Comedy
Simon Munnery is your compère for BBC Radio Scotland’s coverage of the Glasgow Comedy Festival, available on iplayer here until Saturday 28 March.
Also my favourite comedian, Stewart Lee, of Fist of Fun and This Morning With Richard Not Judy fame (and he directed and co-wrote Simon Munnery’s Attention Scum and Richard Thomas’ Jerry Springer The Opera) has a new stand-up show, Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle, on Monday nights on BBC2, or on iplayer. Occasionally featuring Simon Munnery too, and “the actor” Kevin Eldon, Paul Putner, Tony Law and Peter Serafinowicz. Executive-produced by Armando Iannucci and script-edited by Chris Morris. Find all his previous stand-up on YouTube.
What comedy have other people been enjoying? (cartoons don’t count, otherwise we’d be here all year listing them)
(However the 13th series of South Park is now airing and has been awesome so far; get torrents from mrtwig.net.

So, I shall share the song I am listening to as I write this post:
The Pixies - Where is my Mind (play the video for none sucky version)
I now command you all (yes, you…) to share the track you are listening to as you read this post. (preferrably with last.fm links).
Do it… now!. Why, because Mentok wills it so!
If for some (rediculous, I imagine) reason you are not listening to music right now you may pick your most recently listened to track. But may a horrible curse be upon all those who break the initial commandment of “the track you are listening to as you read this post“. Oh yes, if you break the aforementioned commandment you will be struck down like the heathen you know inside that you truly are.
Computer games
Been quiet too long.
Thought I would remind you all about games that are coming out, as there are quite a few (im considering PS3 and pc only:
Dead Space,
MotorStorm pacific rift,
Little big planet,
Far Cry 2,
Fallout 3,
Resistance 2,
COD5.
Stalker Clear Sky (already out!)
As for XBox360, something titled “Gears of war 2″, whatever that is.
Lets hope they dont all suck as much as Spore did.
binocular football
Funniest thing I have seen all day. I wonder how many got a nice close up view of the sun.
A very long fag break
I may have sent this link to a couple of you before but you should all observe this poor bastard’s ordeal.
The longest smoke break of Nicholas White’s life began at around eleven o’clock on a Friday night in October, 1999. White, a thirty-four-year-old production manager at Business Week wanted a cigarette. He told a colleague he’d be right back and, leaving behind his jacket, headed downstairs…”
Shameless self promotion

Lego Computer
Some guy has built a computer using lego - pure genius.
Best bit? The little blue doors you can open to cool the PSU…
