The Odd Link
The last week being the first full working week was a very busy week. I managed the odd post on my IslayBlog but didn't find the time to write anything here. Stumbled over the odd link during the week, so I thought I just post them here:
- I'm not entirely sure if they are serious, but how about buying a giant microbe fluffy toy? The Common Cold may be? Or Athlete's Foot? Whatever you fancy...
- Coming from Germany I was surprised about the amount of jaywalking here in the UK when I first moved here. Now I have to be careful not to do it when I visit Germany for a rare visit, if caught it might get me a fine. For other countries the BBC comes to the rescue: What every Brit should know about jaywalking
- I haven't seen Snakes on a Plane (from what I hear it's not really worth it anyway?), but I still found this blog entry very funny: Snakes on a plane: the sequel. And the cows on the beach don't only exist on the Outer Hebrides, I've also seen them on Colonsay.
- This songs gets some airplay on BBC 6 Music, here's a video for it: Dan Sartain / Walk among the Cobras. This version is b&w, I think the 'official' version is in colour.
- Forget Video Conferencing, How About Video Dining?. Apparently the system will cost USD 500-1000 per household, which seems a bit expensive to me. What's wrong with a cheap webcam and the odd long distance celebration?
- This was in a lot of blogs already, so I thought I'll link to it as well: Thief steals urinal from city pub. In particular because he has since been caught: Appeal flushes out urinal thief. Apparently he took the urinal as a souvenir. Yeah right...
- This might come in handy if I need one of these generator sites: The Generator Blog. Who knows, may be I'll need the Custom Can Maker or the Disneyland Sign Generator one day?
I think that'll have to do for now. (Yes, that's enough links. Do something productive now. Ed.)
