The Dark Knight

Just came back from the Dark Knight (FINALLY). I thought it was really good and you should go and see it. Don’t want to throw out any spoilers (even tho most of you must have watched it), so all I can say is it that I think almost everything is rubbish, so this must make it a good film. It definitely shouldn’t be a 12A though. A 15 would be more sensible. I’m 28 and it was a bit much for me at times, pity the young kid (barely 10). i'm sure he'll have nightmare tonight...

my favourite pastime...

I spend so much of my time reading random things on the internet. Sometimes I stumble on interesting random facts, for example:

  • There is a piano on the top of Ben Nevis, the UK’s highest mountain, put there by some dundonian removal men in the 1980s.
  • The world’s first real intercity, passenger-carrying rail service was the Liverpool and Manchester Railway. It used Stephenson’s Rocket as its locomotive and on its opening day in 1830 a Member of Parliament managed to get himself run over and killed by one of the trains.

i have a dream...

Or I should say, I had a dream, last night. I don’t remember what it was about, but it was significant for one reason. Last night, Danny Devito was in my dreams.


I don’t know why he was in my dream. I can’t remember what he was doing in my dream. But he was definitely in my dream. He was most likely playing a quirky cameo role in an offbeat dream I was having though…

Anyway, the question to you my friends is, who was in your dreams last night? Let's throw in a carrot, best answer wins a biscuit.

wordle...

This is pretty cool, a wee app that let’s you visually look at the occurence of words in documents, or in web pages. Stuck my blog in first, not sure how far back it manages to look, think it maybe just looks at all the posts on the first page
