Journal Journal: The Simpsons "sponsor" in the UK on Channel 4

On sky TV (i.e. cable) the sponsor is Domino's pizza.

Now it has moved onto terrestrial TV (i.e. channel 4) the sponsor is Pizza Hut, and they use the EXACT same format of pre-show advertising. Its quite hilarious!

Journal Journal: My Donkey Konga critique.....

When playing any mini game, or indeed any level, there is this annoying *pause* where nothing happens before the actual action begins.

Example: The juggling bananas mini game, you get 77 seconds to juggle as many bananas as often as possible. As soon as Ive completed my turn, I want another turn to try and do better, I want to be right in the thick of it immediatly.

But no, the game forces you to wait 20-30 seconds saying *ready*.............................

Journal Journal: Bukowski

"At the age of 25 most people were finished. A whole god-damned nation of assholes driving automobiles, eating, having babies, doing everything in the worst way possible, like voting for the presidential candidate who reminded them most of themselves."

Journal Journal: Viz Comic, 25 Years old!

Viz Comic celebrates its 25th anniversary this issue.

For those unfamiliar, its creators are local (i.e. Newcastle, England) chaps who began selling the comic at university bars and punk gigs, as it grew in popularity in the North East, local chain music stores (Virgin, HMV etc) began selling it, even against the wishes of regional managers who ordered them to cease selling local magazines!

Journal Journal: Meta Moderating

Am I one of the only people on here who actually enjoys Meta Moderating?

I dont get as much chance to read slashdot as I would like to (due to work/uni/life) Ive got to read some highly intelligent posts which I may have previously either missed altogether, or just breezed over whilst skimming.

Journal Journal: Listening to Chelsea, and dreaming of tomorrow

As I type Chelsea are 2-1 down, 4-3 on aggregate against Monaco in the Champions League, they were 2-0 up, and by all accounts dominating the game, Id love to see them get through, watching fans go bezerk seeing there team victorious gives me such a charge its unreal.

I have a mix of excitement and axiety about tomorrow, apprently Newcastle v Marseille is a "high risk" game, and 700 police officers are on duty for the expected "3000" fans.

On Thursday 6th May I head over to France to see my local football (soccer) team Newcastle United play Marseille in the semi final of the UEFA cup.

This is a major event for the city of Newcastle, having not won any trophies for some 30+ years now.
