Ok, well the idea is I hit shuffle on my iTunes library, pick the first 20 tunes that appear, write down a line (that doesn't include the title) from it, and you lot guess wot the song is...WITHOUT using Google cause that's just no fun now is it =P
When a correct guess is made i'll put a strike through the line and list the song title below it. Simple enuff?
So are you sitting comfortably? ...well tuff, we're starting anyway =P
...remember now...no cheating! *clears throat and begins to sing...*

Ok, so two incredibly stupid idiots making mean prank calls out've a couple'a hundred fantastically nice and genuinely concerned and helpful people isn't bad, is it?
But, just incase I didnt emphasise enuff, just how incredibly stupid these two callers really were...here are their telephone numbers complete with international dialing code:
+447757804374 - seemed to be a couple of silly bitches that phoned, not once, but around 5 or 6 times over the space of two days, and
+447736648832 - some dumbass drunk guy telling us he had our cat in his microwave. Nice.
Yes folks, thats right, they were sooooo incredibly stupid, that they didnt even withold their telephone number when they decided to harass me. Infact, sooooo incredibly stupid that I decided the world should be able to tell them just how dumb and heartless they really are. Please feel free.
My word for today said: "Impossible? Not with God. Humanly speaking, many situations are hopeless but with God all things are possible."
I haven't been posting lately, and I'm sorry.
At the beginning of December, my cat Sylvestor got spooked by a dog and managed to escape as she was going into the vets on the Lisburn road, the other side of Belfast miles from home. Less than a week later my 16 year old dog Sam passed away.
Now i know this may seem trivial to a whole lot of people. But to me, these arn't just pets, they're part of my family.
We're still looking for Syl. Posters and flyers have gone out. The local newspaper even picked it up as a story just before Christmas.
There've been a few sightings here and there, but they always seem to come too late. Like someone see's her at around 4pm, but waits untill after 7 to call. *sigh* by then she's long gone.
Now, it's not that I don't appreciate them taking the time to call. I do. I really do.
Infact, it's really opened up my eyes to how many people actually give a rats ass, and it continues to surprise me just how kind people can really be.
I mean, with all the picking and fighting over such stupid issues over here - lose a family pet and everyone regardless of race, age, colour or religion rallys round to help. It's fantastic. People are wonderful. I don't even think any of them realise just how much it means to me that they've bothered to take the time to call...even if it's just to ask if we've found her yet. Everyone's been great and I truly appreciate it.
Anyways, I know it's been nearly a month, but to God that is nothing. We keep looking for her, not by sight, but by faith.
I want her home. I miss her. Please, please pray we get her home and that she's safe in the meantime. Thank you.
