Yeah, that's why I showed some of his stuff to some friends here in the UK (they liked it a lot) I was curious if it would 'translate' as to language but also culture. I think he's still really funny though :-) The Dr. Hemmington one cracked me up again just now. Lucky Louie: Brilliant!!

I totally agree on Louis CK, that was a nice discovery, thanks to whoevers post it was I foud him through. I can now share my favourite Dutch comedian with yous, seeing as he's doing shows in the UK now and someone's put the complete tv recording online. He's really absurd/funy/extreme: Let me know what yous think?

I love my headrush.

New album fully streamed: 3VOOR12 Speler

I think I must be gay....

What do you use to record onto PC? I finally want to get a good EP recorded, so now I'm looking at getting a good (but affordable) audio interface to complete my recording set up (so not the pricey ones). Looking at a Yamaha Audiogram, M-Audio Fast track, Tascam US-122I, Line6 Pod Studio UX1, among others. I can't find a lot of reviews online so thought I'd try it here. Any experience/advice? Thanks.

That was ace. I've actually set myself a reminder so I don't forget to watch next week! SSSWEET!

He was talking to a 15 year old mentally extremely retarded kid (nice kid but no recognisable words, mind of a 2 year old, that idea) who had gotten a bit violent during puberty. He grabs this kids hands and immediately says "oh he's telling me he was very happy when he was eight"........

You'd need more than a gag for me tho.

Yeah but at least Anita was hot! Still kinda is?

On a similar note: can you take back Derek Ogilvie too please? He's on Dutch tv twice a week. What a fraud. (Had never heard of him when I lived in Scotland. There must be a reason for that)

I just hope she does that AFTER I leave Holland for the US

Please don't let her out of Scotland again. She's pretty popular here in the Netherlands and I puke a la Southpark everytime I hear that fucking song.

Oh wow! Comic Sans! Great choice!!!

Well thank fuck. Never liked the kitchen cynics and never will.

I love xkcd. Just put this image on my facebook. Shame you can't get the mouse-over here though.

Secret Russian Brain Lab Awesome.

Queen, Biggie, Oasis, all the well known vocal melodies fed to Songsmith. The results are hilarious. I'm particularly keen to the Beastie's Intergalactic. Wonderwall. I did not think Oasis could be more crap. But here it is! Tech Central - Times Online - WBLG: Top 20 tracks remixed by Microsoft Songsmith

No idea on luthiers but you might want to have a look here: http://www.buildyourguitar.com/books/books.asp I built a lap steel and the book was pretty damn good.

It's certainly doable, but you need to amp up the sound properly through a good (pre-)amp. I built a test version with a pignose and it sounds pretty cool/good! You need to isolate the cone really good, you can easily leak most of your sound. I had to sell the amp because I moved abroad, but I will certainly build one again.

Agreed, it's just an attitude thing but also very much a planning thing. It also depends on what the (local) government wants to do. There was an article in the paper here just today asking why there were less accidents/deaths in traffic here even though we don't wear protective clothing, moron-helmets, etc. I've seen the critical mass thing before, it's absolutely ace. However, in Aberdeen hardly anyone will participate... Dutch Have Safest Cycling Streets : TreeHugger Has got some interesting points too (also in comments). Love you too Hugh.
