So good it deserved its own post:

Since it been long time since I have added my 10 pence worth thought I should comment on something or anything and I thought your blogs are looking lonely with no comments. Anyways it is nearing the end of another week and the first month of 2007 has already passed, so just friendly monthly reminder that you have a wedding to go to this year and I’m thinking that it might be a good idea for you turn up (for the first time ever!) on time.

Anyways what was I thinking about at work today……………..

Oh yeah Wile. E Coyote what a hero, a champion for us the regular people if you will. I feel his pain, you know poor guy he has a goal and you know he tries his best and fails. As if failing isn’t enough punishment for the poor guy, life doesn’t just give him the proverbial kick in the teeth it pretty much goes medieval on him i.e. makes him fall off cliffs, drops anvils on his head, incinerates him, runs him over etc. well you get the point.

Warner Bros cartoons are portraying a very bad image here because you know we are always told “try your best” at school and by our parents, well no one tries harder than old Wile. E Coyote. Some of his plans are pure genius, which would be lauded even at a mensa board meeting. Yet, stupid Road Runner always gets away despite being very annoying and obviously intellectually challenged. I mean what does this all mean?? running around very fast like a headless chicken will get you far in life??? What kind of f$%ked up message is this.!!!!

I guess I can relate cause the weekends are like the part when Wile. E Coyote comes up with his plan all happy and stuff thinking this is my time, I am finally going to get that motherbleeping roadrunner this can’t possibly fail. Then Monday morning is like when he puts his plan into action and yet again fails miserably and again realises he’s been outsmarted and out manoeuvred by a nitwit yet again and he’s been hit by the swift anvil to the head routine for the umpteenth time much like the way Monday morning depression hits you. The rest of the week is much like the rest of the cartoon, more attempts rebuffed by further Anvils to head but each time it hurts less due to the fact that you’ve failed so many times that you expect it.

Is it not time to send out a better message? If this is not rectified soon I am going to America to sue Warner Bros for lost earnings due to the low self esteem I developed from watching this cartoon and thinking that the more you try the more you fail and success will never come my way.

I’m starting a “free Wile. E Coyote from his eternal torture now” demonstration march.

But this could be a some kind sub-conscious government plot to keep us all in line from the time we were children to suck the creativity out of us and make us all work finance, banking or some other boring s£$t that they need done to run the government the way they want it. I sense a script for yet another conspiracy theory TV show in the making here.

Oh dear I remember a simpler/happier time when I didn’t analyse children’s cartoons into the excuses for why I am in the predicament I am in, working credit control. Take me back to Fun Factory already.

In the eternal words of the great Homer Simpson: 'Trying is the first step to failure'
