The drug addict (artist you say?) checked into rehab after having a seizure and realizing taking drugs and drinken and cancelling every other concert really makes you a bad person. Less than 48 hours later she checked out though, got on a helicopter and flew to London for a brain scan. Doctors told the most reliable newspaper in the world that they advised her to have a brain scan because she could suffer from epilepsy. What. The. Duce. If I take a cocktail of all the good stuff mentioned earlier I'm gonna have epilepsy to. Twice. Oh well, knowing Amy Winehouse she'll step out of the brain scan machine halfway. Singing that one song. I might just be on horse tranquillers right now for all that you know. Copying this news from The Sun (the most relia... whatever). I hate Amy Winehouse.
Just when you think the internets has shown you all possible gore, sex, injuries and what not, it keeps on amazing. This video shows skateboarder Jake Brown fall about 50 feet at the recent X-Games. The awesome: he walks away.
At a stunning 17,000 words the iPhone (costing a mere $599 dollar) comes with a free book. Too bad it's not the latest Harry Potter but just the terms-of-service crap nobody reads. According to experts (probably the same nerds that counted all those words) it's one of the longest and most complex to ever accompany a wireless gadget. The damn thing consists of six different parts regarding AT&T's phone service, the iPhone and iTunes software, the use of Google Maps and YouTube in addition to a user's consent that an e-mail from Apple "will satisfy any legal communication requirements". So when you come knockin' on AT&T's/Apple's door asking for help because your iPhone stopped working, the guy with the 'Ask Me'-button will gladly tell you that the contract in chapter 253, section 5.2, line 23 clearly states "We do not help you with anything." Followed by an "All the reasons to fucking hate Apple" chapter.
Saturday Night Live clip from Christmas, 2006 but I saw it today for the very first time. Who cares? English readers should be able to go to the English-only part of Logfather.com now. It's a start.

Anyway, with Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix in theaters the only thing really interesting is the new book. It's called Deathly Hallows and Ron Weasley (Wemel in Dutch) dies, his brother Percy Weasley dies, Remus Lupin (Lupos) dies, Severus Snape (Sneep) dies and Voldemort dies. Atleast that's what they say on this page. So if I understand this correctly: people read a series of seven (!) books and watched seven (!) movies to find out every single person in the universe dies. Except for Harry Potter. In short: the book will be released in a week or so, but you can find it everywhere on the internet. Duh.
Door Logfather | Wednesday 18 July 2007 om 17:56 | 0 reacties It's summer somewhere on this planet (no, not here, we've had nothing but storm!) and I figured I should get back to blogging in English. Once in a while, when I feel like it. And the best way to revive that English blogging would be English humor, right? So here we go. My friend Saffyre (does it sound like a real name to you?) keeps sending me these e-mails and text messages so I figured I should share them with you. Don't open when you're mom is looking though. Better: don't be on this website at all with your mom around! She won't understand, trust me...

I was starting to wonder what had happened to England's most famous export product: Page 3 girl Keeley Hazell. Well, she was obviously incredibly busy... Making a sextape! Good news for us: some hero stole it and uploaded it to the internets! And don't tell me it's a hoax, she confirmed that a sextape was stolen from her, to The Sun. And that paper is always right.

Playing the ball around and around, no action. No, with this Dutch team we're not going to win anything. Way more fun was the vibe in the English part of the stadium. The whole north side of the Amsterdam ArenA was filled with lions. Them islanders are obviously still dealing with the hooligan era though: they brought their own Bobby's into the stadium and people from The Football Association with pictures of every single English fan coming to the game. In short: the English are my all-time favorite fans now.
Very cute people really, like a mix between Lord of the Ring's hobbits and Vikings. And yes, that's positive. Some are really big and muscular, others barely come up to my waist, red hair all over. All have a beer belly and deep voice which makes them roar really well. You don't want to know how cool it was to see all English stand up and shout: "Roonah! Roonah!" after the first goal. Magical.
Our supporters are pretty lame in comparison, we're not that outgoing I guess. There wasn't much to cheer for anyway last night, the game was a big waste of time. In the end Rafael van der Vaart (Dutch forward) did score one so we tied in the closing moments of the game. 1-1.
