The Manual

Posted at 3:48pm on Friday, September 17th, 2004 by

Thanks to things for reminding me of The Manual (How To Have A Number One The Easy Way) by the KLF.

Which then brings on to the moment I’ve been waiting for all my life that, of course, I missed. This year’s Big Chill featured popdamage performing the seminal Chill Out live!

How very un-rock and roll

Want to see a Cure gig? Why not use your Amex Centurion card to jump the queue? (I’m only jealous ‘cos my boss is going). I suppose the card is the Amex ‘Black’ card… I guess that’s kind of apt.

Hmm… I’m not quite this good

So far my career online poker winnings (having been playing for 6 weeks) amounts to -$42. It would appear that this pales into insignificance compared to Lee-Anne Smyth, who earns �4,500 a week at www.ladbrokespoker.com (which I think sucks, btw, you should play at VCPoker instead).

The builders own up. Shame York is built on a bed of clay – no hidden catacombs here, unfortunately…
