Spirited leveller from Tommi Teacakes

In his own words:

"There's something wonderfully satisfying about spirit levels. Does yours have a magnetic strip Dyl I wonder?

The Spirit Level's Ode

I'm on the level, yeah
No lies on me.
Check for yourself mate!
Straight up - go on, see!

See, I'm the great leveller -
What you see is what you get.
No spin, no strings, no lies, no grief,
No calls you tomorrow or ask my mate Pete.

I treat everyone equal,
I don't bend the rules.
Nah, it ain't anti-discriminatory whatsit
That's just how it is!

I'm on the level, I'm tellin' ya -
Look with your eyes!
That's bang on the money
Ain't no surprise."

Video poetry star Teacakes

now, how do we get tom's poetic skills recognised with murmelsson.blogspot? since i've temporarily mislaid his spirit-leveller of a haiku. now, blogspot claims to be able to upload videos all by itself, however in three separate tests over two months this has blatantly failed... now, will blogspot at least embed a video, that would give us a taste of teacakes freestyle commentary style...



oh yesh... so we just need to stick for example that Terns Rap on google video and we're off... hmmm, for some reason it's not playing... what about the "loser's hat on"-rap then... yes, we can load it up and even link to it...

Teacakes Midsummer Rap

but can we embed it? no idea. it's all a bit sketchy with these free google sites and my rusty webage, different bits work better than others. well let's try it, a bit of cut and paste and finicky finick with youtube code here..

... with predictable results. enough, enough for today.

Murmelsson and Deckchairs

Murmelsson currently somewhat distributed or networked in his WebPresence... not to worry, Murmelsson will work this out. Perhaps he will assign philosophamusings to the spacecog deckchair, commentary varieuse to murmelsson.blogspot.com... yesh.
