Reason 5. Opening ceremony | not quite sixty reasons
https://notquitesixtyreasons.wordpress.com/2012/08/04/reason-5-opening-ceremony
Reason 5. Opening ceremony. August 4, 2012. I was hoping the opening ceremony would be over/nearly over or at least ploughing on through by the time I got back. Who will be faced with state-run comprehensive of diminishing funds and resources? Osborne.Chancellor.Tory monetary policy for growth.olympics…right. The thing to remember is that they are only speaking to their own party faithful and are not being heard by the whole electorate;this was never more apparent than when Danny Boyle’s 27 million...

Reason 9. Dear John Lasseter | not quite sixty reasons
https://notquitesixtyreasons.wordpress.com/2013/02/02/reason-9-dear-john-lasseter
Reason 9. Dear John Lasseter. February 2, 2013. Seriously, what were you thinking? Why did cars 2 have to go down that road? Of course it was beautiful to look at, all Pixar films are. Damn, when I was growing up cartoons didn’t look that. I can, sort of, forgive the merchandising. If something is that good, why wouldn’t the audience want to take a bit of it home? Why would you dismantle, your own hard work? You put guns in the second movie. What? You put violence in the second movie. What? I’m sur...

Reason 12. Horse | not quite sixty reasons
https://notquitesixtyreasons.wordpress.com/2013/03/05/reason-12-horse
Reason 12. Horse. March 5, 2013. Throughout the horse meat scandal I’ve felt like I’m witnessing some perverse Grand National, where the horses that fall at the dreaded Beecher’s Brook are finding themselves being carted off to abattoirs across Europe to be reclassified as beef burgers. In all the media coverage, the resonating word is ‘ CONTAMINATION ‘. Watching this unfold has made me think, ‘When is someone going to ask the right questions? Why is no-one discussing the money? We didn’t though...

Reason 8. Lance Armstrong and how my brain works | not quite sixty reasons
https://notquitesixtyreasons.wordpress.com/2013/01/20/reason-8-lance-armstrong-and-how-my-brain-works
Reason 8. Lance Armstrong and how my brain works. January 20, 2013. Then something incredulous happened. After years of alleged negative drug tests and more denials than a Lehman’s brother executive in front of a senate committee, he only bloody goes on Oprah Winfrey’s television programme and admits to being a fake, drug taking,cheating,colostomy bag full of bullshit and piss. The televisual confession is an insult to anyone who listens to it. Who would have thunk it that Armstrong’s kryptonite wo...

The who, the why and the what | not quite sixty reasons
https://notquitesixtyreasons.wordpress.com/about
The who, the why and the what. The thinking behind this, (let’s pretend there is actually some plan and not just an excuse to randomly vomit subjective diatribes into an empty space), is to document at least a year. 52 posts of varying degrees of legibility, charting the reasons, observations, discoveries ,conclusions , (or lack of) that will explain, encourage and hopefully provide cheap therapeutic counselling that otherwise I would be unable to afford. February 12, 2013 at 10:33 am. Thanks Mark, IR...

Reason 10. Going, Going, Gone girl (see what I did there) | not quite sixty reasons
https://notquitesixtyreasons.wordpress.com/2013/02/23/reason-10-going-going-gone-see-what-i-did-there
Reason 10. Going, Going, Gone girl (see what I did there). February 23, 2013. If you haven’t read Gillian Flynn’s Gone girl and you intend to, you should probably skip this post. It’s not, however, going to provide a warts and all review or even an adequate synopsis but it might contain a few spoilers. Any-who the world and his wife have reviewed it: just google it. Gillian’s (too informal? I believe that Gillian Flynn will eventually write a book that will sit alongside my favourites with ease and confi...

Reason 7. Banter. January 18, 2013. 8220;I’ve just become massively intolerant of bullshit.”. I am right there. My intolerance of bullshit has found a plateau on which to hang its wrinkly grumpy ol’ arse. Of late,some things have twisted my melons,to varying degrees of irritation.From the slightly irritable,what the fuck? All the way to I want to kill someone.You know, just your usual,perfectly normal,range of emotions.Big smiley face with a colon,a dash and a capital d. Are you fucking kidding me? I wou...

Reason 6. The crust. January 12, 2013. I love this photo,it simultaenously makes me hungry and happy.Bread should make you happy;the eating,the breaking of,the sound of the crust cracking,the smell permeating the house,the butter hiding in all the nooks and crannies,the shattering or chewy crust.I love bread more than i love butter and I really love butter.
