This Halloween, Oyster Boy decided to go as a human.
Tim Burton

Anyone who wants to read Tim Burton's book of short stories: The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy and other stories, can borrow it from me. But please do not be like some who borrow it and never return for months. Its a short, quirky book full of black humour; making it highly unsuitable for church book review segments and recommendations to primary school students.

You know you are getting old...

....When your brother has a blog and is posting stuff that only really young people would post. Its rather hilarious really. U almost don't believe that you were that age once. And you definitely don't believe that you were like that before. Everyone wants to think they become mature and cultivate a unique/ different personality. But actually all we do is grow old.

On a separate note, the song of the month is taken from the movie Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and goes like this: Dolphins having tried but failed to alert Earthlings of the impending destruction of our planet & have now left the planet. As a farewell, they sing the song: Farewell, and thanks for all the fish.

So long and thanks for all the fish
So sad that it should come to this
We tried to warn you all but oh dear?

You may not share our intellect
Which might explain your disrespect
For all the natural wonders that
grow around you

So long, so long and thanks
for all the fish

The world's about to be destroyed
There's no point getting all annoyed
Lie back and let the planet dissolve

Despite those nets of tuna fleets
We thought that most of you were sweet
Especially tiny tots and your
pregnant women

So long, so long, so long, so long, so long
So long, so long, so long, so long, so long

So long, so long and thanks
for all the fish

There is a bridge which wasnt included but it goes something like this:
If i could have one last wish, i would want a tasty fish,
If we all could change one thing, we would all have lungs to sing!

Dont ask me to sing the song to you. It would seriously be worse than the dolphins.
