Here are some interesting facts about Monday:
Monday originally got it’s name from the Moon.
Heart attacks happen 20% more often on a Monday than on any other day of the week.
Monday is the most common day for teenage suicide attempts in Oregon, USA.
Basically, Monday is pretty depressing. Except for the fact that www.thedailywiggle.com writes an astonishingly [...]

We live in a time where we are exposed to hundreds, if not thousands, of marketing and political messages every day. Even if you’re Mr. or Mrs. Under-a-rock, I’m sure you’ll agree [...]

Hook, Line & Sinner, huh? No, no, no, not on my watch.
This episode is now renamed ‘Bent Not Broken.’ I’ve decided this because of the lovely Arizona’s speech towards the end of this episode. She delivered the line “I’m not broken” so perfectly that I immediately thought to find a song with ‘broken’ in the [...]

Please excuse my absence from last week. I’m not going to attempt to make some lame excuse as to why I didn’t write a Music Monday, I just simply couldn’t be bothered.
Anyway, I felt writing a review of the brand new Kate Nash album was enough to tide you over for another week.
On with today’s [...]

Upon beginning reading this book, I’ll have to admit I wasn’t crazy about it.
The book was recommended to me by my cousin, who is constantly reading books that are related to gay men and their lifestyles. I’ll say right off the bat that this isn’t really something that interests me, but my cousin said that [...]

I never understood the ‘If you were stuck on a desert island…’ questions. I mean, who is ever going to get stuck on a desert island?
Even more baffling: if you did get stuck on a desert island, why would you know in advance that you were going to be stuck and there and have time [...]

Remember when we reviewed Ellie Goulding’s ‘Lights’ on the day it was released? Well now, I’m going to review Kate Nash’s new album ‘My Best Friend Is You’ the day after it came out.
Don’t say we don’t spoil you.
If you’re thinking ‘but it’s not Monday!’ don’t worry. I know this. But music reviews aren’t exclusive [...]

Oh look, it’s Monday again! Don’t the weeks fly by?
What happened this week? Well, a volcano erupted in Iceland, meaning that shit loads of European flights got cancelled. My favourite thing that happened this week? Nick Clegg became the hero of the Liberal Democrats and made David Cameron look ugly, old-fashioned and an all round [...]

I’m sure you’ll agree when I say that there are very care products out there that don’t have a perfect little place in some person’s home. Where there’s a need, some company has gone and filled (for the most part, anyway) it.
The operant word in that previous sentence being need.
Because somehow, at some point that [...]

Although there’s not been much feedback about the new format, I’d like to share with you why I personally prefer it.
Mostly, I enjoy the excitement of not knowing what is coming up next. The fact that I simply put my iTunes on shuffle in order to come up with songs to review keeps everything spontaneous, [...]

Sympathy for the Parents? Actually, it’s quite a good name. And apparently it’s a Marilyn Manson song. Lovely.
For the purposes of this ‘re-naming the episodes’ gig, I’m going to go a little softer on the rock ‘n’ roll vibe and stick with Guns ‘n’ Roses’ ‘Sweet Child O’ Mine’.
Why? Because this week’s episode was all [...]

Wahoo! Week 2 of the new layout.
Seems no one commented saying they hated it last week, but that might just be because no one actually read the article.
So for now, we’ll stick with it.
Song #1: Just Like Heaven – The Cure: As you can probably see, my iTunes is filled with a lot of vintage. [...]
