Take a sick day off work and trust that fellow employees will not usurp your desk in your absence.

World's most pedantic scientist

Katie Melua's brand of truly crap pop singer songwriter nonsense has been questioned by a physicist

Truly hilarious stuff.

This week I shall mostly be recommending...

1) Watch Donnie Brasco
2) Break out the Mellon Collie again, maybe it's just me and my nostalgia...
3) Check out this blog, rumoured to be from the pen of Stanley Donwood: http://tachistoscope.blogspot.com/

Apparently the house Radiohead are currently recording in is haunted. Band members have reported strange goings on in the house and similar events are recorded in this blog. Even if this is not a Radiohead-related blog it's good cane.

Badvice of the Week

Indeed, I ate my fair share of wieners that day.

Yet more hazards are appearing at work, and I have decided to publish my very first double Badvice of the Week to help address these issues.

Cause youself permanent death through the misuse of compressed air

This is the factory with electricity, unfortunately it has too much electricity

I keep getting electrocuted in this place. The radiators shock me, the door handles shock me, the desk that the printer sits on shocks me, even the light switches shock me. I went to the bog the other day and I actually saw the arc jump from the lightswitch housing to my finger.

In other news, recording has been temporarily brought to a halt. It seems organizational discrepancies at Chéz Sugglew have left the studio in an unusable state until Monday. Disappointing as this is we expect to have a three week run of solid recording, mixing and hopefully mastering... between work.

Speaking of work, it's recently been getting in the way of blog updates so you'll have to forgive me... Mike.

We need a readership.

Get hit in the groin with a football

Crackhoe-Donald's

Just back from lunch there. Due to Shannon's unfortunate status as an "industrial hub" (I also like to refer to it as "Fagtown") , quality eating emporiums are at a premium here. Having already tried a few venues over the past few weeks (including a pub that served a carvery menu that appeared to have been made from several carvery menus) it was ill-advisedly decided that McDonald's could be relied on.

So we went in and were smacked in the face with that same McDonald's smell that I'm sure you get anywhere in the World. I opted for a pretty standard meal. Went for some Chicken Nuggets and such with a bit of Eurosaver for valu.

The meal was fine. But then I realised that it was just shite. I doubt if I've ever actually wanted a McDonald's in all my life. It's just an idea planted in your bloody head that it's enjoyable. And it's not, it's just not.

So anyway, I'm never eating a McDonald's again. It won't be a struggle never to have one again, but exposure will always remain high due to the fact that people I know will continue to go there.

Rant over.

Badvice of the Week

I've decided that since Mike has his Daily Fud feature, I might as well have my own. So here it is, the much less ambitious Badvice of the Week.

I have opted out of making it a daily feature, therefore if I blog more than one badvice in a week it'll be a bonus.

Listen to Today FM in work

Blogged

I just blogged myself

Tromboner

Perhaps posting your idea on the blog would entitle you to creative copywright as you then have proof that you owned the idea on this date.

Of course, it clearly wouldn't.

We should get some filehosting space so we can link to multimedia trombonery from here.

Bellend Sebastian

Already this is turning into a place where we can simply publish our own private gags. Fantastic.

Also, I realised something recently. Track 11 on Dear Catastrophe Waitress is called Roy Walker. Permit me to remind you of who Roy Walker is.

He's the happy chappy on the left.

Now we can publish our insightful views over the internet to those in need of our insightful views.
