Maybe this explains why the intelligence services are quite as crappy at their job as they are - they're all paranoid. And you'd kind of hope they'd manage to weed-out terrorist sympathisers during the recruitment process, wouldn't you?

Finally, Wolverine doesn't seem quite so silly: "The technique, called Intraosseous Transcutaneous Amputation Prosthesis (ITAP), involves securing a titanium rod directly into the bone." Now, replace titanium with adamantium, and we're there.

Did I ever mention how much classical music can annoy me? Not all classical music, of course, but I spent many an interminable Sunday afternoon being forced to listen to Elgar pulsing through my house (thanks, Dad). Worse still, though, was trying to sleep this past Sunday night as my neighbour decided to treat her houseguests to an al fresco concert. At 2.30 in the fucking morning. Not amused. Especially as she was way too heavy on the vibratto...

Still, mustn't grumble - the weather's good; there's a guest coming for the weekend and Pirates! Cybermen! World Cup!

Hell, I never use exclamation marks - I feel dirty.
