Since it’s been touted as some of the best drama ever made, I guess The Wire is now trying to conquer the comedy market. Probably due to low funds or laziness, however, producers have clearly resorted to regurgitating old scenes, with a cheap laughter track added.
You’d think with all that success they’d be able to re-shoot the whole series and make it into a sitcom. This is what happens in a recession – unemployment and poor television. I think I’ll stick to the original.

No matter how bad a day or life you’re having, this video is sure to turn things around. Like a puppy, or someone tripping up in front of you, it’s nature’s visual Prozac. Try as you might, you simply cannnot help but be tickled by the sight of dozens of babies pulling the ’sour lemon face’.
I love how some of them think they have it covered, like, “What, sour? This is fine. This isn’t sour, this is…’ Only for them to suddenly recoil in a juddering fit. It’s a knee-jerk reaction that no-one can tame. Hang on, what’s that, did I hear someone say “Child cruelty”? Nonsense. They don’t HAVE to eat the fruit, do they?

You ever get the feeling that games designers are having a laugh at our expense, i mean, it must take days, if not weeks to program and design a game like this – What the HELL were they thinking?
This is ONE very weird little game, but strangely, highly addictive and rather pleasant to play! Drive the gay bus to the gay bar & ram as many sailors as you can along the way – Yep, a gay-bashing killing fest EXTREME! Woo Hoo !

Ok, so the new Star Wars films were no where near as good as the original ones. I know that, you know that, and George Lucas – if you gave him a few glasses of wine – would admit that as well. Despite them not being as legendary, there’s something all Star Wars films have in common. There are a lot of characters, and they can get fairly complicated what with all those planet names and politics.
This is a novel way to keep things informative, fun, and fresh. By integrating a choral Queen classic with the well-known franchise you have a decidedly high-pitched re-cap of the recent films. And what’s more, you can listen to this, and get straight to watching episodes 4-6 and enjoy some real quality films.

There are some stories that just melt the heart. There’s something about this old guy, his trumpet, the amazing tale – even the sternest of people would wilt at such a story. Even Hollywood in their huge network of War films haven’t come up with an idea as resounding as this. It’s impermeable to anyone from Steven Spielberg to your emotionally stunted mate.
Then again, it could be a load of tripe of course. He probably doesn’t even remember fighting in the war, and that hat he’s wearing looks pretty suspect. How would a German know the word for trumpet? Hm? Well – whatever the truth, I’m prepared to believe it. Even if the sniper didn’t hear his slightly dodgy tunes because he was too busy getting shot, I’m up for going along with what this old man says. He’ll dine out on this memory til the day he dies, telling anyone who’ll listen. I bet his grandchildren wish it had never happened.

…..But, in this case, they will also be getting extremely wet, or, if they dont have breathing apparatus – Dying! The world has changed recently – We can’t mock blacks, Jews, and Mexicans anymore, but fortunately, we still have fat people!
So there you are, fat people are now the only objects of our hate left, well, maybe if Fox news has their way, pretty soon we’ll be able to openly kill Muslims on the street and claim self-defence. I can hardly wait! But anyway….back to the fatty on a submarine, submerging FAST!

It is true – Apple products are undoubtedly a triumph of marketing. Yeah they’re ace and sleek and lovely and easy to use…but we probably think we need the products more than we actually do. So, I present to you, the latest non-released, soon to be packaged and advertised product from Steve Jobs: the iFad.
Of course, you almost certainly did these types of things when you were 3 and sure, it all looks pretty facile and basic. But not when that lovely Apple logo gets its grip on you. Look directly into its smooth curves and, Hey Presto, a product has instant intrinsic value. Im pre-ordering mine now.

It takes some balls (no pun intended) to do this. It takes even more balls to do this when you’re a set and a game down. I guess being a Romanian tennis fan is more thrilling than being a British tennis fan. No amount of ‘Come on Tim’ could ever make Henman win a match. He was British – forever condemned to quarters and semis. I think we prefer failure as a nation, that way we can grumble and moan more.
But had he done things like this, just maybe we would have more fond memories of good old Tim. He was a bit bland wasn’t he? I salute you, Hanescu. I like the philosophy that, whatever the score, sport should be an exciting thing. I bet Llodra doesn’t have the same enthusiasm.
