This is me with a camera. Plus an awesome hat. |
Ah, the perils of choosing a blog title from a random page in the Dictionary Of Phrase And Fable. "I Am A Camera" is from Christopher Isherwood and his Berlin diary, being a book that inspired the film "Cabaret" which Conrad will never, ever see*.
300 - Rise Of An Empire
Ah, the ever-reliable bus poster as a stimulus MORE RELIABLE THAN THE BLOODY BUSES THEMSELVES I CAN TELL YOU - er - yes, quite. The bus poster <pauses to see if Rage turns up again> caught my eye.
Did the ancient Greeks possess compound recurved bows? I think not! |
First suit: "We gotta have a link to that other one, even though they all got killed. Let's call it "3,000" 'cos that way it's ten times more awesome!"
Second suit:"Nah we got it covered. Focus groups, peer assessment, market research, bribery and goat entrails all underscore "Birth of an Empire."
First Suit:" I can't even call it "600"? Cos -
Second Suit:"Dude, we already printed the posters."
Entropy. Or, Why Your Bedroom Is Such A Mess
The concept of entropy entails that disorder is always increasing in systems, described as the possible number of (thermo-dynamic) variations within that system. Ultimately all systems will reach thermodynamic equilibrium, having maximum entropy - and by this I mean the whole universe will be a completely uniform ylem with absolutely nothing happening.
Ylem. Much like sago pudding |
"Yes, Conrad, pretty brain-stretching. What does it have to do with my bedroom being a mess? and how did you know it's a mess? Are you stalking again, Conrad? The injunction cle-"

Dangerous Chemicals!
BOOJUM! introduced you last week to the hellish compound Chlorine Triflouride. The pair of idiots who invented this stuff must be getting bathed with it in the Twenty-Seventh Circle of Hell.

There are compounds so toxic, explosive, reactive, mutagenic and downright *£%##ing dangerous that sensible chemists will not work with them. Kind of how no actor wants to work with Gary Busey. Except he doesn't explode. Well, not much anyway.
Whoops! There he goes again. Second time this week. |
I know what you're thinking**. Ha! Gotcha! No pictures of cute puppies. No, today we continue to try and apply a little emotional balance into the lives of those unfortunate and unloved animals whose names begin with "W".
Behold the Walrus:
Eeek! World's worst vampire! |
So. Please, find a place in your heart for Odobensus Rosmarus!
(Latin for "Walrus". Do keep up!)
* It's a musical. I shall say no more
** Do you see! Do see what I did there! Sparta? 300? Aren't I - O you did.
