reading a book...

i am reading a book, that has taken 300 pages to get good...

the first 300 aren't bad, they're just a preamble to the bit where it gets good...

its all right though... there's over 500 pages left...

let's hope it doesn't burn itself out to quick now eh?!

squash 2...

the squash is back...

in a bigger bottle...

same destructions... 
(for simplicity's sake)

however the serving suggestion is still sadly missing...

pretend rice krispies should be served with milk... and an owl.
(that's what it says on the box)

(don't argue with the box man...)

discography (releases like buses...)

word up you crazy cats!!

there's a whole bunch of random fatbwoi music floating out and about in the world of cyberspace... usually random demos, radio appearances and such-like... there's been very little out there for the discerning listener to download...

i've been questioned several times as to when i'm going to release something, and let it not be said that fatbwoi release's are like buses, it definitely wasn't a case of nothing for ages and then three turn up at once...

honest...

so without further ado, here is -

see you there...

computron is such a dick...

computron is such a dick....

let's face it, by the end of G1, transformers was getting a bit confused... there were firecon's, seacons (fish decepticons), pretenders, little mini car guy's that shot sparks outta their asses...

not to mention headmasters, targetmasters and powermasters...

i have to admit that, at the time, i thought the headmasters and targetmasters were quite cool... two robots in one, and BIG guns - the toys were quite cool... the idea was a bit weird, why would you want to get engineered, don armour, and become a big robots gun?!

and by the same premise... who the hell would want to be a powermaster? get yourself engineered into a suit and become a giant robot's battery...?! uhm,... what-now?!

its fair to say that in the end, it did all get a bit 'gimick-y'...

the first real gimick was the combiners, and some of the early one's were quite cool... (there was maybe an issue with scaling, motormaster was supposed to be the same size as optimus prime, but was like some kind of mini-truck, out of scale with every other transformer in existence) ... there was bruticus, defensor was quite cool cos he had blades on his arm...

devastator...

then a few sh!t ones...

a return to form with the predacons... i loved the g1 predacons, they combined in a way the dinobots always should've, but didn't...

but even this gimmick lost its cool eventually...

i mean, just what in hell is going on by the team we get to the seacons... they're a bunch of fish... and computron, wel...

i guess i even get the gimmick with fish... the decepticons were going quite 'animal' at the time...

but computron is just a massive nerd, made from futuristic looking vehicles (his arm is something akin to a tron cycle, and there's some kind of guns at the front plane)...

so the decepticons go a bit primal... the autobots just create the next super-nerd in (let's face it) a long line of super-nerd's including perceptor and c3-po... well ok that's not true, but he might as well be...

scoot! oh yeah, well hard probability boy...

personally i think i'd prefer it if super intelligent grimlock had stuck around... it would have been funny to watch the technobots get whooped as he did, as without the upload they were pretty darn useless...

what i never understood as a kid, was why all the leaders of the combiner teams used to go to the trouble of indentifying each member of the team clearly, and then stating the name of their combined form... i get it now, the whole advertising angle... 

but as a kid i used to just think "if you spent less time clearly identifying each other, and rabbiting on the problem with which you are about to deal would already be solved!"

... "surely you know the name of your combined form... you must have done it hundreds of times before..."

"don't call me shirley..."

"oh! uhm,... ok then..."

band for the day 161111

presenting (via the magic of http://wwwbandfortheday.com) 

...your 'Band For The Day' 16th November 2011 - 

Fatbwoi

so if you found yourself with a mysterious hankering for some bwoi-ton tunes today, its probably subliminal microwaves transmitted from the internet via a wide variety of tele-communication and computing devices...

(or something...)

i even won a prize... a golden amp!! or more accurately, a winners 'badge' for my website complete with WWFC style old-gold (orange) lettering - i likes orange i does...(this came bundled with the knowledge that should i win band for the day two more times, i'll be inducted into the BftD Hall of Fame - which has rather a nice ring to it, don't ya think?!)

so humpday actually sprang an ok surprise... (although there was an extremely limited range of noodles in tesco's, but we'll leave that for another time...)

although don't in any way feel that listening to bwoi tunes is any less of an enjoyable experience on days that are not the 16th of november... i'll bet it would make your thang shake just the same on the 17th and 18th too!! why not try it?! its a lot less hassle than those derren brown hypnosis 'experiments'...
