I've always loved Queen and only recently discovered this was one of their songs - how did this escape me?!





p.s. did Vanilla Ice "steal" the beginning of Under Pressure in "Ice Ice Baby" ?

Many happy returns, PJ.

This is one of my favourite openers when I play guitar, I hope you like it.

Happy Birthday PJ!!

Happy B'day PJ

Thanks for the birthday wishes, all!
Loved all the posts- you all either know my taste in music quite well or I'm, uh, TOO predictable.

ps. Recaredo, looks like I'll need to download that Juanes song onto my iPod, thanks!



ps. my kid says to me today " mom, my present to you was managing to not be sent to the principal's office!"
I'm still trying to figure out how that was a gift to ME.....

I see Wayne has sussed me out



Grumpy is the new happy

I am up early to finish packing my bags I have got an appointment with those damn customs.

I will come back to provoke Richard

1. where can I purchase that cup? I have about 5 people I can give it to!

2. " I will come back to provoke Richard"
Oh good....it's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it.

Your coming back? I'm infuriated!

How did you know that would be enough to provoke me?

I'm so angry I'm gonna smash the submit button!!!

I have decided that I will do a regular spot , once a week and it is going to be called
"Rostoskys big issue of the week"

This week its about being charged excess monies just because something is labelled "green" "eco-something" "organic" or "enviro friendly" or "PC"

First a quick note about spaghetti : I dont like it.
"Why?" you may well ask.
Because, ( I would say in return) Because there are too many of them.

If, I wanted a thousand things on my plate at once, variation would be an important factor, which is not the case with spaghettis.

Anyways, that is not my big issue of the week this week.

I have a major issue with being sold something for an unreasonably jacked up price just because the item is preceded in its description with one of the "guilt words" (green, eco something, enviro friendly, extra tasty with prophylactic properties etc etc.)

when I buy a burger, I am so not interested if the contents of said burger are green , eco friendly or ( in the case of mac donalds prophylactic burger) can cause sterility in the adult male.

what I want is (a.) a good greasy burger that may or may not be addictive (b.) not to have to borrow to much money to purchase one.

I would also like it to be politically correct for the waitress to be wearing a uniform of my choosing,( and not have recourse to law when I mention it) but I am grown up enough to realise you cannot have everything for £4.17 ( including fries and a drink)

I dont particularly want it in an eco friendly box,( and definately not if its going to cost me) I was lucky my creator gave me four fingers and a thumb on each hand , which as happenstance would have it is ideal for putting a burger in directly, either hand will do allthough I prefer the right hand as I will be using the left one to hold my ciggy.

I have one issue left for macdonalds to sort out, and it concerns their restroom.. there is a sign displayed very prominently , it says "now wash your hands"

I feel that the washing of hands is actually a lifestyle choice and therefore require the sign to be changed to "you can wash your hands if your not too busy or if you can be arsed"
I will mention this issue to the staff at macdonalds and report back.

Really?

Yep really wayne, I have no problem with eating horse meat as long as its cooked well like anything else really.
Our local butcher gets crocodile meat and kangeroo meat ( I likes to call it "skippy")
meat is meat, they eat horses in france.

As with anything a good cut of horse meat cooked really well will beat a bad cut of beef/pig thats cooked poorly.

I do draw the line at dwarf meat though, as usually it comes from the older dwarves and tends to be tough, even if done in a slow cooker.

I have allways called cheap burgers from supermarkets "unspecific burgers" anyways, as I have allways doubted whats in them, I dont mind as long as there is no grisle, I hate grisle and thats why I dont eat ginsters pies, which I have renamed (due to grisley bits) as "Gimpsters pies"

I can just see you now Rossy, eating your burger to this glorious sound! I must get back to work! No burgers for me today

I’m not sure whether I’d like horse meat, but if it’s pretty well cooked… who knows.

Last night I found a fascinating documentary about Tomás Luis de Victoria on Youtube, produced by BBC. I loved it. I know this documentary lasts one hour, but worth it.
