I wonder what they were talking about?

30 January 2009

Have you ever passed someone on the street and heard a fragment of a conversation and wondered what the whole thing was about?  I have to admit I often while away the time in my journey from A to B via D, R and X re-creating a suitable story to go with whatever snippet has caught my attention.

Take this morning for instance, I had to wend my merry way to Chelsea to have some blood samples taken to find out if it is indeed true that I’m really Princess Diana’s illegitimate son, as it happens I won’t find out next week as when I got there there was notice up saying, “Due to staff sickness there will be no one available to take blood samples today”  I’m not sure why I’m surprised, after all if you insist on shepherding in all the sick people to one small building you can’t be too surprised when they pass on whatever germaloids they have to the staff.

Tweet Tweet

24 January 2009

OK, so I finally caved in and visited a site that I keep hearing about, Twitter.  I have to say, although I have created a profile I’m not sure it will every really appeal to me.  From what I can gather its attraction is the fact that your messages are limited to 140 characters which seemingly is being touted as a way to reduce your on-line time.

Now, before anyone says that the reason I won’t like it is because I talk too much let me tell you that that is not the reason I’m unlikely to like Twitter, although it is directly related to the whole 140 characters limit thing.  As someone who gets sick and tired of people updating their Face Book status every 20 minutes or so I can’t imagine anything worse that getting constant updates when someone has Twittered which they will no doubt do in a bastardised form of English and text speak.

So, if you are one who twitters you will find me at twitter.com/mr_omneo for the time being.  Thanks to it’s shitty search facility I can’t find anyone else I know on there so feel free to comment here if you want me to follow you around like a lost puppy, just be sure to feed me and give me a slap if I start licking my balls. ;)

Yackity Yack, Who Talks Back?

5 January 2009

I’m going to make an admission in this entry, something that some people know, some people suspect and more than a few have no idea about whatsoever… I talk to myself!

Actually, saying I talk to myself is not much of an admission, I’m sure the majority of you reading this will, if you’re honest, admit to having spent time chatting to yourself when there is no one else around.  Why then have I felt this worthy of a blog?  Well, what I’m not sure others do is talk to themselves in persona’s! You see it’s like this, when I talk to myself I am not really talking to myself, I’m talking to one of my many friends and they are varied in number. Read the rest of this entry »

eMusic – MP3 music for nothing, yes totally free!

1 January 2009

eMusic.comIf you’ve been keeping up-to-date with this blog you’ll have an idea what emusic is about.  If not then let me give you the long slow version, then perhaps you’ll pay more attention in future!

It was a dark and stormy night and I was browsing the net, as I tend to do when most people are sleeping, when I came across a website called eMusic.com.  Now, being the cautious net browser that I am, but also one hankering after a bargain, I bored myself looking through the terms and conditions of their offers.  They basically have two deals… sign up to a trial membership and get 25 Free MP3s or take a 1 month paid membership and get 50 MP3s.  Now, as one who finds the idea of paying for music a strange one, my immediate reaction was to click away and cleanse my eyes with either some free porn or free music however I liked the idea of 25 FREE MP3s so… Read the rest of this entry »
