This lad is trying to get his personal posessions down to 100 Things. I was thinking about trying the same thing, with an “excluding Books/CDs/DVDs” caveat, but I’m not sure it’d be that hard. I might list 100 possessions, and see if I think I could cope.

Somebody somewhere is writing this paring right now. I can only hope that they do, and then Ryan’s prediction comes true.

Copright-violation-tastic, but still: the complete text of Alan Moore’s performance piece. Worth a read, and I’ll probably find it handy to refer to, but if you can get hold of the CD, that’s much better.

This, and the next one, particularly need to be heard to get them right – they’re very rhythmic pieces and the formatting on these does them no favours at all. Still, handy reference if I need to quote them at some point.

It’s a dreadful armpit of a place, is Highbury. But scratch the surface…

If you can listen to this, and not be moved, not understand why he was irreplacable, then you are not human and I would thank you to leave the planet at once. (Link good for seven days. Use it. Yes, you.)

Obvious gag, I guess, but I still laughed at this review.

These are beautiful, amd several of them are even practical. Someone get me a set at once.

Well fuck me running. A Tory MP has done something that means I’d vote for him like a shot, if given a chance. Well done, David Davis. I may disagree with most of his party’s platform, but on this I agree entirely, and I applaud the bold move.

Good fucking grief. Insert Orwell references here. Is there any English speaking nation I can get into that isn’t getting increasingly fucking Big Brother, please?

A senior government official says: “There exists a database of Americans, who, often for the slightest and most trivial reason, are considered unfriendly, and who, in a time of panic, might be incarcerated.” This may be as many as 8 million people.

Interesting map showing the most popular social networks around the world. I’m not sure I’ve ever heard of some of them.

It looks like these people now deliver to my place, which rather expands my options in a takeaway. Result!

I can’t decide if this would be hell or something I could cope with quite well.

I own a dozen or so of them, and if I can get them of emusic, I might start working my way through some of the others – I tend to listen to jazz in the summer, and this might be a fun way to find some new stuff.

I appear to have been mugged by a musical toy. Still, this ought to be fun.

I don’t really care, except that there’s a line there at the end that says “European dates to be announced shortly”. All digital extremeties firmly crossed…
