Little things I notice

Friday, January 27th, 2006

It smells like the bendy 25 london bus runs on vegetable oil, whenever I cycle near one I get a sour chippy smell. The bendy 25 bus is also quite scary to cycle near as it is so long and cumbersome.

Quite often I notice mystery pavement circles, I think they are created not by a UFO, but by the spinning brushes of pavement sweepers.

Lots of large commercial websites have silly mistakes or errors such as this one ocurring all over a website

Hospitality January 2006

Wednesday, January 25th, 2006

A free Drum and Bass night to celebrate the 100th release on Hospital Records. Some good tunes were played, and Tony Coleman still holds a little torch in his mouth when he’s mixing, now he’s got an LED torch. Maybe he should get a head torch or torch glasses (like this dj I found on google) and save on a possible big dental bill?

Kind to your hands, harsh on grease?

Monday, January 23rd, 2006

I was going to write about my new Netgear DG834PN that I got today, but that will have to come later.

I finished washing up a few minutes ago, and I thought:

Is it really possible for a dishwashing liquid to be kind to your hands, yet harsh on grease? I don’t think so. I am sure the natural oils in your skin are a major factor in keeping it soft and supple, so how can a washing up liquid dissolve animal fat (oil) from dishes, yet leave your own natural skin oils on your hands?

Speakmans

Tuesday, January 17th, 2006

There are plenty of other Speakmans out there, including Nik & Eva Speakman, the owners of Stubbley Hall in Lancashire. The Speakmans have made their millions and now they want to help others, they have a programme on UK TV. They use their ‘Less Ordinary’ life coaching people on screen to achieve their goals. They have even coined the term Speakmanisms, which are one-liner motivational messages.

Other Speakmans include:

  • Prof John Speakman of the School of Biological Sciences, University of Aberdeen
  • Chris Speakman, the fine artist from Massachusetts, USA
  • Matt Speakman, the Rally Driver, Ocean Racer, Motorcycle Racer, Scuba Diver, Kayaker and World Cup Ski Racer
  • Dr Dorian Speakman, a PHD researcher at Manchester School of Management
  • Jeff Speakman, an American actor and an accomplishmed kenpo martial artist
  • And of course, don’t forget the Speakman plumbing company, famous in the USA for its shower heads.

    Dubuisson Scaldis

    Dubuisson Scaldis / Bush Amber
    Wooah, this is one strong beer! Also known as busch amber, it’s got a hefty 12% kick, I got it take away from Quinns in Camden. The taste is a bit too strong for me, I might try something a bit weaker next time like the 10.5% Bush Blond.

    What’s that tune?

    Thursday, January 5th, 2006

    I’m talking about the title tune to Car Cruzin’ on Men and Motors. It’s got some heavy drumz and a filthy filtered bassline. I also think I heard it on CSI: New York in an episode called “The Closer”, episode 122. Listen and tell me what it is.

    I’ve also uploaded some more digiblue bizniss:
