Remember kids: It's OK t'eat fish, cos they don't have any feelings!
Oh that Kurt Cobain. Lovely chap before he blew his mind out in a garage. But read his book, he comes across as a total bread and butter. And he left behind a wife and a 2 year old daughter. Must've been pretty desperate if y'arsk me. How do we know if fish have any feelings? Do scientists just jab needles at them and assess their reaction? I'd like to be a fish. T'would be nice. Actually no it wouldn't. I'd rather be a polar bear. Rawr.
Christmas is nearly here. Due to my "geeky" nature and to put it nicely "old school" music taste, i have already uploaded 41 pengaleng xmas songs onto the ol' ipod. I know what you're thinking 'Oh em gees Matt, it's only November! Why are you listening to xmas choonage already, you plumb?' You may also be thinking 'Eurgh, Xmas music! it's crap!' But i shall have you know that t'ain't all that bad. How can one possibly say that 'All I Want For Christmas Is You' is crap? (even if it is sung by Mariah Carey *shudders*) It's quite nang. All the sleigh bells, and merriment, and eternal longing for someone she knows she can't have. Oh christmas...
What about Fairytale of New York? Everyone likes that song, with its 'taboo language' and drunkeness, even if it is kind of parodoxical of what Christmas is all about. BE HAPPY! That means you Kavi! And erm... flame..... its Xmas, the most wonderful time of the year, the hap-happiest season of all! WOOP! I think i'll go and find some tinsel now. BYEEEEEEE.

ghosts and shiz.
i think there is such a thing as an alien. dont you think is semi-irrational to claim that theres no extra-terrestrials at all? i mean, out of the MILLIONS of other planets/moons there must be other life somewhere. id like to meet an alien. until he did experiments on me. i also reckon that theres a parallel universe out there somewhere, i.e. an earth exactly the same as ours, with exactly the same people, and the same events, at exactly the same time. that would be cool.
i'm into this whole paranormal concept at the moment too. i used to be pretty skeptical about it all but now i totally believe in ghosts and all that malarkey. i was at my aunts house in hertfordshire the other week (somehow that makes it seem really posh :s) and my aunt was telling me about this weird incident that had happened a few months back. basically, this house used to be a farmhouse and is built on what used to be apple fields. and in their back room is a big, original period fireplace, which is now disused. anyway, one day my cousin max (who was 3 at the time) just stood and stared at this fireplace for like a minute. when my aunt asked him what he was looking at he said 'that man in the fire' really casually. now obviously there was no actual man in the fireplace, so my aunt asked him where the man was and max explained to her that there was a farmer with a hat and bag of apples in the fireplace looking out at them. by this stage my aunt was pretty freaked out so she asked him why the man was in the fireplace, to which he replied 'he threw himself in the fire because he was really really sad'. a couple of hours later his twin sister kate (who was not in the room the first time) managed to back up the description of the man perfectly, and pointed to the exact same spot, claiming she'd seen him before. now neither of them knew that the area used to be apple field, nor did they know that it was an old farmhouse. they wouldn't understand the concept of death, let alone suicide, and probably didnt know what a fireplace did. strange isnt it? i myself have seen the family cat sitting and staring at that same fireplace for ages.
another family member of mine (who is a hardcore hindu and hence knows all about this spiritualness) explained it all by saying that when people die unhappily, with unfinished business, or a certain attachment, the leave behind part of themselves as a sort of 'electric energy' or ghost to you and me, which can only be picked up by those most sensitive, i.e. young chidren, and that this is a skill which we lose as we get older or more aware. dogs barking/ staring at nothing are common things related to ghosts too. so yeah i believe in all this, i doubt many else will...
