Friday Film Fest

August 12th, 2005 | Category: Video

A short short piece of animation, probably as an experiment, of a girl on a jet-powered hovering motorcycle or something. Very cool. There’s background music, though, and the banner at the top of the screen is NSFW.

Furthering the sci-fi theme, this is an advertisement for Microsoft’s new something or other. Server software or something. Whatever. I probably won’t be buying it, but it’s very well done, with a retro Buck Rogers theme. There’s music and sound effects, so it might not be SFW. Or maybe your boss hates Microsoft, so take that into consideration.

There’s no excuse for this, except that it shows a bunch of pretty women (and one goof) dancing to a catchy song. You should be advised, therefore, that the video contains music, so it might not . . .

Oh, hell. It’s Friday. Crank it up.

Palistianian style. For good measure; Reactionista includes a map of Palestine through time for your reading pleasure.

F&W have a suggestion

Wouldn’t this make for an amusing play to premiere at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. I wonder how many performances you would get through before being shut down?

McCririck on Blair’s absence from Cook’s funeral

August 12th, 2005 | Category: Political Correctness, Politics, UK Politics

...said that even though Margaret Thatcher disliked the late Prime Minister Ted Heath, she had still attended his funeral last month.

“All of us have changed our plans to show our respect and affection for Robin and to Gaynor and the boys and the family,” he said.

“But there is just one exception to that, and that’s the nation’s leader, the Prime Minister.

“I believe (his) snub to Robin’s family and to millions of New Labour voters, demonstrates a petty vindictiveness and a moral failure, opting to continue snorkelling, instead of doing his duty.”

The comments, which were broadcast on a loudspeaker outside the cathedral, were met with a round of applause from onlookers.

McCritick is known for being blunt; needless to say some of Blair’s cronies are not happy. Considering what a left-winger Cook was I am guessing the ole’ Labour drones in the audience probably were not to pleased to hear their bete noir mentioned.

Masters Chez Nous

It is true, what they say: French is the language of clever little remakes of mini-putt games. Click on “Jouer!” on the left hand side and beware the cat. He doesn’t steal the ball, just emits annoying meows on a regular basis.
