Argh dahm you Saturday shoppers!

I do ask what is the dill-e-yo about those Saturday shoppers in food retailing places (i.e. supermarkets) the length and breadth of the land, with their fervered look in their eyes trying to pick up the last cucumber thats placed precariously on the shelf, I mean, why ram poor Bear here right up his arse? Not only do I swear incomprehensibly but then about 10 people miss out on the ridiculously over-priced watery-substance that you call a vegetable. Hmm, maybe it's just been a bad shopping trip today, or maybe, just *maybe* my phone was off and thats when the world and his wife decide to ring I dunno, or the fact that it's not going well on the whole Save The Radio 4 theme petition.

Now I heard on the grapevine somewhere that my boy Kanye was in the news yet again, for portraying himself as Jesus in this month's Rolling Stone magazine. Naturally I shy away from all theological attachments to today's music stars but still, as he quotes, they want him to be great but he can't say himself that he's great? I will defend Kanye till the end, his music means a helluva lot to me (especially Through The Wire), and the unequivical genius that he is suggests that although it may be brash, he has the right to say these things. Hmm, not everyone will agree with that, and i'm not gonna be those types who say "Oh I don't give a f*ck what you say", as welcoming as critical comments are, don't expect me to believe them :)

So as for me? Well i'm ok I guess, stuck between a rock and a hard place never knowing where to be, it's hard when you have a strong tie one place and a neccesary tie in another place. I feel I'm like a GPRS system thats always on and sending/recieving information, I forget a time where I wasn't thinking about something or another, never knowing whether to be here or there, regarding the future and the present, and no amount of inspired thinking myself will help. I guess for the short-term s*it there is, it is just that - short-term and when that will pass then things will change for the better after. Who knows - as you can tell I don't :)

So I leave you today confused I guess, but safe in the knowledge that Chantelle won Celebrity Big Brother, which, er, is great i guess? Oh and good luck to my boys today against Arsenal, live on BBC1 from 4.30. Ta-ta

Music - Aaliyah - Try Again

He who is persuasive (Who sells)...

Applause, applause no wait wait, dear readers I have an announcement to make... Well actually no i don't, just wanted to start off with something a bit more abstract and soixante-neuf than usual, what with my super dooper vision and very small handwriting...Compliment? More on that later.

Anyway, enough of that stuff, let's get down to some funky business to which your here, what's been happening since the last time I posted? Well, as you may remember, a short time ago I had ads and a Google search box on this site, which paid me every time someone used it or clicked on the ads, just for some pocket money for me (y'know, being a student isn't all grapes and caviar, no matter what they say on Hollyoaks), but Google caught wind of the fact I was making more money than they could handle, and were stereotyping the fact blogs don't get hits or ads. I went "Oi!" with a finger pointed in the air, but alas they didn't lsiten but said me this funky email instead:

Hello bbBear (Polite as ever)

It has come to our attention that invalid clicks have been generated on the Google ads on your site(s) (What??). Anywho, we have therefore disabled your Google Adsense account.

Thievery! Thy name is Google Adsnse (No link - they don't deserve it), so that's about it on the techinical front, which infiltrated my personal regions. But what else? Well, in the previous post I did mention about MySpace, which the Communist loves apprantly, but if you haven't seen my profile, check it out here, and do add me to your list, so we can create an army that can rid the world of MySpace and Google Adsense bwah-hah-hah! But the good thing about Myspace (Yes, it has good points to) is the fact it's opened my ears to new music - well new as in the sense I haven't heard it before, and I like to think of myself as open to new music, with its variance, so it's all good. New music that caught my ears and made me buy the album(s) (YES, i do buy music albums!) include: Hot Hot Heat, Panic! At the Disco and Copperpot. So do check them out, its all good....

So what else aside from being chided by Google and listening to new music? Erm, oh yeah this weeked was my housemate's 20-first birfday, with pics posted soon I believe, so check out his space for details, but it was good yo, with good food (pork scratchings), good drink (black Aftershocks), and good people (Myself and er.......well thats it really!), so don't believe the truth if you saw pix of me with bleary eyes, they're photoshopped i tells ya... Oh and a tip from me? Don't let drunken students go anywhere near toasters, bloody dangerous they are, both students and toasters alike, in some glorious evil malevolent matrimony...

So kids, that was a big ol' post, filled with chagrin and cheese, and as ever will leave you with a couple of news stories to check out till my next post, that include: the guys who tried to save that whale last weekend now face a £300 parking bill, and the news that scientists have discovered a spider can carry 170 times its body weight whilst hanging from a ceiling - now why can't humans do that...

Music - Panic! At The Disco - The Only Difference Between Martyrdom And Suicide Is Press Coverage

According to Pirates, you should really know...

I open my eyes, rub the sleep away and what do I smell in the distance.......that's right kids, A NEW POST!! Yes, with words, but no pictures this time, not for today anyway, my bandwidth on Filehigh does get chomped up a bit - damn those pesky large .bmp files... but still how are you today? I must say your hair looks nice, you should keep it like it...

So yes, this is now 2006, the Year of the Dog if you work by the Chinese New Year system, which seems to have all the problems of 2005, what with Lib Dem leader Charles Kennedy handed a vote of no-confidence soon, and the statistic that banks are robbed every 90 minutes within the EU. But hey, you didn't check on this blog to read those things did you? I bet you wanted some juicy gossip that you can tell your "friends" over MSN Messenger, or rather soon-to-be Windows Live Messenger, but alas, I know not to trust a medium of communication that literally holds no barriers and boundaries. I mean general stuff sure, but the in-depth nitty gritty bits, that would make you laugh, make you cry, make you wince, well no.

I guess I could tell you all about the holiday season just passed, with its dizzying highs and moribund lows, but aside from the general of eating too much, busting out of jeans and Glenn Ponder-ing, I don't wish to divulge too much. Sorry. But briefly, I did have an intreguing conversation about relationships the other day. To what do you define a relationship as, and does it involve compromises? Surely it can't be all one-way traffic, with a stern NO for whatever the other person wants? I blame reading on MSN Dating for me thinking all this, although greather heed should be thought of as to why I was there in the first place - damn random MSN links, but to say Yes to someone else inevitably means saying No to yourself, so what is the answer? I would say a slice of Battenburg whilst watching Dishy Des, forgetting all those problems and letting whatever happens happen. I guess the major thing I learnt this holiday season was to see how things go, adopting a wait-and-see approach. Although I don't wholeheartedly believe in it, I have grown accustomed to it and have thus realised that it does have its benefits.

So after all that I hope you are wiser and more knowledgable than before, if not, why not? I suggest clicking on the links to read the magic that lays within them. As for me, well I'm off to play Mario Kart Double Dash, I have a hankering to give Koopa a damn good spanking with a red shell, so on this day i bid you farewell and enjoy 2006 y'know, it won't last long i promise ya....well 360 days left to be honest but it sure as hell won't feel like it....
