Audience of One

The seventh miscellany

Quote from a Sun football pundit on the radio, commenting on Rooney’s untimely exit: “That was one of the worst decisions I’ve ever seen in a football match! Of course, according to the letter of the law it was a red card offence, but…”.

Text from a t-shirt I bought recently: “Late take off: the newborn type that surfers in the world enjoyed it”.

Some more search terms:

• rhino costumes
• deviantart marsupial pouch
• famous songs penguin cafe orchestra

This last one is particularly perculiar: I have never mentioned the Penguin Cafe Orchestra on this website before, and have in fact until yesterday never heard any of their music. A sudden desire gripped me, however, and yesterday (without seeing this search term in the logs) I bought a PCO song. How incredibly perculiar. (It’s pretty good, if you’re interested.)

Muse have decided to spite me by removing the preview of their album from their website just as I discovered it was possible to play it there. Yes, I know it was released in Japan before any other country so I could just have bought it here. CDs are expensive in Japan though. (You thought they were expensive in the UK? You have much to learn.)

You should go watch the Studio Ghibli back catalogue, in Japanese if you can get them (with English subtitles of course). I saw Castle in the Sky on Friday, and it’s brilliant.
