Sook Ma Bobae
Not so sure about the spelling, but the sentiment is sound.

Well well, looks like there's not too much happening on the InterWeb today, all my standard haunts have pretty mundane stuff on there, best thing was the full size lego model of a Volvo, which I'm not linking to because I can't be arsed.

I've decided that we must be the first hit on google for the phrase "Pirate", I think this can be done by mentioning the word a lot and having other people link to us. Since I, again, can't be arsed with the latter, the former will have to do.

We've been asked to stick around here for another six months. This is great for the bank balance, and for you, dear reader, in that you'll be able to enjoy our pish and drivel for another little while. I do think, however, that we need to put a bit more thought into the postings to make them more informative and entertaining. Obviously by this I mean the other posts, not mine, which are already difficult to improve upon. So, c'mon guys, get with the program!

I watched a documentary or two about Stephen Hawking(s) the other day. I think it's his birthday soon, turns 40 tomorrow or something, which explains the saturation of coverage. The first thing I watched was on council telly, and was a dramatisation of his life from 20-30 or something like that. It was very touching, covering the diagnosis of his motor neuron disease and the gradual deterioration of his condition at the same time as him coming up with the Big Bang theory that he is so linked with. I have to say though, I watched the documentary on one of the bbc+ channels later on, which clearly demonstrated some inaccuracies in the story. Not unusual I know, but given the programmes were on basically the same channel, one after the other, it felt a bit strange.
I also watched some interviews with the guy, and have to say he's an arrogant twat. I'm not sure whether we can just accept that as justified because he's a genius (which brings me to another subject, based on the Isaac Newton thing I mentioned - but I'll leave that for now).
So, in summary - Hawking(s) - Genius and Wank in equal quantities, thanks for reading.
