Four things that make True Lies one of the...
I know what you’re thinking. “How does he know what I’m thinking?” I also know what you were thinking before that. “True Lies? Sure, it may be an adrenaline fueled roller coaster ride of thrills, laughs and spills, but one of the greatest movies ever made? Behave!” Well allow me to put your mind at ease. That reaction is involuntary. It’s programmed...

Oh hey nobody told me The Brit Awards were on...
How did I only just find out the Brits were on tonight? I just had a look at the website to check out the nominees. Good golly, Miss Molly. It looks like another great show this year. My predictions: 1. Instead of watching The Brit awards I crack open a bottle of wine, casually smoke a cigarette, and watch a film on DVD. I will possibly have a bag of peanuts or something to go with it. It will...

Trying to sort out my Karma: Apology #8
In an effort to sort out all the bad karma I am almost certainly due because of nefarious past deeds, I’m going to attempt to tackle the problem head on by periodically apologising for them in my blog. They’re in no particular order; not chronological, nor in terms of severity. They’re just appearing in the order they pop into my head. Apology #8 I remember when I was at school, and this one...

Mixtape #1: The Sincerest Form of Flattery
This is my first mixtape I’m uploading, and I thought for my first theme I’d pick covers. I really like covers. I’m not talking Westlife covering Unchained Melody. I mean hearing something you know, and quite often love, in a new and different way. Sort of like looking at something familiar from a different angle. Most of the songs are famous, but some of the renditions take the...

I sit here having just constructed a playlist on my iPod. The theme, loose as it was, was a sort of riot grrrl/alt. rock/whatever hybrid; the sort of thing that let’s me get away with putting The Breeders, The Slits, QueenAdreena and Bratmobile all in the same place for my listening pleasure. And after finishing this playlist, it sent my mind back to a time long ago. A time before my iPod...

The Post-Pinkerton Problem: AKA, When Good Bands...
Nothing lasts forever. Nothing. It’s a bit of a double edged sword, I think. On the one hand, we know that everything we know will surely one day perish. Every person, every place, every memory and movie and song. Every held hand, every kiss, every silent embrace. Everything we have ever loved will one day return to zero, be it by death, the trumpets sounding on Judgement Day, or the...

I've written a poem...
This is a poem I wrote. It’s called “Time”. 1.15am. Cold and dark. Concrete hides the ghosts of a thousand trees. A silouhette emerging, From the mouth of a steel beast. 1.20am Cold and dark. Like his namesake der Depperte, but confined to all fours. The silver chariot, Closes vertical doors. 1.21am Cold and dark. Doc Brown says, “When this baby hits 88, you’re gonna...

Films That I Watched Just Because There's A Fit...
It’s easy to be led astray by a pretty face. It’s even easier to be led astray by a pretty face if it’s attached to killer tits. Like not actually attached. Because that would be fucked up. But all part of the same person attached. Yeah. Pretty faces can lead a man to do things he wouldn’t normally do. They can make you act out of character. This makes pretty faces...

Gordon Ramsay's Dwarf Porn Double Found Dead In A... →
There’s so many words in this headline that on their own can turn a news story from ‘interesting’ to ‘must read’. Porn. Dwarf. Badger. When you’ve got them all in one headline, you’re dropping an atom bomb of news; there is no ignoring it. I think the top three highlights of the story for me are: 3. “I’ve already ordered a new BMW and a...

Five ways movies are better than real life...
Movies. We all like them. Some of us like a little escapism, others want something profound that can generate debate about its hidden meanings. Whether you’re into Steven Seagal marathons, the what-felt-like-ten-hours rape scene in Irreversible, or quaint Japanese animation, one thing we can all agree on is that movies are better than real life. Well, apart from that rape scene in...

My Favourite 5 Works of Art...
As you know, I’m a man of class. Nay, a man of the arts. You may think it’s fruity or snobby, but I couldn’t give a jib, because art is fabulous and liking it makes me better. So let’s have a bit of culture for once and talk about famous works of art that inspire heroism inside the deepest nether regions of our souls. This is about stirring images. The kind that make you...

crusadermaximus asked: Enjoyed your blog about agnosticism and Catholicism. I think you'd like Fr. James Martin's books. For much of his life he was working at GE and basically was Catholic in name only because it was better than nothing and it couldn't hurt. Anyways, reading your post made me think of him and his books. Give them a look if you feel so inclined. -Max

An essay about my faith...
Let’s get down to brass tacks, people. I’m baptized Catholic, but I consider myself a sort of Agnostic. That’s the one who doesn’t know whether there’s a God or not, but retains an open mind and isn’t going to rule anything out without hard evidence. It’s sort of like the person who stands in a supermarket and observes the lines to see which one moves...
