The Smiths - Cemetry Gates
I’ve become borderline-obsessed with this song recently and I don’t know why. I’ve always liked it but for some reason, the line
A dreaded sunny day
So let’s go where we’re wanted
And I meet you at the cemetery gates
towards the end has really gotten to me. It’s not so much the lyric, but the flow of it. I love it, and I’ve been singing it in my head for the last couple of days.
I don’t know if it has anything to do with it, but I was in a bad mood at the start of this week. I didn’t know why, but I was, and I couldn’t shake it. I heard this song for the first time in ages on Wednesday night, and it’s been in my head since then. Thursday and Friday, I’ve been in a really good mood.
Texas may let hunters shoot pigs from choppers
Outdoorsmen from abroad may hog all the permits, sow discontent among locals.The locals’ expected rally against the bill was stymied by the poor quality of their planning.
Critics argue that the move is just a pork project, particularly the provision that allows hunters to barrow helicopters.
Supporters believe that the conditons of the bill, as they stand, are “Orwell and good”.

Swedish car maker bankrupt
“We’re in desperate need of a government bailout loan!,” the CEO was heard to Saab.Government retorts: The world doesn’t reVolvo around you!
Rumour has it that the government has denied the loan proposal, reorganization of the company is pretty much a Fiat accompli at this point.
Why should IKEA what goes on in Sweden?

Facebook Friends Mapping
(Idea from emmbean : joelaz : iamdanw and made possible by nexus)
This is a brilliant idea. For me, the top-left cluster is people I work with or have worked with and the bottom-left cluster is people I went to school with. The fuzzy cluster to the left of them are the people I hang out with.
The isolated cluster in the top right are people from a small internet community I used to be part of and way over on the right are university friends.
My favourite part is the single thread running along the middle of the map which is one of those strange coincidences, where someone I used to work with went to university with the younger brother of someone I went to university with. Different cities, three years apart, and my old work-colleague and I only met for the first time a few years after we’d both graduated. Small world.
