No blog updates and no podcast make James displeased.

I haven’t anything to say this week. We haven’t got round to the podcast because of shitty equipment, power cuts and my lack of motivation. There could be celebrities coming out left right and centre and the world wouldn’t know about it.

We had an election, supposedly the highest turn out in decades, still only had around 64% of the country vote, which is nothing at all. That means 36% of eligible voters figured it wasn’t important enough for them to put in the effort. We now have to hang everyone in parliament. If that was true it’d be a more interesting result that what we actually had, a load of moany vinegar faced know it alls pouring statistics out of their moan holes all night.

At no point did anyone have a little laugh at the BNP, I don’t care how it’s meant to be impartial, they claim to speak for the average British family yet they only got around 500,000 votes, I’d get more votes than that, they clearly speak for fucking no one. Have you noticed, everyone that supports the BNP seems to work for them too? There’s no point to that comment, I’ve only just realised it. If you support Labour and you tell people you pop leaflets through peoples door they’d think you were a mental but if it’s the BNP you’d just think “oh, makes sense”. Odd.

Random news from around the world, just because there’s no podcast.

A Chinese man ended up stuck in river silt for 11 hours – because he was too embarrassed to call for help.

This man is being made out to be a fool. I would do exactly the same thing, I don’t care what you say, you would hold out as long as you could too. You’d be forever the idiot who fell in the mud, if that isn’t incentive enough to try your luck then I don’t know what is.

A council spent nearly £1,000 on a bouncer at a library to protect staff from “unruly” school children.

This is mental. How unruly can these kids be and how sweet would that job be? Clubbing kids to death in a library. “Norfolk County Council says the library in King’s Lynn was plagued by children “running about screaming and shouting”.” I love that they use the word plagued, like it was really a problem that didn’t just require staff going up to the kids and saying, look, you little fuck, get out or I’ll call your mam.

Exhibition /Rex

An art exhibition featuring a brush propped against a wall and pieces of wood strewn across the floor has been branded the worst in Britain.

Discarded nails, a bucket and an empty laundry bag also make up the display at Birmingham’s Ikon Gallery by artist Susan Collis.

Sucks to be you susan. Why can’t people just draw naked women anymore? It’s not that hard and it looks, awesome.

A Belgian schoolboy’s message in a bottle has been found on a British beach and returned to him – 33 years later.

Olivier Vandewalle was just 14 when he scribbled the note and dropped it into the sea from his dad’s yacht.

He forgot all about it until he received a surprise message from a woman claiming to have his teenage note.

I would seriously love this to happen to me, I used to put notes in bottles all the time as a kid, mainly because of the opening titles of the rescuers so most of mine said I’d be kidnapped but even so, it’d be nice to know someone out there would of been able to help.

End of post. I’ve nothing further to say.
