Driftwood | Tragic Comedy

Washed up on the shores of my PC.

In the spirit of Monty Python & The Holy Grail intro, "Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked have been sacked," comes this notice.
Beautiful pictures of a fairly clever notion, holding the sun.
My new work watch to go with my new work hat.
Clever advertising uses for eggs.
Very entertaining improv musical at the food court.
Fantastic images of a complete rainbow.

Stand-up (sort of) of the week: Lewis Black

Christmas Post #4: I Want A Piece Of Uranus

A former boss of mine once said something similar to me but not in those exact words. This site claims to be selling the planet Uranus. The text is presented very tongue in cheek but they do appear to be actually selling stuff; bumper stickers and mousepads that claim "I own Uranus". Go »
