101 uses for obsolete bibles

I’ve been having lots of fun on Fun Trivia. You can play for yourself or join a team or start a team – and I do likes my trivia :)

I’m still waiting for my new car :| . I phoned on Wednesday last week as I was due to get it on the Thursday. The fella who sold me it has apparently left and the man covering his sales said they were running a couple of days behind, I should have it early this week and he’ll phone me on Monday. Well it’s Wednesday. Phoned and asked to speak to him. “Oh he’s not here at the moment”, got them to take my name and number. Still waiting to be phoned back. That pisses me off. Cars aren’t cheap, even if you are paying in installments. Plus this little light has come up on the old car that I’m trading in…....

I should stop spending money. I have a ridiculously low amount to last me 2 more weeks :(

Candleburn - Dishwalla

on Vineland past the candle shrine that burns on every night
for someone
she lets herself go
like an angel in the snow
she lays down on her back
down on her back – she goes

take me over when I’m gone
take me over make me strong
take me over when I’m gone
will they burn for me

on Vineland past the candle shrine that melts into the street design
she waits – for someone
tonight she’ll give herself away
she’ll break apart all by herself
its so easy how we come undone

take me over when I’m gone
take me over make me strong
take me over when I’m gone
will they burn for me

she pulls me in – strips me down
she pulls me in – turns me out
she pulls me in – strips me down

take me over when I’m gone
take me over make me strong
take me over when I’m gone
will they burn for me
will they burn for me

You just can’t please some folks

I love this thing!

and also my place of work

Goodbye My Lover - James Blunt

Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
‘Cause I saw the end before we’d begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.
So I took what’s mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won’t stop there,
I am here for you if you’d only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I’ve kissed your lips and held your head.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I’ve been addicted to you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer but when I wake,
You can’t break my spirit – it’s my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I’ve seen you cry, I’ve seen you smile.
I’ve watched you sleeping for a while.
I’d be the father of your child.
I’d spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We’ve had our doubts but now we’re fine,
And I love you, I swear that’s true.
I cannot live without you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I’m asleep.
And I will bare my soul in time,
When I’m kneeling at your feet.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.
I’m so hollow, baby, I’m so hollow.
I’m so, I’m so, I’m so hollow.

Day 11

Man I’m knackered. Did overtime at the weekend – I had to “clean” at one point…..CLEAN! HAH!, all right it was only for a couple of hours but I had plenty of work to be getting on with!
So 11 days of getting up early. Thinking is getting hard….harder than normal :(

JCB - Nizlopi

This is a funky wee tune :)

Well, I’m rumblin’ in this JCB.
I’m 5 years old and my dad’s a giant sitting beside me.
And the engine rattles my bum like berserk
While we’re singin, ‘Don’t forget your shovel if you want to go to work!’

My dad’s probably had a bloody hard day
But he’s been good fun and bubblin and jokin’ away
And the procession of cars stuck behind
are gettin all impatient and angry, but we dont mind.

An’ we’re holdin up the bypass
oh
Me and my dad havin a top laugh
oh woah

Sittin on the toolbox
oh
And I’m so glad I’m not in school, boss
So glad I’m not in school

Oh no…

And we pull over to let cars past
And pull off again, speedin by the summer green grass
And we’re like giants up here in our big yellow digger
Like zoids, or transformers, or maybe even bigger

And I wanna transform into a Tyrannosaurus Rex!
And eat up all the bullies and the teachers and their pets
And I’ll tell all my mates that my dad’s B.A. Baracus
Only with a JCB and Bruce Lee’s nunchuckas

And We’re holdin up the bypass
oh
Me and my dad havin a top laugh
oh woah

Sittin on the toolbox
oh
And I’m so glad I’m not in school, boss
So glad I’m not in school

And we’re holdin up the bypass
oh oh

Me and my dad havin a top laugh
oh woah

I’m sittin on the toolbox
oh oh

And I’m so glad I’m not in school, Boss
So glad I’m not in school

Said I’m Luke, I’m five, and my dad’s Bruce Lee. Drives me round in his JCB.
I’m Luke, I’m five, and my dad’s Bruce Lee. Drives me round in his JCB.
I’m Luke, I’m five, and my dad’s Bruce Lee. Drives me round in his JCB.
I’m Luke, I’m five, and my dad’s Bruce Lee. Drives me round

And we’re holdin’ up the bypass
woah

Me and my dad havin a top laugh
oh woah

And I’m sittin on the toolbox
oh

And I’m so glad I’m not in school, Boss
So glad I’m not in school

Aw, said

I’m Luke, I’m five, and my dad’s Bruce Lee. Drives me round in his JCB.
I’m Luke, I’m five, and my dad’s Bruce Lee. Drives me round in his

Aw, I’m Luke, I’m five, and my dad’s Bruce Lee. Drives me round in his JCB.
I’m Luke, I’m five, and my dad’s Bruce Lee. Drives me round in his JCB.

Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire

Went to see this movie last night. It is very very good but you really need to have read the book (although not recently otherwise you’d just nitpick) first.

It is quite dark, although there are plenty of funny moments thrown in. If you’re a Harry Potter fan then you must go and see this….although you might want to wait till the kids stop going – bloody creatures!

Scene from the new film!

Why I’m an atheist part 2

Cause I really don’t want to be like thishorrible excuse for a human :O.

“Maurice Mills said that the natural disaster – which killed 1,300 people, caused $130bn worth of damage and left tens of thousands homeless – was an act of God against those who practise homosexuality. “

The slug that is Maurice is a member of the DUP (democratic unionist party) the political wing of the Free P’s (free presbyterians) the most joyless bunch of god botherers that ever did exist.

Quite frankly if believing in god means I have to LOWER myself to have such vile, insulting thoughts I’m quite glad to have realised there isn’t one. I have often found that those who consider themselves more “moral” than the rest of us, are not nice people.

Some of the problems I have with this:-

1. Apparently his god has no problem what so ever in destroying and ending the lives of the most vulnerable just to disrupt a gay pride parade even though those he killed had nothing to do with said parade? – oh yes let me sign up to worship that monster.

2. His god has decided that the actions of two consenting adults who are hurting no one is so much more reprehensible than those of say…soliders…in dictatorship countries who slaughter and mutilate innocent people and rape women and children. Please, please, please sign up to worship the monster.

3. His god is so friggin incompetent he couldn’t even manage to get the right day, waited 35 years to punish them for it, left the district where it was going to be held as one of the least devastated and managed to devastate parts Alabama and Mississippi. Surely as a god he could be a bit more precise and clear in his message, or perhaps aim for somewhere THAT ISN’T PRONE TO HURRICANES? Seriously…..omnipotent….I really don’t think so

I would never vote for the DUP, even with a gun to my head anyway and this boil on the arse of humanity has certainly reaffirmed my sheer distaste. I hope that anyone who voted for him does not do so again.

Okay I have finished ranting now, I was just so disgusted when I heard about it.

Kryptonite

I seem to have lost my special powers…...

I used to feel really ill if I read on the bus, this seemed to clear up, but the last few times I’ve tried I’ve felt really ill again :( . It’s a shame as it was a really good way to kill 40 minutes. I’ll have to try during the morning journey as I might simply be too warm.

I brought this up because I’m reading The Novice the second in the Black Magician Trilogy by Trudi Canavan, which is even better than The Magician’s Guild . I’m hooked!

ABC

Why do people seem completely oblivious to the fact that your is not a contracted version of you are.

YOU’RE

It’s not that hard to grasp really, or has someone changed the language and failed to inform me?

The car sales guy valued my current car at £3800 which was more than the final payment so I was able to put some money towards the deposit on the new one :) Which im getting Jan 1!

23 - Jimmy Eat World

I felt for sure last night
That once we said goodbye
No one else will know these lonely dreams
No one else will know that part of me
I’m still driving away
And I’m sorry every day
I won’t always love these selfish things
I won’t always live…
Not stopping…

It was my turn to decide
I knew this was our time
No one else will have me like you do
No one else will have me, only you

You’ll sit alone forever
If you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for?
I’m here I’m now I’m ready
Holding on tight
Don’t give away the end
The one thing that stays mine

Amazing still it seems
I’ll be 23
I won’t always love what I’ll never have
I won’t always live in my regrets

You’ll sit alone forever
If you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for?
I’m here I’m now I’m ready
Holding on tight
Don’t give away the end
The one thing that stays mine

You’ll sit alone forever
If you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for?
I’m here I’m now I’m ready
Holding on tight
Don’t give away the end
The one thing that stays mine…

LOL good

I get the weirdest spam to this blog.

Mostly it’s total gibberish with links to online poker but it’s still bizarre. I mean the one today had something united ireland portugese and was apparently for online drugs. I kept getting one that was title gay marriage with links for poker.

Then there was “LOL good” – that was it. Now it might of been a real comment….cept the URL link was to a dead page and it was in response to my one liner about sinuses….yeah….cause that’s an appropriate response

anyhow, my sinus thing has developed into a cold…....urgh
