Alex Cornell - Time is running out (originally by Muse)

Alex Cornell is a designer and part-time musician who blogs a bit on ISO50.  I love covers.

The first ever tumbleCal project!

This is awesome. Mine will be up later today.

I started a thing!  Do-It-Yourself calendars might be the way forward, especially when they involve pins.  Matt’s is brilliant too (and more colourful than mine!).  I hope you enjoy it if you do decide to make it for yourself!  I know I need a calendar at Christmas more than any other time of the year!

I love this woman.

My girlfriend loves this woman more than I do … lucky!

Hello!  It’s been a mad old time lately!  Friends visiting, 2 year old’s birthday’s, hangovers, illness, homework, christmas organising … feels like it’s been a bit non-stop!  But I have been taking photos and such, so if there are any good ones I’ll post them soon (my mum actually complained I don’t put any on facebook … she had it before me can you believe?!)!  It’s all been so so good though!  Life is good!

If you have never heard “Alice’s Restaurant” by Arlo Guthrie (yes son of Woody Guthrie, American folk singer/legend/hero), you have never had a proper Thanksgiving. Have yourself a listen.

I love this song - it was the exact right length to listen to on my way to my old job, and it made me laugh.

Aside from this one which I wrote for college, I’ve only ever written two poems.  One was for high school, and was about a girl I fancied.  The other was for my friends at a party we had.  What I’m trying to say is, I’m not a poet - but I hope you like this.

This is a poem that I wrote from my outcome on Persuasion, the idea being that we’d write a page of poetry, prose, whatever and read it to the class to persuade them to a certain way of thinking.  I wrote this satirical poem to persuade people that bullying is wrong, and there is no justification.

What’s the big deal anyway?
I only called a straight guy gay,
Kicked him when I pushed him down,
Why should people start to frown?

I just don’t get it.

THANK YOU MATT GORMAN.

I think the live DVDs are better than the actual show, but it’s original and surreal which is what British comedy is best at.

So a few days after I posted my script away, I got a standard reply (on a postcard no less) saying that the BBC had received my script.  The best bit about this is that the card had my script’s title on it, which means that someone at the BBC has read at least the cover page! That’s kinda cool!

Mind you, it does also say “you should hear from us within four months.”  That’s a hell of a long time… oh well!  At least I’ve got meeting Lorraine Kelly to look forward to!

I sent a script I wrote to the BBC yesterday.  It’s funny because it’s exciting, but at the same time I don’t really expect anything to come of it - their unsolicited scripts department must get tonnes of submissions!  Still, I thought I’d give it a go (it doesn’t hurt to try)!

(And yeah, there’s a shop called Fancypants in the script - I called it that as a placeholder and it just kinda stuck!)

Jen painted her clay Santa which I posted about the other week.
