Google Goats for the Mountain View

Forget Google Street View, now there's Catacomb View!

In 2008, NHS spent £350M on management consultants

These Digilegs thingys are kinda cool.  Slightly reminiscent of Robocop (or to be more precise, those things that went after the copper* cop).  These are being built-to-order by the inventor and cost under $1K.  Bargain!  Although there's a two month waiting list - but that's a small price to pay and worth the wait if you're a shorty (they add 14 inches!)

*yes, I know he wasn't copper, but you try finding a well known metal that rhymes with a law enforcement name (it can't be done!)

Judging by this video and the Daily Mail article, it would look like Britain's opposition leader, David Cameron was a bit of a cheesy quaver during the Summer of Love.  Does he still attend events scattered around the M25, meeting at service stations moments before?  Who knows!  Oi, oi, Dave - nice one matey!

According to the Mail (I've yet to check it out).. "Tory blogger Guido Fawkes, aka Paul Staines, was Head of PR for the 1988-89 rave party planners, Sunrise."

Foxy Bingo

This has to be my favourite quote of the day.  Okay, I shortened it a bit (up there) - here it is in full (down below)...

"I was just sitting at the computer playing Foxy Bingo and everything just shook"

That was the reaction by one woman (Teresa Wintrop) to an earthquake in northern England this morning as seen on the Lancashire Evening Post's website this morning.

News about Susan Boyle (that Scottish woman off the telly & the 'Tubes) has been flooding the interweb thicker and faster than the run-off from a milk tanker crashing into a Nesquik factory.  Lot's has been said, but most is nothing new.  Well I've got the scoop:

Jimmy Krankie IS Susan Boyle?

Remember folks, you read it here first.

I try my best to keep my blog family friendly so would never dream of using the 'C' word here.  What 'C' word is that, Ant?  It's the one that can be found buried inside the name of the northern English town of Scunthorpe.

I reckon the 'T' is just about okay, at least in the context of this post.  Funny thing is I always thought it was limited in use to just the UK and Ireland, didn't know the Yanks used it too (although, rather ironically, they pronounce it a lot posher than we do).

Anyway, enough of my jibber jabber, below is a video of Stephen Colbert on NBC's Today Show telling host, Meredith Vieira that he has twatted on Twitter...

Funniest (strange and 'ha ha') story of the day, although I wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere near 'em...

BBC: Deer stop at beer shop
MSNBC: Deer Make Beer Run In Greensburg
KDKA: Deer beer run
WPXI: Deer go for beer...

As a sure-fire way of killing oneself, hurling yourself from the top of one Niagara's waterfalls might seem like a good idea.  Usually it is.  But for one poor fellow it simply wasn't good enough.  He survived the fall and, to add insult to (a lack of) injury he got rescued by er, rescuers - although he did attempt to swim away from them!
