Gemmill 44109 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Ass burgers. Is that a glossy top-shelf magazine? You're the one that read a book about it! It's a syndrome apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44109 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I am the wordplay master, it's true. Whenever they do a punning thread on here, the only reason it annoys me is because they're such amateurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetleftpeg 0 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Back from the Brink - Paul McGrath Now, usually footballers autobiographies are utter turd (anyone managed to get through all of Shearer's? Jesus Wept tbh) but this one is simply brilliant. It's well written (by his ghost writer obviously) and is a pretty honest account of the problems he had with drink. He also doesn't try to play the victim, he admits to being a twat when drunk, and pretty much being drunk most of the 90's. Excellent book imo.

Jimbo 172 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Second Son - Charles Sailor. Superb book, quite rare, its the story of a construction worker who falls from from a sky scraper but survives the fall, and discovers he has christ-like powers, the church try to prove he is a charlatan but the media promote him as the second coming, best book I've read in a long time.

Meenzer 15347 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I've raided the shelves of the gay section at Lewisham Library again - well, it's actually a trolley that they keep moving around. Social exclusion-tastic! - so I'll be ploughing my way through Colm Tóibín's The Story Of The Night and Felice Picano's The Book Of Lies over Christmas. Picked up Nick Cave's novel too, looked like it might be worth a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody's Perfect by Anthony Lane His music prior and including Tender Prey is amazing, it was only after they removed the needle from his vein that his music turned to pap.

Meenzer 15347 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I've been asked to play piano on a performance of "Into My Arms" at a friend's wedding next year. Well, they originally asked me to sing it too, but fuck that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tear the neck off the cheapest bottle of scotch you can find and smoke for the duration of the performance but never actually removing the fag from your mouth. Either that or invest in a dime cap of smack and live the experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that or invest in a dime cap of smack and live the experience. Now that'd do it. Depends if it's before or after the speeches I guess... Fortunately I have a friend who can do the song justice, though. His voice already sounds thoroughly fucked-up without any of the actual drugginess - a gift indeed.

Yeah yeah don't go all Patrokles on me, I know the difference between the musical god that is Tom and the drug induced musical medium that is Nick Cave but you have to realise that back in the good old days Nick the stripper was performed that way.

Guest alex Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Just finished the '100 Years of Solitude' which is class (as has been mentioned on here before) although it took me a while to get into it. Almost finished the excellent short stories collection 'Revenge of the Lawn' by Richard Brautigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
