Oh no. The whole world is going mad.
Seen someone from afar you find attractive? Well these crazy people will find out lots about that person, and then arrange a "coincidental" meeting for you with him/her...
Further proof, if it were needed that the web, and the wrold is a very scary place.
and check out their rates too... that's almost even more scary!

The Register has a story about the launch of the new .me.uk domain name.
moppy.me.uk doesn't work - it would have to be moppy.us.uk, which is just plain confusing as it looks half american.... I've always thought having your own name as your domain name is a bit of a crazy idea anyway....

Now people may think a sitcom about Ozzy Osbourne to be a rather absurd idea, but actually, his family are quite interesting. There's Ozzie with this horrendously thick Brummie accent, and yet he and his kids live in a *huge* mansion, and the kids are like the poshest you could imagine... it's all "oh yes, this is daddy's such and such giotar, and this is the snake he keeps to practice biting the head off...." etc...
Well, there we go, Adam Ant, probably my first pop idol (I wnated to wear funky face paint) has been submitted to a psychiatric hospital following his gun-wavin episode in London at the weekend. Here's an Official statement.

I am, apparently most like Legolas. I always thought of myself more like Strider, but that's probably wishful thinking. I think Mum said she thought I'd make a good Boromir which is a bit disheartening, but I've often played main charcters who die before the end of the first half (eg Riff in West Side Story). Anyhow, Elves are cool, even if in the film they do (in Poppy's words) "all look like they're from some Timotei advert".
Actually, I can't wait for The Two Towers. I wanna see some Ents! Maybe I'm more like an Ent...

Gah. Just when I think I've cracked a joke about Bush (see below), His mother says the same thing.

added permalinks. (The little exclamation marks after date). They link to individual posts. eternally. Also changed the colour of the "current" link in the RH column to be the same as the rest fo them, but think I preferred it dark anyway.

All the news about Drink and drugs in the royal circle only continues to confirm my own feelings about the royals... that they're essentially subject to the same obsessions, desires etc as the rest of us, but are supposed to have a greater responsibility to deny those feelings...
I guess that's how it should be, and public opinion doesn't seem to be too anti-harry atm, but it always bothers e how the press make such a big deal out of this kind of thing.
I mean, that time I got horrendously drunk on Sangria in Majorca was never mentioned to my parents, let alone the press...

We might be joining a gym - how scary is that?
