I was forwarded a link to a story in the Guardian about sex education in schools by Sully O’Sullivan of the Movement for a Worldwide Atheist Revolution.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/2009/apr/28/sex-education-faith-state-schools

The article, in summary, is about English schools that now, by law, have to teach sexual education, but faith schools are not restricted in discriminating against homosexuality, demonising sex out of wedlock or discouraging the use of contraception in sexual activity. On top of that, even though the law is in place, parents can choose to have their children excluded on religious grounds. So it got me thinking about where I stand on things?

You would think with my TV going BANG and the handle of my washing machine door now sitting on top of the fridge, that I might be a looking to vent frustration and slaughter one of my local parasitical drug addicts. Truth be told, I’m not, I have a big goofy smile permanently on my face and loving life.

One reason for this may be that I had a very relaxing trip to Dumfries to see my friend Kate, her boyfriend and her family. Getting the train there was like going back in time, having my phone and radio signal slowly disappear, watching the metropolitan buildings being replaced with fields and sheep. Their house was in the middle of some massive fields, it was like being in the priest house from Father Ted. Had a lovely time there and really appreciate the Sloan family hospitality.

Before I talk about my recent adventure, I have a question that’s been bugging me, do you think a doctor has ever laughed when diagnosing a fat person with athletes foot? Anyway…

As a young boy growing up in Coatbridge, for most of my life I’d thought the only forms of entertainment in Glasgow were watching football, stabbing supporters of any team that didn’t match yours and drugging girls so you could be part of the lottery in fathering their 4th child. So imagine my trouble when I’d decided to seek out new things to do? Armed with the internet and a google search engine I knew I could find interesting activities that wouldn’t involve raping a sports shop mannequin.

What an nice day I had yesterday, eventually getting out of my bed at the crack of noon, making myself a nice smoked bacon sandwich and reading the paper. That was the nice, lovely, smiley level that started and would continue throughout, excusing the one very rude blip in the evening buy an over articulated, extremely rude man that confused confidence with excessive arrogance, but I will talk about that pile of dried cow spunk in a bit.

Once the bacon started digesting and had been washed down with a cold, refreshing, buzz happy glass of original lucozade. My lovely wee sister, who has been trying to keep me out of mischief, took me to the land of false economy, IKEA. What the fuck is it with people that get behind the wonky wheels of a trolley, automatically losing the ability to see anyone else around them? The trolley acts as a penetrating vessel, rendering the handler excusable from any and all common decency or manners. The only chance you have of an apology is

I’ve had a valid reason for not posting anything for a while, it seems people have been using my blog as a chance to stalk me and use this information for evil purposes. The stalking I don’t mind (it’s quite rock and roll) but by the power of grayskull, I am the only one that gets to use me for evil!

Been gigging quite a bit, which is nice. Was up in Aberdeen at Snafu, using the transportation of super stardom, the Megabus. For those that have never been introduced to the people carrying firm, this is not the party bus that it sounds, no no no, it’s more like a wheeled can of genetically modified mutant pensioners and vagrants, that smell like rotting veg and a dead street rats. Three and a half hours of heaven.
