I've Scored Tusker Lager!
I haven't drunk this since I was in Africa, and they're selling it 100 yards from my front door. Delicious, curiosly honey tasting, cold lager. Get in ya dancer!
Zoomable Paper Maps
Now this is so fantastic! Like google maps in your pocket. Is it an original idea? We've had printed paper for centuries, and there's still things creative minds can do with it. Technology doesn't create creativity. Humans do.
Upon Reflection...
Christmas Eve was pretty fantastic!
Kick-Ass, Hit-Girl Redband Rocks!
Kill Bill vs Justice League vs Superbad. This should be good!Snowboarding at Chop Gate
It's not often you get to do this in England. Had a fantastic Saturday with the guys after a heavy night's snow on top of everything that was already around. I'm just sorry it looks like it's melting this week!
Cinnamon Chasers = Hot Shit!
From Last.fm:
Cinnamon Chasers is inspired by films like Flight Of The Navigator, Never ending Story. “I try to create music that gives me the vibe those classic films gave me as a kid”
Rather than create pretentious moody dance music Russ wants to create music that has an honest heart, and good intentions, and feels like a good friend. Cinnamon Chasers achieves this with a perfect blend of crisp electronics, Pop based song structure and melodies, and an Indie feel.

This music is so, so good!
What a mess my desk is!
This is SO not me. Must clean this shit up in the morning - I'm getting buried!
Jay-Z vs The Cure
Close To You (Dirt Off Your Shoulder) by Jay - Z Vs The Cure
I just can NOT stop listening to this. It's like sugar & spice, marmite & toast, corona & lime. Awesome.
Are U2 Dirty, Rotten Music Thieves?
Don't get my wrong - I'm a fan of U2. But there's more to this than co-incedence, surely.iTunes on random just threw up two songs for my listening pleasure - 5 years apart - that sound exactly the same! The first is 'Hunch' by the Britpop band Sleeper - it was written in 1995.
Next up, 'In a Little While' by U2 - written in 2000:
Which leads me to C&C Music Factory with 'Things That Make You Go Hmmmm'....
