Fish And Chips Rap

When I was a younger man the name Charles Bronson meant....

The Original Charles Bronson .... The One And Only.
The Original Charles Bronson .... The One And Only.

.... only one thing, a mean and ugly lone vigilante walking the mean and violent streets of Manhattan and New York in the 1970's.

Generation Z For Stupid

In a confirmation of everything that I have said about talentless celebrity in the UK ...

Being Talentless Doesn't Stop People Trying .....

Bucket Lists

Recently I was asked if I had any bucket list requests .... I said no.

Typical Bucket List
Typical Bucket List .....

My reasoning is that it always seems to me that many of these are really all about creating memories for the benefit of the families left behind (which I don't have), rather than for the person who is expected to pass on. Of course, there are also life bucket lists, and I guess if pressed I would say that I would have liked to have moved to the US for a while, or been into outer space, and circled the moon like those two space tourists plan.

.... but some sort of record was set recently in Ankang, in north China's Shaanxi Province, when two middle-aged women hospitalised themselves after a lengthy row.

Weird Records

In an age where idiots such as myself, can very easily make a grab for my 15 minutes of fame via the Internet -

YouTube springs to mind as the quickest way to record a song, film an event, or even make your own film, and post it to a world audience - then the idea that any other method once existed is something of new one.

15 Minutes Of Extra Fame

Andy Warhol once famously said in 1968 that "In the future, everyone will be world famous for 15 minutes." ....

well it seems that the '15 minutes' he had in his lifetime wasn't long enough for him .... as his Andy Warhol museum in Pittsburgh, broadcast a live webcam feed from his grave there, to mark what would have been the artist's 85th birthday on Tuesday the 6th of August 2013 ...
