Cup Of Coffee

Yet another example why Google Video and YouTube are taking over the web. Again I’ve no idea why or where, but it seems to involve someone singing, “Chacarron, chacarron, chaca-chaca-rron-rron-rron” a lot. To be honest you’d think it was a load of old arse, however there’s apparently lyrics in there somewhere, which I’ve put at [...]

A few Friday links for you that have been filling my inbox this week. Pride of place has to be this lad, who’s been given a Nintendo 64 for Christmas. He’s obviously happy. Very, very, very happy indeed. I love the video slow-mo when he shouts out “Nintendo Sixty Foooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…..” The police meanwhile are trying [...]

Isn’t it amazing what women can do ? The sheer power of a woman is shown in a few news stories today. The first is from Sky News and features a guy who really should learn when to “fess up”. Last year Peter Aldred, 41, was bombing down the M1 in his Scooby-Doo Impreza when [...]

Remember those old public information films when you were a kid ? For some reason at school we almost had these played to us daily. The green cross code, “Charly Says”, “Clunk-Click Every Trip” and those nutters who used to fly kites underneath pylons… what were they thinking ? We all knew what to do [...]

Yeah.. Bling Bling Baby! Who needs naff blue LED’s on the bonnet / hood of their car when you can have then next big thing in modifications? Direct from the USA come the “PimpStar” range of wheels. Wanna impress your mates around McDonalds? Well, provided you NEVER stop driving, you certainly will with these! See, [...]

A little geeky this one, but heck, I’m gonna blog it. I stumbled across this rather excellent desktop by M

One thing I keep meaning to blog but never get around to concerns petrol stations. Now, I’m not sure whether it’s worldwide, but the Petrol (Gas/Fuel) Stations here generally have these pumps which keep the pipe neatly tucked away in the pump using some sort of coil-spring mechanism so that it sucks the pipe back [...]

OK, I’m lost. Someone please enlighten me. What the hell is going on here. Sure, it’s some of our European neighbours going nuts with some weird kind of jumnping dance.. but.. why? While I’m here, the “Petty Childish Award” of the week has to go to ITV1 – a TV channel here in the UK. [...]

Before I mention our wedding, I’ve spent a few hours “tweaking” CoolSmartPhone recently. The search function has been overhauled with an easy interface into the Google site search, plus there’s now less adverts and less bandwidth-sucking stuff on the main page. I’ve also altered / removed some of these side-panels to streamline things. The reason? [...]

The Transport Secretary here in the UK has some very strange ideas. We’ve already had a bus lane on the M4, which remains the only bus lane on a motorway in this country. So, how to make things worse? Well, our current Transport Secretary – Alistair Darling – has decided to do something which – [...]
