Fascinating stuff.
Indeed. Who knew Cat Stevens played for Man U?!

Yes, well, indeed little p....
Did God tell you to say that?

Heh, I'm thinking about emailing my partner and saying 'See? That expression you get on your face when I've already been ranting for fifteen minutes and you hear the phrase 'and then'? Completely unjustified'.
Except I'm pretty sure he's still right.
I'm pretty sure you'd be a, um, challenging presence in full flight Emma.
At least online you can't tell when I'm not listening.

I try to restrain my inner crazy ranting bitch for you guys.
Please don't.
The world needs to hear it. So go ahead, I beg you, fuel up the rantmobile and take us for a spin.

In that spirit, Ffunnell is discussing a campaign with Freeview. A reader each from participating sites gets a Freeview PVR, on the condition that they blog about their experience of entering the world of digital time-shifting. They'd be someone who didn't have any form of digital TV or recorder.
I made it clear that we'd have to do it our way -- no daily posts (eg: perhaps two posts over two weeks would be appropriate), it'd have to be someone who could write engagingly enough to make it worthwhile, and I'd clearly explain the basis on which things were being done.
What do you think? It clearly benefits the lucky punter who gets a PVR, we get a little money, and -- hopefully -- the conversation is worthwhile.
Ooh ooh pick me, pick me!
I'm way behind the digital curve, have a BA in, ahem, Media Studies*, have written/edited for a living in the past and once blogged for a limited time only.
* Also one in Politics. So there. As if it helps.

The parent company is co-founded by America hate-radio meathead Michael Savage, whose freakish bigotry extends to vile spewing about both gay folk, and autistic children and their parents. You may wish to buy your caffeine and sugar concoctions elsewhere.
Hey, that's almost me!

Maybe this is why it's understandable to call Michael Laws a Chunt.

Can anyone recommend a good lawyer to do conveyance and to help me set up an owner operator business project, in Levin?
Me too! Me too! In Welly please.
I need a cunning yet empathetic lawyer to help my lovely extricate herself from her leech of an ex.
Or is that possibly asking too much?

Heh, yeah, that thing about passes and glasses? So not true.
I'll have you know my last two serious squeezes wore/wear glasses. I think they look sexier on than off.
And I'll just add that I'm in no way minimising the impact that deteriorating vision must have on people. No doubt it is frightening and truly sucks.

I've wanted glasses since my late teens when I realised I looked far more sophisticated and intelligent when trying on my friend's goggles.
Unfortunately I've been cursed with the best vision of anyone I know (I can read street signs from two towns away) which leaves me with a boring old naked face and no clues to my scorching intellect.
A few years ago I used to teach high-level snowboarding by getting the client to put on a blindfold and use their instincts and remaining senses to find their way down.
I tried it myself once by riding blind in a snowstorm at midnight with a skin full of margueritas and broke three ribs. I obviously wasn't listening hard enough.
