I have more friends than ever before, yet I'm lonely. I need someone.

I awoke this morning with a hangover, caused by drinking a bottle of Baileys in record time at 1am last night, after an evening on ProPlus caffeine pills.
Current weight: 196lbs. I want to lose another 21lbs.

1800 words on Cuban - US relations researched and written inside 5 hours. That's one deadline less.
Now for the celebratory Baileys...
Update: in the words of Rowley Birkin QC, "I'm affraid I was vey, vey drank"
I have fantasies about Lara Croft. I know it's wrong but I can't help it,

Is this because of the Nude Raider patch on the game itself or the movie?
I was called a conspiracy theorist today because I suggested that governments lie. Hmmmm. 
In other news: I had another presentation this morning. This time it was on reasons for voter apathy. O how exciting, I hear you cry. It went badly, not quite so badly as the last though, so overall it was a success.

I believe wombles are conspiring to take over England in a bloody coup if thats any consolation.
ps: I don't trust the government to open a can of beans that is already open.

The first casualty of war is truth. I watch the news and find it hard to believe anything I'm told, even from the so called impartial BBC.

Well, it seems Turkey has begun moving troops into Kurdish areas in Iraq...so it seems Hitchens and Ignatieff were wrong, and we can FORGET freedom for the people of Iraq...
Fuck.

I havn't been in a pub all weekend. Today maybe. It is unusual for me I suppose.
I couldn't think of any Cock soup gags either, total brainlock there.
I'm dubious of most of the news services too, this whole situation is messy.

Thought:
If no significant Weapons of Mass Destruction are found in Iraq it will prove somewhat embarassing for Bush & Blair. Do you think that if no such weapons were found, it would be made public? Or do you think the US government would fabricate evidence of WMDs?
"How is the world ruled and led to war? Diplomats lie to journalists and believe these lies...

I saw an article in the Washington Post about how some news items aren't covered with much enthusiasm here but are widely reported overseas, such as the beating to death of detainees by the US army. It pointed out an item where a director from an international nuclear power agency (I forget the name of the agency, sorry) found that a paper from the US govt, stating that Iraq had bought uranium from Niger, was "not authentic". I.e., it was phony.
I've been arguing that this war might help the Kurds in my journal...but I dunno if, ultimately, it will have been enough of a difference for them for the war to have been worth it-- the cost of life, and the horrible reputation the US has now internationally. If the US had really wanted to help the Kurds, they coulda simply alienated Turkey and given the Kurds massive aid and occupying weaponry for anti-Hussein defense....whatever.

I watched a documentary about 1960s designs yesterday. It made me think that the 60s really was the decade of style.
In Britain at least, the cars were way better - compare a Mini Cooper to a Nissan Micra, or an E Type Jag or DB4 to a BMW. Practicality may not have been so high, but styling was miles better.

My mum is a total 60's fan. She grew up in that day and age and certainly enjoyed herself. I take after me Dad though and he was a biker. If I had lived in the 60's I'd be riding a Triumph, wearing leather and listening to Rock and Roll.
The modern cars are horrific travesties and should all be crushed and turned into dog food tins. I want a MK1 Zephyr.

I wish I wasn't such a procrastinator.
I have a new keyboard, I lost my temper with the last one and threw it at the wall while playing Tomb Raider.
My fingers are cold.
I wish I was 18 again.
My new DMs have fallen apart.
My mother searches through my litter bin.
I want Richard Burton's voice.

I dig the flag! It's so retarded, there are people here mad at France....there's people talking about calling French fries "freedom fries" in Capitol HIll restaurants. I'd sooner rip my nuts off with a plastic fork than refer to anything as "freedom" anything or "patriot" anything.

It was my fault- I slid down the stairs on my ass and crashed into a disco ball.
Four friends, two cats, a mother, two brothers, a broken car, a father of sorts, my books, CDs, some videos, ten pairs of shoes & boots, an assortment of clothes a size too small.
University, work.
Not much of a life, is it?

In cages of convention from the cradle to the grave"

i've got a broken heart so i reckon i beat you hands down! i haven't been into uni for quite a while so good job prospects are looking bleak too! keep smiling though!
I arrived at university today a happy man. Happy, that was, until I discovered that I had to give a presentation on asylum & immigration at 11:00am. I discovered this at approximately 10:55am from another unfortunate member of my group. What's more, everybody else had prepared for it, they were stood around clutching sheefs of notes, reciting Home office reports off by heart. Thank god...

Cheers for the link
The Young Ones is probably the only sound files I dont have. Got Red Dwarf, Bottom, Black Adder, Python and lots from Army of Darkness. Now my collection is complete.
The Young Ones is probably the only sound files I dont have. Got Red Dwarf, Bottom, Black Adder, Python and lots from Army of Darkness. Now my collection is complete.
In one another's arms, birds in the trees
- Those dying generations - at their song,
The salmon-falls, the mackerel-crowded seas,
Fish, flesh, or fowl, commend all summer long
Whatever is begotten, born, and dies.
Caught in that sensual music all neglect
Monuments of unageing intellect.
An aged man is but a paltry thing,
A tattered coat upon a stick, unless
Soul clap its hands and sing, and louder sing
For every tatter in its mortal dress,
Nor is there singing school but studying
Monuments of its own magnificence;
And therefore I have sailed the seas and come
To the holy city of Byzantium.
O sages standing in God's holy fire
As in the gold mosaic of a wall,
Come from the holy fire, perne in a gyre,
And be the singing-masters of my soul.
Consume my heart away; sick with desire
And fastened to a dying animal
It knows not what it is; and gather me
Into the artifice of eternity.
Once out of nature I shall never take
My bodily form from any natural thing,
But such a form as Grecian goldsmiths make
Of hammered gold and gold enamelling
To keep a drowsy Emperor awake;
Or set upon a golden bough to sing
To lords and ladies of Byzantium
Of what is past, or passing, or to come.
I do like Blake's poems but I prefer Yeats
I'm sorta glad not to be dating. I like my SG friends, and I hate the whole uncomfortable-introduction/ getting-acquainted/ first-date thing....eehhhggg, just THINKING about it...it's like job interviewing!
