Re: Amy Winehouse found dead
You're right about that, she was very big here.
I can't say I was surprised, but I was certainly disappointed - I really enjoyed her music. Whether her stuff was to your taste or not, she was very...

Re: Birthday Cake
It's for a very lucky and spoilt birthday boyfriend.
It's a chocolate cake, and all the bits and pieces are made of icing of one sort or another, so the whole thing (propellors and all) is edible.

Birthday Cake
I know I've not been about in ages, but I'm desperate to show this to someone. I've just made a Spitfire cake, and it was bloody hard and took bloody ages. And though it's not particularly accurate...

Re: Chris Brown sentenced for attacking Rihanna
I don't think they're still together, but I could be wrong as my flat mate asked me the same thing about an hour ago. That said, if they are still together the 100 foot restraining order lasting 5...

Re: Chris Brown sentenced for attacking Rihanna
Oh but it is twisted - Megrahi was treated in exactly the same way as any other criminal convicted under Scottish law; Brown, however, is treated as though he's special.
Why is it exactly that he...

Re: Lockerbie Bomber Returns to Libya
The hero's welcome was certainly uncalled for, and it's not going to do Libya, or the Libyan government, any favours on the world stage.
As for Megrahi himself, though, there are of course still...

Solitaire for Mac
So I've downloaded and then deleted about a million versions of Solitaire for the MC, either because they've had limited run times, or they were just crap. Does anyone know of a good one? I've like...

Re: T.S. Eliot: Hottie or Nottie?
What's even more interesting is the many many sources that Prufrock takes inspiration from. It's almost like a compilation poem. I once wrote a 14 (I think) page document deconstructing Prufrock and...

Re: Rosetta Stone
If we're putting orders in: Italian please.
I'm rather annoyed that the DS 'Coach' games have French and Spanish, Chinese and Japanese and goodness knows what else - but not Italian.
