Celebrity Big Brother

The producers of Celebrity Big Brother are planning some general knowledge quizzes to see how much two housemates, with the "least intelligence", actually know. These two housemates are Jade Goody and Danielle Lloyd.

Now I like Jade Goody. She might not be the most intelligent in the world, but I like her and I'm glad that she's in the Big Brother house again.

I haven't liked Danielle Lloyd from day one. This is Celebrity Big Brother and you can hardly call her that. Just because she had her Miss GB taken from her and she's the girlfriend of some footballer, doesn't make her a celebrity. She'd be more suited to the normal Big Brother.

Out of the two though, I'd guess that Jade would be the least intelligent. But that maybe because I've seen alot more of her than I have of Danielle.

Here is a few of the funny qoutes from the both of them:

Jade: "Ian from H" (H being Ian's nickname when he was in the band Steps)

Jade: "I'm the 25th most influ-inflin-inf influential person in the world. I don't even know what the word means."

Danielle: "Wasn't he the first black President of America? There's a statue of him near me - that's black." (In Test The Nation TV quiz, she was asked if Winston Churchill was a rapper, a US President, a Prime Minister or a king)

Danielle has said Essex is in London, confused Leo Sayer with Willy Wonka and put her birthday on her application form as December 17, 2006.

About Donny Tourette. I was just starting to like him before he vaulted the wall of the Big Brother garden and left the house. I really hated him at first, but then, when he wasn't drunk, he was actually all-right. The only bad thing about Jade and her family coming into the house was the servents thing. Donny left because he refused to act as a servant to the Goodys. I think that the task is good, but he would probably still be there if the task hadn't happened.

Angel Sanctuary Wallpaper

There are some talented people on the net with graphics! I found this really nice Angel Sanctuary wallpaper for my desktop: http://www.banime.com/wallpapers/Angel-Sanctuary/wallpaper40/

I'd like to do nice graphic things like that, it's a pity there isn't that many Paint Shop Pro tutorials on the net that cover things like wallpapers, avatars, signatures etc.

I've seen an advert on the TV twice now for an Anime magazine called Manga (???) Yes it's that company that has things to do with Anime...yet calls themselves Manga :P As usual with magazines the first issue is quite cheap at £2.99. However after that they are charging £8.99! There's no way I'm gonna pay that much every two weeks. I think you get an anime DVD with each issue... but it's not like you have a choice which one you get and they could be really bad ones after a few issues.

Would be nice if there was another magazine out sometime that wasn't daylight robbery in it's price.

Manga - Demon Diary Volume 2

Yesterday I finished reading the second volume of the Manga Demon Diary. I read it all at once actually, just couldn't put it down, I really enjoyed it. I found out in the beginning of the book that a different author had taken over from the author of Volume 1 because they couldn't continue any longer. This worried me a little at first. The first volume was really great, so I hoped that Volume 2 would be, with a different author. And it definitely was!

Here is a description of the story of Demon Diary (from Volume 2):

"Raenef is the black sheep of the demon court, with minimal knowledge of magic and courtly etiquette. In order to help him claim his birthright as a demon lord, the Gods send him to the wise and noble demon teacher Eclipse to be his tutor. As Raenef and Eclipse begin their journey of discovery, they find that the bonds of friendship are stronger than the teacher/student relationship."

As with Volume 1, volume 2 had quite a few comedy moments. The story can at one moment be really quite serious and the next really funny. The story blends really well from one to the other when this happens.

I'm looking forward to Volume 3 very much ^^
