Pot Pourri

An all day Chorus rehearsal today that went very well. We were doing staging, so it was a lot of standing up but it was great fun. I am loving this show more and more the further we get into it! ‘Our Time’ always seems to have the audience threatening tears (in a good way!) and I just love singing every song.

This evening I had a call from Emma in Folkestone and in the course of the conversation we realised that we hadn’t seen each other in two years or more. As a result, we’re going down to Folkestone for a day next weekend to catch up with a few old friends and so I can show Brett the place. (I hope the weather will be decent…)

This evening we’ve mostly been online. I’ve been chatting to my newly discovered gay work colleague on Out and Brett has been catching up with his blog reading.

Apart from that, nothing much to report really, so here are a few links to keep you amused…

It still needs more corroboratory research, but it looks like wanking is good for you! (Or at least it was when you were in your twenties.) Check out the article in the New Scientist which reveals all.

Slightly more irreverent is this spoof of The Jam hit ‘Going Underground’ aimed squarely at striking Tube drivers by a frustrated commuter. [Be warned it may take a little while to load and contains strong language.]

Finally, some topical humour as the Chicago Tribune asks its readers to suggest some unlikely or humorous product placements in the new Star Wars movie. The link takes you to a blog entry that excerpts some of the best and provides a further link to the article itself.
