Taipei Monkey
IconBuffet have released two more icon sets in their Free Delivery service.
I received the 'Farewell Snow' set and I am now in search of the 'Taipei Monkey' set.
If you have the monkey set I can trade you any of the other ones for it, send an email to rowans -at- gmail dot com.

In Monkey News Ricky Gervais meets Larry David tonight!!! It's a shame (or is it?) that I don't live in the UK because it's only on Channel 4. Maybe C4 in New Zealand will repeat it sometime soon!

Image Thank goodness Christmas is finally over. Even though you get some totally wicked awesome cool stuff you sometimes tend to forget about your favourite Jewish rappers who traditionally don't celebrate Xmas. I'm talking about artists such as Princess Superstar, The Beasties Boys and MC Paul Barman. But then again they have holidays such as Chanukah where there is eight days of celebrations and gifts. So yeah ... point established.

Back to Xmas for a second, perhaps the most interesting thing I got was some Sea Monkeys. Not only do these Monkeys live for two years but they change colour (white, yellow, orange and red). Conveniently the pack includes a key ring aquarium so I can take them on walks and to work etc.
Long live these freaks of nature.

Kool Keith Aliens
Mr Nogatco is now scheduled for first quarter 2006, sure it's late but at least they are talking about it and not letting it dissapear into the void of internet rumours.
Insomniac has this to say:
"The quality control department at Insomniac have a few surprises for the Kool Keith fans, which pushed the release date to the first quarter of 2006."
So perhaps the surprise it that it is going to be released?
Ohh yeah in more Kool Keith releated business, 'Kool Keith' added me to his myspace friend list, ch ch ch check it out at http://www.myspace.com/row187
Merry Xmas sards,

Mr McGee... don't make me angry... you wouldn't like me when I'm angry..
Angry Mike
Angry Mike in Full Effect.
If you haven't already checked out the Ricky Gervais podcasts you betterget on to it. So far there are three 30 minute episodes. More info at Ricky's site and check out his Q&A blog.
Speaking of audio text the other week I listened to Bruce Campbell's audio book Make Love the Bruce Campbell Way. It's quite an intersting listen, Bruce is known for being a great voice actor so there is never a dull moment. Worth a listen if you can track it down in audio or text form.
Speaking of Bruce Campbell, last month I finished reading his first book 'If Chins Could Kill - Confessions of a "B" Movie Actor'. It's a great book to read before bed, jokes, trivia, plenty of pictures and nice short chapters :D , it is definitely not undelicious.
Over the last month I've got heaps of new CD's which I'm looking forward to reviewing using Simple Review, some of the new CD's:
  • Public Enemy - Greatest Misses
  • AZ - AWOL
  • Blackalicious - The Craft
  • Kool Keith & H-Bomb - 7th Veil EP
  • Murs - 3:16 the 9th edition
  • Princess Superstar - Last Of The Great 20th Century Composers
  • Princess Superstar - My Machine
  • Talib Kweli - Right About Now (The Official Sucka Free Mix CD)
wicked.
For the real deal here and here.
Yours in digital publications,
