The Devil!

As Ignorant Kiwi keeps telling me, advertising is the worst industry in the world to work in, as it's run by Satan himself and therefore I must be one of Satan's little minions. Honestly, give a boy a job at Fresh and Wild and he thinks he's next in line for a sainthood.

Anyway, I only work on the periphery of advertising, and I agree that it's a fairly horrible industry to be in, largely populated by some self important twats who really need to go away and pull their heads out of their sphincters. Also, some of the commercials they produce are pure toilet - Squidgey Niece regularly produces more creative endeavours from her nappy.

So it's always a nice surprise when you see something like this. Original, uplifting, and it almost makes me hate Visa less than usual.

Oh no, it's happening

When I Was 21...
My favourite movie was "Dr Strangelove" - I'd just finished a film studies degree and had the highest of the brows when it came to the cinema.
The music in my CD player was Coldplay, the youngest and funkiest new band around.
If I was going to drink wine, it was the cheapest one I could find in Asda. Otherwise it was lager all the way. I could drink a skinful and still bounce out of bed the next morning ready for work.

Last night...
I asked the Kiwi if I could turn over from what he was watching, to "Shallow Hal" on Channel 5.
I switched my iPod on and The Corrs came blasting back at me.
I spent £15 on a bottle of wine, drank half of it, and woke up with a hangover.

I am OLD

Thought of the Day.

"How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is/To have a thankless child!" King Lear.

Yeah, Shakespeare, whatever.

More on the Pancake Theme.

There was a man in Germany who ate so many pancakes that he exploded. True story. Hasn't put me off pancakes though.

Just to share my general dissatisfaction with the world, take this as how I will answer any and all questions today:
