Bored so thought I would say something here

Having watched some television just recently a few things have struck me - yeah my daughter was throwing bricks at me!

Firstly being a keen Xfactor viewer I wish Alex all the best, top performance mate, may he have a long, oh perhaps just a decent christmas at number one, and enjoy his only top ten hit, after all once the tv programme finishes that the end of most of these people.

Not sure if you are aware of Peppa Pig, but apart from being horrible, some things stand out....Mrs Rabbit seems to work 12 jobs and still has time to bring up 2 kids - yeah a rabbit with only 2 kids something wrong there! (jobs include, bus driver, recycle yard operative, ice cream seller, supermarket checkout operative, museum receptionist & cafe worker at musem the list goes on.....)

Recently they went to the dentist - yeah Mrs Rabbit was the assistant, after giving the kids a check up, the wily old dentist spots the dinosaur (george pig's toy) has dirty teeth and proceeds to clean them - no doubt for another polish scrub fee of £16!

Adverts are also popular (im not one for the bbc!) There is one advert from the government about drink driving, when a guy goes into the bar and the barman goes off on one (unusually he wasn't Australian - hehe :)) but he was a failed actor as he goes through his routine, finally asking whats it to be then? I think at that point my response would be nothing mate, Im off next door to get bladdered in peace!

Renault have recently started showing an advert for one of their boxes, oops cars. They show all the things we said we wouldn't do, kiss girls (ew what a thought eh? lol) own a computer, have kids etc... Think the moral of the advert is that yes you are a weak fool and have done all the things you said you wouldn't, be strong to yourself and at least hold true to one thing and not own a Renault!

Nintendo are currently advertising with several celebratiy families/celebraties, being a Pompey fan I recognise the Judas B*stard RedCrap but the others I am lost on, perhaps I should Hot magazine or something to work out who the hell they are....perhaps they are from the jungle maybe thats why I dont know who they are...

The Barclaycard advert with the water tube across the city is very well and good, but the question I ask....how does he get to work? Does he catch the bus in his trunks - as he left all his work clothes at work.... Another thing he paid for a banana before it was scanned....

Going.........

Well I have been out and now come back in and logged in (eventually) to what was my live space - doesn't feel like mine anymore! Think I will give it a couple of days to see if any further improvements are made (suggestion, turn off the enforced changes from yesterday). If nothing has improved then I think its time to say goodbye and turn this off,

Can anyone suggest a decent blogging site, where you are free to see other people (strangers) blogs and comment on them with out being in your "network" without them being a messenger friend etc.....

This is my generation, baby

WHAT HAVE THEY DONE (YES I AM SHOUTING!) I AM OLD AND DONT LIKE CHANGE, PARTICULARLY WHEN YOU CANT FIND HALF THE STUFF YOU WANT, LIKE FOR INSTANCE UPDATED SPACES - HOW CAN OTHER PEOPLE OUTSIDE OF YOUR "NETWORK" SEE YOU SPACE?

I can see now they have FACEBOOKED spaces......WHY you are two different products aimed at two different things.

I SHOULD OF GUESSED SOMETHING WAS IN THE PIPELINE AFTER MY PAGE VISITS HADN'T CHANGED YESTERDAY.....

Hopefully soon I can figure out wtf they have done and make some changes to my poor brain, in the mean time I may just curse some more at mickeysoft - Im not buying Vista and will settle for my old version of office now!
