my brother joshua

whilst The Smashing Pumpkins song 'Disarm' was playing on the radio i asked him whether he knew what band was playing. this was his response...

"Don't tell me!
It's a vegetable!
A pea!
A pumpkin!
A something pumpkin.
Smashing Pumpkins!"

excellent example of the connections in a person's semantic network.

so far....

...it appears this blog is a failure. second post this year. anyway here it goes....

the quote below is taken from an episode of Daria. one of the most valuable skills i've learnt whilst at uni.

Mr. DeMartino: Well, students, I certainly appreciate your helping me clean up the classroom for the summer. It almost makes me forget that most of you didn't learn a thing all year!!
Daria: That's not true--I learned to sleep sitting up.
