The beast seems to be grumpy some what. Hes moping around looking a little miserable, ive toyed with the idea of buying him a real live moose to play with, however i have a feeling that his antlers could cause issues, like what would we decorate them with at Christmas time?
Besides that a pet moose seems like a good idea.
so yea, suggestions on how to make the beast more happy... anything that doesn't include letting him toy with a bird, or giving him a gold fish in a bowl.
more serious items next time.

Iron Man
Today is the first time in a while i went to the cinema and besides and unfortunate run in with a stale hot dog bun the experience was a good one. . .
As todays titles suggests we watched iron man. I was in the company of the Mrs, my brother and his mrs. They are not comic book fans but surprise surprise I am. I have a reasonable collection of both Marvel and DC publications nestled away in their comfortable plastic sheathes protected from the evils bactira and sunlight that this evil world may try to inflict upon their glorious glossy pages.
Moving on . ..
You know what, out of all the comic adaptations I have viewed currently Batman Begins holds the top spot, but I reckon Iron man is comfortable number two. Downey Jr. is as always doing an awesome job.
The only thing i reckon I would change is the fact that he changes his ideals a little too quick for my liking. I always enjoyed the fact that Tony Stark was still a bit of a playboy even though he was iron man, he still had an arrogance and a bit of a roughness, not the usual goody goody super hero. besides that its all good, he delivers, i look forward to seeing him in The Hulk (2008) and the next iron man.
Paltrow hot as a red head plays a good role.
The dude, im surprises he shaved his head and grew a beard but he did a decent job.
All in all a good thing.
The only thing that did piss me off slightly is some yob throwing chips at my living room window. What drives these people? is it a sense of boredom or the fact that somewhere deep down in their small tiny brain they feel that rebelling in some way.
I tell you what, next time you want to rebel against something, let me know and ill stand outside my house, watch you do it and follow you home, then when i throw chips at yours (or no doubt your mothers house) ill see how you like it. You little prepubescent shit.
Have a good day.

In a drunken rage!!!!
soooo,,, , it is in a drunken rage i return to the blogosphere.....
I'm under the opinion that life got dull for a while so i didnt have anything to talk about,,, but now, things have changed,,
went to vegas , got married, my credit card was abused by some Arse!, had a wedding do while bringing the band back together and then got burgled, , , its been a strange few months .. . .
im surprised im not more angry at the world, , , like mr Douglas in Falling down. . . .but maybe i'm pushing down all this rage and anger in order to explode at some point, we shall see how the next week or so plays out in this rich tapestry of life, , ,
it is at this point I quote someone who could be considered a modern day hero, , ,however that could be debated , ,, maybe a mass debate, , ahem, , !
'Life goes by pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. '
oh and for those who dont know, i like cake ,, , i feel its worthwhile mentioning this as lately i have been stating that I will not turn up to meetings, family events, bar mitzvahs or any other gathering without the promise of cake.

its been a while
hmmm strange day to day,.
took our cat to be 'sorted' yesterday and he seems to have come back as a devil cat.
i wonder if they took his soul or poisoned it in someway, he wont let me stroke him, i havent seen him sleep and hes just a little nuts.
im slightly concerned , i wonder if i need a priest.

