So here's what's going on at the moment:
Currently in Denmark, just outside of Copenhagen.
Taking a quick trip to Sweden on Monday to spend a few days in Stockholm.

Today
Bill and I were discussing the shitness of the early Potter movies as compared to the awesomeness of the most recent ones. We decided we’re going to do a remake of the first one. The casting goes thusly:

State Countin' 8
Fifteen states left. Come the fuck on, America.
I have Google Analytics for this blog, and it tells me where my visitors have come from. Most of mine are from England (me being English and all that), but I also have a few from all over the world, including the USA.
