- Did not properly draft new blog post in all of the whole of yesterday; so must draft new bit for this week's show about internet failure and attractive Amazons in coffee shops that long-term listeners will, of course, be convinced is a total, total lie.
- Must also actually come up with new topic for blog post before losing the attention of all those new readers I picked up by being not only cheeky but relevant.
- Oh God, I am 31 tomorrow. No fountain of youth available; instead must find Alyssa and dose myself into a sugar coma.

( 'Radio ... You mean ze thing zhat comes out of ze internet?' (Zaza) )
He sure does.

- Show is posted, blog post is up, count down to flame war in 5 ... 4 ... 3 ...
- Don't think I am ever going to really get that hat back.
- You know, I think I'm OK with that.

( 'I'm going to do that opposite of punching thing now.' (Alyssa) )
No complaints here.

This post is really in answer to a lot of the response that we've been getting you know ... from the show, from the listeners. No funny lavender soup or sock stories in this entry, I'm afraid. No, I've got to deal with something a bit heavier and that is the mutant issue.

- Poor kid. Really shaken up. If I weren't broke I'd buy her more flowers. Never saw a girl light up like that. Too bad about the whole needing groceries thing.
- But she's got a point. Why the bloody fuck Los Gatos?
- Publish the MRA? Cut funding to govenrment mutant programs? Kill the mutant scum rah rah rah? New York all over. Obviously I was pushing at the mutant angle but that's just because of Beaubier...

Pigwit is SO NICE.

- Definitely need to follow up with everything I can get on Titan. As many ex-professions as I can get. The list is already wild.
- Definitely cute kid. Still don't have my hat back. Obviously need to be more charming. Probably need to make contact with a florist. Since you know, this way I can either reacquire hat or... er.
- What was I writing about? I forget. Also obviously, no career as a cinematic critic.

Showtime!

- Cute kid. Took my hat. It was a good hat. But all's well as ends well, right?
- Must write down questions. See how many stories I can pull out of her. Potential gold mine in braids. Natural start-off point is Beaubier, but already got half a poker deck of weird...
- Totally flirting with me. Excellent.

( 'I'm always game.' (Alyssa) )
Aly steals hats.

Pigwit's notes

- Comedic bit on humiliating oneself in public. Include death by chicken wings!
- Maybe fodder re: ridiculous saloon.
- Titan -- no college degree necessary? Really? Fuck me, that's odd.
- France??
- Snogged Percy's redhead. I fucking win.

Pigwit OUT ON THE TOWN.

- New tie for interview.
- New CDs for research on music purposes.
- New information: not so endlessly isolated and mysterious as all that, then. Nice guy, the boyfriend. Bit squirrelly though, had to back off. Still...
- Appropriate silly towel bit for next week's show.

( 'I can't blame you for being a fan.' (Brent) )
Who could?

- Decent coffee shop, crowd both young and lively -- living vicariously or extending my youth as long as possible?
- Cute redhead. Talhurst, you old dog. I don't believe it for a moment. What were you doing, biding?
- Totally and completely ridiculous.
- Ex-cop, ex-bodyguard, ex-professional ski champion, ex-MI6 language specialist, Percival. . . ?

That's his name.
