Why are we expected to listen to the opinions on pop music of the people who, far from doing any good work in the British pop industry have almost actually destroyed it, done thier best to drag it back from the heights of the Beatles, Stones, Bowie, Punk, New Romantics, Rave, even Britpop etc, which sold all over the globe and made British youth culture world famous , back to the dreadful days of the 1950s tawdry manufactured show biz tat which no one abroad gives a toss about, of course, why should they, when they have thier own manufactured banal pap to contend with.
Sorry about the longest sentence in the world, a natural side effect of the act of ranting.

Its Not Really Happening Is It?
Dont know if anyone else has noticed this, maybe it just applies to me and my mates, but with any kind of project, the amount of time spent talking about it in the pub is directly inversely proportional to the chances of it actually ever happening.
The more someone sits there talking about thier plans, the less chance there is of anything actually happening. And I dont mean they shouldnt actually be in the pub they should be spending that time doing it, although that is a factor i suppose, thats not the point. The fact is if you are banging on about it to anyone who will listen, the next day it will be almost impossible to actually get down to it. You feel like youve already done it, the excitement has gone, youve shot your bolt. Youve burned the energy away on it and the moment has passed, its already out there, in the ether, its gone.
No, just shut up about it apart from a carefuly chosen semi cryptic remark or two perhaps, just to sound it out and gauge the possible reception that whatever it is can expect, just keep the cork on the bottle till you sit down and start work on it with a full head of steam. Perhaps too many similes there but you get the idea.
I mean if id gone on about doing this blog in the pub it definately would never have happened, and where would all you thousands of readers be then.

The Black and White Minstrel Show
Why dont these white rasta blokes with dreadlocks just go the whole hog and black thier faces up with boot polish?
Trojan Horse
Another tip best utilised when moving into a new home - how to get Sky Sports past her spendthrift (when it suits her) 'we cant afford that its too expensive / i bought these new shoes they were only £85 in the sale i saved £25%' mind games. First of all you must create the impression that the area is a freeview bad reception zone, which lets face it is half the country. Try putting your mobile phone next to the freeview box when turning it on if you actually dont happen to be in a Freeview free zone, that should run a nice static through it. Then the argument that Sky's £70 one off payment for installation is cheaper and easier than putting up a new 600 ft aerial is robustly convincing. Then, stage three, once youve got the trojan horse through the door there are basically 400,000 channels and she wont know whats going on, what youre paying for and what your not, if you make sure the bills in your name of course (unless you're one of these strange creepy 'we open each others letters' couples that is- ugh) so its time to turn on the big tap labelled FOOTIE. Then Bobs your Uncle (Bobin that is, David Bobin, Sky Sports Presentation Legend), its on, your watching it, all argument is futile.

Achilles Heel
Sandals on men are obscene. Mens feet are not designed to be looked at in polite company, they are hideous. No one wants to see them, they will frighten children and put people off thier food. I mean you may as well walk round with your bollocks hanging out. Unless you happen to a gladiator at the height of the roman empire - dont do it.
