TASKS DAY 115 / 116
OK OK, so just to catch up sp we're back on track... yesterday our task was to print out an official 'Above The Law' card which was provided in the book, attach a photo, and break a random law. We all passed, I won't tell you exactly how but it was on the LINE of breaking the law, while still being memorable. So a good day!
Todays task, we all failed, as it involved staying in your room all day, only coming out between 11 and 3 oclock. So thats a bummer! But hey, tomorrow is a new day. We are al reinvigorated and refreshed!! I shall catch up with Dave and be victorious once more!

GUITAR HERO 3
I love Guitar Hero! I mean I really think it's one of the coolest things ever. Yep it's fantastic, and I also really like the old classic song 'The Devil Went Down To Georgia'!
So I found out that the last song in the new Guitar Hero 3 game is a rock remake of that song! And you can listen to it right HERE! Can't wait to play through this!

Free Album! Plus other stuff
Okey dokey so Radiohead have a new album out, I've not really heard their stuff before too much, but it caught my eye because you can pay as much as you want for it! Go to their website www.inrainbows.com to download it, you can have it for free if you want! It's kind of chill-out rocky style stuff. Different but like it so far!
Yesterdays task was to tattoo a banana, which I did with much happiness. Thats another point for Jon!
Todays task is a bit more complicated and involves breaking a law, so not sure yet whether it's possible. We shall soon see!
Been thinking of an idea which may / may not happen, and I think it would be really cool if it did, so keep an eye out here and if anything happens I'll let you know! Oooo excitement!
Well that is all for now, can't really think of much to say. Tara then!

Black Sheep Review
So, went to see Black Sheep on Wednesday night. Thought I'd tell you what I thought of it! Please take a moment to study the picture below...
If that made you laugh, or the idea of sheep going crazy appeals to you, then you'll probably love Black Sheep! But, if you hate blood and guts, maybe you're better off watching Babe the sheep-pig.
It was great. Funny, jumpy, gory, kind of like Shaun of the Dead with sheep. There's a few gross bits and some parts were slightly on the edge but I enjoyed it. It was under 90 minutes too so didnt go on for too long which was good. Not perfect but just entertaining, so I'd give it 8 sheep out of 10

CATCH UP!! DAY 113 - 'F'
ARGHHH!!!! So yeah I missed yesterday, many apologies, but I was very busy as it was my brothers 18th BIRTHDAY!! Which was very cool, he had a new Apple Mac, which is very snazzy and looks like some kind of robot from the future, plus it takes photos with really cool special effects! So its even better than a robot.
YESTERDAYS TASK was to watch a film beginning with the letter 'F'. So we chose 'The Fellowship of the Ring' because 'the' doesnt count. Unfortunately we fell asleep during the film so have to check whether or not that counts... but it was good while it lasted!
Oh yes, I also found a fantastic example of cheesy christian rubbish while I was looking for ideas for youth next week. This is possibly one of the most laughable videos ever, and yep it was done by a church.
This video comes with a cringe-factor of 11 so watch out.
And one more thing... PULL UP THOSE PANTS!!!

Day 112 - 'TODAY TRACE YOUR ROOTS'
Well, I've been searching on ancestry websites, looking for whatever I can, and so far nothing has popped up interesting about my family. I can only get as far as my amazin grandparents before I hit a blank spot. But at least I tried so thats a point. Easy!
Although I think this person HERE may be a distant relative...

How Times Change...
Just watched a DVD of some really random videos I made for youth, 2 years ago, back when I first started a training course there called the Pioneer Project. Got me thinking on how much things can change.
When I first saw myself on the DVD I was so surprised... I mean I looked rough! Pasty, skinny, gross guy, huge fluffy hair, big bags... man alive it was weird! I was really struggling back then still with some things, and I remember being so nervous starting that course. It was a lot of fun but I was reaaally scared too! No confidence at all hardly.
And now, 2 years later, stuff is so different. I honestly can't believe I'm the same person. I was just talking to someone about it, how it's incredibly how I've transformed really. I did an assembly earlier this week in front of 500 kids, with someone who just started the training course... back then I was nervous to talk at all in front of anyone! I was nervous just being on a video camera!
But it makes me realise one important thing - - - it's not because of me that I've changed so much - well sure I had to try, I had to want to change and put the effort in, but I could NO WAY do it on my own - it's because of God. My life today is such an example of how God can use someone who no-one else would consider. I'm not trying to brag in anyway or make myself look good - I know 100% that I'm only hear because of God.
Life is exciting, I've got a great job in church, I'm doing things I could never imagine, the future looks awesome, I've got the best girlfriend in the world, so much blessings. That's what God can do in your life.
And one more thing - the person I was talking to about all this, I found a letter from them the other day that they sent 4/5 years ago, that encouraged me and helped me when I was having an especially hard time. Without that person, and a couple others, I wouldn't be here today as I am. What impact could you have on someones life just by sending a letter or encouraging them? That person forgot he'd ever sent me that letter, but now they know what an impact it had on me. It could be someone saying that to you a few years down the line.
So, times change. God is awesome. Those old videos are flippin hilarious though... Dr Dilbert Vicrum! Genius

DAY 111 - 'TREAT THEM MEAN, KEEP THEM KEEN' DAY
Today, test the above relationship advice on your better half. Instructions in the book included stuff like 'Tell them you'll call and don't / Turn up half an hour late to meet / When they say 'I love you' just say thanks. '
I felt way too harsh to do this task, not to my incredible lady! Luckily the other lads agreed to fail this task too. That's another £3 quid in the pot! Man alive I've failed 3 tasks in like a week... need to pick up the pace!
GRAND PRIZE TOTAL SO FAR........ £111!!!! Hmm, and on day 111 too... coincidence? Or government conspiracy? I think we'd better watch our backs......

Hmmm
Just thinking, you know what might be fun? Doing mini film reviews on this little blog. I'm going to see Black Sheep tomorrow night with my amazing lady so maybe I'll do that thing! just a thought. Yep.
Ohhh yes here's a site I think you should check out! www.oddee.com
Got some great random bits on there! Check out the worlds most bizarre statues or
the papercut sculptures for starters!
Mooohahaha I'm going to be in TRANSYLVANIA - - - - over HALLOWEEN!! I think that's actually the coolest thing ever. We're staying up in some remote place in the mountains too. Someone suggested going getting a garlic injection into my blood before I leave... might be a good idea. Woo should be fun!
