It's Only Fair
Wasn't sure that I was ever going to show this picture on the internets, but I guess as I published the one of the Princess, it is only fair. This was of course taken at the aforementioned Elvis Party, which happened to be at Sam and Abi's house. When I came in Sam ran away and when I followed he hid his face from me, "It's so embarrassing", he said, "What's embarrassing Sam", I asked, "You've got chest hair, it's just so embarrassing!". Seems to be my mission in life to traumatise this poor child.Talking of children, Twoson and I inadvertantly booked consecutive doctor's appointments yesterday. When I complained that the waiting room smelt like old ladies wet knickers he suggested that the solution might be for me to leave! I never cease to wonder at the high esteem the Offspring hold me in. It did occur to him to ask afterwards if he was still on for a lift home, cheeky beggar.
J has taken up the challenge and listed his own top ten albums on his blog. He also added his list of geniuses (?) who didn't make his top ten album chart and so here are mine:
Miles Davis, Ian Dury, Kate Bush, Van Morrison, Sting, Eva Cassidy, Eg and Alice, Steely Dan, Richard Thompson, Elvis Costello, Eric Clapton, Annie Lennox, Bob Dylan (actually Blood on the Tracks should probably made my top ten - but what to shunt?), Joan Armatrading, James Taylor, Johnny Cash, Kirsty MacColl, Ladysmith, Rod Stewart........ oh there are just so many!
There are certain phrases that drive me insane even though I occassionally catch myself uttering them. The very worst of these is, 'at the end of the day' - aaghh. I quite liked these definitions of some other such banalities:
All things considered = I've just come up with this
Allegedly = What I'm saying is true, but I don't want to be sued
Apparently = I've just heard an urban myth
Basically = This is going to get complicated
Coincidentally = My story is unoriginal
Essentially = Unimportantly
I'm away to meet with my fellow Youth Leaders and then dash to Housegroup
Labels: Elvis Twins
Oh yes, Kirsty of course, how could I have forgotten.Tsk.

It wasn't high esteem........ but Self Esteem by Offspring!!! Impressed if you meant it and yes actually impressed if you didn't!
I'm not going to argue with anyone that has that much chest hair!
Yeah good 1 on the music front but what is wrong with Captain Beefheart? Doesn't J's list look very similiar to yours though.....very interesting!
Still loving the blog!
I'm borrowing your definitions, I'll let you have them back when I've finished with them!!

My TWOSON, VEGAS KID would have been very impressed if I had included Offspring in my blog!
