 Fats Waller Biography |
Music: Your Feet's Too Big - Fats Waller "It's an old jazz number, it's funny. You can listen to the MP3 online." |
|

 New Scientist |
Magazine: New Scientist "It's hard science in a language anyone can understand. The Q&A is my favourite section, a 5 year old kid asked this fantastic question, 'Why doesn't the moon have a name? Can we call it Eeyore?' The answer is that there is no reason for not calling it Eeyore as far as I can tell." |

 Amazon Review |
Book: The Third Policeman - Flann O`Brien "This is absolutely insane. "It reads like the strangest acid trip in history, except it's not about drugs. "I am also a sucker for cheesy sci-fi." |

 Kim Wilde Fan Site |
Celebrities I want to have sex with: "Madonna, because she is Madonna, not because she is attractive. "Patsy Kensit, I'd love to have shagged her, but she's now tainted by Liam Gallagher. "Sam Brown, I always wanted to shag her, but she's not a celeb anymore, so she doesn't count. "Kim Wilde & Debbie Harry. "Basically anyone who was a celeb when I was teenage and hormonal. "And the Fat Geri from the Popbitch-Explode party. "However I have a lovely girlfriend now, you can kill her in a space invaders style game i wrote with Rob." |

 Mpeg video |
Thing I've been emailed: Head Explode Video "It made me laugh, I was unsure whether the download size would effect it's passonability, but it's clearly working." |

 Mr Men Fan site |
TV: Mr. Men "It's what I would make if I was making TV. I wish I'd made it." |
|

 The Guardian |
Newspaper: The Guardian "If you want to know what's going on, it feeds you the news, and they once mentioned my swearotron." |
|

 Planet of the Apes Fan site |
Film: Planet of the Monkeys "It had an evil monkey, a cave woman in a bikini and big explosions. What more could you want?" |
|

 Blode animation |
Best thing I've done: "I'm torn. They are so different. I prefer Blode to the Frightened Boy. "Monkey Invaders is still one of my favourites. "I love the Guru stuff. I wish I had more time to do it. "Have you seen FlipFlopFlyin's OAQ stuff has gone a bit guruish? "He wants to set up a 'Shit is Good Summer Camp' for B3ta. 'It'll be like a gay cub scouts - but gayer.', he claims." |
