The Classic Game of Quick Draw
Remember all those Christmas's and parties when you've been coerced into playing various games - Jenga, Scrabble, Find the Sausage... well now, even if you have no friends, you can play iSketch online with billions (ok, dozens) of other people. This Pictionary style game is really rather enjoyable and addictive - it just takes a little getting used to.

Lenore - The Cute Little Dead Girl
Spiders! Eww! Gross! *shrill scream and lifts skirt hem* They deserve everything that's coming to them...
Epidsode 17 - Insurrection of Insects

Mazda Transformer
I want the new Mazda RX-8 - it seems to have cool Transormers capabilities.

Friday - Gameday
Ok, this isn't the most addictive net game in the world, but it does have one of the best names around: Go Goat Go! (Ta, Dan)

New Old Who
Someone's just found an old episode of Dr. Who that's never been aired.
It's got William Hartnell, wheelie bins with sink-plungers and everything

Awwwwww, look at the baby freak
Baby cyclops goat.
'nuff said.

Lenore - The Cute Little Dead Girl
I'm sorry but they seem to be getting even wronger...

Read My Boobs!
It's not quite prostitution even though she's taking money for it, it's not pornographic since the definition of that is 'designed to arouse lust' and this certainly doesn't (in me anyway) so what exactly is Read My Boobs other than exactly what it says - a (NSFW) site where you pay a girl to write on her boobs and take a photo of it which she posts on her site. Wonder if this could be a whole new money-making feature of pri.me.uk - anyone want to see me naked (not really advisable to be honest - I'm past my prime!)

American Patriotic Goth Angel (probably Christian) Paint Shopper In Your Pocket
Well - I wondered what else you could fit in your pocket other than Mr. T, some loose change, the odd hanky and some fluff. I found this site. I found it strangely sad yet entertaining in a 'let's poke fun at the sad goth patriotic American maybe Christian' kind of way.

Mr. T In Your Pocket
I want a Mr. T In Your Pocket.
I pity the foo'.

Lenore - The Cute Little Dead Girl
Now this episode is just plain wrong... talk about playing your heart strings - this one shoves your heart strings through a Korg distortion unit and turns it up to eleven! Ch-koooowwwwwwnnnnn!!!!
Episode 15 - The Fugly Duckling

Doggles - Goggles for Dogs
Doggles are ssunglasses for your pet - website comes complete with Best...Picture...Ever.

Monkey Cowboy tribute to Johnny Cash
Regular readers will know of my fondness for the late, great Johnny Cash - I've just been sent the oddest tribute to him I've seen yet. It's a strangely touching animation set to his cover of the Eagles' classic 'desperado'. Enjoy.

More naked people on eBay
As part of our ongoing series of naked people on eBay, today I'm pleased to bring you eBay item 3168118496 a Hokey Pokey Elmo being held by a topless woman. Class!

Lenore - The Cute Little Dead Girl
Sadly we are now over half way through our little library of lovely Lenore - so are we now half full or half empty?
Episode 14 - Hairball

Diamonds are forever
It is sad that at some point, all of our lives will be marked by the infinite sadness that is bereveament. There are many ways to remember the ones you love, be it a souvenir of a happy time together, a photograph or even a tattoo. However - there is one way that their memory may live on indefinitely, for many future generations to enjoy: if you have up to £12,000 just kicking around underneath you mattress at home then why not turn your memory... and the departed's ashes into one of these exquisite diamonds.

My disk's bigger than yours
If you like playing 'mine's bigger than your's' then you'll like Lacie's new 1 Terabyte hard drive that fits inside a 5.25" bay. Just to give you an idea of size they claim that would be sufficient to play 2yrs of continuous music from the drive without repeating any tracks (although this would depend greatly on the format and quality of the tracks obviously). Very cool.

US airforce drops 'practice' bomb on Yorkshire
Luckily I'm just outside of the strike zone so I missed out on being destroyed by the 'extremely rare occurence' that was a 'practice' bomb that was accidentally dropped on Yorkshire last week.

Mary Beth Decker, Stripping with Flash
Let's start my return with a NSFW link coutesy of bunny girl Mary Beth Decker who's made these interactive stripping animations.

Lenore - The Cute Little Dead Girl
Welcome back J.C. - nice to have you around again. However - if you think this means I'm going to back out gracefully and leave you to it, you've got another thing coming - I've taken my boots off and I've got my feet up by the GromBlog fire ;) And now.... (drum roll)...
Episode 13 The Day Mr Chippy Walked

Site update
Back at work after my 4 weeks paternity leave - Many thanks to Solomon and PopCorn for covering in my absence. One thing to mention is that I noticed quite a few new subsribers to our 'gromblog by email' daily service (subscribe in the right hand of this screen) but for some reason the service managed to switch itself off over Xmas as it does occasionally. I've switched it back on now so mails will start to be sent out again tonight with all the previous day's posts.
We'll be redesigning the site sometime in the next few months and giving it a much-needed facelift as well as finally sorting out the awful comments feature once and for all. Any ideas or suggestions are, as always, much appreciated.
