How was your day?
This is a semi-drunken ramble, I have had a weird day and I'm sure you don't give a toss but I'm drunk enough not to care.
The milkman failed to deliver the milk this morning and I thought okay maybe he's ill or forgotten or something. But no, later that day I meet one of my neighbours with a similar address and he had the milk delivered to his address by mistake but some yobs had got to it and smashed the milk bottle against his wall.
First chance to pick up this weeks comics and have just read Hellblazer and Planetary. Lou K is correct Planetary #17 is the shit. We finally find out the origin of Jakita Wagner.
I have today finally gotten round to watching the best movie of the year. Kill Bill. I loved it. I fucking loved it. Sonny Chiba is the man.
On the way home I was approached by a Japanese man who was looking for Stonehenge but at first I was prepared for a fight to the death. Kill Bill was still very much in my head at that point.

The sound of fear itself?
Engineer Vic Tandy may have discovered the sound of fear. Whilst in a lab (that was rumoured to be haunted) designing medical equipment he felt uncomfortable and broke out in a cold sweat and thought he saw a gray ghostly shape out of the corner of his eye that disappeared when he turned to look at it. He left the lab terrified.
However upon returning to the lab the next day he noticed that a piece of foil was vibrating up and down, he tracked the source to a standing wave of sound thats intensity reached a peak in the center of the lab where he had been sitting the previous night. The sound produced by a newly installed fan was at a frequency of 19Hz a level below that of human hearing.
Upon further investigation of infrasound he discovered that it can affect people physically even though they cannot hear it. Another supposedly haunted building was discovered to have a standing wave of sound of 19HZ focused in the haunted room.
Spooky or merely science?

US soldiers bulldoze farmers' crops
US soldiers bulldoze farmers' crops
http://news.independent.co.uk/low_res/story.jsp?story=452375&host=3&dir=75
US soldiers driving bulldozers, with jazz blaring from loudspeakers, have uprooted ancient groves of date palms as well as orange and lemon trees in central Iraq as part of a new policy of collective punishment of farmers who do not give information about guerrillas attacking US troops.
Once again I must applaud the actions of the U.S. Soldiers.
You never know what devilish purposes the Iraqi farmers had in mind for their harvest. Do you not know that the juice of citrus fruits mixed with petrol makes napalm. Clearly the US needed to perform a pre-emptive strike again in order to prevent more innocent Americans from dying.

Yoda for Governor?
A recent rambling insane discussion about Yoda and the election in California from the forum at Straight to Hell

To be fair, Yoda hasn't been the same since that awful bust-up with Cybill Shepherd. He took to drinking heavily and gained a lot weight, just barely got it off in time for Phantom Menace. I think a part of him died when she left him.

Yes but I think getting locked up for 30 days following the drunken rampage with his light sabre put him on the straight and narrow. Unfortunately there are new rumours coming out of Holllywood of an addiction to midichlorians that he sates by drinking the blood of young jedis.

Oh, he's getting help for that. Charlie Sheen and Samuel L Jackson drove him to Promises out in Malibu so he could get cleaned up. And George Lucas told him if he was still on the stuff then he was cutting him out of Episode 3 and replacing him Gollum instead.

Now there's another one... did you see his performance in the MTV awards, insulting all his co-workers and Peter Jackson, calling poor Donby a cunt and swearing a lot?

Yeah, I did -- the snotty bastard. Still, they say he's a consumate professional when he's on the set -- although I hear Liv Tyler had to swat his hand off her ass a few times.

Q.I.
Q.I. is a new game show on the BBC. http://www.bbc.co.uk
Hosted by Stephen Fry with a panel of celebrities, points are not necessarily awarded for getting the right answer, but for providing "interesting" answers, usually invoving some high brow trivia about for example, the latin name for buzzards (and how the ancient Greeks thought they had 3 testicles). Points are also deducted for giving the obvious answers, usually wrong eg claiming that no words rhyme with purple.
Sounds a bit lame but it's very very funny. Honest.
Not only does the male european earwig have the largest penis in comparison to its bodysize but it has a spare penis as well.
Japanese scientist discovered this fact when they pinched the back of the male earwig as it was copulating. It was so surprised that it backed off and left it's penis inside the female. However much to the astonishement of the scientists another penis popped out from inside the earwig to replace the one it had lost.

Neal Stephenson's Quicksilver
Quicksilver : Volume One of The Baroque Cycle
Neal Stephenson
In this wonderfully inventive follow-up to his bestseller Cryptonomicon, Neal Stephenson brings to life a cast of unforgettable characters in a time of breathtaking genius and discovery, men and women whose exploits defined an age known as the Baroque.
Daniel Waterhouse possesses a brilliant scientific mind -- and yet knows that his genius is dwarfed by that of his friends Isaac Newton, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, and Robert Hooke. He rejects the arcane tradition of alchemy, even as it is giving birth to new ways of understanding the world.
Jack Shaftoe began his life as a London street urchin and is now a reckless wanderer in search of great fortune. The intrepid exploits of Half-Cocked Jack, King of the Vagabonds, are quickly becoming the stuff of legend throughout Europe.
Eliza is a young woman whose ingenuity is all that keeps her alive after being set adrift from the Turkish harem in which she has been imprisoned since she was a child.
Daniel, Jack, and Eliza will traverse a landscape populated by mad alchemists, Barbary pirates, and bawdy courtiers, as well as historical figures including Samuel Pepys, Ben Franklin, and other great minds of the age. Traveling from the infant American colonies to the Tower of London to the glittering courts of Louis XIV, and all manner of places in between, this magnificent historical epic brings to vivid life a time like no other, and establishes its author as one of the preeminent talents of our own age.

Bad dreams
I have a recurring dream that I get about once a year in which my children have died.
I dream that I am walking past a street in my local town and I break down in tears because I remember that this is the spot where I crashed my car when I was drunk and my children who were in the back were killed. I wake up distraught, convinced my kids are dead until I realise that I never had any children. This dream affected me deeply and I never drive down this street anymore.

Great foreign films of the week
Nine Queens is a great film, somewhat similar to Mamet's House of Games but in my opinion superior. Two conmen who just happen to meet are trying to make a score from the sale of nine rare stamps the 'Nine Queens' of the title. If you haven't seen it then I insist you rent out from your local video store.
Goodbye Lenin! is another great film. A German comedy and no that is not an oxymoron. Set just after the Berlin Wall has come down in East Germany a young man whose mother has just come out of a coma must pretend that they are still living in a communist country because the shock of the truth might kill her.
