I get up earlier than usual to take care of some business. On the way home I manage to choke down some rashers, egg and some weird form of tomato relish as breakfast. Who ever heard of tomato relish. My first thought was this is sauce like, but god only knows. Its stayed down for the last few hours and shortly I will be out of the food poisoning zone.
So another week begins. We're looking at some serious movie folk for the show later on in the week, but nothing concrete yet. My Star Wars special is still getting some attention as well. Comes to light that BBC Scotland were asking about it. So thats a big compliment. Keeping with movies I download some new trailers, namely The Chronicles of Narnia. Not my thing at all, but it looks good in a sort of Lord of the Rings way. Land of the dead is also viewed and its another zombie flick from George Romero. Im a big fan, but the trailer just shows more of the same. The zombie genre, while on a comeback of recent years, is almost out of steam methinks. Although if anyone can kick the shite back into it, its Romero. Colin Farrells The New World is also after coming down the line and it looks shit hot. Im sure most people (myself included) will be a bit cagey for another epic style film, especially after Alexander. Or so the critcs would have it. My copy of Alexander arrived today on DVD, so Ill have to take it in soon as I have not seen the flick yet.
Yet another celebrity sex tape is on the cards by all accounts. No I havent seen it, but its Tom Sizemore and Liz Hurley...again by all acoounts. Do we even care that Liz is getting laid anymore. Lets see Britney and her yeeehhhaaawww go at it. Can you picture it. Hed probably have a beer resting on her back as shes bent over polishing his collection of shotguns. Raccoon season is here yall.
Anyway, I have to get outta here and cook some thing that will resemble a dinner.
Oh yeah, Im sure you've noticed a slight change in how things look now, and also check out the link on the right called Vman in Japan. Its a mate of mine from Dingle who scuttered off the Japan a few years back and there are some really cool photos.

Another Few Days Bite The Dust
Its nearly 2 o clock and another Sunday is rushing by, like the traffic on the south link @ 3 in the morning. With the good weather we've been having over the last few days we decided to buy a big bastard of a parasol. 3m's to be percise. Throw in some garden furniture and a cheapo BBQ and you've got the making for a potential outbreak of food poisoning. Well its safe to say that everyone has survived. I had to BBQs yesterday, granted the later one was a bit worse for wear. Between cider and chicken wings getting burnt to a crisp, it was all good. The only thing is that theres so much BBQ food in the freezer that we have to have another one today.
Got to see the MTV movie awards last night (thank you Sky +) and I was pretty impressed with the intro. Jimmy Fallon never looked so cool in the Batmobile. The editing and compositing was first class. The awards themselves were pretty ok, Eminems performance was great as was the Foo Fighters. With Katy Holmes presenting Tom Cruise with the Generation award it must have been a bit of a kick in the tits for Nicole Kidman watching the carry on. Granted, Tom was having none of this smoochy shit on stage. The highlight of the show had to be Jimmy Fallon grabbing Sandra Bullocks breasts. Very funny, a bit predictable but very bold.
God only know what else has gone on over the weekend, I cant remember. Not alcohol induced but I just cant remember. The weather is great, but the bastard has woken me up at 6am every morning this weekend. I watched a program called the Real Di Vinci Code Friday night. I must be one of the only people in the world NOT to read the book. Yeah I bought it but just couldnt get into. My Dad finished it in about 2 days. The program was interesting though, definitely a thought provoker. Im sure there are plenty of people running around saying "Ya know Im related to Jesus". Come Sunday afternoon they're going UP to visit the cousins.
"How ya cousin Jesus?"
I need a haircut and a shave and the sun is out (again). So tis time to depart and sort out another BBQ. All I know is the shop near here better have them fuckin self lighting charcoal bags.

