Mondays...

Why are Mondays so damn depressing......they always are. To
make matters worse, this one for me is raining, and so
gloomy!

You really Really REALLY need to put on... Tori Amos "I
Don't Like Monday's" because suddenly Monday is a little
easier to take

regital starts signing, "Tell Me Why I don't like Monday's
Tell me why I don't like Mondaaayyyzzzzz I don't like. I
don't liiiiiike. I don't like Modaaaaaaaayyyeee's. I wanna
shoot, shoot the whole day down."

company and I'm going to play some Lan CS in a bit so things
aren't so bad.

*holds nose*

Hehehhehe - I think with me, its just that overriding urge
to prefer not to have to go to work, of which I have escaped
briefly for my lunch hour........

...but bills have to be paid I suppose, so I'll have to
return this afternoon! :(

You'll never guess what the tagline on it is- obviously this
type of egg have been sent to clients...

"Unit-E - all your ICT & ILT Eggs in one basket" ("Unit-e"
is our new product BTW).

The Boomtown Rats version is too happy. They are all smiling
and shit and the lyrics are about someone going into school
shooting people...

I don't know who did the song, but it was inspired by that
woman who shot up kids coming out of school whilst under the
influence of PCP. When they cuaght her and asked her why she
did it, she said "I don't like Mondays".

They've probably got people working for them who don't spend
every minute of the day posting "hilarious" comments on
messageboards.

I don't know why people think my last comment is a joke,
sadly it's not... I can't find what the band were called. I
remember reading about it in a magazine art home.

Normally my Mondays are very depressing, because I drank too
much during the weekend. But not this time, I'll be seeing
Massive Attack live in a couple of hours!

Nacmat:

Boomtown Rats - I don't like Mondays

The Boomtown Rats were at a US radio station for an
interview when the story of Brenda Spencer came over the
news wire. The 16 year old California high school student
made headlines when she grabbed her father's gun and opened
fire on her school from a house across the street, injuring
eight students and killing the school's principal and
custodian. When later asked why she'd gone on the shooting
spree, she responded "I don't like Mondays."

As a loud mid '70s rock band, the Boomtown Rats were
(respectfully if not completely accurately) branded punks by
the media. As the Sex Pistols and the Clash became the voice
of young London punks, The Boomtown Rats carried the flag
for the youth of Dublin. After their debut album saw
respectable sales in 1978, they recorded "I Don't Like
Mondays," their most successful and most enduring hit
despite the fact that many US radio stations refused to play
it.

The Boomtown Rats' popularity never rose beyond their
successes of the late '70s, and after the weak sales of
their 1982 album "V Deep" the band had reached its end.
Singer Bob Geldof embarked on a solo career, and while not
finding pop huge success he has made his mark on pop culture
by playing the lead role in Pink Floyd's The Wall. His
shining moment came in the mid '80s, co-writing Band Aid's
"Do They Know It's Christmas" with Midge Ure and putting
together the highly successful Live Aid concert.

happen again next week...
