Wooaah its a bit windy and a half today isn't it. Earthquakes and now hurricanes, whats going on I ask you? Generally these freak occurances tend to originate from Dudley, so that may give you some clue. Talking of freak occurances and the occult, its Halloween soon. Of course to all us UK folk that means pretty much nothing, apart from the fact they'll probably be showing John Carpenter's Halloween on BBC1 at some stupid time...just checked and actually its Halloween 5 thats on. So for all of you want a genuinely terrifying if not to say stupefying experience check out my 60 second horror film, Pure Garage. This was last years entry to the urbanchillers competition. Its in Quicktime format, so the dirty-iMac brigade can enjoy it too, but for those of you (like me) who rely on dial-up i'd go make yourself a cup of tea or a margerita while its loading up as even 60 seconds takes an eternity.
Unfortunately, the spazcat-scripted entry I was hoping to produce for this year's fright-fest hasn't come to fruition due to lack of time and resources (most notably a lack of short-notice scream-queen.) The casting couch is now officially open for business for paranoidandroid films London department, so would-be thespians please make yourself comfortable. Thursday, October 24, 2002
Ok, well I'm even more penniless, but things are looking up slightly and I should be doing some inane under-paid temp job before the week is over. As far as this under-nourished blog goes I've added a blogrolling feature to the left hand navigational bit, (this is a list, or roll if you like, of the 21st century's most powerful message-medium, the BLOG) so if anybody out there wants their blog added just e-mail me and if you want to add this lime green monstrosity to your blogroll then the link's there on your left also. I'm also now locatable by tube map so confused japanese tourists can come and point their cameras at this blog and wonder if its Nelson's Blog or the Blogs of Parliment or somesuch national landblog. I'll still be an honoury member of the Birmingham Bloggers of course, as an expatriate brummy I feel it is important to stay in touch with my roots, my culture, so I don't become cocknecised.

Well its been a whole, long, dry week without interweb access, but you can all relax now, I'm back in the web-groove. Managed to get my pc hooked up here at Spazzy Towers eventually, so now I can return to my position as benevolent dictator over my message board. Life here in the big twon of London is good, although very much a paupers meagre existence, with no-one as yet begging to employ my considerable talents. Pimping the 'cat out will hardly bring much money in, and no-one's gonna want to pay for any of my organs, and my english is too good to work in a fast food restaurant, so i'm a bit stuck. Please e-mail me with offers of employment. Thankyou.

OK. Off to the big city to start my new life as some kind of whore tomorrow morning. Will be out of e-mail and interweb range for a while, so you'll have to be without both my actual and virtual presence. Hope to regain interconnectivity sometime next week. Until then, I shall be bending Spazcat to my will, and teaching those cockneys a thing or two about things.
Cheers to everyone who made it to either of my leaving celebrations, apologies for being a dribbling incomprehensible wreck on friday (through booze) and saturday (hangover and the onset of some kind of dirty sickness). I managed to get to meet, if only fleetingly in some cases, many of the characters and reprobates that make this fair city of Birmingham the place it is.....so until i'm back, y'll be good y' hear. Until I see you again that is and you hate me for my air of smug superiority over the rest of the country and pity me for the price i have to pay for beer. Laters. |
