Can you save the bunny?

Apparently not according to this short film from 3 Legged Legs

Have a nice day

3 lessons learned this weekend

Photoshop 7 .0 is great

Graphic design is easy

Time = k / Fun *


*Each of these variables is directly proportional with the multiplicative inverse of the other (i.e. 'Time Flies when you're having Fun')

Fire Your Imagination

Check out Melanie's site for some beautiful ceramics.

Better still, get up close and personal at Castle View Studio in Horsley, Northumberland.

Bash Crash Flash

Two flash games that kept me occupied for a few minutes. (Whilst the temptation to crash into things deliberately may be great, your will must be stronger, else the game will be short).

NinjaMan

He may not be Snowball or Usagi Yojimbo, but NinjaMan is still fun to play.

Rabbit Golf

Volkswagen of America, Inc. has announced that its all-new fifth generation Golf is going back to its roots with the original Rabbit nameplate for the U.S. and Canadian markets. The Rabbit will hop into the market in early summer, after its official introduction at the New York International Auto Show.

Waste Your Time

Author of the Timewaster Letters, Robin Cooper is my new hero. His website is possibly as bizarre as the workings of his mind, but I get the impression that maybe it only just scratches the surface. Whether it is a letter to the King of Belgium or a question for Parmaynu, this site truly has everything you never wanted to know. And yet it will make you cry with laughter.

They're Made Out Of Meat

Winner of the First Annual Science Fiction Short Film Festival, "They're made out of Meat" is based on a short story from writer Terry Bisson. Starring Tom Noonan (X-Files; Manhunter) and Ben Bailey, the strange conversation is directed by Stephen O'Regan.

Go Bunny! Go Bunny!

Nothing Lasts Forever

Can I help you?

PARTICIPATION: You must arrive adhering to a very specific dress code:
1) Blue Polo Shirt. Short sleeved. Any brand. Preferably with no logo. As Close to Royal Blue as possible.
2) Khaki Pants. Any shade of khaki is fine. No shorts.

MISSION: "We're heading up to the Best Buy on 23rd Street. We'll enter the store one by one. Once inside, spread out and stand near the end of an aisle, facing away from the merchandise. Don't shop, but don't work either. If a customer comes up to you and asks you a question, be polite and help them if you know the answer. If anyone asks you if you work there, say no. If an employee asks you what you're doing, respond 'I'm waiting for my girlfriend/boyfriend who is shopping elsewhere in the store.' If they question you about your clothing, just explain that it's what you put on when you woke up this morning and you don't know any of the other people dressed like you."

Rabbits are Mean and Nasty

Something Blue

This image caught my eye. A lot of this stuff is a bit too self indulgent but occasionally the odd one stands out. Fluorescence [6] is quite nice too.

Pipetree R.I.P.

Today seemed like a good day to get out in the garden and finally get rid of the old tree that once grew up behind the shed. Having hacked down the branches last year with the help of Siân's parents we were left with the tree stump and root system that would inevitably extend beneath the garden wall.

So, after digging down a couple of feet all round the stump I decided to move in towards the trunk only to find that the roots were going straight down a 7" earthenware pipe that someone had buried upright. This led me to 'phone a friend' and get confirmation that I wasn't about to discover an ancient sewer system that would require an emergency plumber on a Bank Holiday Monday (thanks, Dad!)

After further excavation Siân found the bottom of the pipe and we managed to finally cut the whole thing out. The monster was finally slain and would mock us no more. Rest in Peace - Pipetree - 1/5/06.

Let's get this settled once and for all

Had a good night playing Settlers of Catan. Two games with the standard expansion set and one monster game with the Cities & Knights expansion. (Apologies to all for ruining any plans they may have had for Sunday but it was never my intention to play till 3am!)

The game has lost none of it's appeal. In fact, it possibly becomes more appealing because, like Scrabble, you just want to finish the current game and start a new one. I'm sure the next time we play there will be less comradeship and a little more rivalry. That may also give one person a clear advantage rather than allowing three or four of us to nearly get to the end.

Thanks to Simon for expanding the game and thanks to Jemma and Tony for bringing carrot cake.

Life's Not Always A Bowl Of Radicchio

Thanks for the link Craig.

It is important to remember that there are always others less fortunate than ourselves and that humility is something we should all aspire to.

It is also good to laugh a bunny rabbits doing funny things.

What's Your Poison?

Inspired by this scene of devastation, I'm expecting this one to be quite tough, but then I'm not a big drinker. Have fun, but only in moderation.
