“Don’t Tell Me About the Press. I know Exactly Who Reads the Papers.”

Kalli is sitting opposite me at the kitchen table watching bits of episodes from “Yes Prime Minister” when this one comes up. Sheer brilliance!

“Hacker: Don’t tell me about the press. I know exactly who reads the papers: the Daily Mirror is read by people who think they run the country; The Guardian is read by people who think they ought to run the country; The Times is read by people who actually do run the country; the Daily Mail is read by the wives of the people who run the country; the Financial Times is read by people who own the country; The Morning Star is read by people who think the country ought to be run by another country; and The Daily Telegraph is read by people who think it is.

Sir Humphrey: Prime Minister, what about the people who read The Sun?

Bernard: Sun readers don’t care who runs the country, as long as she’s got big tits.”

Our dog Boscoe might very well be the kindest dog in the world. We love him very much.

Happy Halloween!

Sorry But I Have Been Busy Elsewhere

I do not seem to be publishing stuff here very often anymore. This is my first blog and the one I hold most dear. It is just that I have branched out. I now also, apart from my pedagogical blog, hold a food blog where I am just about to write about tonights dinner. Cheerio!

The Simple Things in Life

I have 48 carefully selected RSS feeds. A lot of work-related stuff, some comics, and blogs like Boing Boing, Cynical-C Blog, Swissmiss and what have you. I am quite good at keeping up with it all, and I check everything out daily, even though it adds up to far over a hundred posts. Where I am getting with this though, is making the point of where my heart lies when it comes to my feeds. Fact is that if I had to take all of them away but one, I would keep “The FAIL blog”. The childishness in the humour of this stuff is just absolute dog’s bollocks (to use a crude idiom which I incidentally just learnt). The here posted clip from the FAIL-blog, I watched four times over, laughing out loud.

PS If there was one more feed I was allowed to keep, was I to loose all the rest, it would be “Cyanide and Happiness“.

In the meantime keep looking out for more of those pictures and videos of owned, pwnd and failed moments.
