Photo Hunt; Yellow

Looking across our salt lake at just that moment when sunset turns the high wispy clouds yellow. Two minutes ago they were white, in another two minutes they will be orange, on their way to being pink. But right now, they are yellow.

Goodbye Internet. It Was Good While It Lasted.

Australia has moved closer to a dictatorship than it ever has before. The internet in Australia will soon become just what the bureaucracy has been wanting since 1995. Controlled, censored and emasculated. Senator Conroy’s legislation which will soon reach the Parliament includes some wonderfully inventive ideas. The whole system will be based on an ISP-based [...]

Friday’s Feathers

Last week I seem to have completely forgotten my own meme. But then it had rained and all our birds have disappeared off to new, albeit temporary, watering places.

Politically Correct Irish Joke

Donavan, while visiting Italy, met a sailor from Venice. Before long they found themselves in a tavern. After several hours of heavy drinking the Italian finally slid under the table. The Irishman staggered to his feet and announced,..”I’m the first guy who ever drank a Venetian blind!”

Swiss Spider Smuggler Sorted

German customs officials inspecting a Swiss car got a nasty shock when they discovered 164 large spiders and 45 boxes of cockroaches – the arachnids’ food for the journey. The trap-door spiders, most “as big as a fist”, were found wriggling around in boxes and plastic bags, said Markus Ueckert, a spokesman for the customs [...]

Generation Y… People born between 1983 and 1997 Why do we call the last group of people Generation Y? I had no idea until I saw this cartoon.
