Is There Any Life?

Today marked the first anniversary of the 7th July terrorist attack on London. At the time of the 2 minute silence, noon, I was in Picadilly Gardens in sunny Manchester. It was quite shocking when something not unlike an explosion went off only a few hundred metres from where I was standing. My initial reaction was to think "Oh s**t! A terrorist attack? On July 7th? How sick are these terrorists?"

Then I remembered the noon silence. The irony is that they sparked silence with noise. After the peoples original "WTF?" moments had been realised all fell silent. Every bus came to a standstill, as did every tram and car. Some people even stopped in the middles of the roads to observe the silence. It was eerily quiet. The end started like the start, with a loud BOOM! marking the end of the two minutes.

I've Been Busy
That's why proper updates have been scarce. However content shall now resume being added.

The Very Best of YouTube
Different. Very different. Probably appealing to fans of the anthro art form (ie. me). So here it is.

Changing Rooms
This blog's design will soon change to one I made myself. It will make the blog fully mobile capable and will also house a variety of new stuff, as well as the old. However to do this I must (in effect) remove every past entry. Enjoy it while you can! 'Cause you aren't getting it back!

/ Update
Scrub that. I'm keeping all the old posts! You'll just have trouble reading them!
