    This is nothing to do with the last 2 comments as far as I know but I’ve just googled me and I’ve never done that before and I’m no 3 and it’s a journal article I wrote - how cool is that?!

    I might be spending even less time on the blog now that I’ve discovered the delights of putting different versions of my name into google.  Thanks, Ros.  It wasn’t exciting when I was writing it!  When you get your Masters you could think about publishing! Cos I know how much you enjoy academic work.  Not that I’ve got a Masters………

    Hee hee… it didn’t really work written down did it?
     
    I asked Sian whether it would work and she didn’t think it would.  I guess she was right.
     
    I’ll get my coat.

    “witherspoon?”

    “No, with a knife”

    Actually, it works ok.  It made me laugh when I heard it and told it to everyone I knew anyway!

    Hey!
     
    Jonny Evans is famous!
    Well not really… but I was live on Gtv last night… thebandwithnoname were there too.. but I like to think that I was the main act.
     
    The flaw is that I only know one person in the world who watches The God Channel.. and she was on holiday! Viewing figures must have dropped 100%! hehe

    Ahhhh…so I was been a bit thick with the witherspoon thing. Never mind. At least noone has actualy been killed, that would be a shame. Jonny, were you playing on the tv? That sounds very cool! I (well my photos) will be used on the BBC program that is going out on good friday! This blog is fast becomming a blog of semi-famous people. We just need susie to land a big hollywood role now…

    Pete - surely a small hollywood role would be more apt if you are all becoming semi-famous?
     
    I once used a urinal stood next to Trevor Francis.  Does that count on the semi famous thing?

    Does anyone else worry that Ruth is offended?
     
    I’ve never known her to be this quiet for this long…

    Hmmm… good point… Ruth?  Come back Ruth

    Also - Gloria - have you heard about the car yet?

  • Andy

    Oh dear.  The reason Ruth had been quiet was because her comments were in the spam folder… I forgot to look.  Sorry.
     
    Ruth - I really don’t understand why your comments always get marked as spam… I’ve tried everything!  The first of the two comments above had a karma of negative 1000…  The second one only had bad karma of -23 - most of which was because of the top-gear link.  Try leaving the url box empty.

    At the other end of the spectrum… Mat’s comment above had a karma of 197.55.  He’s winning now.  Nearly 175 points above my comments.

    Ah…
     
    So when Mat dies he’ll come back as someone like Jonny Evans..

    Sorry Jonny - your Karma is only 10… you’re way below Mat in the re-incarnation stakes.

    Good job I don’t believe in that kinda mumbo jumbo
     
    Also… I think that bad Karma is a sign of commitment to the blog. It’s because I log on from so many different computers throughout the day.
     
    Ruth is the exception to the rule due to the many links and name changes…
     
    But that Jonny Evans… he is just darn plain committed!

    Mmmmm, chicken karma. 
    Not sure what I’ve done to have good karma. 
    I smiled at a homeless man on saturday.  After I kicked him and stole his pennies.  I didn’t really.

    Can anyone tell me why I’ve had the aquafresh advert going round in my head ALL DAY?! It’s driving me nuts

    What’s my karma rating? I really don’t understand how this karma stuff (on the blog) works. Also I don’t like the spell checker because it delays the letters appearing on the screen. It stopped me from typing the letter ‘r’ before for no reason.
     
    I just realised that it look like I’m calling your blog Andy… I’m not, I like the blog!

  • Pete

    Ruth, maybe its because you need to brush your teeth more than you do…maybe you should set yourself a target of once a week to start with and build from there?

    Basically, according to my understanding of Blog Karma, everytime you say something that andy thinks is good (such as ‘Andy is a football genius’) you get good karma. Everytime you say something that andy thinks is bad (even if its more truthfull, such as ‘Andy issnt a football genius’), you get bad karma. If you get lots of good karma andy will give you a pen, if you get lots of bad karma andy will send you to the 3rd world sweat shops where they make his pens. As I say, this is just my understanding of it, it may not be entirly accurate.

    that was a quick reply! Do you have the blog on all the time and just keep pressing reload?

    Pretty much…
     
    I’ve found a new way to escape the tedium of work…
     
    Don’t do any work. Sit in front of the computer with Andy’s blog open… if anyone ever comes into the office… quickly staple something… frown and say things like “there’s not enough hours in the day” and “My word… I am rushed off my feet today!”
     
    So far… it works like a charm - promotion is already being talked about…
     
    hehe
