Happy Palindrome Day!

Hitch — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 19:45:11 +0000

Not Really A Palindrome really is it? More of a freaky looking cat.

I had no idea, but apparently today is 01 – 11 – 10 in the US. Always brings a smile to myface. Speaking of Pallindromes, here’s a poem from the fantastic Demetri Martin that is a Pallindrome. Very talented young man he is too (have you not seen his TV show – Important things? – do it now please).

“Dammit I’m mad.
Evil is a deed as I live.
God, am I reviled? I rise, my bed on a sun, I melt.
To be not one man emanating is sad. I piss.
Alas, it is so late. Who stops to help?…
A loss it is alas (sip). I’d assign it a name.
Name not one bottle minus an ode by me:
“Sir, I deliver. I’m a dog”
Evil is a deed as I live.
Dammit I’m mad”

Merry Christmas and a return to Blogging

First of all merry christmas to all!

Apologies for not posting in a while (last post was in the build up to the festival, though I think you find my suggestions were some of the creme…, including the winners of the Edinburgh Comedy Awards, one show which has since transferred to the west end, and a few other crackers..), but things have been getting very busy!

The website will be changing a little in the next few weeks, mostly to give me practice with my coding skillz, but also it will become a new space where I can publish poems and other writings, provide news of upcoming gigs and so on.

Anyway, that isn’t really important and will all be very clear as and when it happens.

But for now, enjoy the rest of the bank holiday and I will hopefully see you in the New Year!

For those of you interested, the offending item of clothing Doug wore this week was this –

only it was in yellow (and thus im sure more fashionable). Doug, I thought I knew you…

If you see him in this, just take a photography, laugh if you must, but whatever you do, do not approach him, he must be considered armed and dangerous at all times. message ends
