With a h/t to Rob, I wanted to highlight this video from U2′s recent release I’ll go crazy if I don’t go crazy tonight. Apart from the clever idea and the technical excellence of the production, I loved the idea of the Prodigal in this video.
Well, if you ever want to boost your blog stats, write a post about Robbie Williams! Not only has my little exploration of his latest song Bodies become my most viewed post ever and the most commented ever, but I’ve also had to refuse to publish a handful of comments for the first time ever! [...]
This afternoon, driving home from a meeting I caught Robbie Williams’ new single on the radio – his first for a couple of years entitled ‘Bodies’. Very interesting lyrics. God gave me the sunshine, Then showed me my lifeline I was told it was all mine, Then I got laid on a ley line What [...]

On Monday, I caught wind of a furore over at the Ship of Fools where a vicar has been accused variously of (allegedly) running several different online identities, using those identities to give his offline self rave reviews in the Mystery [...]
There isn’t much I watch ‘religiously’ on television. The West Wing (now sadly no more) and 24 and of course football (the english variety) or football (the american variety). However, one thing I have been watching ‘religiously’ over the last few weeks is the BBC 2 series on York Minster. Primarily, my interest is in [...]
As I sit here ‘on hold’ waiting for a faceless, nameless TV company to finally pull their finger out and sort out our TV troubles, it is hard not to feel cynical about certain aspects of the culture in which I live. From experiences of companies where telephonists cannot give out their names but only [...]
