Twilight

So, on a lighter note than some of my last posts, I'm reading the Twilight Series at the moment.

Since I have some time on my hands and am reluctant to start the Steven Erikkson series (which is a tough read) yet I had to find something else to read. My sister had the Twilight series and since I quite like sci-fi, vampire/werewolf and lots of other types of lore I thought I would give it a go. I'm in my second week and on my third book! See, lot's of time on my hands...lol.

I had seen the first 2 films and the books are almost identical....it's unusual for these kinds of films to be kept true to the book (Harry Potter is a perfect example / Eragon too!) but as I recently found out, Stephanie Meyer has kept the rights to the adaptation of her books so I now understand why the films are identical. Very wise of Meyer to do this. If I wrote a book and a Director massacred my story I would be mad!

Anyway, I am on the 3rd book, Eclipse, and I actually quite like the story, probably because I am quite invested with the characters now, but I do enjoy it. The lead character Bella is really annoying but I am over that now. I will write more once I have finished all 4 books but for the moment I would recommend these books...not to everyone!...but definitely to women/girls who like fantasy and lore....gets you away from the real world for a while!

Here's a reason to watch the films ;)

Gerry Adam's search for Jesus!

I said I would write about the Robinson Scandal and how I did enjoy that...but writing about it has taken a backseat. I am so disgusted with the Sinn Fein Scandal that I need to write about it before I lose my mind!

So when I heard that Gerry Adams was going to be on a Channel 4 series looking at the Bible and the search for Jesus/God I was absolutely horrified!

Why would Channel 4 chose such an abhorrent creature to talk about faith and the word of God, because lets face it...he himself has never followed any of the scriptures/teachings or even morals and values that the Bible states. I'm no God bothering bible basher but I have serious morals and values that would make my skin crawl just looking at this man and his "brethren".


Thou shalt not kill/murder! Don't think he remembered that one! Let's add another one shall we?

Thou shalt not cover up sexual and physical abuse!

So, my blood is now boiling! I sent a complaint to C4 to say that it is appalling that they would air this man's views on the Bible. Yes, he spouts his religious nonsense on a regular basis and heads up to Clonard every week (I'm surprised he isn't struck down as he crosses the threshold!) but this has gone too far! Where are the sensible people of the world saying "This Man shouldn't be allowed to get away with this!" "Step Down from Public life", etc etc....the Robinson's have done very little in comparison to what this man has covered up! Lies and Deception are his skills but we don't have to put up with it!

I will let you know if I get a response from Channel 4 but doubt anything would ever be done! To believe this man gets paid for this sacrilege!

Party Membership Regulations by SF

So they don't want peadophiles as members of Sinn Fein!....yet baby killers, murderers, bombers, gun runners, racketeers and all other sorts of scum are widely accepted!

Can someone tell me why this is totally ridiculous to me?!

Can someone tell me why the people of Northern Ireland let these scum bags run the country?

I am baffled beyond words!

Is there help for NI out there anywhere?

Can there be some sort of alternative political situation where we are not dealing with this anymore?

Superman...where are you to save us?

Marie's Birthday and Sherlock Holmes

Today was my sister's birthday. Luckily i am back to normal again after being sick so was able to venture out into the world after my hermiting!

We got up late-ish and went out to see the new Sherlock Holmes film. To be honest I was slightly disappointed! Gritty look but not overly gritty content. Humourous but not funny enough. Good chemistry between Downey and Law but Downey is much better suited to the Stark character in Iron Man. Maybe I was expecting too much! The story was a bit weak but very Holmes-esque. Can't say I was really impressed. It wasn't a waste of my VIP money (because I got free tea and a lazeeboy) but still wasn't exactly great!

See it for yourselves to judge but i'm only giving it 7 out of 10.

Sickness and Snow

So, you know I was in Vegas with my Sis who was sick the whole time but I escaped getting the cold at all even though I was with her all the time! Well, as soon as I came back I got sick in the New Year! I have spent the first week of the New Year in my house....kind of a good thing with the weather being as bad as it was! There was no way I was setting foot outside the door so I took some photos from my bedroom window (above). I love the snow but there was no way I was heading out it in to get sicker.

Anywho, just thought I would stick the photos up.
