I've been off-line for ages again, so I just took a look at my Nationstate. Apparently my economy has imploded. I guess that means I've successfully killed off business. Go me!

While I've been away Dan and Paul have been abusing me again. I don't want to get personal, but come on Paul, show us your efforts. Also, Richard has put a link to my blog in his side bar. I should probably do something similar, but I don't have enough friends with blogs. Paul, get yourself a web site. I guess he does have half a point though. I'd sort of like to have a go at playing with the CSS Zen Garden but I should probably sort out this site first. Some people pad out their side bar with links to the A-list, but I don't really want to look like some kind of wannabe. Actually, what I wanna do is say insightful things about prayer movements in Bradford; but I'm not doing terribly well there, am I?

At my graduation ceremony on Friday Brian Blessed was made an Honorary Doctor of Letters. I'm not entirely sure what that means, but he seemed genuinely excited by it, even saying it was the best thing that ever happened to him. Better still, he said Gordon's Alive! and did that lip-shaking noise thing from The Phantom Menace.

I finally gave in to temptation and bought Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. As a result I've not read much for the Baku-Ceyhan campaign, but I'm really going to now as I finished it this morning. It was all very good apart from the huge continuity error I'm sure I noticed fairly close to the end. I'll have to go back later and check that I didn't just miss something, which I guess is quite likely. Sometime maybe I'll write about why I don't think Harry Potter is Satanic, but I can't really be bothered now.
