You can get it on Amazon Canada, Amazon USA, and Amazon UK.

The funny thing is that it’s $20 in Canada and $15 in the USA but since our dollars are par… lol

I wrote a novel about life on a planet named Gramma-Nine, which had low gravity compared to Earth. The people there used to fly around. Sometimes they jumped and never landed.

This created terrible problems for the people of Gramma-Nine. The law of gravity required that objects with mass attract each other. This was a problem because the people of Gramma-Nine were ugly.

This is what an asshole looks like.

But the Federal Government came through with an emergency program. It gave a heavy lead ball to every man, woman, and child on planet Gramma-Nine.

There was a cable with a harness on it attached from each ball. With the help of the balls, Gramma-Ninians could go on inhabiting the planet without fear of floating off into space.

Unfortunately, they were still ugly and died of lead poisoning.

i think the first docudrama i saw was supervolcano. ooh lorddy (trouble’s so hard), that was a good one. i watched it all the way through to 3AM… and i had class the next morning. fantastic. if the title didn’t give it away, the giant caldera at yellowstone park (in the USA) goes off and rains posion gas and volcanic ash over three quarters of the united states.

nobody believes them at first but yeah, thanks discovery channel, now i believe! i don’t quite remember why but the magma pockets scattered underneath the park start pooling together and form one giant pocket. vents start appearing all over the place, releasing poison gas + ash, and a super caldera forms. like a typical volcano all the water goes yellow (from sulphur i believe?) and the sun gets blocked out by the thick ash clouds. watch this docudrama, it’s sexy. what can i say? disasters float my boat.

the second docudrama i watched was called the last dragon. unfortunately, this one had nothing to do with sean connery’s epic movie, dragonheart. the version i watched was narrated by none other than patrick stewart! it’s hard not to believe every word that man says but it gets easier when you see dragons. i think the title pretty much explains this one, it’s about a dragon. they pretty much just filmed a documentary about eagles but replaced eagles with dragons.

i think you should all know, they’re showing how to weave things wicker on how it’s made, it’s making me all hot and bothered.

okay, the last one, which i just watched half an hour ago was called superstorm! yes, it’s like supervolcano but more so giant hurricane that will crush, kill, and destroy you all. they try to control/destroy a hurricane by seeding it.

i’ve lost my train of thought, i’ve just been thoroughly impressed by those people weaving chairs with wicker. holy shit. that’s amazing.

let’s end it here, i can’t wait for “race to mars” in september.

…We learn that Voldemorte has also split his soul into seven parts. These pieces were stored in “horcruxes”. One of the pieces is in Voldemorte as he used it to revive himself, one was in his (Tom Riddle’s) diary, one was in Marvalo’s ring, one was in the Slytherin locket, one is in the Raven Claw cup, yeah I’ve forgotten them. But Harry and Dumby go after the locket which wasn’t actually the real locket. Apparently an R.A.B. took it and disposed of it as he noted in his note in the locket. It is mentioned that horcruxes can also be made from animals! I have a feeling that Harry Potter is a horcux himself for Voldemorte, that would explain a lot. Remember they could share thoughts and feelings at one point?

R.A.B. is most likely Regulus Alphard Black which is Sirius’ brother who as James has pointed out is a deat eater (ex-deat eater?).

So since Sirius Black (Harry’s godfather) died in the previous book, Order of the Phoenix, Harry has inherited Grimwald place. I may have just mispelled that or got it wrong all together. This meaning he’s also gained posession of Kreacher the annoying bastard of a house elf. I’m hoping Harry’s inheritance actually has something to do with book seven as JK didn’t even write the house into the book…

I’m having a nerdgasm. I was right about book 7 circa Tuesday, July 19, 2005.

So according to our countdown clock, we’ve got 14 days and 10 hours until the official release of Hospital Music.

Since the album’s been streaming on Matthew’s website for the last month or so, we already know what to expect. I’ve never particularly been a fan of the pre-release idea and this is probably why I’m not feeling overly excited about the new release. But it is good, you could even say Avalanche good. I guess I’m just trying to say that the whole “stream the album before it’s released” thing kind of ruined that Christmas morning feeling for me.

My advice to you, if you like the band, just wait it out to the release date rather than having a listen beforehand.

You can read more about Hospital Music on our parent site: Near Fantastica or you can order the album for $12.96.
