WeLoveWidgets.com is one of the best examples of a feeding the MySpace beast start-ups I’ve seen in a while. At the moment they are only offering horoscope widgets for all the social networks but if they expand which if they have any sense they will do, they could have loads of widgets and really generate some traffic once they get round MySpace.
I was pointed in the direction of a Wikipedia page on Pastafarianism recently which is a religion founded in 2005 by Bobby Henderson in protest to the Kansas State Board of Education requiring intelligent design creationism to be taught in schools.
Basically the religion believes that the universe was created by the “Flying Spaghetti Monster” or FSM for short. It’s quite an interesting read and makes a very good point that it’s no less rational than traditional Christian creationism. The open letter he sent to the school board also makes for an interesting read.
Oh and if you want to read more, the Gospel is available on Amazon :D.
Ok so just got home from work. I got a call from Gary at McDonald’s at 4pm asking if I could work tonight, “get in as soon as possible till about 10ish.” I told him I’d be in for 5. That way I had enough time to get ready but not enough time to not have an excuse for not washing my hair before I came in. Worked till about 10:15 so not too bad, an extra £20 or so at least.
I actually found it ok today, I’m now sorted on pretty much everything on the grill side so I could actually be classed as a useful member of the team now, to an extent at least. It was pretty dead tonight, half the time I was managing the grill side by myself. We had turned half the grills off by 9pm given the amount of people in although around 10 the chavs began to amass.
Tomorrow is going to be a killer though as I’m working 4pm till close (which is about 2-3 in the morning). Once I’m through that I’m ok though, the only shift I have after that (until Sunday at least, don’t know the schedule from Monday onwards) is Saturday which is like 4:45 till 11:45 and it’s usually dead Saturday nights, it’s Saturday lunch time and breakfasts which are major busy which I will avoid.
Otherwise life is going ok. Work is keeping me busy so I don’t have that much time to dwell upon how much time life sucks. Although it also means I am getting very little work done on other projects which really sucks.
This evening myself, Kieran and Claire went on a bar explore, later to be joined by Sophie, John and Physics Chris. We started by getting food at Weatherspoons and our total list was…
At Weatherspoons at all ordered drinks before getting told we got free drinks with out meal so we ended up having two drinks there. After that we headed to Firefly which was empty so we skipped that and then went to the Sports Cafe which we got turned out of because Claire didn’t have any ID. So next stop Revolution where we got a pitcher of cocktail.
Next step was Tiger Tiger which was closing at 10 by the time we got there so we headed to Nu where we were told we were 21. So we went to Carpe Diem which had some awful entertainment so we went to Ashes which was closed for a private function. It’s a conspiracy! Still we ended up at Sqaure and discovered Blueburry Bacardi Breezer so it’s all good. We also came up with a new saying…
You know it’s been a good night when you wake up in Equador
So yeah, good night. Still plenty of new bars to explore ready so that I can be the “experianced veteran” in freshers week but that’s a good few struck off :p.
