KEEP UP THE CATS, JAMES BLUNT!

And now for some late afternoon idiocy...
Earlier today we wrote about the adorable feline fisting James Blunt's broken pinky, and in the piece described his music as "boring" and "rubbish".
Shortly afterwards, Frances M Benz - a devoted James Blunt fan - piped up in the comments section for the post "OBVIOUSLY, YOU MUST ALSO DISLIKE THE LIKES OF JAMES TAYLOR ect. IF YOU ARE SO BORED WRITE ABOUT YOUR MOM!!! JAMES KEEP UP THE CATS & IGNOE IDIOTS WHO HAVE NO EAR FOR MUSIC!!!!"
Cut to your Editor and Associate Editor chuckling about the comment later in a Gmail chat, basically dwelling on the "KEEP UP THE CATS" bit because it reminded us of the infamous All Your Base Are Belong To Us phenomenon's use of English.
Clem: IF YOU ARE SO BORED WRITE ABOUT YOUR MOM!!! JAMES KEEP UP THE CATS. I am so intrigued as to what "keep up the cats" may mean
Jess: Oh, because I said James Blunt's music sounded like a cat getting fisted while someone plays acoustic guitar. Arf!
Clem: oh. HAHAHAHA - so in essence they are admitting it sounds like that
Jess: HOW ARE YOU GENTLEMEN - KEEP UP THE CATS
Clem: FOR GREAT JUSTICE
Jess: I feel like making James Blunt tshirts now
Clem: KEEP UP THE CATS! with Blunt giving a thumbs up
Jess: WAIT MINUTE FOR ME PLEASE GREAT JUSTICE
And so, for no real reason whatsoever other than the fact we're mildly bored, we present the closest thing to a picture of James Blunt giving a thumbs up besides text saying "KEEP UP THE CATS"

We'll let you know when the t-shirts are ready for purchase.
(Please feel free to make your own James Blunt KEEP UP THE CATS picture and send it in, your Editor has the Photoshop skills of a drunken mentally impaired Colubus monkey...)

· Al Pacino made a guest appearance on The Late Show With David Letterman last night to promote his new film, 88 Minutes (aka Nick Of Time 2: Nicked Again!). Let this clip of Al Pacino putting Dave Letterman and the rest of the viewing audience to sleep with his Ted Striker-esque stories be a lesson to all of you up-and-comers in Hollywood; should you ever get called to sit on the chair next to Dave, Jay, Conan, Jimmy or Craig, the most important thing you can do is to PRACTICE YOUR ANECDOTES. And if you get called to do Carson Daly's show? Don't worry, no one is watching. [
