It's a mistake to think you can solve any major problems only with potatoes
-And yes Liverpool are through to the Champions League so I'm walking around with a swagger right now (well not right NOW obviously)
-Stereophonics are at number one with 'Dakota'. Sweet. It's easily one of the best songs they've done yet. It's been in my head non-stop for about two weeks.
-When ads are funny they can really be funny- my favorite at the moment is the Pepsi one where a monkey is driving a guy to the airport while another guy in the front seat is showing it how to get there by showing it a map. Pepsi have cleverly realized one of the main rules of humour- put a monkey in there and people will laugh. Another funny one is for Halifax bank and its got a black guy doing the whole 'ive got bling and women by the pool' thing and it's absolutely pant-wettingly funny especially considering it's for a very respectable bank.
-You couldnt pick a more exciting time to be following UK politics than right now as the government and the opposition fight over the prevention of terrorism Bill (which among other things will enable the government to put you under house arrest, slap a curfew on your terrorist ass and give you an electronic tag to name a few goodies in store) the opposition wants the law to run out in November so that they can consider it in the meantime- they call it a 'sunset clause' although if that sounds romantic trust me, its not. Tony Blair told them-and I quote- "Fuck off you terrorist-loving bastards!" and he had to be knocked out with a tranquilizer dart before he said certain things about Michael Howard's mother. This doesnt mean the government are completely against compromise- they paid for the pizza at last night's debate for example- but otherwise the two sides are eyeball-to-eyeball on the issue and Blair has refused to make any more concessions. The government gave way by saying they'll let a judge decide all the control orders but otherwise they refuse to compromise on the 'sunset clause' issue. It's exciting stuff (and I'm only half-joking) The bill has been bouncing from one house of parliament to another in a way that makes one think both sides might as well play tennis while they are at it. The whole thing has become incredibly tense and they've been slinging insults at each other all through the week. I personally think Michael Howard and Tony Blair should settle the whole thing in the wrestling ring but 'fight club' style- now THAT would really send a message to the terrorists!
