Well despite the fact I’ve only had 3 days of ‘school’ this week, and despite the fact I’ve got a bucket load of homework, a weekend is a weekend and we should all cherish it.

Congratulations to the Year 9s everywhere, SATs are over and now you only have GCSES, A levels, University, a job and retirement to worry about…

In boring personal news- I got my hair cut. I always prefer it short as there is less to worry about, especially in the mornings when it refuses to straighten.

This blog has very quickly become the most popular page on this site, and has attracted new visitors from obscure search results. So howdy to you! I guess this shows people actually like it when things get updated. And talking of updating, why don’t people with broadband just install Windows Updates as second nature? ESPECIALLY at the workplace? OK, I know it’s much more of a pain than for home users, but for god’s sake, isn’t that what network admins are paid to do? Take a note, coastguard.

Advance warning – you can see it tomorrow at 6pm. After that the only place to watch The Simpsons advert free will be your DVD collection, so enjoy!

Of course, The Simpsons ain’t what it used to be anyway. IMHO, it lost its magic in season 9 onwards. Sure, it’s still a good show and fun to watch – but it feels completely different to ‘classic’ Simpsons, especially around seasons 4 and 5. The golden age. Oh well, all good things come to an end…

Nathan has landed.

Windsor was better than I thought. Luckily the Union Jack on Underpants rubbish seems to have been toned down somewhat, and it’s quite a fun place to spend a day just strolling around the city centre!

Michael Moore, the film maker responsible for ‘Bowling for Columbine’ is having trouble with Disney who are refusing to distribute his new film in the US. Why? Oh, because he decides to uncover a few truths about George W and his buddies Disney would rather he didn’t.

Here, I believe Newsnight will cover the story – 22:30, BBC2. For those of you who can’t stay up that long, read the story at BBC News, then for god’s sake see the film when it comes out!

That’s right… me. Wow. All hail Humanities trips.

Dunno why I’m posting this really. Ah well, I officially have too much time on my hands.

I also decided to switch my website to only use http://dominicself.co.uk (no www.) Hey, consistency rules and there’s no point having those little three letters, so out they go!
