Blog, blog, bloggy. Got a feeling, sweet like bloggy

There's a new hsbc advert, where they mention argentina. And penguins. Adverts don't choke on their lies

Most over-used phase of the day

The death of Baudrillard is not happening.

Can anyone see the photo of me?

The one in the top corner, of a monkey in glasses. It used to be there. Wheelio said it looked like Gandhi. You know it. Where is it?

If not, I might find a new picture. Again, suggestions in the comment section please- and it's not going to be a photo of me, so don't bother suggesting them.

At elwheelio's request, I hate:

A- Alex Ferguson, Andrew Castle, Alexis Petridis, Ariel Sharon, Alex Zane
B- Brian May, Bill Archer, Blaney, Ben Elton
C- Chris Evans,

Q- Q
R- Rupert Murdoch, Robert Kilroy Silk, Rob Newman
S- Sami Chakrabati, Steve Jones
T- Tony Blair
U-
V-
W-
X-
Y-
Z-Zoe Williams

The internet's playing up, so I'll leave the list there... for now. Gosh, it's taken a while to compile, and I'm meant to be working. I've got a lot of hate to give. I think most of the list is self-explanatory. I was going to include Princess Diana, but I don't hate her, just her fake-immortality. Erm. And I was going to include all the fuckwitted people who supported the Iraq War and still professed to some version of socialism- Aaranovitch, Hitchens et al. But realised if I were to include them for that reason, my list would have to grow exponentially to include a host of others. People can use the words 'Saddam' and 'gas'over and over again, but this is what the war was about.

And Q, is a smug four dimensional being fromthe Q continuum in Star Trek.

And Lindsey German does my head in. I know, no solidarity here.

Any ideas?

I can't think of anything to blog about. Well bored. There's absolutely nothing going on, thanks to revision. Even the news looks shit. News stories include the leader of the Tories being a Tory, Princess Diana has died in a car crash, Craig Bellamy's a bit mad. I hoped this story about a WWF wrestler would be better, but I was wrong.

I guess there's news about nurses getting paid fuck all. Now, if I understand economics- which I don't -nurses are effectively getting a pay-cut because house/retail prices are going up. Now, I wasn't aware that nurses were responsible for buying fancy houses and living fantastic lives of conumption. That's why the government introduced key worker housing, because these things are beyond their reach. Surely taxing those that pay stupendous amounts for houses/gym memberships/plasma televisions/cocaine, the super-earners like Sven, would reduce their power to push house-prices beyond everybody else. It might even subsidise the pay that public sector workers deserve. Big Gordon Brown seems to be pissing on the ashes of the hospitals that are being shut down, and trying to drive an even fatter wedge between his beloved corporate bum-chums and the worker's shoulders on which his party stands. I might even take a break from revision to do some of this.

Anyone want to suggest a topic for my next blog entry? This could be like, interactive. Yeah. You can leave an anonymous post, if you don't want me to hunt you down and spit on your daughters. No, I'm not sure what I meant by that either.

Steve 'Barmy' Harmison's Top Ten Albums

Because El Wheelio has made a ten, I want to make a better ten. I'm like that. That's how I became a Test Cricketer

Black Grape - It's Great When You're Straight.... Yeah
Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense
Radiohead - The Bends
The Clash - London Calling
Marvin Gaye - By Jove, What's Going On?
Curtis Mayfield - Curtis Live
Stevie Wonder - Innervisions
Arcade Fire - The one I've got
Flaming Lips - Soft Bulletin
Oasis- Definitely Maybe
Extras:
Alabama 3 - Exile on Coldharbour Lane
2 Many Djs - Does it have an album title?
Stone Roses - Stone Roses
Pink Floyd - Wish you were Here

There we go. It's not authoritative. And now I fear I've forgotten someone. Like this time tomorrow, the words "We get it almost every night, while the moon is big and bright" will seep into my cerebral cortex and I'll stand up in the lecture and shout. "Oh shit. I forgot Toploader."

Bye
