Hurt Kermit's empire of dirt...

Via cleolinda

How cool is that? ETA theweaselking had also earlier posted it, and has a link to the 45Mb WMV file on SadKermit.Com. A site I may explore further when I've time...

Also? Sir Tim interviewed on World Service Business Daily (starts about twoo minutes into the Thursday show, no idea how they're web archive sytem works but it's here currently).

Had a good evening in the pub with nadriel chatting about random stuff. Have decided that The Cavern is a better pub than The Tavern, if only because the jukebox is better. Someone was paying to listen to lots of Meatloaf, but given I've lost my copy of Bat Out of Hell (I think my sister has it, no real matter), that's not actually as bad as it sounds...

G'night all.

Sad Kermit redux

I said in the edit update on my last post:

Well, I have been. I've just DL'd from the audio section a few tracks, and listened to Creep. If, like me, you're an early Radiohead fan (because Pablo Honey was their best album, I don't care if they disagree), go download and listen to Creep:

Hurt (NIN)
Creep (Radiohead)
Twilight (Elliott Smith)
Rainbow Disconnection (Updated Version)
Something I Can Never Have (NIN)

Um, yeah, explicit lyrics warning, but as a paen to how special Miss Piggy is/was? so very cool. Creepy, but cool.

Talent, Lifer, or Mandarin

Silly quiz which showed up from two disparate friends next to each other on my friends page, nhw here ad liz_marcs here. So that's a respectied international diplomat / SF reviewer and a US journalist / fandom commentator. Well, if it's good enough for them I suppose...( Talent, Lifer, or Mandarin )

Some of the questions were a bit 'um?', and a few were very US-centric "did you take the SKWDL test?" why no, no I didn't, because, y'know, I've never heard of it. Still, I got a fairly middle ground set of results (Liz got the same as me for Mandarin, but much higher for Talent and slightly lower for Lifer, Nicholas is way off the scale for Mandarin.

I have a huge text file of saved quiz results in notepad, when people do them I tend to fill in the quiz but not actually post them. At some point, if I get really bored, I may clear that file out. Be afraid, be Very Afraid.
