For some reason that formed a mental image for me of tv as meat grinder.  Kind of like Pink Floyd's the Wall when the kids stepped in...

Meat grinder? MY mental image featured a direct result of eating ground meat...

The woman is a moron, no wonder she is championed by Palin, the Queen of Morons! All Hail!

I wrote an Uncyclopedia article one time.

From my experience in the banking industry, your article needs more spelling/grammar errors and more OTT formal language. Seeing some of the letters they send is a hoot. But then you realise the ones you're reading are the successful ones because they actually worked and some gullible soul lost a lot of money and it's rather depressing. 

On a lighter note...

The best is at the end:

"You want my bank account details? How's about this: f*ck off!"

"....is that your sort code Sir?"

Does anyone else misread this as The Enlightened Pudding?

[DavidW]

Which pudding is more enlightened tapioca or chocolate?  I'm sure a brit is going to jump in with blood pudding!

Hey, blood pudding is a European thing not just British 

And yeah blood pudding (actually 'black pudding' to us) is good, but any good Brit will agree that Yorkshire Pudding is king of pudding. Long live the Yorkie Pud.

Oh sorry didn't realize that other countries enjoyed eating congealed pigs blood!

I like rice pudding myself, but then again I haven't had Yorkshire pudding.

It's not just blood...there is, erm, chopped fat and cereal of some sort...oats maybe. The way I see it, if you're prepared to eat your cereal with cow's milk on it, why wouldn't you eat cereal soaked in pigs blood. And I don't like the word "congealed"... I prefer set.    But if you don't like the idea of blood, there is also white pudding, which is the oats and pork fat, sometimes fruit, with none of the blood.

Rice pudding is amazing yep. But Yorkshire is still king. Yorkshire pudding with a couple of quality sausages inside and some mashed potato and gravy. I had just that for my dinner last wednesday in fact.

Fabulous! You in the mood for a baaaad viola sonata? ; )

[Brahmsian]

viola sonata? ; )

I tried downloading it yesterday but it didn't work.  Perhaps because I'm on Firefox/Ubuntu? 

[karlhenning]

Try again, Ray?  If it fail again, let me know, and I'll dispatch you a disc.

[DavidW]

Heck yeah!  Your funky face is on the cover flow.

Edit: that is ipod speak for your viola sonata is on my ipod where I used the portrait on your blog for the album art.

[karlhenning]

Too much fun!

Remember Freakies cereal? It didn't last too long but I had all the figures.

I miss them.
