Apple Campness…

July 06th, 2007 | Category: Technology

From David Pogue iPhone the Musical? Yes, its camp as hell but no naffer than anything in the West End. You have to admit that Mac users do have a very good sense of humour. BTW I felt close to chucking my current phone in the same way recently.

Cue Dry Ice, Spooky Music!

July 06th, 2007 | Category: Politics

I believe Cheech & Chong had a wonderful line on this sort of thing. “I used to be f*ed up on drugs, now I am f*ed up on Jesus.” The 700 Club plays with a Quija board and comes out with what you would expect them to. However the telling of the tale is great, if unintentional, comedy.

The Politico:

To the frustration of the cameramen in the Fairfield town square, [Barack] Obama delivered his remarks facing east, with the setting sun behind him blotting out their shots.

But here, theres a power even higher than the television networks: Obama had positioned himself in alignment with the rotation of the earth, in accordance with the teachings of the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, whose followers moved en masse to this small Iowa city more than 30 years ago.

The Maharishis transcendental meditators, along with vacationing pilgrims from the East Coast, turned out in large numbers in the towns traditional green square to hear the Illinois senator deliver his stump speech on the night of July 3—more people, Fairfields sheriff said, than had come out to greet a sitting president.

“I saw him and I thought, Oh my god, this is somebody who could lead us into a new era,” said Nancy Watkins, an international student adviser at the Maharishi University of Management.

Obama’s New-Agey campaign creeps into Dennis Kucinich territory. I never thought I’d say it, but Hillary! almost looks like the rational one in this bunch.
