This is truly weird. 'TIME-TRAVELER' BUSTED FOR INSIDER TRADING. Although the fact that he's turned 800 dollars into 350 million USD is impressive.

There's something funny going on with my blogger account. [edit] Just fixed it - sorry for the commentary.

So here's a go at posting using the new category icons. Eventually I'll get around to making the "discuss" function work.

Finally - it works. All pages are now republished with this new template. All I need to do now is start posting using the new post icons. See the key to the categories in the column on the right.

Apologies. I've just had a clear out on my server. This means that this page is temporarily plagued by those nasty little red x icons. This will be rectified asap. Carlton

I get to see quite a lot of sites in my job but none quite like tokyoplastic. Simply stunning. Please remember to view with sound turned way up.

If you take a look around the rest of my site (just click on the car on the top right of the page) you'll see that I've had a bit of a redesign. I'm pretty pleased with it so far but I've spotted a couple of bugs already. This page will be redesigned in the very near future - tonight if I can. I'm aiming to make this page far more hard working, with better navigation to the rest of the site for a start. Enjoy. Carlton

This could be good. Prince records tribute to Jimi Hendrix. Or it could be very, very bad. But with Bootsy Collins and George Clinton and Earth, Wind and Fire involved I'm hoping it will be great.

When I saw this ad I must admit I was repulsed by the way the dog 'emerged' from the guys mouth. I'm not usually a prude but I'm not surprised so many people called up the ad watchdogs to complain. Its a shame though, the idea was pretty good. British 'dog breath' ad axed

Shamelessly lifted from Pixelsurgeon... Jeremy Eagle Home Page. I like the way these sculptures play on accepted values and turn them on their head. I wonder if he can do anything with pineapples?

It has to be said that Liverpool are my team. This win against Spurs could see us salvage something from the Premiership and may even get us into the Champions League. Come on the 'Pool.

Britons spent £19.7bn on beer last year. In this report it states that South Africa could overtake Ireland in the "who drinks the most stout" category. Although I'm guessing this is because South Africa has a much larger population.
Hmmm, Guiness!

Giant lab construction begins but rumours that its a site for Mercedes Hub cap construction are unfounded. NB. New building looks like a big alloy wheel.

If you're into Dan Dare or just love well crafted illustrations, this link is for you. Radebaugh: The Future We Were Promised. The Fifties had a wonderful view of the future, its a shame some of these visions didn't make it into reality.

Frantic bidding for film poster. Howard Hughes film "The Outlaw" caused quite a stir in its day. Its easy to see why when you see the poster. Pretty tame though by todays standards.
