Hands that do dishes

Last year, just before Christmas, I purchased three bottles of Fairy washing-up liquid. Today, the first of them ran out. Looks like it really does last longer.

But after that, inspired by raphx's recent post about the classic Dieter Bohlen music videos that he has been busily uploading to YouTube, I went in search of other ridiculous 80s music, and wasn't disappointed. The highlight is a ludicrously over-the-top mimed video of Helloween's Dr. Stein, which is... how can I put this... unequivocally hilarious (especially Kai Hansen on the right with his daft sunglasses).

Apparently Chris regularly wins vast amounts of money from poker sites, making him worthy of being the focus of a morning news special. I'm not sure whether to be proud for the ex-Melvillites or still detest them because of having regularly woken me up by battering golf balls against the door to my section of the corridor during their stay there.

I realize that three posts in a day constitutes a veritable avalanche compared to my usual record, but does anyone have any recommendations for programs to create ISOs/other CD images? I have a pile of them beside me that I want to, er, back up. I know that the Internet's flooded with them, but I'd like to hear of any that you can recommend as working.

Speaking of burning, it's the hottest weather ever here - I think it might even compare to the heatwave that we experienced in Donington three summers ago. I'm off to fill the bath with ice cubes.
