Now here's a *truly* stupid question: How come the left parenthesis ( and the right one ) don't mirror each other? They don't on my computer, though that may just be gill sans for you. A nice font. Oh, it is just gill sans. Possibly the least relevant start to a post EVER! And what is kickball, anyway? I can't actually remember where I was picked in PE - first if it was badminton (such a macho game), lower middle if it was anything else, I expect. I can also join the elite of red-carded sinisterines (and believe me, you don't want to get on the wrong side of Enthusiastic Pamela H) - I was once playing five a side footie when I was professionally fouled by the same bloke twice in a minute. I wasn't crazy about this guy anyway, but I saw red, and grabbed him by the neck, threw him on the ground and kicked him in the back and the head. The referee wasn't too impressed, but oddly it broke the ice between me and my victim, and we got on really well from then on. Make friends through mindless violence, kids! (I was 13 when the above happened, so don't judge me too harshly. Or do, if you saw my horror tackle that left Martin's leg broken in 15 places last summer. Almost) I've decided to boycott the list crush this time around. So don't you all go voting for me, cos it won't wash. I said stop it. Tsk, really. Talking of Oregon - well, I've never been, but I learnt all I needed to from Jello Biafra's description of being attacked by bat-wielding rednecks in Portland (I think). It's on the Give me Convenience or Give me Death album (I think again), which was one of the seminal albums in my more noisy youth. Definitely not enough Dead Kennedys discussion on Sinister. Canada, however, is lovely, or at least Vancouver, BC is. A few too many people with big trousers and badly dyed hair, but isn't that always the way? Still hoping to make it to Toronto later his year, but as the bill for my flat tops 140 grand, I'm not over-optimistic. Ah, I'll sort something out - the prospect of meeting Genevieve is all I need to get me motivated... Miss Vicky and I were chopping up bird eye chillies last night, and there are now few parts of my body which haven't been stinging hotly since last dinner time. It certainly makes the traditional W a novel experience. Not that I'd know, of course...
