Now just how am I supposed to go to a dentist ever again after this!

Now just how am I supposed to go to a dentist ever again after this!

Yeah, It’s monday and I have the day to myself, Elly has to work so I’ve got the house to myself. Now what am I going to do with myself?
Well I’ve already caught up on all my blog and news reading, my Google reader has no unread feeds left for the first time since I switched from Newsgator.
although it seems to not want to allow me to add more feeds which is odd cause I know I don’t have as many as the likes of Robert Scoble but I can’t add anymore now
From my reading frenzy this morning, I see Grandad has Blognapped Granny’s Blog to wish her a happy birthday, the oul romantic!
Well at least he didn’t head off tourist hunting for the day
Gizmodo seems to be getting less about the gadgets and more about the gags, these days, so much so that I hardly seem to read it anymore, could it be that the volume of posts is costing them quality? Surely not.
And Finally, over on the Blather Zeitgeist, Damien has posted a brilliant short film from Blur Studios, very funny and well worth the bandwidth and time it takes to view it.
So am I going to mow the lawn and fix the Media Centre PC today or just laze around the house all day and do nothing, It’s my day off after all.

It’s true, just ask Elly. So when I realised that I needed to update my wardrobe a bit for the impending honeymoon, I got into my usual sulk at the thoughts of what was in store.
Still at least this time I don’t have to go looking for T-shirts as well, thanks to T-Shirt Hell. I have ordered off them before to check the size and quality etc. so I just logged in and bought a load of great T’s in no time. Job done. Well, except for the trousers, shoes, Shirts and Jackets that I apparently “need” :p
There are some designs on there site that I would never wear for obvious taste reasons, (in fact some would say they are not suitable for public consumption) but they are all funny and they’re great quality T’s as well.
Still it got me to thinking about which of T-shirt hell’s shirts would most suit my favourite ‘local’ blogger.
and finally, the one that I think is probably gonna get me in trouble
So have I got it right or have I just seriously insulted my new wife? time and the comments will tell


Last Friday night myself the wife and a few friends and collegues headed out to see The Simpsons movie. The trailers we’ve all seen on television all gave me a laugh so it was only natural to go see the movie.
The film was a laugh from start to finish, there was a little bit of a lag in the middle of the film,which was just as well, we all need time to munch the popcorn and slurp on the ‘Big gulp’.
The story, for me wasn’t enough to carry the movie, the jokes were not enough to carry the movie, but somehow, all together, it works.
In my opinion, this movie missed the oppurtunity to do to animated movies what it did for Animated TV Series when it started all those years ago. Lets not forget The Simpsons paved the way for other shows, Futurama, Family Guy & American Dad to name a few. These shows owe a dept to Matt Groening and The Simpsons.
This first movie, in what one can expect to be a string of sequels, has two issues the sequels will have to deal with. The first is the weight of expectations, mine will not be as high for the next movie. The second is completely at the mercy of the marketing department, don’t show all the funniest jokes from the movie in your trailers, it left me feeling cheap and used!
This is a good movie, I will be going to see the inevitable sequels but I won’t expect to see anything more than an extended episode of a funny animated TV show.

So the PS3 launched, a game console that costs over €600! I have been a Sony fan but now I’m cured
is your still searching for a cure this should do it. Thanks to Kevin Burton for this gem.
