AOLTWLGFF

Yes I know a damn long acronym that one. Okay so last night was the end of a company wide film festival. They showed Hedwig and the Angry Inch and I was joined by Jacs and the lovely Mr Miller. I’d seen it before but neither of the others had. I must say I found it much easier to follow this time around and was less disturbed to see Michael Pitt from Dawson’s Creek playing a gay christian rock kid.
Davo has had the pleasure of meeting John Cameron Mitchell who is currently working on a new project entitled The Sex Film Project.
So all in all it was a nice night. A few drinks afterwards was going to be at Vespa Lounge but they were closed (too few girlz or something) so we ended up at First Out. I haven’t been there for ages. Left earlyish and wandered through town with Jacs over the newly refurbished Hungerford Bridge and gazed at possibly the best view of London you can get without working in Canary Wharf 🙂

Now I have nothing against blondes…

A girl came skipping home from school one day. “Mommy, Mommy,” she yelled,

“we were counting today, and all the other kids could only count to four,

but I counted to 10. See? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!”

Very good,” said her mother.

“Is it because I’m blonde, Mommy?”

“Yes, it’s because you’re blonde.”

The next day the girl came skipping home from school. “Mommy, Mommy,” she

yelled, “we were saying the alphabet today, and all the other kids could

only say it to D, but I said it to G. See? A, b, c, d, e, f, g!”

“Very good,” said her mother.

“Is it because I’m blonde, Mommy?”

“Yes, it’s because you’re blonde.”

The next day the girl came skipping home from school. “Mommy, Mommy,” she

yelled, “we were in gym class today, and when we showered, all the other

girls had flat chests, but I have these!” And she lifted her tank top to

reveal a pair of 36Cs.

“Very good,” said her embarrassed mother.

“Is it because I’m blonde, mommy?”

“No, it’s because you’re 25.

Cheers for that Kellster!

gay day

Okay so it’s not Disney World but, Alton Towers is a good second choice for those of us in the UK.
queercompany.com and jaketm.org are organising it for Sunday 20 July, turning it into a Pink Queer Day. Not sure if that is with or without the consent of Alton Towers 😉

Major Fraud

Now I don’t normally watch who wants to be a millionaire but this evening ITV1 was showing a ‘special’. They showed a programme called Major Fraud which outlined the case against Major Charles Ingram along with his wife Diana and Tecwen Whittock.
It was cringeworthy watching it and I’m not sure if it is normally that bad.
Benylin get the award for best product placement in a commercial break though. Considering the first advert in this was for their cough medicine 🙂

I’m tense

Well according to my physio I am anyway. I have a massage at work once a week so I shouldn’t be that tense. He seems to know what he’s on about though as I can now walk again – which is a good thing. Back on Saturday morning for more though. Plus I have homework – I mean come on!

more sydney photo’s

Not mine this time – I’m sure you have had enough of those already 😉 The lovely Gary has however finally gotten around to sharing his pics of Sydney and Melbourne.

safari 2

ooh ooh I’m excited Apple have released Beta 2 of Safari and now it has the one thing I was missing from using Camino – tabbed browsing. Oh and they have also thrown in auto form filling and password management – Genius!

cheers davo

I was missing Davo’s posts recently – nice to see he is back on form. He reckons the hot marine of the week award goes to Lance Corporal Carey Floyd I reckon though there is something to be had for anonymity so here is my vote for hottest marine of the week – he’s anonymous though 🙁

My back is officially sore

I was in so much pain today I went to see the doctor who has referred me to an osteopath or physiotherapist. She doesn’t care which so long as I get it sorted. She also recommended lots of pain killers :o)
So I dutifully went and purchased extra strength ibuprofen and paracetemol. I took two of each before reading the label that says only take one. Ah well my back still hurt so I guess one would have not done a thing.
If this is what getting old is like I better start living a little faster so I die a little younger.

spam spam spam

AOL Time Warner has not had a lot of good news recently. So it makes a change that today AOL is in the news for taking spammers to court. Personally I was so sick of the 14 spam mails I received on monday morning I went and got a paid account with spamcop.net I have to say it is a great filtering system and rather than just deleting the mails you get to report the abuse to relevant isp’s.
On the subject of spam here’s a list of allegedly the top ten from 2002 (compiled by surf control)

Free adult site passwords
Low price drugs (Viagra)
Refinance your mortgage
Nigerian confidential money transfer
Tiny remote control car
Best online casino
#1 Pasta pot
Get out of credit card debt
Meet singles in your area
Copy DVDs in one click

What’s your most despised spam subject line?
