Advantages: Ahhh, I'm a soppy old git Disadvantages: I mean, cough, I am a tough gruff man. See me roar. ROAR!
Hello, Fat Tony here, your friendly neighborhood gangster man. Yesterday, after a hard day of busting caps and boxing beats, I saw that a good friend of mine was feeling down. She's had a bad weekend. She's been incredible to me over the past few months, and wrote a very lovely poem for me which can be found at my MySpace.
After chatting to her for a while, I decided it'd be nice if I wrote a poem to show how much I love her as a friend, and how much I appreciate her. So, I came up with this. It's entitled simply, "A Poem".
Please bear in mind it's my first ever poem.... I'm more of a "There was a young blank from blank" guy, so... be nice ;-)

A POEM
I wanted to write a poem, write a poem just for you
For blue you seem to be and all you seem to be is blue
But poems aren't my strength, they aren't my strength ...

Advantages: 3 great films for a budget price Disadvantages: Picture quality not too good
The films on the 3 discs are a selection of Roger Corman productions between 1960 and 1963.
Little Shop Of Horrors from 1960 is first up.A young Jack Nicholson makes an early screen appearence.
A dimwitted florists assistant discovers a mutant plant that can talk and must feed on blood to survive.
The Terror from 1963 stars Boris Karloff and Jack Nicholson (again).Nicholson follows an apparition to a castle where he finds Karloff and discovers he is an imposter.
Also from 1963,Dementia 13 marks the directorial debut of Francis Ford Coppola.Family member are being bumped off by an axe murderer.Are the murders linked to the daughters death years ago?
The three films are all entertaining and the packaging is nice but it would have been better if the films remastered.Overall though its good value for money. ...

My PC is fab,
It's browser supports tab,
It's clock speed is fast,
And virus scan's it's passed.
It's RAM is plenty,
It's HD is 10*20,
It runs SP2,
And all this is true!
~These poems~
These poems are bad,
But at least I tried a bit,
Please me merciful! ...

Roger McGough is one of Britain's best loved poets and this collection 'charts [his] passage from youthful exuberance to the wry reflection of his later years. What remains the same throughout the 40 years is the poet's winning wit accessibility and abiding readability' Independent ---------------------------------- 'Time has confirmed ... that McGough's talent was much more substantial than many of his long-forgotten detractors suspected. If he was a pop poet it was not in any ephemeral sense. A shy extrovert ... he has given voice to poetry and found a voice of his own which is humourful introspective irreverent easy on the ear conversational. It is also memorable and enduring and fresh. Age has not withered [his lines] nor diminished their potency. Of how much modern poetry can you say that?' Sunday Herald
