Treated Neil and Kate and myself to a strange array of exotic (and one common) fruit. I had only ever had two of the plate before, those being the housewife's choice honeydew mellon and the hit-and-miss physalis, wrapped in its own paper. Taking centre stage were the passion fruit, dragon fruit and papaya, I will review each thusly...
The Papaya tastes like an under-ripe cantaloupe and is hard to peel.
Passionfruit has about 1 grapes worth of edible matter in each fruit, and feels and tastes like large tomato seeds, if a little sweeter and citric.
Don't even bother with dragonfruit, it's like a less tart kiwi, although it is quite easy to eat with a spoon unlike the logic puzzle that is the halved kiwi.
In conclusion to the question I should have posed at the beginning of this blog; which fruit is the stupidest: the winner is...
The papaya; because while the passion fruit is lame, the papaya is a less nice version of a not so special fruit to begin with.
The end.

Cardboard CupArt
Matt drew me a little Godzilla frame on a paper coffee cup during a composition lecture. How smart is that? I might start marketing this little objeda and make some serious pence. Wisely enough he kept the margin of the image quite printer-friendly and tried (without success) to make the cup a three-frame comic. He failed due to lack of space but there are other issues at play here, namely that comics exist in a specific time frame and the orbitic path of a cup is eternal. That is unless you diagonalise the cells and have a long comic or simply find content that can exist in perpetuation.

Profound.
If you always think to look amongst the handprints written in "brown", urine puddles and waxy, non-absorbent toilet paper, occasionally you will find a nugget.
www.danielsturman.com
The ultimate www.danielsturman.com
At last a really clean, fresh and fun looking website that I can actually say I'm proud of. Thank You iweb.
I'm also corresponding the design into my myspace and blog. Each page has its own primary colour while the font and feature colour remains a light pearl yellow.

My Sister.
My sister is going to the big apple to represent Lowestoft College in the national hair growing competition. Her speciality is limb hair. Good luck Pippa.
But on a less serious note...
I Got all of my *glee* digital arts documentation done and even whipped up a website for it. [www.faceplaceshouldneverbeonline.com]. Now that is put t bed I can finally look into finishing zombie wedding and making a start on Spirit Heart. Hopefully going to get some people round to dramatically read the samples of Spirit Heart for me to I can get to grips with the drama of it. You would think I would get all the information I need from just the text but Gary has literally sent me the script (in the wrong formatting), no character profiles or even a plot synopsis.

A Half of Half Bore
You could life off of this stuff. Made up of Devon honey and plenty of love, Hunter's Brewery's Half Bore is one smooth son of a pint. It has that delicate malt flavour you imagine drinking water would have once had in the middle ages; the nectar of Chaucer and Henry II. It has a hops smell with very faint but pleasant nodes of summer AND winter fruits as well is a tiny hint of the perfume that you imagine dandelions must smell like. [I say "dandelions must smell like" because dandelions don't smell particularly sweetly. The first sip had lime in it but that soon passed.
I'll finish as I started; you could live off this stuff.

Stupid Parrot.
When I entered the little room where the Parrot lived, it looked at me, arched it's back, spread it's wings and turned to face me beak to beak. Then it did a poo and relaxed. So like us.
Anyway yes I am still doing this stupid documentation. You should seriously read it, you can hear that I am bitter about a couple of my lecturers being knobs and I am too angervose (that's when your impassioned with evil) to tone it down. Neil convinced me that I should do a website as well as the text documentation and while it's not much of a problem really, its a pain. Also faceplace is a physicalised realisation of Facebook so to put it online would be a little counter-productive. Nevertheless I purchased for about £20 a website called www.faceplaceshouldneverbeonline.com. Clever? I think not. First earning?, doubt it. Documentation only counts for 30% of this mark so I seriously doubt I'll even get a 2:1 for it. I have been stitched up royal this time tweety boy.
Daniel... The Parrot. ... killer. ... just kidding. ... not. ... no I am, I am.

not kidding.
