Desolation

Unfortunately I haven't had the internet in my control today [Which only rests more hope on the fact that we will be recieving wireless broadband soon!] so this is a late and very scarce blog. First up, as you know, is news. Last night I went out to celebreate the end of my friends teenagehood, which means the big 20. She did mention something I thought was completely true though; a lot of the aura going around now is that 40 is still a young age to be, and by the time we reach 40 we will be even younger than the 40 year olds of today. In some ways this is good, which includes the obvious, but it could be a bad thing. Imagine people all lived to 100. We're struggling as we are to find space to fit everybody, and this problem is even worse in third world countries. I personally hope the age thing finds a perfect balance, and soon.

Off of that depressing note, I managed to discover Pear Cider again! It's been nearly 5 months since my first and last taste, and I must say it's as good as ever. Anybody out there wanting to try it, check your local Wetherspoons or Lloyds, it's called Kopperburg and it's a great price £2.25 for a big bottle!

If you remember my first post, I chucked up some photos from my travelling on some site, and now if you follow that link you can see some photos from Montreal. I'm getting good comments even though I was literally an amateur, having purchased my first camera in New York when I was out there.

Music time now. Having not had access to the internet and the brilliant Pandora I have been cut off from new music, and have had to rely on the good stuff I have in my collection. I rediscovered some good stuff on Snow Patrol's album Eyes Open, including Set Fire To The Third Bar featuring Martha Wainwright. No idea who she is, but she adds some individual style to the music.

Video. I am bringing you not one, but two videos of the same sort. Both hilariously funny, both from the great show Whose Line Is It Anyway [Bear with me with all the colours, you'll understand what I'm doing in the future sometime] Without any further delays, here they both are:




And would you believe that just by looking at those clips, it led me to find a whole load of other clips from the show. Seriously, if you want to crack up with laughter, go watch that stuff!

No picture today as I'm not on my own PC, so expect an extra helping tomorrow. I'm sure though with my bounty of videos you won't be that bothered :D

Before I sign off with my link of the day, just a couple of things to share with you for those who care. First off, the next season of Lost [Don't worry, I'm not spoiling any plot so you may read on] will be split into two sections. First 6 episodes back to back for the frist 6 weeks, then a 13 week break before going the long stretch with 16-18 episodes playing week after week with no repeats of breaks in the schedule . I think this is fantastic news as us fans will never have to wonder when the next new episode is going to be which was hell last year, but a lot of complainers out there are crying over the vacation in the middle. And along with that, JJ Abrams will be fully on board for the next season.