The Best Ribs...and ive just finished a bottle of wine (hence the rant!)
This evening i had the pleasure of eating the best ribs i have ever had.
It was a wonderful experience, now, im not a guy who recommends stuff, a number of my close friends have mentioned that I very middle of the road , sit on the fence kinda guy, ,and even though i am passionate about a lot of things i very rarely say something is awesome.
Sooo, it is with great pleasure this evening , i can recommend, Ribs in a Honey sauce from the Taste of China in Garforth Main Street, in Leeds.
Now.. please,, dont blame me if you try these out and they dont float your boat,, fizzle your wizzle or do any of that stuff that you always felt uncomfortable telling your girlfriend felt sooo good but also at the sametime kinda felt wrong.........
These ribs come in small pieces, the meat is melt in your mouth tender. they are the best ribs i have experienced, bear in mind i did have some issues, the sauce was a little hot for my lilking, and some of the ribs had a little fat, but ill be honest, these are the least fatty ive had.
Any way, while we are on the subject, how come people always have issues recommending stuff, i mean, honestly,, this is one of the reasons i very rearly say,, that film was shit hot,, or that meal was fucking great,.. or, yea,, that little dwarf guy could really shake his little tiny ass like he really didnt care.
I assume its cause if someone recommends something,, the person you recommend to may have different standards and assume that their crap is your good, ,, i mean think about it, ever been to see a film that a friend said was awesome but was really just dullllll,
It could aslo be that people are afraid to recommend something incase they get the piss taken out of them,.
Its a shame that people cant say " I think this is good", while having a slight fear that they maybe mocked, or picked on.
I mean ,,,fuck me, i got picked on at school cause i liked the beach boys.. . . . (for their music might i add). . and still now get mocked cause i feel they had more influence of popular music that The Beatles. ...(topical,, i know!)
anyway,,....
heres my latest top 10 of stuff ive enjoyed lately.. (in no specific order)
1: The ribs from Taste of China Garforth,(Which i might add was an eatery reccomeneded by a dolphin friend of mine. IF he has trouble eating chicken tikka marsala with those flippers, how does he manage prawn crackers?come to think of it , how does he pleasure his good self. )
2: A fruity little bottle of wine that my significant other bought me. Fraking great.
3: Battle star galactica season three,, who saw that coming,, honestly? Its darker than the underside of a fat mans scrotum..
4:Crying with laughter while at pub quiz with close friends and discussions that centred around the English language and a family fortunes type quiz. (i dont know if that counts as a recommendation, but if i could recommend that people hang around with my friends i would)
5: My significant other in small skimpy pants, still makes me stare. . . (again, can i recommend other people check out my significant other in skimpy pants,, maybe not, but trust me when i say,, !!!!!!!!)
6:Gordon Ramsys book entitled Humble pie. . good book . http://www.amazon.co.uk/Humble-Pie-Gordon-Ramsay/dp/0007229674
7: Adopting a kitten thats turned out to be the most grown up thing ive ever done,, however be aware, an animal aint just for while its a small bundle of fur that trys to make noises like a little bird. it also has to be looked after while trying to chew your toes at 6am on a morning and biting your nose.
8: Family Guy,, its wrong but sooo right,
9:Clerks Two,, "fugly,," Hey, Fucko, we like to call it inter-species erotica." http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0424345/
10: Chris evens on radio 2 on an evening,, no matter how im feeling this guy seems to cheer me up, its like hes the happiest guy in the world and he wants you to be a part of it. http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/shows/evans/
Until next time,,,, , ,

Pain,, Searing Pain !
Ive hurt my back,, it hurts!..
i cant stand up straight,, (no erection jokes please).
You may ask yourself how did you manage this,, saving someone from an accident, , rescuing a kitten from a tree, , ,helping an old lady cross the road,,,,no ,, the answer as always is (D)none of the above.
I did it in a sack race, thats right,, a sack race. . . A Team building exercise for the office,,, i mean ,, honestly ,, why do we need team building anyway,
I mean if we just talk to people in the office surely that is team building. Who knows why we do these things,,
wheres the team when it takes me 15 minutes to put my socks on in the morning cause i cant bend down, while the beast no less decides, its a fun time to pull out his little claws and grab my sock, , , and run off with it. Ill get you next time Gadget!
Ive always wondered do the police do team building events? Id like to think that if i was in the police (never gonna happen) that the the guys or girls back who I have got has also got mine. . nothing more team building than facing a shop lifter with a can of beans in one hand an a pack of smokes in the other and hes feeling lucky.. and he just may be a punk!
PS ..
please feel free to provide me some sympathy as i haven't had very much ,,, ,
Until Next time.

To Beard or not To Beard,,, that ,, is the beardness
Im working on a beard,,, its been a week since my last encounter with a razor blade.
And quite frankly im a little disappointed.. .
so you dont shave for a day or two,, and the little whiskers really push through,, make you question why you shave in the first place..
Give them a week and they start getting lazy,,,
I mean im giving these guys the opportunity for freedom,. to wave in the breeze while i sit in my car with the blowers on ,,, to let them attack my mrs when we hug. Why oh Why will they only make an effort till the 2nd or 3rd day,,
is it because they think that they have won war?
"Were free guys,, lets sit here in the sun,, but not attract too much attention in case someone spots us!"
who knows.. ,, if any one does please let me know,,
i think from next week i shall start a beard diary,, detailing every aspect of the beard experience,, ITV would pay for that.. .
some of you ,, well, when i say some of you , i mean the two maybe three of you..
not including the porpoise and the guy who stumbles across the blog while looking for porn after ten pints.. . i mean, just type Corn in Google!.. youll get there eventually my good friend..
i mean the other people,,maybe wondering why i want to grow a beard,,,,
well its all to do with a few good experiences with bearded men,,( i know what your thinking,,.. but not this time,,,)
Bearded men always seem to know what they are doing,, you work with a guy on a job, if your not sure of an answer for something,, ask the guy with the beard he'll know.. its always the case..
trust me ,, find a guy with a beard,, preferable one without holes in his socks standing in the street with nothing but a rubber chicken in his hand.. .. ask him a question,, odds on he'll know the answer,
and lets look at the great people of our time who had beards..
Abraham Lincoln,, beard tastic..
Plato,, beard alicious..
Obi won kenobi,, beard a chlorian
ray lamontagne beard ,,, a whooole lot a beard....
it mainly commands respect. .
and to add a little spice to the mix,, check the pictures of beard types below,
