As the silly season is upon us ‘these are a few of my favourite things!’
My bloggy woggy….well it appears to have worked for Russell Brand.
My favourite word at the moment is chutzpah! it means audacity. Ex: James showed great Chutzpah in single handedly wrestling an army of enraged mountain goats. Fabulous.
My favourite track at the moment is tranquilize by the Killers featuring Lou Reid. Its dark and electro. Nice.
My favourite book at the moment is Aspirin: The extraordinary story of a wonder drug. This book charts the history of aspirin from ancient Egypt to modern day. Its a surprisingly entertaining read. cracking.
What has annoyed me the most over the past few weeks is undoubtedly the Think! ads that have been running on tv and in the cinema. Shock and awe is all very well but they’re all rather unpleasant and I strongly disagree with trying to scare or shock people into doing things. It reminds me of the fire and brimstone approach to religion where clerics used the fear of Satan and hell to keep their congregations in check. Definitely not nice.
I hope everyone has a great Christmas!
