I'm going to be a father! http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?bloggerID=11&y=2007&m=10# So, here we go again ranting on about the Beer Festival in Munich. http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?bloggerID=11&y=2007&m=10 New from the Sound Dwarf! http://www.rhubba.com/radio.php The latest audio sketch goes live http://www.rhubba.com/forum.php?pid=2&fid=1&tid=112&page=1#postTitle Check these out if you haven't seen them yet. Two funny short films produced for £50. http://www.rhubba.com/forum.php?pid=2&fid=1&tid=111&page=1#postTitle We're now in a position to release a new sketch on Rhubba every month for the next 6 months. So just to let you know, in future, the first week of the month will see a new sketch. http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=7#entry175 I don't know if you've caught the news story about the Queen allegedly storming out of a photo session... http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=7#entry172 I woke up this morning and found out I can do an impersonation of Gregory Peck. http://www.rhubba.com/movies.php Yes. Really! http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=5#entry158 It was pointed out to me yesterday that that a Boyzone song, that so many girls go weak at the knees at, has a nasty meaning if you examine it a bit more... http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=11&y=2007&m=5#entry157 You know how it is? You've heard some good things about a film. You've heard that it's a comedy. And it's got Jennifer Aniston in it! It's a chick-flick, so you and wifey can watch it together. http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=11&y=2007&m=5#entry154 Having seen Peep Show (a great series) and been invited to a school reunion recently, I have had to consider what makes people turn up to these events and why they do it! I have decided not to go to my school reunion and here are my reasons why you should stay away from them too, in no particular order... http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=11&y=2007&m=5#entry153 Writing the first words into the 'Guest Blog' is a bit like writing the first thing into your school exercise book. That's why that first page always took half an hour to fill with those perfectly formed letters. It's a pity that it only took you 2 minutes to fill up each page thereafter. http://www.rhubba.com/forum.php?feed=true&pid=2&fid=1&tid=102&page=1 Wikipedia really is the first stop for any information you might not know about. Consider their entry for shoelaces... http://www.rhubba.com/movies.php?ka_src=true Now you can rate Rhubba movie or radio clips.

In my book, truly great music lasts for over 10 minutes and has lyrics about energy curves, concomitant timelines and has 10 million chord changes. http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=4#entry145 Went to a wargame convention in London over the weekend. Go on, get your geek jokes out of the way now. Anyway, by now you'll have a firm image in your head of what a wargamer looks like: Big belly, thinning hair, poor personal hygiene, thick horn rimmed glasses, beard and probably wearing a Rush tour T-shirt from 1982. You're not far off the truth if you think that. http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=4#entry144 My friend Ming and I were talking about various science fiction shows of the past and present and by some random bit of logic, we got to a point where we thought that various science fiction shows are quite like girlfriends. http://www.rhubba.com/forum.php?feed=true&pid=2&fid=1&tid=95&page=1 Keith Richards admits he mixed his father's ashes in with cocaine and snorted it....I know we all like a bottle of pop sometimes but this is ridiculous! http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=4#entry143 I know someone who has a circuitous way of thinking and word association. Her brain orders stuff not along the lines of names, shapes, places, colours and the like, but in terms of a string of adjectives that when added up kind of make sense. It's as if all nouns have decided to go on stike in her brain and that adjectives are scab workers who the management have brought in to do extra shifts. http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=4#entry142 As I said in my last blog entry I've been away to Wales and the Cotswolds. I'm back now and can report that I had a lovely time in the Cotswolds and Wales was... http://www.rhubba.com/forum.php?feed=true&pid=2&fid=1&tid=90&page=1 I found a Malaria information website today: One that tells you where the dangerous spots for the disease are in the world, how to recognise the symptoms, how to avoid getting bitten and contracting it and what to do if you do come down with it. http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=3#entry141 We're off for the weekend to go to a friend's birthday party...you know the rules, whilst I'm away don't burgle my house...and we're shopping for a present. http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=3#entry140 Today scientists announced that they've been developing genetically modified mosquitoes that cannot carry malaria. A reporter on the news today spoke to one of the scientists involved and asked the question "but is tampering with mosquitoes in this way dangerous?" http://www.rhubba.com/forum.php?feed=true&pid=2&fid=1&tid=85&page=1 How about making a sketch (or ad for Irn Bru or possibly Heineken) that could be developed into a film and then possibly a major mini-series as follows... http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=3#entry137 Sorry for the lapses in the blog recently; a) I haven't been that well and b) I've been vair, vair busy of late... http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=2#entry136 ***NAME DROP ALERT! NAME DROP ALERT!*** http://www.rhubba.com/forum.php?feed=true&pid=2&fid=1&tid=83&page=1 For all you people who haven't got Quick Time to view our sketches, we have put two of the War Stalker sketches up on YouTube. http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=2#entry135 I spent 4 hours yesterday trying to get my MP3 player to work. I don't mean it was malfunctioning...oh no, I spent all that time trying to get it to work in the first place! http://www.rhubba.com/forum.php?feed=true&pid=2&fid=1&tid=82&page=1 I've just spotted an advert for Murphy Beds on this site. In case you didn't know, a murphy bed is... http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=2#entry134 Neighbours: Australia's top soap opera, chronicling the lives of the inhabitants of Ramsay Street, Erinsborough (a fictional suburb of Melbourne). But they don't chronicle the lives of EVERYONE in Ramsay street, however. http://www.rhubba.com/forum.php?feed=true&pid=2&fid=1&tid=81&page=1 B4 reading you might want to familiarise yourself with insane top TV programme, the Mighty Boosh. http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=7&y=2007&m=2#entry133 I can't go out today...I am quite literally, a man under seige! http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=2#entry132 I've been wondering what's become of my two guest bloggers: Wout Polders in Belgium and Professor Baigent, the War Stalker. http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=2#entry131 Filming of the new sketch went....well. http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=1#entry129 Whatever happened to the Mixed Grill? http://www.rhubba.com/blog.php?feed=true&bloggerID=1&y=2007&m=1#entry128 Poor Dion, jerked around by that bitch, Runaround Sue.
