I am back!
Aren�t you glad?
I just had some more to say really�Oh, and I�m bored so I�ve been GOOGLY-OOGALING (a-boog-a-loog-a-ling)
This morning I worked on a policy for �The Solent Group� which made my brain keep saying �Soylent Green. Soylent Green. Soylent Green.� I have heard of soylent green (it�s been mentioned on Futurama�how well-educated and cultured I am!) but I had no idea if it was a book or a film or some weird notion, so I looked it up. For those of you who DON�T know, it�s a film. I am not interested in the film, well, I am, but I KNOW it�ll be like Blade Runner and the film will in no way stand up to the wonderful images I can create in my own head. So, I googled the book that the film is based on. It�s called �Make Room! Make Room!�, and is by a guy called Harry Harrison (cruel parents�that�s in the same vein as Richard Head�and I KNEW someone called that (by proxy)) and I WANT it�but it�s out of print and I can only find ONE copy in the entirety of the UK and that�s �25�so I shall be attempting an international purchase from the Yankee Amazon :o) Yee-fucking-haw!
Actually, whilst looking for a link for the book I�ve read a really detailed review on it and I�m a bit :o( because apparently, the film is VERY different to the book (which I expected) BUT the thing that made me want to watch the film (I.e. �The secret behind Soylent Green�) isn�t part of the novel�s plot. I am all about the sick and twistedness of science fiction and was expecting the book be as sinister-sounding as the film. I am sorely disappointed. I do not want moral tales�I want CANNIBALISM! YEAH!
AND THE MADNESS CONTINUES�
Poonam pointed out to me that she was working on a policy for a client called �Euronete� (say it quick�no, quicker!)�so�it�s not often that someone tells you they�re booking a policy under the name �Urinate� and I demanded to see the spelling. I took one look and couldn�t resist handing it back saying��Someone is taking the PISS!�
Oh, how we laughed! (running gag c/o Robert Rankin)
