The good and the bad
So, it's, uh, been a while since I seem to have had anything to say...
Well, that's not entirely true. I've just not had time to say anything - not even about the student protests - because work has been crazy busy and then at home I've been reading some of the books I've been meaning to read all year and have just realised that we're in the 2nd week of December, so if I want to read some of them before the end of the year, then I don't have long to do it in. And also catching up on various TV shows, although a lot of that will happen during the Christmas holidays, when the only show I'm actually interested in is the Dr Who special.
This also explains why the promised pic spam of Danny and Steve communicating while driving, hasn't happened yet. But it will. Eventually. I swear.
There will be a different post for the book reviews later.
But I came here to laugh and rant about two things
First, the rant
I think everyone here knows by now, but the bastards at Yahoo are closing down Delicious sometime in the near(ish) future.
The conformation
Here's a great post by bookshop about the potential replacements for Delicious But will anything ever be as good?
Second, the laugh
And it's a big, BIG laugh

I'm sorry, but HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Bad luck, Brad Wright. Apparently if you insult your fans and write a crap show, you get cancelled. Who knew?
Less funny - but very much in keeping with the way the PTB treat their cast and crew - is that the majority of the cast and crew found out that they were out of a job via Twitter and the Internet.
Those PTB are managing to stay classy until the bitter end.
Personally, I'm waiting to see how Brad Wright manages to blame the 'haters' of SGU for his failings. Could be hilarious.
