Droooool.

We only said good-bye with words,
I died a hundred times,
You go back to her
And I go back to black ..


Oh man, I'm tired now. It was our presentation at 9am this morning, the one we've been pushing back for the best part of 4 weeks that we only started a couple of days ago. I'd kill for a nap right now. But then I'd probably feel all guilty for killing someone for something as simple as a nap, and it would probably stop me sleeping. Plus I'm not sure killing anyone would ever result in getting a nap. You couldn't kill someone and get sleep. Well, you could kill someone and then go to sleep, but you wouldn't sleep comfortably. You could get an iPod from killing someone, but not sleep. You could get a bed and a pillow from the person you just killed as well I guess but the actual act of sleep would not be gotten from killing anyone. Am I making myself clear?

So yeah, don't kill someone and try to get a nap from them. Just take their iPod and phone.

Just in-keeping with the steady stream of internet crap that so often makes my day, have any of you seen an advert on facebook, its in there with the Mafia Wars adverts and stuff. I think they're for some kind of law firm. I forget, I've only seen it once. It has a picture of a baby on it and it says, "We fight for kids with brain damage." The baby in the picture is this little black kid with drool coming out of its mouth. Anyone else seen it? I assume drool is the first symptom of brain damage. That and googly eyes.

Anyhoo, the other day it appeared for the first time on my profile and I just happened to glance at it very quickly, not really taking it in, and thought it said "We fight kids with brain damage". I got a big chuckle out of that one. I'm still suppressing the disturbing image of a bunch of lawyers laying into a brain damaged child and beating the drool out of him.

As an endnote and a barely disguised bit of advertising/suggestion, I've just rediscovered the filmic gems that are 28 Days/28 Weeks Later. Especially the 2nd one, as I haven't seen that one as much. Watch them both. Very good material for potential drinking games before a night out. Drink every time you think to yourself 'Wow, this is one of the best pieces of cinema ever made'. Contrastingly, you could watch Snakes on a Plane and drink each time you wonder 'Why the fuck did they ever make this?'. On both counts, you'll be pissed in under 10 minutes.
