Slap Organ
Slap the Japanese bloke & try to make a tune. Good clean family fun for Xmas.
Joe Strummer Dead
The title says it all. Strummer Dies aged 50. Now, this might not mean a whole lot to most of you but this actually shocked me far more than Kurt Cobain’s death and needless to say that I’m gutted. I didn’t even need to reach far for the Clash cd’s this morning as I was listening to “Sandinista” last night and it was still in the cd player – not that spooky or anything, just sad.
Space Cab
Don’t plan on doing anything else this lunchtime if you start playing this game – Titoonic Space Cab. It’s rock hard. After 5 minutes, I still hadn’t managed to complete the first task. Fun for people with more patience than me!
The Gallery of Regrettable Food
The Gallery of Regrettable Food contains a myriad of apparently consumable dishes just like mother used to make. The images staright from 40′s, 50′s & 60′s cookbooks are so vile that it’s a wonder people didn’t scream to go back to rationing! Bacon milkshakes anyone?
Behind the Scenes at South Park
Looks like the animators of South Park can actually draw after all. Here are some examples of what they do in their spare time.
ASYLUM
Anyone was was alive in Leeds in the early 90′s will remember the best club ever – ASYLUM. If I sound slightly biased, then yes, I am – it’s where I found my wife & a whole shed-load of long lasting mates (many of you wil be reading this blog so hi to you all) as well as being the pinnacle of my music performing career (although I didn’t even make it on stage!)
Anyway, the initiator of the whole thing, Carl, has finally decided to give Asylum it’s own little place on the web. Not a huge amount up there yet but give him enough time to scan in the ultra cool flyers & give me a few months to get some of the old video digitized and then you can all laugh at us on stage! If anyone out there has any stuff relating to Aslyum then please mail it to me at the usual address & if you run your own sites then please link to the Asylum page.
Terminator 3 trailer
Hollywood is now officially out of new ideas. Next July brings Terminator 3 and here’s the trailer for it. I expect big things from this movie although Arnie does look a bit too old now.
Back from my snozz-job
*sarcasm mode on*
Thanks for all your well-wishes for my operation – really appreciated
*/sarcasm mode off*
If any cares (and it looks like you don’t!), the operation was a complete success (so far) & I escaped without a pair of black eyes although it does still look like I’ve been in a decent fight. I feel like sh1te but hopefully I’ll be back to full strength by Xmas day and with any luck I might be able to breathe through my nose again – you never know, I might even get my sense of smell back after 8 years!
Anyway, none of you care about that so on with the blogging…
Der erotikkalender
Which translates as the erotic calendar – a cheeky german advent calendar. NSFW but quite funny all the same. Oh those wacky Germans!
XMas Flash games
Time for another couple of posts…
Here’s a couple of little flash games – first one has you playing a little pixel person who has to collect presents whilst avoiding blocks of concrete hidden in the snow. The second one has even more irritating music and consists of you collecting presents (hey – I didn’t say they were original ideas!) whilst trying not to fall off ledges.
Javascripts
Ok, there may be one or two more posts before I go into hospital!
I bet you’re all glad that I didn’t put any of these scripts on this site! They’re all very clever but in practise, very annoying!
No posts for the next 3 days!!!
I’m really sorry about this guys & gals but there ain’t gonna be anything new on here until Thursday at the earliest as I’ll be in hospital for minor operation (nothing cool – just a septoplasty as a result of being smacked in the face about 8 years ago!). Hopefully I’ll be out on Thursday so expect more content by Friday. In the meantime you’ll have to amuse yourselves in your lunchbreaks, trawl through my archives or click on some of the buttons on the right of the screen if you get really bored and if you do find anything cool on your travels then please mail it to me at whatever @ pri.me.uk & I’ll look at it when I’m recuperating at home (c’mon – I need some sympathy!)
Rider on a Harp?
Here’s a video of some laydee (I guess she’s Joanna Jordan) playing Riders on the Storm by the Doors on a harp. – Quirky.
