Our Leader Drunk on the Radio

Seems he was drunk on the radio the other morning, or very hungover....if you ask me he always sounded groggy, and he always looked half drunk.

Lily Allen - It's Not Me It's You

I just got my wife this Lily Allen CD in Xtravision, it's only 7.99, well worth it I reckon, me any my wife and the kids have liked Lily for a few years now, that Ska, Reggae, Chav thing she has going on is pretty cool, I like her music and her Lyrics, I'd say she's my favorite mainstream artist without a doubt, and for less than 8 euro she gives us a CD and a DVD, both are well worth listening to and watching...not only that....if you put your CD into your computer you can download individual tracks (Bass, Drums, Vocals etc.) for all the songs of the album, so when you're bored you can remix her stuff if you don't like it enough the way it is.

OMG

Oh My God, I haven't been blogging in ages, actually never really got into the whole blogging thing by the looks of things, it's not that I have nothing to say....it's just...actually no I've nothing to write here, nothing worth reading anyway, I prefer reading blogs than writing them, I've given up on Apples video store for the moment, I'm still cycling but I'd forgotten how miserable the weather can get over here, I've sold my decks and given up on DJing, almost....I've gone back to using DJ1800 on my computer with all my itunes tracks, this is a great bit of software, just upgraded to the latest version which works even better than before, well the itunes library shows up above the mixer, and there's pitch lock on players, I only encountered pitch lock on a Technics CD player a while ago and thought it was the business as vocals sped up or slowed down don't always sound the best.....I tried this software before with a USB mixer but it didn't work properly as there was a sound delay somewhere, a proper controller might work but the keyboard controls work good enough.

World Cup 2010

This is nearly over, I've been neglecting my blog because I've been busy watching the football, no really I've only watched one match, the noise of the horns was wrecking my wifes head so she wont let me watch any more, I must watch a few more matches before it's over, I knew we'd do brutal in the Eurovision song contest, but after seeing Germany win I figured they could probably do well at the football too, I meant to put a few quid on them but never got around to it, I guess the odds would be shit if I backed them now, will they win, if they do I'll be kicking myself.

2012

OK, after renting some videos on itunes over the last month or so, I have to say I haven't rented anything good at all, is the choice of films worse than what they have in xtravision, yes it probably is, but out of all of them, this film has to be the worst, I rented a few movies with good reviews and high ratings but I didn't like them, I hadn't read anything good about 2012 but I thought maybe these people are being too critical, maybe it's not so bad, well the truth is yes, this is a terrible film, but the earhtquake chasing the car scene is one of the funniest things I've ever seen, I'll give that bit five stars.

Blogging

Well I always thought you had to be from somewhere down the country to be a blogger, but that's no longer the case, you can even live in Dublin and be a blogger these days, 'what's it all about?', you'll have ask another blogger but from what I can gather it's like an online diary or something, like facebook or myspace but without the hassle of having to talk back to people, you can rant about whatever you want, will somebody else end up reading it, yeah they might do, then again they might not...'what's the point?', again, you'll have to ask another blogger, I'm just here to waste time at the end of the day, yes, mine and yours.

NB: A 'blog' is not a 'bleeding dog', they are different things.

iTunes

I started buying music via itunes a few years ago, it's just so handy, the hassle of going into a shop like HMV and having to look for a CD, maybe even having to ask some staff have they got a particular album...'well it's not in stock but we can order it for you if you fill out this form, we should have it in 8 to 10 weeks, blah blah blah....'no I love itunes, it has nearly everything I want, and now that you can rent or buy films on it, well that's just deadly, xtravision will probably never get that fiver I owe them now, I bought 'Annie' the other day for my daughter to watch with the fiver xtravision gave me just to try it out...grand quality, 1.5 gigs, DL complete in about 10 mins, much quicker than going to the video shop....and handier, a lot handier.
