WHY ALL THE QUESTIONS LIKE WHATEVER HAPPENED TO AND WHO DID THIS?

I've had an awful cold the past few days so stayed in all weekend like a boring old bitch or like Joan Crawford and Bette Davis in Baby Jane except I only left yesterday morning to buy some brekkie whereas Baby Jane only really left to hide a body or buy some booze.

I watched the camptastic Strictly Come Dancing with my favourite Spice Girl - Emma Bunton. She did a quickstep to die for with the hunky Darren Bennett who I'm sure must be gay and only married his slutty wife Lilia from Russia so she could work in the UK. I think this happens a lot with foreign dancers. I went to a dance show last year and one of the guys dancing was demonstrating a foxy rumba with his wife but I could tell the only action he had with his wife was sewing her sequins on her skirt. So it was all Strictly fabulous last night, the rest of the night was blah on TV but I flicked on a movie that I'd never seen before. I never really paid much attention to it and thought it was about a lawyer like a John Grisham movie but no.... Philadelphia was Tom Hanks playing a gay lawyer who contracts AIDS and is fired from his firm. The story is of his trial and his journey as AIDS advances and eventually kills him. Well between the cold and then the tears for literally about ten minutes before the end of the movie, I was a mother fucking shell of a woman. I had no idea about this movie and how hard hitting it was. Tom Hanks was superb as was Denzel Washington and the story was dealt with brilliantly. I had written a big long speech just there about AIDS but deleted it as it didn't make much sense and I couldn't convey my thoughts on the matter properly.

Moving on to something completely unrelated, I've downloaded some good old British pop tracks from yesteryear. Who remembers The Honeyz with their tracks that all sound the same? End of The Line and Never Let You Down. Throw in a bit of Louise and her tracks Naked or Let's Go Round Again and you have a wee bit of a soundtrack to my earlier years as a teenager in the 90s. I was never a fan of the grunge/Brit pop/ indie bands. Give me a bit of Spice Girls or Corona (remember her?)and I'm happy.

The Lost Boy inspired me with his post on going to a standup show and this next weekend I too am venturing to one such event. Every year Glasgow holds a festival for the fags called Glasgay! For some reason it has has to have the exclamation mark. So this comedian Jason Woods will be on it doing his show "My Anus Horibilius" Cameron's been to the comedy club before and said it was quite funny so fingers crossed we get some laughs. I went to see Aussie comic Bob Downe at a show a few years ago and he was a riot although Alan Carr as his warmup was even funnier. Whatever Happened To Bob Downe? Maybe he's drinking the booze like Bette Davis in Baby Jane?!
