One of the rarest delights I enjoy in life is discovering a new band. This is something I put effort into; I listen to perhaps 100 new bands a year, if at the rate of 2 a week, more if I’ve purchased the latest edition of Hot Press. However it is very seldomly, say once [...]

Bi-monthly Narcissistic Round-up
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged film, music, tv on February 9, 2009 | 3 Comments »
So I finally updated my accompanying Films, Books and Music pages, and here is the run-down accordingly:
In Films, I have changed the format to cut down on my comments, and instead give a rating. I’d rather spend my time watching films than writing about them.
In Music, I’ve updated to what’s currently playing on my iPod. [...]
Mid-October Round Up
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged film, literature, tv on October 12, 2008 | 5 Comments »
It’s past 4am and I’m bright as a button, so time for a round-up.
I have changed the tag-line on my blog, to a Pascal quotation mapping my current position on the sphere of faith, reason, and doubt. It’s a challenge to myself, to continue probing, but leave myself open for every eventuality.
I’m hoping for some [...]
Music & Film Update

I updated my Music page – keeping up to date with what’s playing on my iPod. New artists this month include Death Cab, Arcade Fire, Damien Rice and Josh Ritter.
I also added a Films page; I am wearing my heart on my sleeve by revealing my DVD collection, commonly known as the window to [...]
Film Me in the Beard
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged film, music, tv on September 9, 2008 | 4 Comments »
This weekend I ended up watching no less than four films (happily, none by myself), so I thought I would share my opinions, for a change. These aren’t spoilers, read away.
The Darjeeling Limited
The Darjeeling Limited is an odd pseudo-comedy featuring Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody and Jason Schwartzman as estranged brothers on a train journey [...]
Film Update

Attention film fans! The majestic Lars and the Real Girl was released on DVD today in the UK and Ireland, it should be a definite consideration for your collection. I’m going to wait until Amazon catches on that it actually exists; I can either pay £12.99 to buy it from hmv.co.uk and get it posted [...]
I might be going crazy.

I had a brilliant link for you, a very interesting blog about the subtle (or not so subtle) political philosophy of The Dark Knight.
But it disappeared. It vanished. It appears the author of the post has removed it, or I’m mistaken about where I found it. Suspecting I had gone mad, I went to search [...]

300 and more…
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged film, literature, work on March 24, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Tonight I went to the cinema to watch 300.
Despite being hugely over-hyped, I enjoyed it. I kind of want to go spear someone in the neck now.
In other news, I’ve been rejected from two more graduate schemes (go me), but I think that one may have been due to the fact that I forgot they [...]
Graveyard Shift

So here I am, 04.25, supervising the prayer room, letting people and and out, making sure the place doesn’t burn down, that kind of thing. Been here since 11, leaving at 9. I’m getting kind of hungry actually, maybe some cereal will be in order in a while. It’s also pretty cold, there’s a noisy [...]
