Five Things

Thursday, January 4th, 2007

Kenny Kerr tagged me with the 5 Things meme. So here you go, five things you didn’t know about me. Though I guess that depends on who you are. If you are my mum you know them all… probably. If you are from Texas you probably don’t know any of them. In fact you probably don’t even know who I am. All very odd I say.

  • I lived for 5 years in Zimbabwe. My folks moved there not long after my sister was born. I want to retire to Zim one day, if it comes right.
  • When I make tea for others I place my mug on the far left so I know it is mine.
  • I cut short my photographic ambitions because I realised taking photos of ducks, strangers and lightbulbs is a worthless life pursuit. Unless you are a photojournalist you are not contributing much. Sorry.
  • I really don’t think I am a good coder even though it is my career. I’m good with ideas but someone else should be coding them, really. Let me do the prototyping.
  • I still have to start at January to figure out what order the months of the year come in. January, February, March… ah, April.

And now my 5 victims; Brian Delahunty, Derek Lakin, Fiona Haughney, Jon Newman and Bob the Builder (imagine all his dirty secrets eh.)

The Unplugged Mood

Friday, May 5th, 2006

How does the world see you?
“Belle & Sebastian” would say like “Another Sunny Day.”

Will I have a happy life?
It will be a “Strong” life, a “Robbie Williams” life.

What do my friends really think of me?
“Rachid Taha” says I am “Barra Barra” but I haven’t got a clue what he is on about.

What do people secretly think of me?
That I am looking for the “The Meaning Of Soul” but am somewhat of an “Oasis” in the desert.

How can I be happy?
“Do,” just do, like “The White Stripes.”

Will I ever have children?
I will “Still Take You Home” to spawn “Arctic Monkeys.”

What is some good advice for me?
To “Feel” “Robbie Williams” up. Go on, you know you want to.

(My iPod is playing a lot of Robbie Williams this morning. What gives?)

How will I be remembered?
For my “Faithless” belief in weapons of “Mass Destruction.”

What is my signature dancing song?
It is an “Evergreen” song for the “Faithless” amongst us.

What do I think my current theme song is?
It took “15 Minutes” to figure out but then I had “The Strokes” of luck.

(That was a terribly tortured sentence.)

What does everyone else think my current theme song is?
It was a “Massive Attack” on my friends when they realised I was so “Sly.”

What song will play at my funeral?
“The Strokes” will line up alongside the pews under the “Evening Sun” and play.

What is my day going to be like?
It will be “The White Stripes” on a mirror finishing with “One More Cup of Coffee.”

The iPod Meme. Instructions: Go to your music player of choice and put it on shuffle. Say the following questions aloud, and press play. Use the song title as the answer to the question.
