Baby Rowan
Congratulations to old pal Rik Abel and Adrienne Copithorne on the birth of their new baby Rowan Alexander on March 19th, which coincidentally also happens to be Rik’s birthday. Hurrah!
Deep Kyoto is back!
It’s spring and time to bring Deep Kyoto out of hibernation with a new article on Cafe Proverbs [15:17], the new vegan [...]

There’s something posh up on Deep Kyoto today.
Meanwhile Rik Abel’s is amazing me with his industry. His latest podcast featuring the mixing talents of Mr. Louis Atkins is up now on rikabel.com. Check it out.
An old colleague of mine, called Eddie, who was a funny old cove, and who I rather liked, passed away yesterday [...]

Welcome to the new blog. Why a new blog? Well, for one thing the URL is a lot simpler. But mainly because whereas BLOGGER owned the last site – this one is all mine and cannot be taken away from me. Why WordPress? Because my good friend Rik Abel told me to, and he [...]

Today was a pleasant and sleepy day. The sky was a deep and sleepy cloudless blue. My students were sleepy but friendly. I got one test (sleepily) written and out of the way, and only have one left to go. And my Peanuts DVD (“It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown!”) is arriving tomorrow morning; a [...]

Congratulations and jubilations to Rik Abel today who after years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years of talking about it, is ACTUALLY leaving Headshift today and going FREELANCE! No more corporate cronyism, or annoying bosses or insane deadlines. His life is in his own hands!
…Oh [...]

Here’s a happy thing. Thanks to this blog, and their own fine internet search-skills, a couple of old friends have actually got back in touch with me after years and years and years. However there are still a few few friends I have sadly and shamefully lost touch with over [...]

SCROTUM
I was reading Neil Gaiman’s journal today. You come across interesting things when you read Neil Gaiman’s journal. For instance, today he talked about how librarians up and down America were refusing to stock an award-winning children’s book that made mention of (HORROR OF HORRORS!) a dog’s scrotum. Quite rightly, Neil Gaiman was dismayed by [...]

I felt like going to see a movie yesterday… so I went and watched “Lucky Number Slevin”. I didn’t know much about it, but I thought it had a good cast. Well, Morgan Freeman and Bruce Willis pretty much did what they always do. Josh Hartnett was Josh Hartnetty. Lucy Liu was cute (she always [...]

Again, it’s late… and I have many things to say… but they must wait… Instead, to fill today’s blog, here is a short video of Rik (McGit) BLIND-ROLLER-SKATING. Enjoy.

I see that New Line cinema has decided to go ahead with the making of “The Hobbit” without director Peter Jackson at the helm. It seems they owe him money and don’t want to pay up, so they’re cheating Tolkien fans now too. I expect they’ll be approaching Keanu Reeves to play Bilbo Baggins next…
