The Megaphone : A Debate Blog

So, last night I went to see this film Stranger Than Fiction. It is a really good film, I would recommend everyone watches it, not least because the unconventionally sexy Maggie Gyllenhaal is in it. The film is about this guy who starts hearing a woman’s voice narrating his very ordinary life. Anyway, the narrator says “little did he know of his imminent death” (or something to that effect). So with the knowledge of his impeding death he begins asking the question…

If you knew you were going to die… what would you do?

Obviously in the film he begins living his life in the way he always wanted to (sorry for ruining it for you all). So in a blatant act of plagiarism I ask you the exact same question.

After seeing the film I began asking myself the same question. I realised that there is nothing particularly interesting that I would like to do (like going to kiddies space camp). I would just want to spend as much time as possible with the people I love most.

Is there anything I have overlooked that I really should want to do? What would you do? I suggest we all start doing this in a bizzare cult like Megaphone pact… who’s in?

Let me know in my beautiful typing square found below.

p.s. with the disgraceful canceling of quiz maina by ITV… what the hell am I supposed to watch on TV? Suggestions below, thank you.

Last weekend Channel 4 were showing one of those “how are we going to fill 5 hours this evening” 100 greatest programmes, entitled “100 sexiest stars”. I don’t know if any of you watched this, and I don’t know who “won”. Admittedly the part I watched were the fairly low numbers, from about 85 to 70 I think.

I don’t know how much Tony Blair paid to be featured in this list, but Channel 4, don’t even try and deny he did… you’re not fooling us. I’m not kidding… I wish I was, he featured above Jim Morrison from the Doors. This is craziness. Don’t even get me started on Abi Titmuss being in there, Holy Crap. I’ve seen men that are better looking women than Abi Titmuss.

So Today I wonder. Who is the most sexiest of all the sexy sexiest celebrities?

For me it has to be Shannyn Sossamon on the female front, and maybe Johnny Depp on the male side.

What do you kids think? And if anyone says Abi Titmuss… I will hunt you down and attach clothes pegs to your nipples.

Tell me now in my American Style digital comment creator below.

I wasn’t intending to post today, and never in a million years did I think I would post one of those spammy kind of e-mails. But today I was e-mailed this thing and it is properly annoying.

I think it has something to do with the dividing and taking away… and maybe something to with the .33333 reoccurring thing that 3 times adds up to one. If there is anyone who is not crap at maths could you please explain how this works so I can actually sleep tonight… Where’s (the guilty pleasure) Carol Vorderman when you need her.

Anyway… enough of the jibber jabber… fool

3 men go into a motel. The man behind the desk said the room is £30, so each man paid £10 and went to the room.

A while later the man behind the desk realised the room was only £25, so he sent the bellboy to the 3 guys’ room with £5. On the way the bellboy couldn’t figure out how to split £5 evenly between 3 men, so he gave each man £1 and kept the other £2 for himself.

This meant that the 3 men each paid £9 for the room, which is a total of £27, add the £2 that the bellboy kept = £29.

Where is the other pound?

I am not speaking of the awful garage DJ’s on Radio 1, nor am I speaking of that really bad TV show. Today I want to play psychiatrist and learn about what has been going on in your innermost thoughts.

I find dreams amazing. How these stories your brain musters up can really terrify you, or make you really, really happy. I have been procrastinating keeping a dream journal for a long time, so until I do, I’m just going to tell you about this morning’s dream.

So I woke up this morning to the sound of my alarm, I was thinking ‘oh I’d best get up or I’ll be rushing like usual’ but then I drifted back off. I started dreaming that I had gotten out of bed and started getting ready for work. So I showered and got dressed and went downstairs to make breakfast. My housemate was down there and he asked me “Do you fancy a drink?” to which I replied “I wouldn‘t mind a glass of water” and he said “No, I mean a proper drink. I’ve got wine or beer or vodka… I’m thinking of having a couple of tequilas if you fancy it”. I was thinking It’s a bit early to be drinking… but the I remember thinking ‘well if you’re having one, then I might’. But then I woke up, half expecting to go downstairs to see my housemate lining up the shot glasses.

I want you to tell me about any weird dreams you have had.

Has anyone ever had any dreams that have come true? Or premonitions… or do most of your dreams consist of sleeping with Mr T. Let me know in my incredibly sexual comments box below.

p.s. Congratulations to Fern on giving birth to future heartbreaker Declan. Hopefully all this talk of dreams will help you sleep.
