I recently bought a 160gb iPod Classic and loaded my entire collection onto it... now I only have about 16gb of space left on the thing. I hadn't realised that my musi collection was so out of control.

Big dick = small brain, or so the girl that told me I must have a brain the size of a small planet once told me.

Watched a couple of DVDs over the weekend. First was The Future is Unwritten which I thought was an excellent warts and all documentary on Joe Strummer. Quite an array of contributors (some of whom I was surprised to see - eg Bono). I was particularly taken with Topper Headon who I thought came acro...

I recently bought myself an iMac 24" and am very pleased with it thus far (not game to install Leopard after hearing a lot of negative comments). My only issue is with Apple's schtum policy... just 2 months after I purchased , a new higher spec version is released with a $400 lower price tag - ...

Congrats VG!! She is sure to be a real stunner... cute as a button!

Best: EC - when I hear him doing things like God Give Me Strength, it makes me realise just what an amazing voice he really does have David Bowie - he just makes it all seem so effortless Solomon Burke Van Morrison Peter Gabriel Roy Orbison Adrian Belew - people think he is just a guitarist, but teh...

any suggestions are welcome. I miss reading stuff that's actually interesting outside of school. And I'm rambling, as usual. To bed! Get yourself some Haruki Murakami. A Wild Sheep Chase is a good place to start after which I would recommend The Wind Up Bird Chronicles and Kafka on the Shore... if ...

As a Lab owner,...

What, you are into animal testing and then read books like this to get your jollies??? You are a sick and twisted person Otis!

Everyone always talks about Revolver and Sgt Peppers when rating the quintessential Beatles albums... but aren't we forgetting Rubber Soul? I rate that, along with Revolver, way ahead of Sgt Peppers which to me has not aged nearly as well. Sure it had some wonderful moments, innovative recording tec...

And yet again, a belated birthday geeting... here's to the good oil.

Next time I will try to get in oilier.

This is just something that puzzled me. I was walking home from the train station yesterday when I noticed a poster on an underpass advertising a show at a Sydney music venue (The Basement) on the 11th May featuring the Sensational Alex Harvey Band. Now I know I am getting pretty old and that my mem...

"I possess the right to own one." Hmmm... I always wonder about the validity of that statement... I may be wrong, but isn't the rest of the ammendment referring to a well organised malitia that was intended to defend against the British? "Dictators love gun control...the Germans disar...

Now, if your point is simply that the Anglo-American press is obsessed with events in Anglo-American land, I would argue that they are simply giving folks in A-A land what they want, news about themselves, since, in their eyes, that's the news that makes the world go around. A natural reaction give...

I don't - I just take to myself with the scissors every now and then.

Here, here Mr. Foyle. Life wasted is life wasted. Many Americans are particularly insulated when it comes to this idea. I would hazard to guess that there is probably an entire generation of Iraqis gone due to the war. That is not solely the province of the US of A... it seems to be a trait in angl...

"Of course, there are those who say this "proves" we should get rid of all guns. That is a fantasy, like getting rid of drugs. Banning weapons is the last thing we need at this point. What we need is to expect Professor Plum to be packing, and protecting." What you need is firm l...

And still people will argue that it is their god given right to bear arms and govts on both sides of the fence will sit on their hands doing nothing about it for fear of losing votes.

At first I was going to chastize you all for making a mockery out of his death. But I guess in a way, Vonnegut probably would have wanted it that way. Well, to cite the article to which I linked: ======================= "I will say anything to be funny, often in the most horrible situations,&q...

Or maybe he has taken up permanent residence on Trafalmador.

Tragic news - I am absolutely gutted (you could say, vonnegutted)!!

Have a good one So Lack... I'll be sure to put a few pints down in your honour.

So Blue could be termed your "spa-ing partner"?

Belated I know, but hope you have/had a great one!!

Mr Average , I am glad to see that you have not included Dark Side of the Moon or any Queen albums (for some weird reason they always top the greatest albums of all time lists). I would agree with most (not sure about Trick of the Tail - wasn't a fan of post Gabriel Genesis, and I am pretty sure th...
