Blue Hair

Have younoticed how, in any cartoon, there is always at least one character with blue hair? James in Team Rocket, Marge Simpson, the guy in X-Men... and yet I have never met any real person who had blue hair.

So, why on earth do they do it?
Bob Snitchet

Granny WLW has blue hair! Well, more of a blue rinse really.

Dear Santa

This year I would like:

1 To destroy the Big Brother house, complete with residents.
2 Total control of the western hemisphere.
3 To see Will Young, Gareth Gates et al sacrificed to appease the gods for our wrongdoings.
4. Some wintery weather at the correct time; ie, not summer.
5. An orange teapot.
Satan's Rubber Duck

The orange teapot is pushing it. He's a busy man, you know.

At a time when literate, intelligent bands are at more of a premium than ever, it's mind-boggling to see the wonderful Hope of The States be dismissed as "tuneless clowns". I despair sometimes, I really do. The Doc

I don't always agree with Earls's reviews, but he introduced me to Hope of The States, one of the best bands this decade. Unlike Misanthrope, I'd put their second album in my all-time Top 10, not Riots. The Deceiver

Thanks to PS, I first heard of Liam Frost many years ago and I'm so glad you brought him to my attention. His debut album was great, he's a superb live performer and, after briefly meeting him at his Manchester Rubg gig on wednesday, he's a lovely bloke.

His new album should be a cracker, from what I've heard. He looked 10 years younger, and seemed more confident of himself. Three other good acts on the bill, all for £8. Moggy

You were saying how names aren't always true. For example, The Kilted Haggis not being Scottish and Pink Mafia not really being pink, but I would like to confirm that I am most definitely a lemon and the 12th one at that.

How bad were Franz Ferdinand and La Roux doing Call Me at the NME awards last week? A lot of singers I love can't sing in the classical sense, but they were truly awful. "Flat" doesn't even come close. At least with Guantamo Bay shutting down, they can't use it there. Lem Fatale

The singles chart is a poll of sales. Not many people bought U2's single, hence its low position. It's not hard to understand. Croydon Barry

Nobody seems to have anything positive to say about Muse releasing a classical album, but I'm very excited to hear it. Muse have touched on classical music from the start, shown on all their albums, so they're not new to it. Nor are they pretentious, as Ellis seems to think. Citizen Erased

All this talk of The Specials reforming reminds me of seeing them in 1978 in Leeds, when they supported The Stranglers. Great days. Kev Hyland

When I Was Young

When I first began reading Zine many years ago, I can remember thinking that weird thing in the top right hand corner was actually a portrait of WLW. And, of course, for all we know this theory could well be correct.

I wonder what it would be like if we had the knowledge that WLW was in fact a demented blob with a contorted face?

WLW's Identity Revealed

Ziners, wonder no longer about WLW's identity. I have discovered that WLW is, in fact, ex-*rsenal and Dirty Leeds manager George Graham.

Think about it, he still has a deep love for *rsenal (look at how he did at Spurs). Not only that, but we all know WLW is a comedy genius. Who else would think of spending millions on Sergei Rebrov?!

Someone asked if the Ed ever got bored with reading their drivel, to which the reply was: "We enjoy reading alll your letters, as long as they are interesting, funny or topical." Are these people mad? Nothing that's printed on B*ckch*t ever falls into those categories.

I wanna make a complaint against the makers of that movie. Scooby Doo. They have done to the legend what All Saints did to Under The Bridge and in doing so have defiled my childhood. How can they pick that awful cast? Velma should have been played by Kelly Osbourne (fat, whiny nerd). Fred should have been played by anyone but Freddy Prinze Jr. Shaggy was made for Screech from Saved By The Bell, and Daphne was never that.. carrotesque!

Plurals

Should you, by some weird chance, have more than one mongoose,, would you havre mongooses, mongeese or still mongoose? Like fish. Personally, I think fishies or fishes sounds better than fish, if you are talking about plurals.

If someone asked you what you had for lunch and you said fish, they might not know if you had one fish, or more than one fish. The same goes for sheep.

I suggest holding a reality TV show to discover one lawyer who is willing to give up the law to do... well, whatever it is that Dave actually does in Blur.

Also, some people are shocked that, at 50, Michael Jackson will still be able to perform. Surely some bits of him are less than five years old? DJ Gordy

The interview segments in Elvis Costello's chatshow Spectacle are horribly self-congratulatory back-slapping. There's no real insight into any of the artists, beyond the affirmation: "You're really great." "I know, thank you."

However, the performances from Tony Bennett, Smokey Robinson and Costello's wife Diana Krall were rather special and made the tedium somewhat worth it. Bobby Cook

For Earls to call The Lonely Island's album Incrediband one-dimensional is laughable. His review focused on its singles and previous skits which, after 9m views on YouTube, can get tiring. The album has 19 hilarious songs with lyrics that will be drilled into your head. They're very different to Flight of Conchords. Robyn Donaldson

Earls: I hadn't heard Lonely's stuff before the album. I'm unimpressed- it really doesn't bear repeat plays.

I agree that, with the release of new albums by Dr Dre, Eminem and certainly Lupe Fiasco, hip hop will get a shot in the arm. But, with Dre spending more time on producing Eminem watered down like Robinson's Barely Water and Lupe already talking of retirement, is the future of rap Flo Rida? I certainly hope not.

Hopefully grime can carry the torch until The Roots hit big or someone new breaks through. David McMillan

I missed it- and, boy, am I glad.

You Know It's Hot When...
* The boiled sweet on the pavement has melted.
* Fat people swelter in unforgiving pastel shorts.
* You see more Harley Davidsons.
* You have to close the curtains to stop the sun melting your audio-visual equipment.
* You spend time indoors sheltering from the sun instead of the rain.

And why does people's fashion sense go out the window in the summer?

Greetings All

Only just got the e-mail address, so this is my first message.

Please don't vote Jade off Big Brother, keep her in. Except at the end... board up the place with her still in there and keep her there for good. Much safer than letting her roam free.

Perhaps we could incarcerate them all- let them eat each other.

A Leprechaun Called Steve After talking about the best C4 shows, I think I'll mention the best C5 shows. Um... bit of a dry hole, isn't it?

Isn't it just.

Non.

Satan's Rubber Duck Yay! I'm on holiday and I'm going to visit you, WLW! WLW Towers is in Nottingham, isn't it? So whose house am I standing outside?

Dunno, but do you see that car with a flashing light?
