Guido is a close observer of BBC2's the Daily Politics and The Week, both fronted by Andrew Neil. Recently it has been noticeable that Brillo's hair seems to have undergone a renaissance.

I recently visited my friend Brillo in Leeds. He is not from Leeds, but he is a born and bred Yorkshireman, so when he says he is taking us on a bit of a pub crawl, it does make you wonder about the type of establishment we will be gracing with our presence.

The Brillo may be brilliant. But the potential customers, according to this ad - not so much. Also, they are angry. Not a good combination. Well, how does this lady clean a mashed potato pot? Oh, with a putty knife, of course! She just happened to have one handy. Right by the sink.

After the alcohol driven success of the local election night live-chat Guido will be hosting on the blog another live chat session from 11.30 until 12.30 covering PMQs. We will be watching the Daily Politics as our point of reference. On election night it was fun and profoundly profane.

Brillo Boxes by Arahan Claveau Its a nice idea to port Warhol’s works to SL… but the life of the original doesn’t quite make it through. Cubes are afforded by Second Life, so its obvious to texture a cube. Perhaps this is a comment on this very nature of the world… but I’m not sure.

Perhaps Kate Bosworth was getting into the spirit of things at Paris Las Vegas by dressing up in what she thought was a Parisian showgirl look. But I personally think she just looks like something you might use to clean the oven. It’s…comment est-ce qu’on dit…Brillo-tastic? Oui? Oui.
