31st October 2008:
Ok, so between putting a fair bit of time into writing my AI program, using twitter and tidying the office, I haven't really had time to blog.  Plus I have been busily uninstalling Windows Vista, giving Xubuntu 8.10 the entire hard disk, and creating a virtual Windows XP machine.  Also, been watching The Sarah Connor Chronicles.  Didn't watch the first series out of choice, because I felt it would be passe.  However, I think Summer Glau is really hot, and her whimpering "it's a matter of life or death" on the trailer sold me.  This said, I really love the character of Cameron.  Especially as I have been working hard on my AI program.  Kind of spurs me on to do great things with the great basis I already wrote. 

Not a lot happening at work.  Although earlier did set off my personal alarm.  Which was fun.  Had this insane Scottish woman insisting we have a password (we don't) and asking me whether we require the police as a security question.  However, I gave her my name and she cancelled the alarm.  How insane is that? 

Then there is The Bombshell.  Both me and Miss C have noted that he is in a foul mood tonight.  Far removed from when I last worked with him and he was singing the cheeky girls at me.  He flounced up the aisle and sang "I am a cheeky boy, touch my bum, touch my bum".  We miss this whimsical Bombshell. 

Ok, so, as a journalist I guess I am supposed to have an opinion on this whole Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross scandal.  I even have business people sending me e-mails with the business persopective on it.  Mad.  Anyway.  Here is my slant.  Now, bear in mind that I am more informed than 99% of people reporting on this because I have actually heard these phone calls.  Now, to me Jonathan Ross should be fired.  He started the whole thing by screaming "You f*cked his grand daughter."  Russell Brand actually backed away from it and tried to run.  And yet he is the one without a job at the BBC, and Jonathan Ross loses an estimated million pounds.  Oh.  Boo hoo.  I'm sorry, but he gets essentially a million pound fine and the guy who's fault it ISN'T along with the controller of the station quits but he keeps his job.  Come on Jonathan Ross, be a man.  Quit.  You're funny, you're a hell of a movie critic, and I am a fan, but as a fan, I am saying to Jonathan Ross, quit.  Go be edgy on Channel 4.  Co-host a show with Russell on 4. 

And then there is Georgina The Grand Daughter.  This woman makes my blood boil.  Google her on Google Images.  What you get back isn't quite Snow White.  Hell, she is in a Burlesque troupe called Satan's Sluts!  And she has been doing page 3 last week too.  Hardly innocent.  And then yesterday she dared slate Brand's manhood and prowess.  Uh huh.  Well darling, it's obviously for the cash because many a woman has not complained, and also, if you're that experienced, why so outraged?

But then there is The Bombshell again.  Because after he yelled at us for not doing enough work because I missed 3 cases of stock from the back, and Miss C missed 3 cases (triggering a screaming match on the shop floor between the two of them), once the delivery came in, he went right back to being silly, dancing, and repeating words that Miss C and I were saying.  Possibly the best was when Miss C said that she had put out 16 packs of painkillers rather than 10 packs, and in a child's voice The Bombshell said "Yeah, is 10, not 16!"
