High brow / Low brow
Ok, Two very different but entertaining time wasters/online activities.
The first one probably couldn`t get any higher browed.
it goes by the name of "Planarity" and would be well placed in a mensa exam.

If the instructions baffle you, then i`m sure you aint alone.
You gotta worry about people who use the word "vertices".
Any way move the dots so the black lines dont cross.
The second one is a little less taxing.
Its the now famous "south park studio" in which you can create your own south park characters or give yourself a south park make over

Can i get an amen ?
A critical analysis of probably the most widely sampled drum break in electronica`s history.
From NWA to the backbone beat of drum and bass to Squarepusher to Jeep adverts and beyond.
This documentary charts the path of 6 seconds of pure soul rhythm taken from the Winston`s 1969 b-side amen brother.
And questions the legality of ownership, copyright and its relationship with cultural expression.

Just to update you Google Earth`ers
I found this forum Google Earth Community
Now these guys take it to another level altogether.
If your after links to the seven great wonders of the world. then browse this and download from the blue link ' open placemark'
Also ( and this is the next level shit ), if you want to see, and i quote " a MAN throwing STICK to DOG --highest resolution!" you can also find it within these forums.
Apparently the man ( and dog )in question have been identified.

Robbie Williams to release reggae album !
Oh yes my friends. After 'mastering' Numanesque electro-pop with chart topper Radio, & putting Sinatra to shame with 'Swing..', the Robster has made an album in a lilting reggae stylee.
Say those "lucky" few who've heard it, "It sounds very much like early Bob Marley."
& no, I'm not making this up.
Hope he bootpolishes his face & grows dreads to cap the illusion.
It was in the SUN so it must be true

Were not afraid
There is a reason that i haven`t said anything about the recent attacks on London.
It strikes very close to home.
Even though i have been living in Canada now for quite some time, the memories of four wonderful years spent living within spitting distance from Kings Cross are still very vivid in my mind.
I used the Picadily line from Kings Cross every day,
I`ve sat on busses bound for Russel Square more times than i can remember.
My wife and i have stayed in hotels on Upper Woburn Place.

This is rapidly turning into my lastest addiction, bumper ball is still up there tho` .
I downloaded this the other day and have been "spying " on people ever since. One of my work mates tells me that this has been around for ages , so excuse me if its old and your already bored of it.
Its a personal version of google maps and satellite imagery of the earth , in Google earth you can put place markers on any important locations ie, your home , your work ,your nearest branch of vera burger, dogtown, the peoples republic of kitsilano, tour d`argent , south bronx , where ever really. and then zoom in to these places from space , or go on a sight seeing trip. go knock your self out.

Army Surplus
For those of you who know me quite well, you will be aware of my penchant for combat/cargo trousers/pants.
This, i would like to point out, has nothing what so ever to do with any strange military training that you think i may have been on.
Or, for that matter, any fixation with armed combat on my behalf, which is yet to manifest itself.
They just go well with black, my favoured colour of T shirts and hoodies.
I also like having loads of pockets in which to lose my keys in.
But after seeing these garments, i can feel a necessary purchase coming on.
