series of questions for you, my acolytes to ponder upon:

Why are puppies so much better than everything else? Sure it makes sense for them to be a bit better, but THAT much better? I detect the work of some intelligent designer and I shouldn't be too surprised if he/she turned out to be a really awesome puppy. Discuss.

If you could go back in time to any period of history and have sex with anyone, who would it be and why? And would it surprise you to know that the correct answer is that it would be with Rasputin, because you couldn't stop it from happening? Think on't.

Do you think Kenny Dalglish would like me if we met in a social situation? I do hope so. Four Thousand words on my desk by Monday.

Anyway, that's all I've time for today I'm afraid folks. I have been using the phrase 'Swinging the lead' a lot recently. It's a substitute for 'bulshitting' or 'trying it on'. It's an old nautical phrase. Why not enjoy its use yourself?

Film recommendation: The first hour or so of Never Let Me Go

  1. while I agree that puppies are really well designed I think kittens may have the edge...simply by being alive they make me cry with the cuteness. and what about the baby lambkin? and the tiddler goat? the chick? ALL baby animals are designed to be so cute that we cannot bear to kill them...so they can take over the world...they said it'd be ants but I can't see it myself!

    I'd go back in history and have sex with David Bowie while he was Ziggy Stardust...blimey! swoon swoon...

  3. Kittens trump puppies though. Cats are also quite awesome, and my cat is the only living creature other than me to take a regular interest in me removing my bra. Primarily because he sleeps with his face mushed into it but still.

  4. Never Let Me Go in its entirety is a wonderful film! The Novel even more so.

  5. Kittens are fine but they are no puppies. Never Let Me Go was great until the end when they hammered us over the head with the moral of the story.

  6. Puppies are amazing but kittens are like concentrated cuteness, have you ever seen one sneeze? There are no words to describe how adorable it actually is...

  9. Nothing is cuter than a baby panda, fact. As for the historical sex, i would go for Casanova, check out what all ze fuss was about.

  10. puppys are ridiculously cute! the reasons all animals even humans are that cute when young is because they have evolved social resourcers like big eyes so that older animals are motivated to care for them while they are vulnerable and too young to take care of themselves...this explains why some animals will take care of a baby animal despite it not actually being their own offspring! - thats what John Bowlby proposed anyway.

    sorry to kill everything with psychological theory!
