I’ve been listening to a really great band lately – The Kaiser Chiefs. They have recently released an album entitled Employment, you may have heard one song of theirs on the radio or television already – “Oh My God”.
The band have only recently formed (summer 2003 in fact), but you could be forgiven if you thought they were far more experienced, after all they have already been asked to play at the Reading and Leeds Festivals this summer.
Their music is a blend of rock and indie, the best band to compare them to is Franz Ferdinand, another band who have received recent success.
The band have named themselves after one of the biggest football teams in South America. They are not fans of that team though; they actually support Leeds United (good taste as well as good musicians!). The Kaiser Chiefs are the team Leeds United legend Lucas Radabe started his career.
If you don’t like football or Leeds United, don’t be discouraged by this, they don’t sing about football (although they are planning on releasing a song for Leeds United!), in fact apart from the bands name there are no other connections to the sport.
I highly recommend this album, go and buy it … now!

It's been stuck on 27% since what feels like the year 1927, so your guess is as good as mine as to when it will finish and allow me to blog again.

- KWYJIBO
I found an IQ Test online today.
I must admit - it was a lot shorter and easier than the one Bart cheated on, during that episode of The Simpsons, some stupidly long time ago! Despite its age, I am yet to see a Kwyjibo on a David Attenborough documentary.

- Power Cut
I had a power cut today. I'm pointing the finger of blame at Storm Hannah. Bitch.
Losing electricity is always a shocking and distressing experience. It's up there with your water being cut off, or a sudden disappearances of all oxygen and air.
Imagine if I had been blogging at the time of the thoughtless power interruption....

March 12th.
It was a very special birthday yesterday...
You may already be aware of who it was for - if not, perhaps you noticed the rather jazzy Google logo?
In case you still don't know what the hell I am on about, the Internet turned 30 yesterday... although there are many who still question the correct date...
