Wheat and Weeds – Hoist By Their Own Petard. It’s only January but we may have the feel-good headline of the year:. Vagina Monologues cancelled because it Excludes Women Without Vaginas. It seems trans-gender persons feel excluded, so no more of this talk will be tolerated. Jan 16th, 2015. Middot; Comments RSS. People and Current Events. Geography and Foreign Affairs.

Sniffle XLXIII: A Bright Light in a Bad Situation Edition. I’ve often rhapsodized on the wonder of plucky, western Australia (and New Zealand, yes) floating around in the middle of a big ocean surrounded by…well, the sorts of countries that the families of the lost flight MH370 have had to deal with for the past two and a half weeks (at the time of writing). So let’s skip repeating ourselves. Then this, at the very bottom of an article in The Times. Mar 25th, 2014. Middot; Comments RSS. I work with a str...

Absolutely the Funniest Item of the Day CCCX. Peter sent me this last week and it is amazing. Keep watching, because the first part is funny but the punchline is in the second part.

I wrote this post over a month ago, but then got lazy and didn’t finish the last couple of links (still haven’t, but honestly I think I’ve got the basics covered), but then this morning I saw this Tell Mama link posted below, which made me think a) Oh that’s hilarious, who COULD they mean? And b) I guess the story isn’t. Over so I should just post the damned thing, and not let all that archiving for the ol’ External Memory Drive go to waste. Anyway, back to the 16th of May…. On Twitter, is so interesting...

Watch big and make sure it’s in HD. For that Stock Footage video. The best story today. A]n 89-year-old veteran was reported missing by his care home after being told that he couldn’t go to Normandy. …. Sussex police say that the man, who has not been named, was reported missing last night by a nursing home in Hove. He had gone out at 10.30am wearing a grey macintosh and jacket with his war medals.

No Godzilla Jokes Were Made in the Making of This Flood Defense Video. Cool (and omg I wouldn’t spend too much time standing in those tunnels):. ABC News (Oz) – TOKYO FLOOD PREVENTION. Fifty metres beneath the teeming megacity of Tokyo is an underworld river system – 6.4km of tunnels, colossal water tanks, massive pillars, giant pumps that remove 200 tonnes of floodwater every second. It’s an engineering marvel built to protect Tokyo against the increasing threat of flooding. Oct 27th, 2014.
