Sorry, but I couldn't resist. One for cognoscenti. Who can resist "the master butcher of Leigh on Sea"? Don't google that, it makes it too easy. And I see welcome homage to Pump: Young Lust and especially F.I.N.E.:
'Cause I'm

Your momma says I'm

Your daddy says I'm

Note…
Some of you may know that a publisher contacted me last year about turning a piece of short fiction I'd written from an adult perspective into a young adult novel. There are several reasons I wanted to do this - the first is that in many ways, the young adult fiction market is much more vital than…
Alright, I know that, after yesterday's epic post (which was long even by Orac-ian standards), I said that I was going to try to get away from vaccine blogging for a while. I lied. Well, not really. At that time I really did mean it. But then I came across something that I just couldn't leave alone…
"DAAAAADDDDDYYYYY!!!!"
"What's the matter, honey?"
"I don't like being alone."
"Well, I'm sorry, honey, but I have work to do, and it's time for you to go to sleep."
"But when I'm alone I get scared."

Not Googled - always rather liked Carter USM - saw them only once, shortly after 101 Damnations was released. They were very good. Tight.
Lord, I thought I was the only one who remembered Carter! Also only saw them once, but rather later - in '95 (Worry Bomb era - still my fave album tbh). When 101 came out I was still of an age to be reading Smash Hits...;)

Behind William van what's-his-face
Six foot six and a hundred tons
The undisputed king of the slums
More aliases than Klaus Barbie
The master butcher from Leigh on Sea
In a hatchback fron Notre Dam
The one and only Sheriff Fatman!
I saw Carter USM a few times, they were always great live. 30 Something was probably my favourite album.
Now how about the Sultans of Ping FC...
Oops, Nicholas van Wotsitsface of course
A note on Nicholas van Wotsisface for puzzled non-UK readers. A lovely fella.

Why isn't he in the klink?
[Spammed -W]
Was Nicholas van W ever parodied by Monty Python, a la the Kray twins? It seems an obvious thing to do.
And everyone should read Atmospheric Physicist's post. Wonderful stuff indeed. I'll give you "the force field acting on molecules in flight" as a teaser.
"Dinsdale...?"
Raymond Arritt, "Atmospheric Physicist" is likely Doug Cotton. He regularly goes around a few blogs and spams his claims that the greenhouse effect violates the 2nd law of thermodynamics.
