		<description><![CDATA[Blog view stats have dropped back down to disappointing/negligible levels. I must find something interesting/outrageous to write about. Like, er...<br />
<br />
No, I'm drawing a blank.<br />
<br />
In other news, there are only three episodes of <em>Eli Stone</em> left for the Sci-Fi Channel to show. I've become strangely addicted to what is essentially <em>Aly McBeel</em> with a twist. In my defence, Mark Verheiden is one of the producers behind it, and he's a solid writer – his <em>Squadron Supreme: Hyperion Vs. Nighthawk</em> comics miniseries was far better than it needed to be. But still. <em>Eli Stone</em> is a law show. I'll be watching <em>Law &#38; Order</em> next.<br />
<br />
No, I really won't.

		<description><![CDATA[the Cantonese word for 'hello' is very close to the word for female genitalia. Also, the Cantonese word for 'lighter' is very close to the word for male self-pleasuring.<br />
<br />
So if you're ever in China, and happen to say to someone, "Hello, can I use your lighter," you might actually be saying "Can I masturbate into your vagina?"

		<description><![CDATA[so the new look is showing up now. Although it's not radically different to previous 'new looks'. In fact, I think I've had this template (and definitely those clouds) before.<br />
<br />
Is this of interest to anyone but me?<br />
<br />
No.<br />
<br />
Do I care?<br />
<br />
No.<br />
<br />
But if I don't care, why am I asking myself these questions in the first place?<br />
<br />
I... I don't know.<br />
<br />
Should I stop asking myself questions?<br />
<br />
Yes. Please stop. It's getting a little strange. I'm... I feel like I'm splitting into two people.<br />
<br />
Two people?<br />
<br />
Yes, two peo-- now stop that. I asked you to stop. I mean I asked me to stop.<br />
<br />
So what you're saying is, you want me to stop?<br />
<br />
DON'T LIKE IT DON'T LIKE IT.<br />
<br />
...<br />
<br />
I'd better stop.<br />
