If you’re an experiencer of ASMR, then you could do worse than have a good listen to Your Love by the Aston Shuffle.

Disordered Thoughts and Curmudgeonly Ramblings
The festive season is definitely upon us – I can’t get It’s Beginning to look a lot like Fishmen out of my head.
Still, I suppose it’s better than getting earwormed by the original version…
1: People who can’t tell the difference between ‘balmy’ and ‘barmy’ should be shot.
2: Kim Deal’s vocals on Here Comes Your Man remind me of the high school sweetheart I never had.
3: The government’s new National Broadband Network ads look like the containment grid’s broken down again.
That is all
As my trivia challenge from last week seems to have stunned everyone into silence, the time is probably right to provide the answers…
* During the cold war, the United States deployed nuclear-warhead tipped bazookas.
TRUE! It was called the Davy Crockett, and was one of many insane weapon systems designed to defend the Fulda Gap.
* While Governor of California, Ronald Reagan launched a dressmaker’s dummy into orbit.
FALSE! This was however a plot line from the short lived Brother Power the Geek.
* Pope John Paul II was a member of the Harlem Globetrotters.
TRUE! The Globetrotters hand out honorary memberships to all kinds of people, including the late Pontiff.
* Alfred Hitchcock had no navel.
TRUE! Hitchcock was, of course, born with one, but by the time of his death he’d had so much abdominal surgery that it had completely gone missing.
That’s it! Go make your own entertainment!
Been dividing my time between feeling horribly run down and depressed, and building my knight titan (it’s actually starting to look pretty good). Neither are leaving much time for blogging.
But hey, worse things happen in Finland…
(It’s probably sad that I immediately identified this… thing… as being Finnish from the shots of the Sibelius Monument).
