If I had a mood indicator like livejournal it would be a picture of me (I think I'd be a marmoset) and i'd be on the ground, beaten and bloody with most of my teeth knocked out. I'd be smiling like I was crazy or something. A giant gorilla (think King Kong) in a suit would be hitting me over the head with a monitor (think MCG scoreboard) and screaming "you love it! tell me how much you love it!" *BASH BASH* and I'd be screaming "yes, keep doing it, hit me again". All of my friends would be standing around with their hands out saying "take our hands, it's that easy" and I'm spitting my broken teeth and pieces of kidney into their hands and saying "just two more weeks wait" over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

Can someone mock that up for me?

The smile is fading.

It's supposed to have happened. I didn't feel a disturbance in the force... like a million MP3s were just snuffed out... but it doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Anyone who wants the music I had on MP3.com can go get it at MP3.com.au/Approximate.

I still like 60kph Ton but the rest is pretty ... unfinished.

VM wraps up his CD purchases of the year, giving the White Stripes elephant thingy his top CD of the year award. Personally I hate the band but I must admit that I haven't sat down with headphones and listened to the CD, my hate is based purely on stuborness and the fact they can't seem to play their instruments, and that this inability to play appears to be deliberate. But I promise to sit and listen to this album at some point in the future. I will borrow from Heath, who loves them like they're his kids or something.

I haven't listed what I've bought this year, and the thought of digging through and figuring out a list fills me with yuck...

Photos of Walken @ Revolver with huge thanks to Kenn who I'm sure got in everyone's way while taking them, as all good rock photographers should.
