This Is The End. Russell Brand - Jeremy Paxman.

Russell Brand appeared on Newsnight with 

Jeremy Paxman to discuss some politics recently.

Russell had guest edited the New Statesman and his political views seem to have cast doubt

upon his credentials to undertake such a task. 

Jeremy fires some taxing questions his way and grills Russell in the same manner he would a fully fledged member of parliament. 

Russell however, responds more eloquently, intelligently and realistically than any politician would under similar questioning. 

Disposable Monday #3

When it runs low there will be less splashing out.

Saving Money. It's so important these days to do it effectively just to be able to keep your head above the water. Now more than ever it seems since money, much like water, seems to flow in the same direction; back to where it came from. It merely passes through the fingers allowing you to keep only what you need at the time. It is a delicate balance that needs to be maintained. Keep too much of it and the ocean has less to give and there is going to be a drought. If the ocean doesn't let it go, there is going to be a drought. The ocean needs the river as much as the river needs the ocean. So what happens when the river runs low and the ocean does not want to let go? 

Disposable Monday. #1

As with most things, pleasant or unpleasant, they have a beginning, a middle and an end. Typically, Monday is not only the beginning of something unpleasant but also the end of something pleasant. The start of the working week is a weekly event that is universally despised by the majority of the clock punching public. But it's got to start somewhere I guess and we all love to hate it. A Monday moan is a weekly tradition as much as Sunday lunch is. If only Monday was as disposable as the rest of modern life has become.

My brain seems to be permanently wired towards video games.

It had been a horrendous week at work. One of the worst weeks I had experienced in my current job. My faith in humanity had been depleted even further than usual and hope for any kind of future, let alone a bright one was gone. But, that week was over. It was the weekend and Saturday being the only day of the week that I do get to spend with my family was marred slightly by the rotten headache I awoke with that persisted throughout most of the day. I did of course try to make the best of that time as it is rather precious. Modern life affords us far too little time nowadays and time is the only thing in this world that cannot be replaced when it is gone.

More Funny Stuff.

This was e-mailed to me some time ago. I found it completely hilarious. So much that I posted it wherever I could and now it is here.


Remember it takes a college degree to fly a plane, but only a high school diploma to fix one. Reassurance for those of us who fly routinely in our jobs.

After every flight, UPS pilots fill out a form, called a 'gripe sheet,' which tells mechanics about problems with the aircraft. The mechanics correct the problems, document their repairs on the form, and then pilots review the gripe sheets before the next flight. Never let it be said that ground crews lack a sense of humor.
Here are some actual maintenance complaints submitted by UPS pilots (Marked with a P) and the solutions recorded (marked with an S) by Maintenance engineers. 

By the way, UPS is the only major airline that has never, ever, had an accident.
