Palfrey's life

As the title may have hinted, I still haven't got back into the habit of blogging stuff as it happens. It used to be that MLP and quiz results got stacked up, but everything else got told about when I did it. So, the first of these things is today, and the other is yesterday. And through both I've had a bloody Freshers' flu variant... snufflies for two days now.

I've got this mix CD I did a long while back for one of the previous houses I was in, and I somehow ended up taking it with me. I was just playing some of it earlier, and I find out that my housemate Sabine (over the course of a conversation) does not know who R.E.M. are, or Radiohead, or Sartre. She hasn't even heard the damn names.... ditto for any cultural references that I know of at all.... Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't *everyone* of our approximate age (+- say 5 years) and in the Western world (certainly Western Europe), heard of at least one of those. Not "can quote chapter and verse on", but has *heard* *the* *bloody* *name*. I'm going to have to start an immediate program of cultural indoctrination methinks!
