Things I like - No.4!

The Mini!


I love them! Living in the big schmoke, not having kids and generally not having a lot of stuff to lug around with me, I find driving my mini fantastic - parking is a joy, I fill it up for 35 quid and it runs for 2 weeks! Yep - the Mini is the perfect car for me.
Also - chicks dig you in a mini.
Remember when you were on the dodgems as a young 'un? and you said to yourself, "this is great, I wish i could take this out on the road!"
Well, basically that is what you're doing with a mini.
I love them!

5 of my favorite things


1 - The bad guy.

When done properly, a bad guy can not only be cooler than the hero, but will stay with you a lot longer, take for instance the Texas chainsaw massacre, not only do you think Leatherface is the most savage bad guy around, you actually sometimes feel a little sorry for the guy.

However, when done badly, ie: Spiderman 2 - Dr. Octopus, you simply cannot wait for the hero to dispose of the jerk.

Here's an example of a few bad guys who rock,

Darth Vader
Jason Vorhees and Michael Myers
Lex Luther
Freddy
Robert De Niro - in heat

See?

Bad Guys - no.5 on my list of my favorite things!
