DOOM IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello readers of this blog. Obviously most of you are horrible people (Chris and Emily can ignore this), I mean honestly. I gave you the biggest hint last post that you should comment but none of you did. So I am raging at you all to comment. When Emily writes things like this, people comment so I'm hoping you will all now comment.

In other news I have decided to put a new pointless line every time I am just typing to relieve boredom or for random effectiveness. This will come in handy as you should now know when to read and when you shouldn't.

So today I ask you if you believe in life on other worlds. And I'm not talking about little green men that come and abduct people, steal sexual organs from cows and are secretly trying to take over the world by making pacts with the US government. I'm just talking about life on other planets. This can range from tiny microbes to really cheesy-low-budget-scifi-film-style aliens.

Now this question may seem obvious there are many layers to this mystery. Of course you can believe in actual aliens, or you can actually believe that there is life on other planets like Mars or moons like...the Moon. Just this life wouldn't have evolved separately, but have been bought there from Earth. No those greenies aren't at it again, I'm talking about bacteria hitching a ride on a lunar lander or two. Now NASA says that they thoroughly clean the ship before launch, but if life can survive at the bottom of the ocean in boiling hot waters I fairly certain they can survive bleach (This isn't all they do). Of course this isn't the only possibility and there might be life on Mars that didn't originate on Earth but it would most likely be underground.

Now let us get back to the question at hand. If life were to only have evolved on Earth, that suggests that in the almost infinite volume of space, with literally billions of stars if not trillions, that Earth is special. I though we got rid of that when we debunked the Earth-is-the-center-of the-universe theory.

Now I have more to say but I'll tell you next post. Right now I wish to talk to you about something but first,

*POINTLESS*

Lots of people will think that Doom is mentioned as in these blogs chronicle disasters. But this is wrong. Doom is actually a hero. Here is his title.

Doom, defiler of logic, destroyer of fun incarnate, hero of the battle of Toy'R'Us, Destroyer of New Jersey, Rebuilder of New Jersey, Subsequent Destroyer of New Jersey, Subsequent Builder of a hole where New Jersey should be, Doctor Manhattan's boss, Creator of Coca Cola, Leader of the 'I hate Diet Coke' society, Slayer of Grues, Creator of Grues, Owner of the phrase 'Beware of Grue', 'There is light, Grues will be eaten by Doom', Owner of the Dark Tower, manager of the Devil's fiddle career, Overlord of this and every dimension, Why there is no life on Mars, what fear fears, why the world's horrible, subsequently why the world is good, the Powerful and Intelligent Wizard Morphumax, Owner of the black sedan parked in the disabled lot, teacher of Roland, He who's mother was a hamster and who's father smelt of Elderberries, Slayer of Chuck Norris, Death and all his friends, the Question, the Beam itself, Author of "How to be a Evil Villain", the one who always knows where his towel is, Schrödinger god, the Lord of the Rings and the glorified slayer of Edward Cullen.

Goodbye

Who keeps not commenting? Stop it!! It's not funny you know.

Yes hello to all of you and as you may have guessed I am all very disappointed in your non-commenting phase. Once upon a time I was getting 5 comments a post. Now look. I'm lucky to get two. And I'm being serious. Thank you to both Emily and Chris who have continued to comment. And remember if you have a comment you can post anonymous.

Now I am here to you to discuss more about the evil price differences in stores. I have recently come up with a definition for the executives of 'Borders':

Executives of Borders: (n) A bunch of pompous, greedy, idiots who will be the first against the wall when the revolution comes.

Curiously a copy of the Encyclopedia Britannica that I got from a time travelling trip to the year 3000 described them as:

Executives of Borders: (n) A bunch of pompous, greedy, idiots who were the first against the wall when the revolution came.

So back to seriousness. If you have ever been to an honest to god game store you would realise how expensive they are. Copies of Far Cry 2 that were used were $80 at EB games, while brand new copies were $85 at Big W.

But before I rant on about the same thing I did last week I've decided to think before I write. So new topics. New topics. What do I have to rage about? Oh yes.

