01. Anyone who looks at this entry has to post this meme and their current wallpaper at their livejournal.
02. Explain in five sentences why you're using that wallpaper.
03. Don't change your wallpaper before doing this. The point is to see what you had on.

How can I explain in five sentences? OK then, Knight Rider is, and always will be cool. I found the DVD set in the cupboard and changed the desktop to match my current viewing. My desktops change with alarming frequency, and at this point, Knight Rider is there. And its a pity I didn't do this yesterday, because I had a cool looking "The Crow" wallpaper on there.

What is the only album on which a murderer and his victim both played?

This one:

De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas - Mayhem

One of the defining "Black Metal" albums, and probably one of the most infamous. De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas had Varg (Count Grishnackt) Vikernes playing bass, and Øystein "Euronymous" Aarseth on lead guitar.

For those who don't know, Vikernes stabbed Aarseth to death in 1993.

Lest We Forget

Underrated thespian

2009-04-13T03:24:36Z

The most underestimated actor (actor, as opposed to Hollywood Big name) of my generation would have to be Sylvester Stallone. And it can be proved with three movies.

Rocky (or Ronky on Imdb forums)

~~Ronky~~ Rocky II

First Blood

Of these, two were written by Stallone himself, (The Rocky movies, First Blood was based on a novel by David Morell ) and one was directed by Stallone. (Rocky II). All of them are high quality dramas.

Which is where Stallone may have made his mistake in terms of the genre he eventually chose. He should have stayed in more dramatic roles. Maybe he wouldn't have made as much money, but his quality of films would be much higher.

And after all that, I forgot Rocky Balboa.

Sylvester Stallone, dramatic actor. Thats how I see him.

Thanks to a mistyping on the Internet Movie Database's forums, (at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075148/board/thread/129764987), the character of Rocky Balboa is now known as

...............Ronky.

A real humdinger!

Studying knowledge management is slightly more tolerable when you listen to "Devil With A Blue Dress On" by Mitch Ryder.

Q:What do you get if you play New-Age music backwards?

A: New age music.

It's true. And who could get away with this type of sonic backmasking trickery?

Enya.

That sneaky little Irish musician released a track called "Eclipse" which was simply a track "Deireadh An Tuath" from her first album, played backwards.

No news yet if this means she worships Satan! :)

I like Pink Floyd's The Wall, I think it is a great album, a classic of rock and a pretty good film too. Roger Waters' masterpiece.

This is The Wall, for those who do not have it in your record collection...

The Wall is a great musical journey through a man's life, retreat from the world and eventual breaking point, with the final scene either his madness or his redemption. A great musical/dramatic work.

It is also a great bluegrass country album.

Yes, bluegrass. Luther Wright and The Wrongs have re-recorded The Wall in bluegrass country style. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebuild_the_Wall for more details)

It exactly what Pink Floyd needed to put in The Wall......

more banjos.

Yeeeee- Haaaaa!

Here's one of my guilty pleasures in relation to movies:

The Craft (1996)

Even with all the poor acting, weird and non logical plot, and complete misconceptions of what witchcraft is all about, (It has moments of accuaracy but it is as accurate to the practice of the craft as Denis wheatley novels are to Satanism), The Craft is an enjoyable movie and not too bad a soundtrack either.

It has to be a good film, I remember seeing it about four times in the cinema. (Not sure how many times were times Helen saw it though :) )

Oh. and it stars Skeet Ulrich!

Been browsing lists of horror films tonight and came across this one.

Deafula ( a 1975 horror film (presumably a Dracula movie) entirely in American sign Language)

A complete plot rundown is here : http://www.agonybooth.com/recaps/Deafula.aspx

And I'm resisting the urge to tell you that this film was followed by King Solomon's Mimes

One of the best films ever

2009-01-05T10:03:43Z

In fact, it's my Movie of The Week

On a side note, browsing wikipedia for Wes Craven's movies has let me know a proposed sequel and remake for The People Under The Stairs. This will make a remake of almost every one of Craven's better films.

I was just looking up the carbohydrate value for a McDonalds happy meal (because my New Years brain couldnt remember it) when I saw this on the side of the screen

You could burn off the 550 calories from this Cheeseburger Happy Meal in a variety of ways:

Cleaning - changing linen for 201 minutes

Kneeling in Prayer for 502 minutes

502 Minutes of Prayer for a happy meal? with the amount I used to eat I should be the Pope by now....

Chemistry joke!

Hope you all had a happy christmas, or a merry non-denominational break.

For those who do have time to spare, here's Dave's recommendation for some good quality entertainment.

1- Shave a pomeranian. Believe me, you will be laughing for days, especially if he has a prissy little style of walking.

2 - Listen to this album:

Lead Me On, voted the best Christian album ever, and in my opinion one of the best albums ever. The video clip is here

3 - Watch this movie.

Biggles

WWI - action- adventure- time travel classic from the 80s. (and the final screen appearance of Peter Cushing). Watch this trailer and tell me you don't want to watch this...
