Sad stuff (Amy Winehouse) and squirrels

Bloody hell. I was listening to the news today, and it reported that Amy Winehouse had died. She was someone who had been omnipresent in the UK newspapers for nearly a decade; initially for her breath-taking talent as a singer, and latterly because of her personal troubled life, fuelled by addictions.

The thing that shocked me the most, was that I had forgotten how bloody young she was. She had packed so much into her short life, that it was hard to believe that she was only 27 when she finally died. Blimey, she was only a wee slip of a girl - someone's daughter - lost to the disease of addiction. It's such a waste.

Whilst reading the reports of her demise, I found two things that were particularly interesting.

The first related to the fact that she had died specifically at the age of 27. As such, she informally became part of a pantheon called the '27 club' (also known as 'Forever 27'), which is a group of talented musicians who have struggled to come to terms with their fame and have died (mainly due to their addiction disease) aged 27. This group includes Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Brian Jones and Kurt Cobain.

The second thing that I found interesting, was a excerpt from an interview that she gave a number of years ago, where her hopes and dreams seemed poignantly conventional: “I’ve always been a little homemaker,” she told an interviewer. “I know I’m talented, but I wasn’t put here to sing. I was put here to be a wife and a mum and to look after my family. I love what I do, but it’s not where it begins and ends.”

That to me, is the real tragedy.

So after all that sad shit, I decided to cheer myself up. You know .... find a ying to balance the yang, or a grape to counteract the olive, or a dog to kill the cat. 

And from past experience, the best way to do that is to Google 'squirrels'. No matter what life throws at you, it can always be remedied by collecting comedy pictures of squirrels.

Pic.No.4 Gonad squirrel wants to drive a Ferrari but can only afford a Toyota which has led to squirrel inferiority complex. Instead of an expensive car, he has bought the license plate 'BIG NADS' which he hopes will pull the lady squirrels in lieu of a Ferrari

Pic.No.5 A handy addition which details the nutritional information should you want to scoff one of our furry friends

Pic.No.6 This one reminded me of Izzy's dad, Steve. That's what he does if he is stuck in a traffic jam on the way to a restaurant. He is such a girl

And finally, my piece de resistance ...... a video of horny squirrels having a threesome. I think us humans could learn something from this. No need for foreplay, just go in for the headlock and follow it up immediately with doggy-style action. It is really efficient and leaves all parties with plenty of time to watch their favourite soap-operas.

So dahlink, how is your weekend going, and what are you up to? And what are your views on Amy Winehouse?

Tell me what you think by leaving me a comment otherwise a squirrel will try and boff your leg with no foreplay as a warning