I have officially decided that it is physically impossible for me to take over the world. This is because of how easily I feel guilty. On my birthday me and a bunch of other people (I know it's meant to be 'a bunch of people and I', but I think that the way the English language is going it will become the way I've wrote it) were in Newcastle. A lot of you were there so you should remember this. Well we stumbled along a fair (carnival, theme park, what ever) and one of the many things that we found was a game where you can win prizes (as you generally do at fairs). And Rhiannon won a plastic crown. She wore this for a while and at the end she asked if she should take it off, I said yes citing the fact that it looked ridiculous.

Now here is where it get's interesting. Instead of letting her take it off, I took it off for her. Well it sought of broke. Not significantly just one bit from it. Now she stopped talking to me for a while (and forgot it was my birthday) but we talked again before she left. However I felt majorly guilty for the next couple of days about it. On Thursday I brought her a stuffed animal so I felt better. But that's beside the point (and anyway I just really wanted to buy her something, that was just an excuse. Still felt guilty though).

So anyway as you can see I will not be taking over the world. Unless I bluff my way through. Then I would probably still feel guilty about that. And then I would give it back.

So anyway I will be going now.

Bye.

P.S. Rhiannon. No guilt trips ok.

"It's like communism but it works." - Me, 2008

It appears once more that I have nothing to talk about. This is rather irritating unless you are some sought of demon that thrives on the boredom of humanity. Thankfully such things don't exist so we don't have to worry about their noxious influence.

What to talk about. Well my birthday was pretty fun and I thank everyone who went to it for coming. You are all heroes of our age as opposed to Solo Guy who is a hero of all ages simultaneously. So the only way to get more heroic is to drink Solo (honest to the God I don't believe in this is not an ad).

Also I would just like to thank everyone who commented on last weeks blog. It was a change form my normal non-serious work and I hope you all see how important it is that I actually look in that direction. So after a quick bit of thinking I have come up with a topic to discuss this week, the incredible over pricing of the shopping chain 'Borders'.

Now I went to Kotara with Rhiannon yesterday and it came to both our attentions the price difference between 'Borders' and everywhere else. Now I bought two things from 'Borders' a Doctor Who DVD and a book called 'Time Travel in Einstein's Universe' by J. Richard Gott (an incredibly complicated book and that I somehow managed to determine anything from it is a miracle unto itself). The Doctor Who DVD was $30 and only had 3 episodes on it. Although anywhere else it is still pretty expensive it would be $25. Even K-Mart which is ludicrously expensive no matter what it claims still only costs $25 when it comes to Doctor Who.

Another example is the 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' and 'Angel' DVDs at 'Borders'. At Big W they are only $29 however at 'Borders' $33 (although Big W does always seem to have a sale on as Buffy is $29 at anytime you find it). But that isn't too bad compared to the ultimate in DVD overpricing. A NCIS season at JB-HiFi (which is normally a bit overpriced) $35. The price of the a season of NCIS at 'Borders', well I am going to have to make a who sentence in it's own paragraph for this.

$85.

Yeh. It's that bad. Ok it might have only been $80, I can remember the exact price but it's still massively overpriced. And it's not only DVDs. The book ('Time Travel in Einstein's Universe') cost $27 whilst only having 300 pages, 250 of them actually mattering. Add on to that the crease that appears down the back and the fact that it was published in 2001 and has been at the shop for that long it's really not worth it. Other books were still pretty expensive being between $30 and $60. This small book was the cheapest. Compare this to the 450 pages in a book I got from Angus and Robertson perfect condition and almost all the pages are relevant. This book was also $27. How these price differences be allowed.

Richard Dawkin's 'The Greatest Show on Earth' which I got for $22.50 at Big W (sale) and saw at Angus and Robertson for $32 was $37 at 'Borders'. Everything is so ridiculously overpriced. I wouldn't have bought any of this if I didn't already have Gift Cards for Borders that I got on Tuesday. It just goes to show you that no one gets their moneys worth these days. Come on Prices Justification Board; I know that fuel prices are ridiculous but you should realise that their are other major price problems.

So I ask you this week have you ever had major price problems with things you bought. Please comment I do like to know that their are people who read my blog and see all these problems that face us.

So here have decided to tell you something about my blog. See:

"It's like communism but it works."

So goodbye everybody.
