Tuenesday

Pints of Kilkenny at Paddy Maguire's with my old school chum CS2. Malaysian Snek Kut Potato Stick Tomato Flavour. Australia beating South Africa two-zip in the Twenty20 cricket "series" and the emergence of David Warner. My weekly dose of "One Life Left". Coach Dungy retiring with a stunning record at the Bucks/Colts and 100% of his integrity intact. Sequential lunches of salmon steak at Sakae (God's own fish!). Learning that Christopher Boyce, the avian-monikered half of true-espionage tale "The Falcon And The Snowman", escaped from prison, robbed 17 banks and, before he was recaptured, intended to fly himself to Russia! A preview of Clint Eastwood's "Gran Torino" - powerful, riveting cinema - with PB, CM and his periodical's web site guy, S. My weekly dose of "Flight Of The Conchords". Commencing 2008's "Doctor Who: Ghosts Of India" by Mark Morris (Doc Ten and Ms Noble in a fix with...Gandhi?). Watching a "longplay" of C64 arcade adventure "Dan Dare" being conquered - for nostalgia's sake and because PG sent me the linky-dink. Die, Mekon, die!


Overdue observation: I'm so sick of the T-shirt plus keffiyeh-worn-as-scarf trend. It makes about as much sense as putting an ashtray on a motorbike. If you're cold, wear an overshirt or thin jacket. Just trying to be "fashionable"? You look ridiculous.
