*beep*

Wow, sorry guys but I've kind of hit a total computer use burnout. This can partially be blamed on excessive email and chat correspondence. One side effect of moving here is that I now have a whole lot of penpals and sometimes the planets align so that a lot of them write me all in the same couple of days.

Until I return proper like, enjoy the website for the video I last posted "Nature, Red in Tooth & Claw". There you can see two more videos (and another new one by the tenth) as well as the really fun fake biography of the narrator.

Tata!

"The African Savannah...

Thanks to my swimming with fever (he's an okay guy) all of yesterday, the comic will probably be delayed until tomorrow night - though I shall try!

Until then, enjoy this magnificent nature short which features what I've always felt such shows are missing -bigoted, sexualized gender politics.

Enjoy!

Bits and pieces of the city from last Saturday

On my way down from Tottenham court road I passed through St. Martin in the fields (the church is undergoing serious reconstruction, so I didn't bother with any pictures - though one day I shall).
I was almost annoyed that I'd just managed to miss an exhibit on contemporary Canadian design, I would have liked to see how the embassy would be portraying us to the outside world...to take the stance of the other vis a vis Canada. the Meanwhile, here's a couple more of the Canadian Embassy...See the flag nearest? I feel like such fool, I had to actually think to remember that it was for Nunavut. Just a second, but a second too long I should think!
Eventually I ambled away and came across these burning braziers.
But the only clue I could find as to what their adjoining building was for or who owned it was this flag. Ten internet points to whoever might tell me what it represents!I then passed the Texan embassy and nearly shat myself before I realized it was a restaurant.


Dropping south, past the ICA along the MALL and into St. James Park, I came across this monument to all the fallen London police officers.The book is updated each year with not only names but descriptions of the officers. It was nice, in a way, to see that the lists for the past few years were not terribly long ones.Tomorrow there just might be a new comic, if you cross your legs and pray the requisite amount of times.

Few things are sweeter...

...than when the conversation behind you, on the bus, paints the outline of a short script for you. I had that joy yesterday on the way up through Camden from Tottenham Court Road.

Well, if you are a writer then this is a sweet thing!

THE REST OF YOU HAVE A NEW KOMIC

Also, for the first time in at least a decade, Whoopi Goldberg has not only come to my attention but greatly amused me as she tackles a co-host on The View...
