Recent holiday fare: Philip K Dick - Ubik Imagine we could converse with Mr Dick's half life. We might tell him of 2007, of the ubiquotous personal computer and the internet with it's port scanning Hackers, Spybots, Trojans and identity fraud; of combatant Firewalls, Anti-Virus software and constant...

Finally found somewhere to post this ...

Watching Ideal 'tother night, and guess who appeared as Jesus to give a sign to a religious nutter hiding in Johnny Vegas' loft?

Well, obviously, legendary Fall front man, wossisname.

Nice one. What year? Is 10 miles an under-estimate for the distance to Macc? 15 maybe? I went for 10 as everything is so incredibly close together in that part of the world. That was approx 5 years ago. Also spotted Rio Ferdinand thereabouts (or at least his Aston Martin, RF 1 ). 10 miles is about ...

A rare celebrity spot by this correspondent occurred in the fair town of Wilmslow ('twixt Macclesfiled and Manchester). Was heading for a lunchtime bun when who should I spy ambling along in a v. cool trench coat and clutching a Sainsbury's carrier bag? Bernard Sumner.

Go for it!

It seems that north east supporters in general think that they deserve better just because they flock in great numbers to watch mediocre football. Hmmm, so outnumbering the home fans @ many grounds they visit, & home gates that are double most rivals, yet the fans should not expect bigger, bett...

Sunderland in Europe? I read that and spit red wine out my nose. Keane's done a very nice job with them, but come on! Cheek! With home gates of 40k Sunderland belong in the top flight, more so than Reading/Wigan etc. They've come close to Europe before, and the fans surely deserve some reward for t...

But, surely, Caroline Quentin's sitcom must get the EC seal of approval? (unless you're referring to some lesser family of similar designation? )

Your welcome Boo.
However, I must apologise for 2 things :
1 - the botch up with the Fugees (not sure what happened there), and
2 - Dance Me to the End of Love is Leonard Cohen.

Michael Jackson is black? WTF!

I reckon that's from the Macca DVD Put it There, a promo for Flowers in the Dirt. Sadly, that's about all we get of our boy.

She's a Worky Ticket - The Toy Dolls

I find the layout of some stores v. offputting. The Virgin MegaStore hereabouts has taken to filing everything by price, and then not even alphabetically. That's OK if you just wanna browse, but trying to find something specific is too much trouble. They're also giving more and more space to phones/...

Also, the Clean Money has Elvis quoting himself.
