Christmas

Christmas was mostly boring, but had its points. ( Read more... )

I hope yours went well too.

Finally, anniversary congratulations to turkmenbashi on his first five years as President-for-Life. We anticipate many decades - or, with current advances, perhaps even centuries - of leadership in his own inimitable style.

Oh, and also:

I saw the beginning of Gone With The Wind over Christmas, too. It took less than thirty seconds to put my back up. Revolting film.

On a brighter note, sbisson pointed out that there's a China Miéville christmas short story online over at the Socialist Review. I enjoyed it. Maybe you will too.

Also, we Neonites are supplying an evening of music at the Auld Hoose tomorrow (Wednesday the 29th) evening, if any of you fancy coming along. According to Finn earlier, it's starting about six and going on probably until either the place closes or we get chased out by a baying mob with blazing torches. No entry charge, no dress code, no discernible music policy apart from "arguably alternative most of the time" and pub bar prices (obviously, I suppose).
