It's funny, but just as I read this, my flat was shaken by an earthquake, and I'm sitting here wearing nothing but my underpants.
Worry ye not, earthquakes are common in Japan, and this one just rocked the flat for 40 seconds or so. Still, I'd hate to have been found like this.

Goatees never look cool. If you want to look younger then take my advice - drink less, go to bed earlier, and smile more. Add up all the time you'll save my not having to shave round the ridiculous thing, and spend the extra time shopping for some new clothes. I always find that Ted Baker is good fo...

A few off the top of my head...though mainly focused on the UK, and mainly in the 80's. Gil Scott Heron : B-Movie (about Ronald Reagan), Johannesburg (S.Africa), Gun (Everybodys got a pistol, everybodys got a 45"), South Carolina (building of a nuclear plant) and of course The Revolution Will N...

The drummer on this album was actually the renowned drummer/vocalist Ian Thomas. As well as this album, he's also played on George Michael's "Faith" & "Listen Without Prejudice", Scott Walker's "Tilt", S Club 7's "7", Hue & Cry's "Next Move",...

You're right that we wouldn't mock a Muslim obituary, but that's only because our lack of understanding of this faith would make us uncomfortable doing so. What strikes me is that this women was already in her mid-twenties and the mother of a 6-7 year old child at the time of her adoption. Is that c...

In the wrong hands, a syringe can become a WoMD (Weapon of Monkey Destruction).

The CD + DVD version, with bonus tracks Impatience and Too Blue, was released on Wed Sep 10th in Japan, so Perfectblue and I have had it since then. Strangely enough, the 1996 John Harle CD, Terror & Magnificence, was released in Japan on the same day, so I bought that too (EC sings three songs ...

I can't make out the writing, but it doesn't look like the Japanese copy, and I should know because I've had mine since Wednesday.

is it likely to be the best thing ever, or is it something of very little value ?

No more random guessing.

Is it something that would be likely to be found in Nick Lowe's hands ?

Is it the Hoover Factory ?

Guess Clint got tired of people laughing at his mule.

Or maybe they're just homophobic shithead bigots.

Cruisin' - Huey Lewis & Gwyneth Paltrow

They went on sale in Tokyo record stores yesterday, and one of the listening devices had all three bonus disks available for listening. My, the time just flew by. It's been quite a week - first Elvis at Fuji Rock, then a jolly good friend burned me a copy of North, and now the re-issues, all in the ...

My thought projection must have encountered some atmospheric distortion. That's a minor clue. I'll keep trying to transmit. Smell the frequency. Be generous with the praise - the above quoted lines contained enough clues to make it an absolute no-brainer. My fourth guess was going to be an (Olivers...

Got your thought projection Rope.

It's a nuclear bomb. (The real type as owned by the USA, not the imaginary ones as owned by Saddam)

it's a human skull, or skeleton or bone of some kind.
now what do I win ?

is it a stuffed dog ?

your mayor is awfully young

And don't forget the Greasy Spoon English breakfast. Impossible to get in Tokyo before lunchtime, might I add.

PB, cheek-to-cheek ? You mean this one with the strawberry ?

"Now I'm dead, now I'm dead, now I'm dead, now I'm dead..."

I have a Ken Dodd album, and at least 2 of the tracks would have got my vote above the Boo Radleys, The Farm & The Icicle Works.

Well it's not me, if that helps to narrow it down a bit.
