The Accidental Terrorist

Posted by monza gorilla , 29 December 2007 - - - - - - · 36 views

This will be the last entry for a while, because I just can't be bothered anymore.

Anyway, that said, I was thinking about things and stuff and, as if from nowhere, I remembered something I did many years ago, at work, which resulted in nobody getting killed or maimed.

I made a rocket. Out of a number of ballpoint pen refills. You know, the metal...

The Fat Of The Land

Posted by monza gorilla , 31 October 2007 - - - - - - · 47 views

A government think tank (now there's an oxymoron) here in the UK has announced that we'll all weigh 800 lbs by the year 2050 or some such, and that we're all going to die of obesity. As opposed to dying of C. Difficile. Or MRSA. Or apoplexy at stupid government bullsh!t. Anyway, they've decided that it's not the fault of the poor...

Stop! I Want To Get Off!

Posted by monza gorilla , 27 September 2007 - - - - - - · 20 views

I've noticed a growing trend in the various media, recently, championing the "let's get away from it all and live in a cave and eat lentils" school of thought. On TV we have such shows as "A Place in the Sun", "Escape to the Country", "It's Not Easy Being Green" (A favourite of mine :blush: ) and...

En Vacances

Posted by monza gorilla , 30 August 2007 - - - - - - · 28 views

It's holiday time for the gorilla clan; tomorrow we'll be off to a cottage in the middle of nowhere (or Ardnamurchan if you really want to know) to commune with the pine martens and perhaps sail across to the islands. In a boat. But there is vexation. It's known as the M6. The second largest car park in the UK after the M25. Especially when you...

Elixir Of Youth

Short entry pending a forthcoming tome.

Long, long time ago, on this forum, I said I found German cars too clinical. Soulless. Then I bought a Golf. And now I've sold it. Because it was like a video game. Great velocity and no feeling. Total efficiency. Total detachment. And too much elastic trickery for me. And too many driven wheels. And I've...

Noah, Wherefore Art Thou?

This one follows on quite neatly from the "Are We Insane?" entry. Here in the UK, as some may have noticed, there has been quite a lot of flooding. Much wailing and gnashing of teeth. It's global warming! It must be! Al Gore says so. So does Madonna. It's true! But. Let's look at it rationally as opposed to hysterically....

Shed

Posted by monza gorilla , 13 July 2007 - - - - - - · 28 views

I built a shed. A man needs a shed. A haven far from the hurly burly and the womenfolk. A place to whittle and to saw. The headquarters for your grand plans and schemes. A repository for all those manly things that no one else could understand. Power tools. Spokeshaves. Bradawls. Tiny little screwdrivers. Allen keys. Mmmmm. Sanctuary.

Are We Insane?

Posted by monza gorilla , 01 July 2007 - - - - - - · 36 views

Thought of the moment, chez gorilla: are we (the human race) out of our tiny little minds? What am I talking about, you may ask. Or not. No matter, it's all about numbers. Population. More and more and more oxygen thieves and space wasters. Our duly elected goverment says we need more housing to accommodate all the people. We need to grow and prosper....

The title says it all, really.

Inspiration From America

This is not a new entry. The original got spammed with ads for Viagra and porn - I've kept the addresses as they may come in useful............
There was only one comment from Steve, so we've not lost anything important.


Well, it's time for some more bloggery.
I convincingly missed my self imposed Christmas Eve deadline and then failed...