The Brains Trust
The Brains Trust is an excellent UK based parody/satire site. Recently they did a review of the new Lord of the Rings film – the review is funny but the comments afterwars are even better – almost on par with that petition to change the name of the film as a mark of respect to the Twin Towers tragedy.
Merry Jeebus
This is the only Christmas card that I need this year. It really shows the true meaning of Xmas and has cute little christmas lights.
X2 Movie Trailer
I know it’s not released until May next year but here’s the trailer for the sequel to the X-Men movie.
RIAA cock up again
The Recording Industry ASS of America have done it again. This time they seem to have got Secret service agents to help them on a raid and then woefully exaggerated the success of the raid by claiming that they recovered 421 CD-R burners. Oh, no hang on – that’s the equivalent of 421 burners. There were actually only 156 burners but some of them were very fast so they count as more than one. Is it just me or does that seem like a really good idea? Maybe my boss will agree and pay me double for all my good work or maybe the police will count each arrest as two arrests if the bad guy was really, really naughty?
Weird Xmas presents
Still stuck for Chrimbo pressies, even after my previous suggestions?
Well here are some more odd ones you could get
1. a Daddle – a saddle that you strap to your back so your kid can ride about on you (and your chiropractor can earn some extra money)
2. how about a body stapler kit for those wilderness emergencies?
3. or a chcoclate photograph of a loved one – so good you could eat it (actually, I think that’s the idea!)
4. or some christmas tree lights made out of shotgun shells.
5. or a purse made out of duct tape (that’s gaffa tape to snobs like me!)
6. or, finally, how about a bathroom tennis kit?
All those gifts would be more than welcome by me – well, let’s face it, with my mother-in-law staying for Christmas, I need every laugh I can get!
Santa Ski Jump
Here’s a seasonal Flash game – Santa Ski - best thing is it’s easy to play with a hangover – just press and hold the space bar. Notice that I didn’t say it was easyto win, just that it’s easy to play.
How Well Do You Pick Noses?
In the same vein as gash or tash, gay or german, ass or elbow, comes How Well Do You Pick Noses? in which you have to guess if the noses (nez?) belong to a bird or a bloke.
Christmas Winking Jeff and His Driving Kittens
Next up is another singing kitten animation entitledChristmas Winking Jeff and His Driving Kittens which features a Chris Rea song. This one isn’t by Joel Veitch but is clearly inspired by Joel’s style (which is now as seen on tv)
Spot The Clifference
It’s Friday, which means the new B3ta newsletter is out.
First up is Spot The Clifference a very silly game indeed.
Headline of the year returns
Sex cannibal dined on flambeed penis
You know you just can’t lose with a headline like that!
JCPenney Catalog Fall/Winter 1980
It’s a shame you can’t still buy these clothes as most of the styles are back in fashion now. Mmmm, spandex!
Yahoo’s top 20 websites of 2002
I really don’t think that these sites are the best of the web this year but there are some good ones in there like Sharpeworld and their fantastic (but not altogether SFW) 80′s biker ads from magazines.
Froogle Google
Yet another toy from those Google people – Froogle is a shopping search which shows you images from the sites. The Google R&D; dept must be having some fun at this time of year.
Liv Tyler to marry in Leeds
The Lastest gossip from PopBitch is that Liv Tyler will be gettign married in Leeds next year. For those of my readers in Leeds, you may be interested to know that you can quite often see her in Joseph’s Well gig venue – I’ve seen her there once before & a few friends have seen her there for other gigs. If you’re wondering why, it’s because her fiance is in the band Spacehog who originate from Leeds.
On a side note about Popbitch, they mentioned the next Christina Aguilera video in today’s newsletter – my cousin will be the producer of that video (sorry, just had to namedrop that one!)
Oh Dear God!
I assume most people in the UK have heard of the Cheeky Girls by now. There’s a really sad game on their website which seems to be about fingering them?!?!
If this is popular culture then I give up!
