Apologies for the brief interruption to the Top 5. I’m sure you’re all on the edge of your seats to find out who are in the top spot. It’s like the Red Planet contest all over again. This is just a quick post to say that there’s been another explosion of writers on Twitter. This [...]

All Time Top 5 Messiahs Part 3.
3. The Messiah – ‘Deep Impact’ Yeah. Yeah. Big spaceship called The Messiah that the Earth thinks is lost, only for it to re-appear and the crew sacrifice their lives in order to save the human race. So far, so allegorical. But the real reason this is in the top five is down to the [...]
All Time Top 5 Messiahs Part 2.
4. Neo – “The Matrix” Never has an actor’s natural state of being been used to better effect. Keanu’s natural look of bewilderment and befuddlement mean that there’s very little acting required on his part. Second to the “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” references, the Christ allegory is pretty bloody obvious. The Chosen One. Betrayal. Resurrection. [...]
All Time Top 5 Messiahs Part 1.
5. Buddy Christ – “Dogma” It’s Easter and I have a hankering for an all time top 5. As I’m already destined to go straight to hell, do not pass ‘Go’, do not collect £200, then why not the Top 5 Messiahs in Popular Culture? It is – after all – the Greatest Story Ever [...]

Captain Birdseye Can Kiss My Arse
Christ on a bike. I don’t know why this product annoys me so much. Maybe it’s the mediocre, Middle England, middle class aspirations packaged up for consumers in bite sized portions in time for the recession. Maybe it’s the advert on a weirdness level so high only really weird dogs and cats can make sense of [...]
My Blank Pages
Well, the car finally blew up. Cock. But, in an attempt to put a silver-lining on this particularly gloomy cloud, at least I’ve had the day at home to do some writing. Which I have singularly failed to do. Double Cock. And then had some bad news from work. Which I probably can’t talk about. [...]

All My Idealism Has Vanished With My Hairline…
“Your right leg, I like. I’ve got nothing against your right leg. The trouble is, neither have you.” Hello. How are you? It’s been a couple of days since my last post. Sorry about that. Have you missed me? I’ve missed you. Pining like a little lost puppy. “Have they called? Have they written?” I’d [...]
