average-day

A watch that reminds you exactly what you should be doing with your bright sunshiney day. The inner ring represents the PM while the outer represents the lovely mornings. A dole version of the watch is set to drop with sleep taking up 14 hours and weed smoking, The Afternoon Show, Judge Judy and munchies taking up the remaining 10. Available from Mr. Jones @ 129 yuros.

 

Sadly it is true. The King of Pop reigns no more. I am completely shocked to how fast the word spread, my phone blew up and I went straight onto facebook and twitter where everyone was just as stunned. Without a doubt the greatest pop star of all times. The video above just shows exactly why the world loved the man.

I haven’t been to the Zoo in a while and if I return I hope that gorilla isn’t as depressed as I remember, sitting on a step with his head down and looking pretty fed up. Also I hope they fixed that big crack on the glass that seperated the crowd and said gorilla. But hey, it’s a happy occasion tommorrow with the Dublin Zoo hosting a Guinness World Record attempt for the biggest Teddy Bears Picnic. A family day of fun as well as for young dossers who’ve no money left for booze, there’ll be some free munch and a Teddy Bear Hospital tending to the needs of bears that have suffered the wrath of those evil little children. All the info can be found here. I found this disturbing vid of some gobshite playing with a Butthole Bear. Yes they actually sell this type of toy.

Yes Auntie Gok, the instigator of women that rush to Hickeys to buy buttons, clips and strings to attach to their high street outfits is coming over soon to judge the Specsavers Specky Wearer of the year competition. The search is on for both ladies and gents and the entrant oozing the most ’specs appeal’ will win a contact to blue steel it with Assets modelling agency and a trip to Thailand. Enter here and join the facebook group. I’ll leave you with yer Wan’s advice on how to choose the ideal specs so you don’t look like that football head Harry Potter.

Christ, where does the time go? If this blog was my wife she’d be off riding the gardener by now. I’ve been getting into the groove of this 9-5 work thing the past 3 weeks and I’ve invested my free time in becoming a vegetable and steering away from engaging my brain with anything more strenuous than ogling Rosie’s rack in Coronation Street. Today my gross neglect ends and here’s my brain dumps for the weekend!!!

First up its the album I’ve been waiting to come out for a while and finally got to listen to yesterday. 25 year old Brit Kissy Sell Out’s album ”Youth’ came out last week and I read the NME review before it came out (Thou shalt never read NME…but it beats Hot Press). Well lets say the review pretty much slaughtered it. It’s not a bad album though, tracks like Bubs and Bizzle use those  same old fuzzy bass lines a la french electro but it’s feelgood music and with electro music like Kissy’s isn’t that what it’s about? Tunes like Apple Jelly and Essex Boy are get dancey tunes with some Madness style cockney vocals. If electro isn’t your thang then don’t bother, if it is then don’t expect amazement. Check his MySpace

I first learned of Liam Gallaghers new clothing line Pretty Green on Male-Mode a while back and yesterday I thought I’d have a look at his offerings after it’s launch the other day. Plain old cricket hats, polos, scarves, monkey jackets and the ultimate Oasis garment, the parka which all feature the Pretty Green logo and suprise suprise… it looks blatently similar to the Beatles ‘Rubber Soul’ logo from their 1965 album cover. Anyway I wasn’t even arsed writing about ”our kid’s” new clobber until I saw that the Sunday Times Style magazine actually bothered doing a piece on him today. He talks about how the label was born from his desire to make desert boots, which are currently in production, and as a response to “idiots ripping off clothes I’ve been buying” and selling them online as Oasis style clothes. Yes Liam, ripping off is a big no no isn’t it? Well I suppose you don’t write the songs anyway so we’ll let you away with that one.

None other than Mr. Obama which I found on the boredom cure of a  blog that was recommended by a couple people to me during the week. I New Idea is full of quality quirk which of course I love and this is just a sample of the wonderfully entertaining crap they do posts on.

Christian Bale, it was just too much for a mere mortal to undertake. You saved Batman, you cared for the dark knight and brought him back to full strength after director Joel Schumacher pretty much fucked him up good and proper. The two classic Terminator flicks were tainted by 2003’s Terminator: Rise of the Machines but once people watched it they ran away from it like shit on a stick and vowed never to watch again. Good. The fourth effort, Terminator Salvation is worth a watch but it didn’t have the suspense and great characters of the first two. I was left wondering which one was the ultra emotional scene that Bale was in the middle of when he when bonkers at the poor lighting guy.
