I recently rediscovered ZeFrank, and this TED talk is very funny indeed. Watch it now, filthy humans.

it’s that time of year again

When every young man’s fancy turns to the WWDC and the goodies El Steve will unleash upon the world.

The rumour-mill is working at full tilt to churn out bland iPhone and iPod Touch Tablet rumours based around Intel’s Atom (hey, remember the good old days when we had to make up rumours without the benefit of a CPU-giant’s product roadmap?) and the event itself is actually sold out for the first time ever.

None of this concerns me, however, quite so much as the big news of this year’s WWDC - Mac OS X 10.6. I’m not expecting much, it’s barely been six months since Leopard arrived, after all. What I am on tender-hooks for though, is the age-old question of which cat they’re going to name it after!

I’m pinning my hopes on Ocelot again (I have to be right eventually!), though Lion is surely the favourite. Extremely long odds on moving to OS 11.0 with a different naming scheme altogether.

how to recover after an exam: 4 easy steps

  1. Go to the gym on the way home. (you’ve been bad - punish yourself accordingly)
  2. Whip up a pizza really quickly using dough and sauce you made a few days ago. (that’s some good planning ahead, well done!)
  3. Take a good long shower while the pizza cooks. (oh yeah baby, nice and soapy)
  4. Watch the new episode of House and eat your delicious pizza. (mmmm, pizza…)

Could Chilli, the 6ft 6in Friesian bullock, be Britain's tallest bovine? - Times Online


That is a fucking terrifying cow. I can only imagine it got that tall on a diet of raw human flesh and its keepers are too scared to speak up.
