Raiméis II

I just discovered another Ráiméis in our blogosphere, started [and ended] by Caitlín Jim last February. Pity she didn’t keep it going.

Next generation

Haven’t had a Gaeilge post in yonks, I must attempt to string a few words together one of these days. The only related news I have is that the next generation of Maca [maca óg we'll call him] who has just started school has already developed a wee grá for the language. Everyday he comes [...]

Get well soon Richard

As you’ve probably read already, Richard Hammond, presenter on Top Gear & Brainiac was involved in a serious crash yesterday when he attempted to break the British land speed record. They were filming for Top Gear on an airfield near York (UK) when Richard’s car veered off course and crashed at approx. 300 mph. He’s [...]

This week I ‘ave bin mostly listening to…

Audioslave: Revelations. One of the first things I did when I got connected yesterday was to download Audioslave‘s recently released 3rd album Revelations. A revelation it is not. It’s also not an album to win over any non-Audioslave fans, who will probably find it a touch boring or think that all the songs sound the [...]

Back in the saddle again…

Dia dhuit!! I’m back … hello … hello? Anybody? Shit, I think they’re gone …

A conversation with the big fella

This is deadly, via TCAL, iGod. Myself and the big lad don’t always see eye to eye… Me: Howya sham, what’s the crack? God: Is it the only one? Me: What? Is what the only one? God: Didn’t you understand it? Is that a rhetorical question? Me: No I didn’t. What are you talking about? [...]

Fun with headlines

Seems like as good a time as any to take a look at today’s headlines… Reuters: Mid-Atlantic hit with flooding Hmm… yeah … that’s why they call it an ocean dipstick. What next … send reporters to investigate rumours of snow in Antarctica? BBC: Bruno the bear shot dead in Alps. Apparently the bear was [...]

Colo(u)r schemes

Don’t panic … it’s just me fucking around with the colour schemes, trying to see if it’s possible to make it even worse than the last one …

All time number 1

What better way to follow up a U2 Top 10 than trying to nominate the best tune of all time!?! It’s quite a task to pick one single song out of about 50 gazillion (not accurate) and claim it is the best ever song. It’s something we could never reach a consensus on, we all [...]
