Y'know things that are all the rage? Blogs. Everyone has one; or at least had one before Facebook, Twitter et al diluted the realtime pool.
Since I'm nu-old skool — and watching endless streams of people writing #incomprehensible #twaddle u n me l8r lol @knickerlicker is stupefyingly pointless — I figured why not make a blog? The main difference here compared with other people's blogs is that instead of being limited to one topic, you get a little slice of everything all mashed up. Now Im dahn wiv da yoof.
N.B. The views expressed herein are not my own: they have been carefully shaped by a barrage of mainstream media propaganda and fill-in-the-blanks guesswork. Also, I'm prone to lying for the sake of entertainment.

Magic isn't dead
· 428 words (munches about 2 mins)Magicians these days are a far cry from Paul Daniels and Debbie McGee of my era. It’s good to see that some of them still take their craft seriously. Enter David Penn.
Obama Bin Laden
· 772 words (eats up about 4 mins)Do the stories of Osama and Obama share more than just 80% of the letters in their names?
Enter the velocirapture
