Burning Thursday List
14th Jan 2010 · · LinkNot sure why but so far January can only be described as 'Car' Month.
Tire flats, tire changes, flat batteries, breaking into a car (legally I might add, we owned it) replacing batteries, replacing seat belts and MOT's it really has got on my nerves.
One such event the beginning of this week involved me dropping of my car to a garage around the corner from work for a MOT. After that a trudge through the snow back to work would be in order. I wasn't looking forward to that part, but needs must when the devil's balls etc etc.
So upon approaching the garage in my car (all wheel drive I'll have you know) I came up behind a lady in a smallish car (I forget the name) that was stuck trying to get up the hill to the garage, wheel spinning like a good one she finally gave up and pulled over to the side. I passed her and approached and pulled onto the front of said garage.
The mechanic was on the phone so I stood outside his office, glanced at him making sure he had seen me and did what everyone now does.
Whips out phone to check 'stuff'.
When up comes the lady in the wheel spinning car.
"Can I go in front of you please.." gesturing towards the Mechanic's office.
I was a bit surprised but paused as I had a feeling an explanation was coming.
"Technically I was hear first I just couldn't get my car up the hill to the garage and had to park it half way down the hill.
I was shocked, memories of speeches of 'second man on the moon' flooded through my head. I started to get enraged, but no, keep calm, remember this is the new you, calm cool collected and nasty.
The brain starts a firing, and out it comes "Go ahead, burn in hell you will though.".
And I walked over to the other side of the garage looking at my phone.
I could feel her stare.
Then the best thing in the world happened, the mechanic came out, walked past her and served me first.
I could hear the blood boiling.
Hence forth for the list of lists.
1 - Buffalo buffalo etc
2 - Frere Jacques on a phone

Jacques might be back?
10th Jan 2010 · · LinkOh please no say it isn't so.
Jacques Villeneuve Wants to get back into F1.
....I am still working extremely hard to get back in F1 this season. So hard you would not believe it."
I really hope not, personally I never rated him all that much, he only won when his car seemed superior, and I agree that is the same for some of the other drivers.
Time will tell, but I think he would already have a seat if he was going to get one.

Best Toll Bridge Ever Thursday List
7th Jan 2010 · · LinkHaving recently been up to Liverpool for a wedding (Hi Mr and Mrs Willmott) we found the journey back a bit treacherous and very traffic heavy, so with Tom Tom at hand I promptly programmed in to avoid the crash laden Motorway (highway for the US fans).
After a bit of twists and turns we came across a 'Toll Bridge Road'.
After a bit of a moan and groan I decided to take it as it will no doubt save me time.
What I came across was possibly the Best Toll Bridge Ever. Total price to pass the bridge, 12p.
Yup that's right 12p, 25p if you want an all day ticket (this confused me surely it should be 23p?).
Just 12p for a toll bridge, and it was manned, non of this technology melarky of throwing things into a bin and the barrier opens.
No this was manned and didn't have a barrier, just a polite sign before the kiosk asking you nicely to stop.
Best Toll Bridge Ever

A they say end on a vid:
Alexandra Burke has really impressed me, and apparently her new album will have 5 songs specifically record for singles rllease which is good news for Alexandra fans. Personally I find all the songs very catchy. Although I don't think I'm going to start wearing broken heels just to prove her wrong.
Well I'm off to research what incriminating photos Flavio Briatore has to get off his ban.

Extended Version of Prince of Bel Air
It's just not right. (lyrics follow)
And the lyrics:
Now, this is a story all about how
My life got flipped-turned upside down
And I liked to take a minute
Just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel Air
In west Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground is where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And all shootin some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys
Who were up to no good
Startin making trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
She said 'You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel Air'
I begged and pleaded with her day after day
But she packed my suite case and send me on my way
She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket.
I put my walkman on and said, 'I might as well kick it'.
First class, yo this is bad
Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass.
Is this what the people of Bel-Air Living like?
Hmmmmm this might be alright.
I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror
If anything I can say this cab is rare
But I thought 'Now forget it' - 'Yo homes to Bel Air'
I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
And I yelled to the cabbie 'Yo homes smell ya later'
I looked at my kingdom
I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel Air

20th Aug 2010 · · LinkAfternoon all, Jesus tees off first hitting his ball straight into the water hazard. He simply walks across the water and hits his ball just short of the green. When Moses tees off, he hits his ball into the same water hazard. So, he parts the water and puts his golf ball just shy of the hole. As the old man tees off he hits his ball with tremendous power, but hooks it badly. It bounces off a tree and hits the caddy shack. It then rolls down a path to a pond where a frog eats the ball and swims to the other side of the pond. Suddenly an eagle swoops down and grabs the frog and flies off. As the eagle is flying over the green the frog drops the ball. The ball drops directly into the hole for a hole in one. Moses turns to Jesus and says "I hate playing golf with your Dad."

Almost a quarter of drivers think it is acceptable to speed if they think the limit is too low - Tick that's me.
Drivers still distinguish between 'ordinary, safe speeding drivers' and 'dangerous speeding drivers' - Tick That's me too.
Motorists caught racing through motorway roadworks ended up being hit by more than £5m worth of speeding tickets last year. - Not been done on this, thankfully.
Of all the speeding offences 90+% are fixed penally notices. - Tick, got done by this.
Thought of the week.
Apple is very closed, they are right, everyone else is wrong (suppliers). However it was noted on a website that Apple have sent an update out for OS X that fixes graphics issues.
This is pretty much due in part to Valve releasing games for the Mac. It's further rumoured that the uptake of the games is astronomical.
Nothing Like a shit load of money to make Apple stand to attention.
