Indeed I am!! thank you for the welcome comment type thing.
Sugar Puff Pish Update:
I can make it happen in under an hour by consuming lots of water, then having two bowls of sugar puffs.
Interestingly, it doesn't work the other way.
I'm still no clearer on the reasons for this phenomenon.
I have secured an old microwave for the suggested 'CDs In The Microwave' experiment. I'll video it when I get the appliance.

I'm a few weeks into my crusade against bad science in the media. I've written a few letters and made a few phone calls but I think I'm fighting a losing battle so I'm switching to a more positive approach.
Instead of highlighting bad science, I shall highlight good science from now on.
The reasons for pee smelling of sugar puffs after you eat them...

well, i'm not a shit photographer, i've just always been fond of the "magic eye" puzzles and try to work that into my art as often as possible.
soapdodger:
Blair's photos look great Wish I could've been there. As for the rats - yeah hundreds. I'd guess around 200 in a space about 8m x 8m. 
Shazam. I left work, had a brief notion to head to the meadows but unknown forces drew me toward Marks and Spencer on Princes St where I found some very, very good breakdancers.

Sadly, my camera was on 'multi-burst' mode so the pictures turned out weird. Anyone who knows anything about cameras or that stuff should get in touch. Meanwhile, sorry for the crap...

^^^Ken, eh?
You may very well see me next Sat., although at the mo' I don't even have bus fare. My beard isn't particularly mighty just now; I'm actually just growing it again - I haven't had a beard for a few years (profile pic is old).

Cheers dude, I will say hello as soon as I get my shit together.
poprock:
The DJ gig's a wierd one. Did you ever hear of a dodgy old club on Glasgow's Oswald St called Strawberry Fields? It's never really had the best reputation... It was rebranded a while back as Ivory Black's, and pretty much nobody cared. For the past year or two they've just become a gig venue for local bands, not even opening past midnight.
Now they have new promoters, who want to start from scratch as a 'proper' nightclub. So I get the Saturday night DJ slot. Me and a colleague will be doing an under-18s night from 5-9, then a normal night from 10-3.
It' going to either take off like a rocket, or die on it's arse. I don't think there'll be any inbetween.

Ah ha, so you're the bank robber!

Cheers for adding me to the group.
The jap/euro guys mostly use super unleaded, as will anyone with a high performance engined car as that's what they're designed for. It has a higher octane rating than regular unleaded, which is required in higher compression engines that output more power to stop the fuel detonating instead of burning. Some of the real passionate guys fit Nitrous Oxide kits to their cars also, also called NOS (although this is actually a particular supplier of nitrous and nitrous systems), which pretty much originated in the drag racing circles as a way of making much more power. You need to be able to provide the engine with more fuel if you use much of it, or the whole lot will melt rather quickly!
To be honest, I think a lot of those guys just bullshit about their cars. But, I do know some guys with Nissan Skylines and the like who are pretty serious and have spent mega bucks on their cars. A guy from up here won a Jap shootout down in England last weekend with his Skyline, 9.5s over the quarter is pretty damn fast!
Me, I won't touch nitrous, mainly because it's so tricky to run. All the Pro Mod series drag cars here have moved to supercharged alcohol engines from gasoline/nitrous motors, because they're so much cheaper to buy and run, and they produce much more power without melting themselves every so often!
Why be jealous of me working on hotrods and dragsters...? If you're a real hard worker and know your engines, it's not hard to get into it. All it took for me was a phonecall to the right guy, and a weekend of hard graft on the dragster. 7 years on I'm still there!

Glasgow is better than Edinburgh. It just is. Except yesterday.
The city was visited by an infrequent visitor - a warm, bright sun.
I went out for a huuuuge walk and saw the place in a way that I haven't seen it for so long that I forgot it could be like that.
As a consequence of walking for such a long time, I went...

I will be driving around in a Citroen summit or other. I was sent to pick up a Transit. Brand spanking Turbo-Diesel jobbie. Mucho fun. Didn't buy any Yorkie bars tho. Altrhough I did visit plenty of Motorway service stations.
monkeyboye14:
the Dear Green Place does indeed piss all over Auld Reekie. Just got back from a weekend back in my hometown - all manner of drunken weirdness in dodgy pubs near Glasgow Cross. Glasgow rocks!
Illness sucks ass. I have no objection to calling in sick to work but it feels like a waste to not be able to do anything with the free holiday. Plans for cinema and furniture moving went out of the window when I got out of bed. I've been coffing and spluttering all day and I don't have the energy to walk upstairs.

Hey, thanks for the welcome Battles! Doha's about 7,000 miles from Glasgow, but that's not an issue as I'm living in St. Andrews at the moment. Don't know about a meet-up, am very busy with Uni work at the moment. Am going through there for a tattoo soon though....
Updates are quite hard.
I write a bunch of stuff and then delete it cause I think "Nobody wants to read this nonsense".
I'm going on holiday in a few hours. If anything exciting happens I'll let you know.