It was a long night last night. Bank Holidays can be dodgy on the radio particualry for the monday night pshychic segment. But thankfully we were rockin as usual last night. I got home for around 1ish following an almost tearful farewell with my other producer Michelle. Thank God for Sky+, plenty doses of the Simpons and even Coronation Street. Mixed in with a few bottles of beer and 2 damn pot noodles, I had an early excursion to the jacks this morning...twice. Of course what did I have for lunch...another pot noddle. Im addicted to the mexican ones at the moment. Its tough going though. Speaking of spicy things I picked up some extra hot sauce during a midnight shop on Friday. Well turn me sideways and beat me with a hurley. It blew the head clean off me, never had anything like it. Ill look at the label later and put it up here...just in case your interested! Im a big fan of all things spicy, but this sauce will rarely get used.
Given the papers for a bank holiday are written a week before almost, Im not entirely sure whats going to be on the cards tonight. But I know I will be doing a suvivial guide, like Ive done every year at this time, for the exam students. It was great being in 2nd and 5th year..it was like "Ha look at those fuckin fools and there exams" and then in what felt like a week I was the fool doin the exams. Theres nothing worse than doing the Leaving Cert. Im a big believer of dont believe the hype and all, but it just gets a taste in your mouth and gives you a bit of a downer each morning you have to get up. Theres too much pressure on kids these days, more of a pressure created or should I say manufactured by society. If your reading this (I know theres at least 2) and your doing exams, take it handy...no pressure. I remember doing my leaving the first time round ( I repeated cos I fucked it up first time) a select few of us were racing each other to see who could finish first. Hence there was a tear or 2 the second time round and it was all good!
I read this morning that the first trailer for King Kong will be attached with War of the Worlds and will be online around June 28th. Looking ahead its not a bad summer for movies. Roll on Batman Begins next week and of course War of the Worlds. I must say Im just slightly interested in Mr and Mrs Smith. No its not Silent Bob and his missus but the Pitt and the Jolie kicking the shit out of each other. Should be good, at least it looks good. Even from the warddrobe perspective. The uniforms look pretty cool.
Theres now 19 fish in the tank and all are doing well. I bought 13 more on Friday and will be doing one or 2 more stock ups before the week is out. More than likely on Friday. Im telling ya, this is the best hobby Ive had in quite a while. It keeps me quiet for a few minutes a day, which is great news if your trying to put up with me.
A few people have asked me to do some more rappin' since I busted out some rhymes from the website during the show last week. Dont hold your breath it wont be happening.
Theres nothing else of note here today so thatll be all

Theres a 18" version of "Marv" from Sin City. Great movie, saw it on a special screening this morning @ 10.30. Super violent, Super Sexy and just plain Super. I havent been around the last few days due to some bad news that I wont get into here. Im absolutely shattered, its been a long couple of days so far but Ill pull through. Thats it really, nothing else I want to be rabbiting on about, just not in the mood.
New fish tomorrow though.

Well Im still missing what feels like, a third of one of my back teeth. I have the occasional drool and a minute lisp, but no matter what I tell myself, I will still have to go to the dentist. As a matter of fact its going to be tomorrow and for the rest of the week.
The mother in law (to be,almost) came for a visit today.....always good fun. The fish are rockin' now. Im about to finish book 3 of Frank Millers Sin City and its a helluva read. Roll on the screening Im going to on Thursday morning.
For the first time since we moved in, I came home last night and went straight to bed, due to the dizziness and weird pains in my head. 13 hours later, I was feeling a bit better. All tooth related no doubt or should that be, as per yesterdays post...fuckin popcorn!!!!
I have to start organising for Gers birthday in the next day or 2 so thats going to be fun.......not. I hate; well hate is too strong a word, Im not a big fan of this organising due to running out of ideas after 5 years. It has to be done though, it has to be done.
So theres nothing else of mention...

What a fucker of day. Well things arent that bad. My copy of Be Cool arrived and as opposed to putting it on the shelf I decided to watch it. Most people will have a munch with a movie and I made some popcorn. As with most popcorn there are always some kernels left over. Well one of these little bastards knocked half of my tooth at the back of my mouth and Im beginning to get a lisp now. A visit is now in order for the dentist, who knows when though. Overall the movie wasnt bad, but Im in a real irritated state now. Fuckin popcorn!!!!
The next few additions to the fish tank will be made on Friday and Im off to Sin City on Thursday. Life wouldnt be too bad only for fuckin popcorn. So thats it, Im off to do the show. Hopefully tomorrow Ill be feeling a bit better.............fuckin popcorn

Well another weekend bites the dust. Today as the weather was nice and Im sick shit of cooking I decided we should head out for Sunday lunch. Off to Carrigaline tried 2 places (one being a hotel) and feckin nothing. No food period. To top this off the traffic was mental, so after a visit to Woodies via Belgooly (dont ask) we made KFC. At least we had chicken, granted it wasnt roasted. Saturday night I was left on my tod as herself had some birthday party to go to, so experimenting I went. Rock Shandy and Tia Maria = Vics Liquid Orange Chocolate. The absolute job. Im wondering now if I mixed it with Cidona would I get a toffee apple like cocktail.
Managed to take in Assault on Precint 13 on Friday night as well as nearly dying for stuffeditis from a Chinese. All in all gritty and gorey and that was just the Chinese, the movie was good too. The fish have almost being cleared completley of whitespot, granted theres one more treatment to go tomorrow and thats it then. Big purchase of fish on Friday next.
This is it for today as I can hear the KFC knocking to come out!
