Brutal.
I shouldn’t laugh at this. It’s fucking stupid. But it’s also sort of brilliant.

Tomorrow, I’m going to Marrakech. By myself. I’m going to get up at around seven, get to the train station for quarter past nine and then I’m off - I’m travelling 1531.07 miles across the world to a sprawling city of sights, sounds and smells I’ll have never seen, heard or breathed in before. The very thought itself is exhilarating, but there’s still the concern that just about anything could go wrong.
I really, just can’t put into words my state of mind at the moment.
As if that wasn’t bad enough, I’ve got a telephone job interview in three hours. I’m more worried about that, if I’m honest.
In fact, when Jacko died, I was at home playing Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars on a Nintendo DSi. I am 38 years old.

AWESOME.
This blew my socks off, just a little. Though the guy’s voice isn’t a patch on Jacko’s, obviously. Still, worth a watch.

I finally finished The Book of Dave (great read, check out my sort-of review below), so this is the one I’m onto now. Once you get past the fact that the text is disappointingly huge, meaning what would be a 300-page novel really deserves about half that number of pages, it’s actually a pretty decent story.
Being a bizarro novel, there’s a decidedly zany plot - a group of time-travelling people with all of Jesus’s capabilities - turning water into wine, walking on water (the travellers hail from Ocean City, in Atlantica, a city built on the sea) - voyaging to Galilee circa crucifixion day to see if Jesus was just a time traveller like them who duped people for a couple of thousand years. Naturally, when they get there, they don’t find anything you might expect. It’s pretty good - I’m about half-way through already.
