Q: What’s the difference between Arthur Scargill and Michael Jackson?
A: Scargill hasn’t seen a miner’s helmet for twenty years.
Mates rates are a funny thing. Everyone is always looking for something to be done on the blag. If you can get it done cheaper, then you will. So when I was recommended a place to get tyres for my bike, I jumped at the chance of getting a discount “because I knew x”. And even when I spoke to the tyre shop they said that “cos you know x” I would get a further discount. He’d “sort me out”.
Bollocks. A little phoning around, and I found the exact same tyres (BT014s if you’re interested on my ‘99 CBR600) for a full £28 cheaper, fitted and balanced. Same deal. Lots cheaper.
My parents have been married 30 years today. That certainly says a thing or two. Congrats to them.
This is a realtively unheard of film with Jim Cavalziel (or however you spell it, he’s the fella who played Jesus in the Passion of Christ). Basically he’s on the hunt for some wheel chair bound madman who kills people by running them over in his car.
It’s quite dark, it’s a little bit freaky, but it’s not that great. It maintained my attention for the duration, but that was about it. Except for the car – a mint Barracuda – that Jimbo drives. It’s pretty hard. Worth a rent if you want some fairly mindless violence and explosions and so on.
Look at this page… (or if that doesn’t work it’s the DVD list for Tesco.com). What’s wrong with it?
Well if you can’t see, under the film title look at who is listed as starring in it. For example, Bad Boys: Joe Pantoliano. Bad Boys II: Gabrielle Union. Top Gun: Anthony Edwards. And so on. And whilst these are technically true as those people were in the film, they’re certainly not the first listed actors. Bad Boys (1 & 2) are clearly Will Smith and Martin Lawrence. Top Gun is obviously Tom Cruise. Big is Tom Hanks. Mona Lisa Smile, Julia Roberts. And so on.
