Sex & the City: The Movie

2009-02-27T15:33:00.001-08:00

Ugh. I was made to watch that film. It was dreadful. One of them ate too much pudding and shat herself. That's not even a lie! One of them tried to spice up her relationship by making sushi ... and burying her naked self in a heap of it... and waiting for the guy to come back and dig her out. Ugh.

" The role of religious does seem to me extremely difficult, I certainly wouldn't want to deny that religion has a place and although I could be described as an atheist I don't think that would be an accurate description; because I really do believe that ritual and ceremony, and having a sort of space where you're prepared to say " don't know" but which gives you a chance to express gratitude or humility or regret. All those aspects of religion I really like, but the trouble is that some people don't like them or don't see feel any need for them and therefore it seems to me absolutely, totally wrong that legislation that has to bind everybody [...] the rule of law seems to me something that is far more important than any religious dogma. It seems completely wrong that religion should be given an enormous part in legislation. And I talk with passion about this because I'm involved and have been in the debate on euthanasia [...] anyone that says that human life is a gift from God is simply talking irrelevantly because not everyone believes that, so how can their particular belief be brought in to justify legally blocking any attempt at assisted suicide [...] often people who are religious very often have extremely good and acceptable moral views but they have no special access in a matter like that to what would be a good and sound basis of legistlation. Which is a moral matter."

There's a toilet paper advert that has a labrador puppy as its sort of... mascot... tarting around playing with toilet paper... being cute. In Britain the brand is called Andrex, in Germany it is called Hakle. Andrex sounds more appropriate for a labrador puppy to my dumb British ears.

I love Daniel Wood. Daniel Wood is my love.

Daniel says:

David.. says:

they're so clever that they're retards

its like the end of scooby doo for the whole programme. " then he climbed up this drain pipe, in his ghost costume and said ooh. then he got the coathanger and the beer barrell and rolled down, the coathanger cast the shadow of a cow over the cow painting he stole from the the drain pipe factory. it all makes sense now."

that took so long to type

Daniel says:

Daniel says:

David.. says:

A cautionary tale.

Today I gave myself a shock. It was just an ordinary day - or so I thought. There is this minty menthol shower gel in my bathroom. I had a shower and this was close at hand, so I used it. Little did I know. Obviously I didn't want a case of the fishy willies, so I soaped thoroughly. Getting menthol in your foreskin hurts loads. *Boycott* (sp??).

The toilet has broken, so now the only way it will flush is if you pull of this copper wire we've fashioned onto the inside of the cistern. Its really interesting though... I didn't realise it was so clever until now, I just thought it was the toilet really. But I have now begun to look at plumbing with the same gaping mouthed, morbid curiousity that you do when you see an open chest cavity on a medical drama.

Krill

2008-07-07T10:22:00.000-07:00

I remember last November. Henry came round and we watched nature documentaries on my parent's disgustingly huge widescreen tv. I've never been a religious person, but that has all changed. I learnt about the krill. Krill are excellent. They swim around in big... schools? in the sea that can be seen from orbit. Then came the story of the Krill-People...

" One day, some people were transformed into krill. Those, like you and I, can only hope to acchieve such a state, being uptight aristocrats that we are. We should all stop being rocks and fling ourselves into a cloudy unison of bio-massive love! - And swim through our seas together, just like the krill."

Take a moment to reflect.
