Less War, More.......?

 I can't go over to No War for Blogs permanently, every so often I just have to scream into the blogosphere at the stupidity of it all, but I promise to try and cut down on the GW2 blather. Perhaps if I can take a step back I can figure what I can, and must, do to help prevent this sort of thing happening again. First, and most obvious, I have to register to vote. There are local elections coming up soon, if any of them are in this area I should take the chance to vote for someone who opposes the war.

PopCap (in yo' ass)

 Broadband has brought a new addiction to chez Spinneyhead- Games from PopCap. We just can't get enough of these opportunities to prove just how poor our spatial awareness is.

Don't Tell The President

 Okay, No War Blog weekend has officially ended, and this is such a biggie that I thought it was important to share. The President of the USA, the most powerful single man on the planet, he who has his finger on the big red button- wasn't really told all the information and analysis needed to decide whether to invade Iraq. He doesn't make decisions based upon millions strong 'focus groups', but then again, he doesn't make them based upon the facts either. God help us, we're all doomed.
via WTF is it now?

Anti Ian and Uber Ian

 I've been receiving relationship advice from other members of Spinneyhead.
Brian's was most succinct, quoting Yoda in a comment he simply states- "Do, or do not. There is no try."
Daz weighed in with "You'll never know if you never try." and "Why don't you just call up [insert name of current crush here] and ask her out?" He'd make a good mother. (He's known me for long enough to realise the futility of using that argument on me, but still he tries. He'd make a very good mother.)
John's advice is the most intriguing. He thinks I should start channeling anti-Ian, who won't be so shy or crap. Anti-Ian would be unreliable, lie and probably cheat. But he would get laid.
The problem is, the best time to channel this alternative persona is whilst drunk. When I'm drunk I turn into Uber-Ian, who is a sort of hyperactive version of everyday Ian. If you want to have a conversation about whether sheep or goats would make better skiers (goats, because sheep are too dumb to be able to handle fakie moves), U-I's your man, but if you want me to chat you up, you're right out of luck.
Alternatively, he has offered the loan of his nephew, because babies are total chick magnets.
Emily has told me some of her friends used to fancy me. But that was several years ago, if she'd wanted to be useful she should have told me then.

Blogshares

 I'm not very good at these fantasy football/ stock market/ celebdaq things, but I registered with Blogshares because they list me and I want to claw my way up to the top and do that whole Wall Street 'Greed is good' speech.
