What i love about this artist’s depictions of women is even the sexualized ones the woman is always genuinely happy and enjoying herself. Frolicking or making funny faces, she’s living her life and looking sexy while doing it, not sitting in a sexual pose for the audience’s view.

I always forget about Hilda and am so pleased when she randomly shows up on my dash. Always makes my day

Another classic tune.

Some of Ian’s reasons:

Summer, Buddy Holly, the working folly Good golly Miss Molly and boats Hammersmith Palais, the Bolshoi Ballet Jump back in the alley and nanny goats 18-wheeler Scammels, Domenecker camels All other mammals plus equal votes Seeing Piccadilly, Fanny Smith and Willy Being rather silly, and porridge oats A bit of grin and bear it, a bit of come and share it You’re welcome, we can spare it - yellow socks Too short to be haughty, too nutty to be naughty Going on 40 - no electric shocks The juice of the carrot, the smile of the parrot A little drop of claret - anything that rocks Elvis and Scotty, days when I ain’t spotty, Sitting on the potty - curing smallpox …
Health service glasses Gigolos and brasses round or skinny bottoms Take your mum to Paris lighting up the chalice Wee Willy Harris Bantu Stephen Biko, listening to Rico Harpo, Groucho, Chico Cheddar cheese and pickle, the Vincent motorsickle Slap and tickle Woody Allen, Dali, Dimitri and Pasquale balabalabala and Volare Something nice to study, phoning up a buddy Being in my nuddy Saying hokey-dokey, Sing Along With Smokey Coming out of chokey John Coltrane’s soprano, Adi Celentano Bonar Colleano

What are some of your “Reasons to be Cheerful”?

A light vent.

I stopped posting here for quite a few years.  This was due to a number of reasons, well two mostly; 1) I had a job and really couldn’t be bothered with much after getting home, and 2) The only thing one of my housemates does is play games online, and this site (plus our shite internet) really caused a lag spike in that. Now, I’ve been fired from that job and we’re (once NBN send out another tech or two) getting better internet.  So, who knows, maybe I’ll once more be a regular here. But that’s not what I want to vent about today.  For that, let’s jump to the cut.

The Flannan Isles Mystery

The Flannan Isles (also known as the Seven Hunters), named after an Irish priest called St. Flannan, have been the subject of a 100+ year old mystery. On December 15th, 1900 the crew of a passing ship, the Fairwind, were angry and surprised that no guiding light from the newly-built Flannan Isles lighthouse appeared to be in operation. This was unusual since the lighthouse was always operational. The crew from the Fairwind decided to investigate.

No internet today. My ISP is lazy.

Well Wally Watchers, or whatever my equivalent is, I won’t have my internet hooked up in North Adelaide for 10 to 20 business days. So any updates by me will likely be slow as I’ll be using the free wi-fi from the pub next door.

First of all; aww, memories.  I’ve being going through my old “personal” tag due to a mild case of extreme boredom, brought on by a lack of internet.  (Can you see why I chose to reblog this specific post?). Yes, Adam of 6 years and 7 months ago, your poor future self will also be suffering from an abundance of internet lack.  Only this time it’s more due to NBN and their dearth of technical technicians.  Also, this time I have 200gbs of phone data to serve as a life line.  Ah, the slow march of technology. Some things change, some stay the same.
