Minute Prologue.
I've been listening to all the dissention
I've been listening to all the pain
And I feel that no matter what I do for you
It's gonna come back again
But I think that I can heal it
but I think that I can heal it
I'm a fool that I think I can heal it
With this song......
Taken from the Album 'Live Songs (1973)' by Leonard Cohen

Franklyn
Film has already been premiered at the London film festival, and has garnered positive and negative reviews - depending on who's reviewing it.
The film is a split narrative set simultaneously in contemporary London and in a future metropolis ruled by religious fervor. It's the story of four lost souls, divided by two parallel worlds, on course for an explosive collision when a single bullet will decide all their fates.
Remains to be seen if it is a 'Cult' hit - has been compared with 'Dark City' and also 'V for Vendetta' - though that maybe just because of the Dark Dystopian feel the Film Trailer gives out - rather than because of Premise.

You Know Me........?
WISH
This is the first day of my last day
Build it up now take it apart climbed up real high now fall down real far.
No need for me to stay the last thing left I just threw it away.
(?) my trust in you
Now there's something more fucked up I could do
Wish there was something real ,wish there was something true
Wish there was something real in this world for you.
I'm the one without a soul, I'm the one with this big fucking hole.
No new tale to tell twenty-six years on my way to hell.
Big time hard line bad luck fist fuck
Don't think you're having all the fun
You know me I hate everyone
Wish there was something real ,wish there was something true
Wish there was something real in this world for you.
Wish there was something real ,wish there was something true
Wish there was something real in this world for you.
Wish there was something real ,wish there was something true
Wish there was something real in this world for you.
This world for you
This world for you
This world for ......

Connecting Macbook + Macbook Pro (late 2008) Unibody to HD TV (HDMI)
So many posts in forums about this 'question' I thought I'd try and add a little simplicity to the 'problem'
First of all you need to understand that The Mini Display port on your Macbook/Macbook Pro only transmits Video not audio. So hence a separate audio connection is required - via the headphone socket - and hence needs to be inputted into either your TV - if it can accept a separate audio to video signal or into a separate audio device - Like a 5.1 system or speaker system.
The cables required to achieve the video output are as follows:
Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter
£20 from Apple Store either online or Retail store.
Then also from Apple Store either online or Retail store :
Belkin HDMI to DVI Cable - 6ft
£14.63
So in total £34.63 will get your video signal to your HD TV.
As for the Audio a standard 3.5mm phones jack to whatever connection is on your TV/Audio system is all that remains to be bought and connected.
If you want to spend a little more you could always get the Apple Remote (£15.00) so you can run Frontrow via your armchair/Sofa
Obviously if your looking at running your Macbook from the sofa in terms of surfing checking your email etc you could invest in a Bluetooth Mighty Mouse and Bluetooth Apple Keyboard and run the Macbook remotely - also this would enable you to run the Macbook in 'Clamshell' mode - eg: closed.
Well hope this helps let me know if you've any questions.

Itunes Playcounts....
Lost my Itunes playcounts, you can manually import the numbers (a bit of a pain on 6389 songs admittedly) by using this script
