Packing up is hard to do…

Apologies regarding the radio silence. I’m a little distracted at the moment by an upcoming move (again). The studio equipment is dismantled, so no new music – or discussion of said new music – for a few months I fear.
On the plus side, this looks awesome! I can’t wait to see it

A bunch of stuff, mostly awesome…
Posted by One Inch Man | Filed under Awesome, Funny, Geek Stuff, Movies, Music, Random, Video
First of all, I should apologise for the appalling lack of updates lately.
I really have no excuse. I’ve simply been too busy arsing around on Twitter or watching X-Files or Burn Notice or Charlie Brooker’s Screenwipe to bother!
So I figure a quick stream of consciousness post about awesome stuff I’ve seen or heard lately might help make up for it.
Before I try and think of awesome stuff though, let me start be mentioning something despicable.
Namely ‘journalist’ Paula Murray’s sickeningly vile excuse for an article in a recent edition of the Scottish Daily Express.
Rather than try to explain in detail here, I shall instead refer you to the blog of TV writer, actor, director and burgeoning web crusader, Graham Linehan.
His recent post on the article and the subsequent campaign to get the paper to apologise and is far more eloquent and informative than anything I could hope to write on the subject.
Besides which, you should check out his blog anyway because he’s a bit of a legend.
Just promise me you’ll come back here when you’ve finished. Deal?
The Express Wins The Race To The Bottom
Finished? Shameful excuse for front page news isn’t it? I hope you signed the petition!
Anywho, at least Graham’s blog is jam packed with other funny stuff, so it’s not all doom and gloom.
Consider Why, That’s Delightful! Awesome Thing Number 1.
Awesome Thing Number 2:
I’ve watched countless excellent videos on YouTube recently (mostly via Twitter recommendations). Here’s a few of them.
Kutiman Remixing YouTube
That’s right, fantastic music made by sampling YouTube instructional videos! The best bit is the fact the songs have ready made music videos themselves. Genius.
You should visit his channel and watch all his other videos too. Freakin’ brilliant! Kutiman’s Channel
David Letterman Bill Hicks Apology
On January 30th 2009, after more than 15 years, David Letterman finally apologised for screwing Bill over just before his tragic death by inviting BIll’s mother on the show and finally broadcasting the routine that sparked the controversy.
It’s surprisingly moving and the routine is unsurprisingly brilliant.

Part 2 (Interview with Mary Hicks)
Part 3 (The long lost routine)
Awesome Thing Number 3:

Oh. My. Days!
I’m so excited about this. Where The Wild Things Are is one of my favourite things in the universe.
Anywho, I’m gonna stop at 3 so I’ll have plenty of other things to post in the future.
Until then
