Argh I have forgotten how to do a link/photo link/URL link (again!)

by Znethru @ 29 Apr. 2008 - 14.23:46

Please provide an easy to understand guide to the above!

I made the front cover of yet another magazine (yawn)

Charly and Josh - new stars of YouTube

by Znethru @ 29 Apr. 2008 - 00.25:10


This brother and sister duo have made a number of short hilarious videos. The humour is very dry, particularly British and IMHO yoho extremely funny!

Does it get any better than this...

by Znethru @ 28 Apr. 2008 - 00.17:48


...Infotainmentwise?

Now this is what I call Infotainment!

Fact.

Are you formica or against?

by Znethru @ 24 Apr. 2008 - 23.54:19

Are you formica or against?

Toyota or Real?

Real Madrid or Pretend?

Basket of fruit or currencies?

Current affairs or bun?

witty ripostes: sarcastic or facetious?

by Znethru @ 24 Apr. 2008 - 23.48:44

Matt Hopps asked this question:

Anyone got any good ideas on how to start blogs? I'm sure that I'd blog a lot, lot more because I've lots of topics to blog about, I'm just not very good at starting these things...

My answer du soir?

Yes. Take a subject at which you are expert or inexpert and write about it in great detail (or in not such great detail).

Other blogging folk gave more sensible answers which can be read here:

http://matthopps.blog.co.uk/2008/04/24/ways-of-starting-4090964

More irrelevant mathematical advice.

by Znethru @ 24 Apr. 2008 - 21.44:22

As far as I am concerned, all numbers can be halved, doubled or subtracted from.

(n.b. this often makes a good witty riposte to any conversationalist who gives you an answer that includes a number.)

HT8 - the solution (?)

by Znethru @ 24 Apr. 2008 - 21.41:22

Just reporting in that HT8 (as far as I know) didn't take place today at 3pm. It has now been deleted from my diary via the heavily scribbling out with biro method.

OK I got busted

by Znethru @ 24 Apr. 2008 - 21.39:54

(from posting on a group)

My utterly irrelevant question du soir is:

What is the longest number of consecutive days that you have worn the same shoes for.

(Men can give answers in terms of months, years etc to save time with large numbers).

HT8; unsolved mysteries of the Western World.

by Znethru @ 24 Apr. 2008 - 12.16:55

I have long considered it a good idea to be able to read one's own handwriting.

However, I have today become rather undone by this talent. I can clearly read that today (at circa 3pm) HT8 is due to occur.

Perhaps someone "on-bolge" can unravel this Sphinx-like mystery?

Beery Theory

by Znethru @ 23 Apr. 2008 - 22.40:31

If you’re not there,
And I’m not here;
Where O where,
Will we keep the beer?

If I’m not me,
And you’re not you;
Where will we be,
If we run out of brew?

If I’m not dark,
And you’re not pale;
How shall we do,
For bottles of ale?

If it’s not day now,
Nor is it night;
Then wonders I,
Where’s all the light?

The law of the supermarket

by Znethru @ 23 Apr. 2008 - 22.32:14

The law of the supermarket dictates oft,
That one should buy veggies hard and fruities soft.

The law of the supermarket oft dictates,
That one push a trolley full of apples, figs and dates.

O laws and supermarkets were made to be broke,
And you can’t crack an egg without taking the yolk,
So don’t sit around and drink gallons of coke!

Just visit the institute once a week,
And your fridgified outlook won’t feel so bleak;
Though you’re unlikely to have an experiential peak,
And you might make your exit a mouse-like squeak.

The supermarket’s there to exchange your pound,
Into something rather profound;
That grows on trees or comes out of the ground,
That’s square or rectangular or randomly round,
That was previously lost (and better not found),
It sells food by the metre, kilo or pound,
You know, Of this supermarket, me; I like the sound.

bright reflection (is the password)

Here is another poetry challenge for bolgers. Let's try to make up a nonsense-type poem over at the following website:

I have already started the poem off. Normal rules apply i.e. do not write two consecutive lines!

A highly Infotaining Website

Is Life an Experiment?

by Znethru @ 20 Apr. 2008 - 00.19:41

Let us consider Life to be a series of experiments.

Do most experiments succeed or fail?

(I am not talking here about our lives being some kind of divine experiment), but instead, the objectives we try to achieve as we attempt to make progress with our own lives.

We try A it fails; B, failure again; C, partial success; D, greater success still; E resounding success!

Conclusion? Go with your 5th thought.

sleep, ants, rumours etc.

by Znethru @ 19 Apr. 2008 - 00.35:25

Is it true that when everyone goes to sleep, the ants take over?

Ze Doc von Hollywood

by Znethru @ 15 Apr. 2008 - 23.49:15

Outrageously silly film but do I detect another feelgood factor going on? All this feeling good may have the effect of producing a good feeling.

Ze Big Fat Greek Wedding

by Znethru @ 15 Apr. 2008 - 00.50:27

As mentioned b4, I am partial to feelgood factor films and have this one playing over and over on the PVR currently - like Ceej's Sky-Plus only not affiliated to pay-for-view channels.

An ideal background to blogging and (no doubt) other computer-related activities.

Eric conveys an emotion

by Znethru @ 07 Apr. 2008 - 00.46:17

Do any of you know this website? I saw it 5 years ago, again 3 years ago and dropped into it again this evening.

Click some of the 'filled emotions' on the left hand side of the website to enjoy Eric's work. He's a talented actor and has a great sense of humour!

Olympic Torch

by Znethru @ 06 Apr. 2008 - 00.22:31

The BBC have published an interesting article on the Olympic Torch. This has nothing to do with the political side of things!

"...the flame has been ignited by the sun's rays on the ancient site of Olympia in Greece."

News Game with a little imagination.

by Znethru @ 04 Apr. 2008 - 00.55:54

Let's play another game of "Earlier Today..."

Each bolger must write one word only (consecutively), which continues to make a logical sentence, but must not actually complete the sentence by providing the final word. You can have as many goes as you like, but someone else has to write a word after your word first!!!

Whoever writes the final word "loses" the game - everyone else has won (for the time being, anyway!)

Here we go: Earlier

STREAM LINE NET - webspace - appears like a good deal to me

by Znethru @ 04 Apr. 2008 - 00.43:45

I have discovered what I believe to be a good web space provider:

http://www.streamlinenet.co.uk/hu.php

Under £28 for 2 years and offers easily enough for a basic website!

You are what you eat? Are you?

by Znethru @ 03 Apr. 2008 - 23.22:04

I eat a lot of apples. So, I'm an apple, then?

There was an old lady from Rhyde,
Who ate so many apples, she died.
The fruit the lamented
consumed was fermented,
Making cider inside 'er inside.

Can anyone send me an easy step-by-step guide of how to do the above?

Late night Googolic nonsense

by Znethru @ 03 Apr. 2008 - 00.55:44

You can't argue with facts, but most people I hear talk, don't know how to construct an effective argument.

Furthermore, 90% of their words can be dismissed (not to say destroyed) with a tiny bit of research on Google.

Ah well, virtue is its own reward, and staying at home gathers no moss.
