Thanks to Neil Gaiman's blog, I found my way to this series of amazon.co.uk book user reviews.

Like him, I found myself giggling like a schoolboy. Go read!

That is all.

He's a fairly well known writer of comics, novels and, lately, movies. He wrote the English-language script for Princess Mononoke, the movie Stardust was based on one of his novels and he co-wrote the recent Beowulf with Roger Avary (who co-wrote Pulp Fiction). One of my favorite writers on the planet!

In the past seven days, I've had to deal with losing 1/3 of my main band (Haiku Rd.) and getting kicked out of the other band I'd been helping to form as a side-project and as a solution to my need for a Celtic music fix.

I suppose I'm lucky; I've never had either one happen before. But to get smacked with both in one week? Kinda sucks. (pout)

Oh, for sure. So far, my house hasn't burnt down, none of my ex-bandmates have attempted to murder me with axe (nor have I them), and no one as attempted to drag me off to Guantanamo Bay for interrogation.

So far.

And all of the parties involved in the above are still on speaking terms, except one with me. So all in all, even that stuff could have gone worse.

I'm Bridge Over Troubled Water!
Which Simon and Garfunkel album are you?

haha, wow just when you think they've run out of internet survey topics.

Seriously! I'm just waiting for a 'which 20th Century Russian literary/artistic movement are you?' quiz; at that point, I'll know we're completely lost.

I did like "Bridge Over Troubled Water" when it came out in LP, but I opted for the "Old Friends" 3CD set. So I'm also a "Bridge" as well? I guess that matches my interest in Nahenahe Hawaiian music.
