Abandoned Japanese Theme Park. (Oooohhh...)



I'm back. Handed in the project at lunchtime today. Then went to bed. Just woken up.

It's all over. Ish. For a year. Yay. I think.

Take a look at these photos of an abandoned theme park somewhere in Japan. Strangely beautiful, I think.

OFFICIAL: Prit is not gay!


Prit was on TV tonight! He was one of the 10 men on a new Channel 4 reality game show called Playing It Straight. Of course, we had to watch it.

The idea is that one girl has to pick one man from a choice of 10. The twist is that some of them are gay. If she picks a straight guy, she wins. Each episode she has to ask one or more of them to leave.

Prit was asked to leave in the first episode. I think it was the hair straighteners that did it.

(He's not actually gay, by the way)

American "Christians"



Check out this book review. You don't really have to read the review itself, the interesting part is the correspondence further down the page. Very "Christian".

Before you ask: No, I don't normally read weird small press book reviews. Neil Gaiman linked to it from his blog.
