The other day I was on the television. I knew that I would be on television around this time but silly me forgot the date that it would be aired. It's only S4C but basically it's me looking slightly dazed after being pulled from the street to don a fez and tell a Tommy Cooper joke to the camera. This sounds easy but it's not. It's extremely hard to tell a joke to a camera surrounded by strangers and while wearing a fez. And you wouldn't know because I know for a fact that you haven't told a joke in front of a camera surrounded by strangers and while wearing a fez. Unless you're Eddie, in which case you have told a joke in front of a camera surrounded by strangers and while wearing a fez. Because you were with me and you failed at it, miserably. Because my foolish babbling was a hit and I managed to get included in the final cut. Three times. Which makes me approximately 136.6 times better than you will ever be in front of a camera. And again if this is Eddie I'm sorry for throwing up half my body weight on your carpet, I think that was unpleasant for everyone.
And here's our irony section: Me and Rob/Eddie were actually trying to film the Tommy Cooper statue for a Welsh Bacc film on Caerphilly but these 'professionals' beat us too it with their programme 'Bro' on Caerphilly. And we ended up being filmed ourselves. Haha. What? Is that not ironic enough for you?

So I was thinking about music as lots of people are at the moment. I like to write songs but most of them only actually become a few chords and some lyrics scribbled down somewhere, plus all of what's in my head, which is the best part. But in order to get it out of my head I need certain things, I already have a guitar and a bass and a keyboard and a mandolin and a harmonica but I don't have a string section and a synthesizer and a sampler and a drum machine and a horn section and a choir and and a steel drum. Especially a steel drum. These are the things I really need, because I'm like that with music, I'm fussy see. It's hard to advertise for it as well because the new songs I think of all need new components. I'll have to end up getting one of those lame composing software things, which cost money and no I'm not gonna steal it from a torrent site like most of you youths do.
What am I listening to right now?
Aphex Twin, Miles Davis and the ingenious New Jersey based radio station WFMU, which has a confusing argument between the DJ and a guy pretending to be a juggalo.
I'm sorry, bring me the urban dictionary.

What am I reading right now?
World War Z by Max Brooks
and Wuthering Heights, because I have to.
What am I watching right now?
True Blood, a vampire show that's apparently big in America . I'm giving it a shot and I'm intrigued so far and impressed by the lack of vampire cliches.
Blogger doesn't have accents which tells me not to be a stuck up pretentious twat.
Outnumbered and that's about it. I'm not watching too much telly.
And when I say right now. You know, I don't mean right now.
Yeah.
Stay frosty.

TRUE BLOOD.
Sarah will be happy that you are also watching it.
I told many people to but as usual no one listened to me, well except sarah.
meh, vampires aren't overly interesting
You are right Gwyn, but neither are people.
Luckily, True Blood isn't like Buffy/Twighlight/Blade. If there was anything else on other than The Wire I probably wouldn't be watching it.
I didn't fail, i just told a racist joke :)
