Cones
What's the attraction between drunk people and traffic cones? A sober man sees a road cone and thinks, "Oh dear, gonna be late." The drunk man thinks, "Now that would look so much better... over her!" It's like the drinking brings out the inner feng shui expert. It's more dangerous than you think. Every year 14 people are killed by vending machines falling on them. Accidents? I doubt it. They were trying to move them into the north-east corner to help their prosperous zone. They did it because they thought they'd come into money. Well, half a ton of coins just landed on them so it nearly worked.

Up t'North
I have been spend thing weekend in the north, where I am originally from. I knew what kind of a weekend I was in for when I left my house it was 9 Celsius, when I got up here it was 2. That's typical.
One quirk about the people from my home town is that they say 'duck' a lot. They call each other 'duck'.
"Eh up, duck, how's it going?" That kind of thing.
I can't get used to being called duck by people I don't know. Someone shouted to get my attention earlier... and I took cover.

That Boots Annoys Me
There's a Boots advert on TV that really bothers me. We see two women meet in the street during their equally busy days, but look, they both have stinking colds. They go on to talk about all the things they're doing, going shopping, taking the kids swimming, throwing a dinner party, even though they have really bad cold.
Stop doing all that. You are infectious. You are spreading the germs that old people die from! Still proud now?
A dinner party while you have a cold. Are you mad? I bet she spits in the soup because she secretly wants others to get it too.
Stop teaching people to carry on with a bad cold. 39 people have died in the UK this winter from flu, their families have lost a loved one, but you think you're big and clever for going out and sneezing your way round.
If they're making an ad like that they should also make one where, after the women say they're still doing lots with a bad cold, they go and try on shoes even with athlete's foot.
Or still go on her cruise holiday even though she's got the norovirus.
Knobs!

Golden Ways
If you have ever wanted to buy gold bullion now could be the perfect time. United States Gold Bureau offer a service where you can buy gold as coins or ingots and then have them stored away safely.
That way you have a good investment that historically has done well in the long term and rides out the nasty bits of a recession, unlike many other types of investments.
Buying gold has been the good old was of storing your wealth for centuries. From the ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans to today, it has worked. It is the stability of gold during the times of instability of other economic factors that makes gold such an attractive investment. Have you noticed the adverts for cash-for-gold type services? Companies will buy your old gold from you, melt it down and sell it on the gold market.
It goes to show, old is in demand. So now could be a good time to buy.

Big
I was watching "Big" on Film4 today. It's kinda dodgy that the female lead character fancied male lead. Even if she didn't guess he was 13 she would've thought he was deranged. He slept on bunk-beds with his 13 year old friend.
And when she finds out at the end she'd run off a scrub herself with a wire brush - she got sexy with a kid! Dude, wrong!
It's a gender thing too. Imagine if Jamie Lee Curtis got some strange in Freaky Friday. People would've thought it was sick.
Still, it all reminds me of the time I made a wish on a fairground machine. It came true. You could make a film about me call "Big" but I didn't wish to get older. Nuff said.

Alcohol Treatment
Before Xmas is is common to talk about the fun we were about to have. We think about the party season and how we can go out and enjoy things to excess. Now we are in the New Year it is time to stop the hedonistic way of thinking. It is only fair that we use the New Year to give equal attention to sobriety.
If someone has a dependency to alcohol, sometimes it can me too much for one person to deal with on their own. You hear people say that the first step towards quitting is admitting you have a problem. The second step is just as important. You have to find a way of making that happen, and if you just go home and hope you're own will power will deal with everything you might not succeed.
One wise option is to find the right resources to help you or someone you are trying to help, find the right alcohol treatment centers. Information is what the second step is made of. Finding out about websites with alcohol addiction information just takes a little research.
If you are looking for Alcohol Treatment Centers for either you or someone you are helping to enroll in Alcohol Treatment Programs, have a look at the www.treatment4alcohol.com website.
There you will find details on Alcohol Treatment and information about where to find the programs. A New Year can be a new start and sometimes a new start is all that is needed.

Back to the TV
It's been great TV on this New Year. I sat down to watch Back to the Future again. Only one problem, a real scientist would say, "one point two one," not, "one point twenty one", and it's "gigawatt" not "jigawatt".
And Doc Brown asks Marty if there's a problem with the Earth's gravitational pull. A real scientist would know that gravity is just a property of mass.
But after watching Back to the Future my New Year's Resolution is to run out into the town and ask in a panicked way, "What year is this?"
