050 More Caliber Per Capita
I don't proofread until the whole shebang is posted. So if this post just popped up, i'd refresh it a few more times before you scoff at any random missssspellings or obnoxious run-ons. I also seem to have a problem, with commas lately.
These Paypal and Ebay hackers are a clever bunch of thieves, aren't they? Just yesterday, I received an email alert from Paypal saying that someone had tried to log in to my account. I opened it and it said if i didn't click on this link to resolve the issue, they'd suspend my account. Well that's weird. I clicked on it. Up came a page that looked an awful lot like the Paypal mainpage. But before I did anything, I noticed the URL at the top. It wasn't any Paypal-affiliated address. So basically, If i were to enter in my username and password here, I would be giving all of my information to as you-know-who would say, the evildoers... Clever! The same thing happened with Ebay recently too. Your best bet is to quit out of email, go directly to the website and see if there is any mention of a problem. If there isn't... stay away!
Hey, go see what was number 1 yesterday and hear my little rant...
It's a real shame that everything has become a sexual innuendo nowadays. Go ahead. You try looking up "teabag" in Google Images.
On my last trip to England & Ireland, I made it a point to do touristy stuff. Not the usual, of course. For instance, in London, we made a pilgrimage to one of Shane MacGowan's old kicking grounds, Filthy McNasty's. And we also hit up a bar called The Waxie Dargle just because of the Pogues song of the same name. This time, it's a Shaun of the Dead tour! I'm really only interested in getting a few pictures outside of The Winchester (which is actually a bar called Duke of Albany) and the area around Shaun's flat, ie. the walk he does from his door to the convenience store... finding out where that is may take a little bit of research.
Wow, check this out: A list of UK rock pilgrimages! It includes the one i was orginally looking for: the picture of The Smiths in front of the Salford lads Club. Expect a photo of Mike Kinsella and I in front of that one.

the internet robbers are out in numbers!
he says where they filmed the stuff in the commentary for the DVD.
"Inspiration for the Winchester Arms came from a pub called the Shepherd's Arms in Highgate, where he and his Spaced/Shaun co-star Nick Frost basically spent every night for three years."
Interesting fact about one of the films characters... John the landlord was actually in 'Indiana Jones: Raiders of the lost ark' as a Nazi clinging to the side of the army truck that they stole.
Good luck finding the actual pub they used. Don't have a clue where that is.
Nice #1 for yesterday, very nice.
And yes, you just have to delete those paypal and ebay e-mails after receiving them, it's suprising how many come through.
Ah, here you go.....

Hahaha. No thanks, Bob, I'll pass.
The best paypal/ebay scams are the ones where they ask for your credit card number and pin. LOL
cbk, it just comes up with a woman in a teabag dress from what I saw, quite amusing.
Sorry to read about your break in the other night, some bloke tried breaking into our house today, fortunately I was in the house and managed to scare him away. Does really get the adrenaline going though.
Thanks for the sentiment, Andrew, and for visiting the site!
Hey Bob, look what I came across!

Today we celebrate you!
Hey Bob,
When you come to birmingham, there are a few places you should try and visit,
Nearly everyone goes to the Bullring shopping center and has they're photo with a giant Bull Statue, i don't no why cause it's pretty boring but tourists asways have photos done, straddling it.
Also there are a couple of brilliant music shops, the first is music zone and have tons of bargain dvds/videos/cds and then there is Tempest Records, which has a pretty vast cd selection, i got my copy of the ATDI (best of) yesterday from there.
Erm, what else, ok they'res a nice rag market, you can get tons of pretty cool clothes from there all resonable priced.
Anyway, Look forward to seeing you and mike kinsella later in the year.
