"You smell like Shat"

"Citron, black pepper, and cedar create refreshingly clear top notes, layered over warm vanilla, white musk and sandalwood base notes"
"Casual yet commanding cologne spiked with freshness and sensuality"

more pertinantly: will it disguise the smell of sitting in your bedroom for a week with the curtains closed and does it come with instructions on how to talk to women?

Quick Note

I'm loving the new Ariel Pink song (and awesome artwork)
Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti - Round and Round

The Tomorrow People

I got quite excited the other day when The Advisory Circle record I had pre-ordered arrived.


The first vinyl to be issued on Ghost Box, one of my favourite record labels. Ghost Box are purveyors of creepy soundtracks to imaginary sci-fi movies, informational jingles, themes from half-forgotten 70's children's programmes, haunting vintage electronics; all wrapped up in perfectly designed artwork.

some short clips taken from their website:

The Advisory Circle - Mind How You Go Now
Belbury Poly - The Hidden Door
The Focus Group -Bromiding Place
Roj - Bongo Workout

It's that guy #1

New regular feature! Whereby if i see an actor who's been in more than one thing i'll post about it here.

Number 1: There's the ass from Ghostbusters with Ben Linus.

"HI I'M FROM THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY, SHUT THIS SHIT DOWN"

Smooth and Sticky

Hold on to your knickers ladies, it's that silver haired, husky voiced stud Michael McDonald:
"WOAHHH YEAH, I'M GONNA TAKE YOU FOR A DRINK NEXT WEDNESDAY OOOOOOOOOOO"

I used to think old Mickey boy made music for brainless housewives who dreamt of having an affair, how wrong I was. He is the Sultan of Sensuality, the Pheromone Extractor, the Harbinger of Sex.

Light some candles and hop on your washing machine, here's Michael:

Humpphh

This has got to be the worst blog I've ever read. I mean look at the title of this post, what's that meant to mean? It's got no relevance. I just couldn't think of anything. The writing is godawful and I'm pretty sure I've got a problem with overusing commas.

Let's take a look at the last post I made. November last year. It was going well, video of "Africa", then I started writing some bollocks afterwards. Probably ruined the good feeling you had after watching the video. Who am I talking to there? Nobody. See? All over the shop.

Anyhow, I heard someone say "d'you know what i mean?" earlier and realised how much that phrase fucked me off. It's always at the end of some banal sentence like "Oh, I like donkeys but I wouldn't name my child after one, d'you know what I mean?" or "He had no right to use my pencil sharpener without asking me first, d'you know what I mean?" OF COURSE I KNOW WHAT YOU FUCKING MEAN, YOU'RE THE STINKING IDIOT HERE, NOT ME. Ahhhhhhhhh. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

I guess I'm in a bad mood today.

In praise of Toto's "Africa"

I love that song.

When the chorus kicks in, I could be high-fiving a baboon.

or doing reps with a prairie dog whilst pointing at a zebra, as if to say, "you're next zebra".

An Officer and a Gentleman and the Philips 180 Portable Record Player

I've become obsessed with this record player.



I imagine it as lady and me as the tramp. I'm ghost to it's Demi Moore. In fact it's the lady lead in any Swayze movie.

Nobody puts the Philips 180 portable record player in the corner.

Note to the fucker who outbid me on ebay: I hope you're happy with that chip on the clasp and the dent on the corner. prick.
