He’s a time-tossed day-dreaming dog-catcher looking for a cure to the poison coursing through his veins. She’s a tortured mutant mermaid from aristocratic European stock. They fight crime!

Even the bloggers are bored
It really is quite a boring election. Scary, Ginger and er Tony Blair really can’t be arsed can they. Its as if they all got together before the election and said, right, Michael you’ll pretend to be (surely are ~ ed) a dirty racist, I’ll be smug and generally get away with it and you, Charles, can have some good ideas but generally not convince anyone.
Compared to the often rabid blogging in the US 2004 Election, us UK bloggers aren’t really cutting it. The Guardian’s excellent blog is a great site, but even they are struggling to find any interest in the current events…even thier blogwatch is surprisingly bare today….
I mean its like GroundHog day, Iraq war, liar, MRSA, Imigration….er….er….stuff……etc……zzzzzzz……..
Roll on Peter Snow….we need ya.
Guerilla advertising – Tory stylee
I was travelling on the bus the other day and saw this on the back of the seat in front:
Now is it just me or does it seem unlikely that a self-respecting yooth would write this? No exactly going to get you much cred on the tough streets of Islington is it?
Could it be that screaming Lord Saatchi advised a little illegal guerilla advertising?
I pity the fool that came up with that idea. And on the bus….I thought only loosers used them.
Wibble
Made me smile
A Blonde and a Brunette jump off a tall building at the same time. Who hits the ground first?
Both of them hit the ground at the same time. Hair colour doesn’t affect acceleration due to gravity.
Why was six afraid of seven?
It wasn’t. Numbers are not sentient and thus incapable of feeling fear.
Fucken i.e.
No fucken (albeit optional) alpha channel support for PNG in Internet Explorer for Windows.
I really am getting quite annoyed at the general contempt Microsoft is showing for web developers. I mean i.e. 6 is 4 years old…..! The internet as we know it today is only really 8-10 years old. Imagine if the only cars we could drive we all based on 50 year old technology, going to the doctors and receiving only 200 year old medicine practices ~ this man is an imbecile , the treatment -blood letting / this man has scurvy – the treatment – blood letting!
Yes there is a hack and yes there is an explanation. But I am fed up with hacks muddying (even further) my code with yet another workaround to accommodate one browser (yes a [sub]90% usage browser).
Its like the annoying kid at a birthday party who won’t join in, generally wines about everything and smells of biscuits. But you can’t do a damn thing coz his brother is a psycho who will shove pencils in your nose, and one little complaint from any of you is met with a wailing ‘i’ll tell my brother about you’!.
New design
Like an excited child, I tend to get bored of the site design quicker than you can say i.e. hack.
So here is the new design (version 9 I think). Something a little lighter for the spring.
Monkey Political Advertising
Introducing Monkey Political Advertising. As all the main parties are just being rather nasty about it all, and photoshopping is all the rage. It only seems fair that I chip in with me 2pennies worth….
First up, the obvious
Matron – are you thinking what I’m thinking
With the Tories claim that Matron will get hospitals clean (I assume she will solve that pesky problem of viruses evolving with a firm frown and a jolly good ticking off), it got me thinking this is a little deja-vu.
Didn’t they bring them back already?
And why hasn’t Milburn said anything, when he was the one that brought her back?
Unless the Tories mean they are going to clone Hattie Jacques and place one of her in every Hospital?
