Yes, we wear glasses and have dark hair. No, we do not look like harry potter.

Dear Universe.

I am writing this on behalf of all males who happen to have dark hair and glasses.

We have already been told that some people think we look like harry potter. We don't, most of us, and even if you think we do, it's pretty likely someone's pointed it out before.

We don't think you're witty, or original and telling someone they look like someone else is never, in any way, a compliment.

An easy way to tell us apart is that harry potter is a fictional character, ripped off from another fictional character in a book ripped off several other books by a writer who's only real talent is marketing.

We, however, are the non-fictional people who look like we're going to kick your non-fictional face off for saying we look like harry potter.

Thank you.

Sometimes a stag weekend just needs more Godzilla and kids.

Amazing 'art car' on sale on ebay, designed by kids.

To quote the auction:

Well, its not something you normally see everyday on e-bay!!!!!

This Volvo was used last week for an art project by my wife who is an art teacher....the kids at her school were given a free hand to do whatever they wanted to the car and this was the result......it was even funnier but the rain affected the glue holding all sorts of soft toys, plastic toys etc that were glued to the roof.....most of it is now in the boot including the Godzilla plastic head....marvelous!

So, my thinking is this.....if you are off on a Hen Weekend or Stag weekend then what better way to humiliate the hen or stag than to take them away in this....Or maybe you have a big personality and want to use the car as an everyday car...infact that would be hilarious!!!

I was watching Elf yesterday and it struck me that

I can't see James Caan without remembering him being shot by machine guns from two different directions in slow motion for about two minutes.
I can't see Richard Gere without wanting him to be shot by machine guns from two different directions in slow motion for about two minutes.
I can't see Chow Yun-Fat without remembering him shooting out with machine guns in two different directions in slow motion for about two minutes.

That iPhone

It occurred to me recently, while trudging through endless posts about the iPhone coming or the iPhone being released or the iPhone's packaging or the iPhone in someone's hands or the iPhone not in someone's hands, that it's not actually that good.

It can't record video, it can't send media messages, it doesn't support 3g, or instant messaging, or third party applications, or hot-swapping for memory cards and the battery isn't user replaceable. Should the battery die, you will have to send it off to be replaced. You will be charged an undisclosed fee for this.

All this for $499 or $599, depending on which one you choose.

So let's see - an overexposed, money grabbing, publicity whore that doesn't actually do anything.

The iPhone is Paris Hilton.

New old Indy trilogy

Does this mean Harrison Ford is done with this franchise after this film? Apparently not! He signed a three picture deal, his final stint as the whip wielding adventurer will be a trilogy. This means they better crank out these films pretty quickly before it becomes Indiana Jones and the Hunt for His Prune Juice. He is getting on in years after all.

So at this rate we'll have one every twenty years?

I'd love a final film about Indy, bitter and alone, senile and regularly soiling himself, trying to convince the nurses that he once killed nazis by the dozen and used crocodiles as stepping stones, occasionally silently sobbing to himself that he forgot where he put his hat.

Messing around with blogging.

Carry on.
