In a Nut Shell
DVD in Play: The Flaming Lips, VOID 1992-2005
Dreams I have been having: Attending cricket matches with friends from British Columbia. I know precious little about cricket, but all the matches are test matches and are always between Australia and Pakistan. In the dream, Elijah derides the game while Diana asks me what the rules are (no clue) and her friend Julianna tells everyone to shut up. Trent and Pete are sitting near by and snickering at me, while Gavin talks about how he could have a career as a cricketer if he really wanted it.
Musical Obsessions: The Flaming Lips, The Flaming Lips, The Flaming Lips. Xylophones and glockenspiels. Tortoise. Caribou. Beck's new album, Modern Guilt. The Flaming Lips. Neurosis. Acid Mothers Temple. Moog emulators. The Flaming Lips.
Culinary delights: Broiled tomatoes. Take bacon and heat it up in a roaster, add olive oil. When hot, add in herbs. I use fresh basil, tarragon, thyme, oregano and marjoram. Add and vroil the vine tomatoes for 6-7 minutes. Remove from the oven and remove the skins off the tomatoes. Pack Italian sausages (hot or mild, your choice) out of the tubes around the tomatoes, drizzle some olive oil over top and continue to broil until sausages are cooked and then broil it all some more. Serve with bread and the vegetable(s) of your choice. Courtesy of Jamie Oliver.

Am I a batsman or a bowler in these games?
Bat Man. Err... batsman.
Just saw "The Dark Knight."
!!!!!!!!
Why so...S-E-R-I-O-U-S!!!!
Mwhahahahahahaha!
I never really got the whole hype behind Heath Ledger before this film. He was always alright, but he never really made sit up and take notice. However, his performance as the Joker is what I always wanted to see in a Batman film.
Yeah, all the acting in Batman is amazing. But you're right, in films like Brokeback Mountain, etc., Ledger was just talented, that's all. But in Batman, he joins Gary Oldman among the gods of acting.
No joke: there is a star cricket batsman with the name of Gavin Campbell in the UK.
I don't think he fights crime, though.
You played cricket in your youth, did you not?
Must have been a subconscious thing, because now that you mention it I do recall you telling me.
Yes I did. It's harder to catch a cricket ball than a baseball because you don't use a glove.
