“Tickle Him!”:

Recently Maxin magazine conducted an interview with the guy who provides the voiceovers for, amongst other things, Mortal Kombat. You know, the scary deep voiced intro’s and fight ending “Finish Him!”

As part of the interview the persuaded him to record a few not so scary phrases in the same voice … a choine couple being the previously mentioned “Tickle Him!”, the slightly camp “Flawless…Ensemble” and the glorious “Epic FAIL!”

Now all I need to do it figure out what to do with them 🙂

The BBC has posted a couple of quizes today, one on sporting rules and the other on sitcoms.

I managed a pair of pathetic scores of 1 on sporting rules (!) and 5 on Sitcoms . . . surely you can all do better?

Hubdub.com – free money ;-)

A friend recommended a site to me a couple of days ago, www.hubdub.com

The basic idea is to bet on the outcome of various news and sports stories . . . the fun thing is you can go nuts with it because there’s no real money involved. You can also set-up your own bets and publish them.  Harmless fun or another route into chaos, drugs and organised crime 😉

10 Gadgets That Have No Business Using a Jet Engine: Clearly, this article has the wrong title … it should obviously be called “10 things you should go and do with a jet engine, NOW!”.  Rather unsurprisingly Top Gear features in 2 vids 😉

Kayakers’ 300ft dam drop attacked:

Clearly Welsh Water are just being killjoys here.  No one else is allowed to use the lake so there was no chance of other people being hurt and, if the guys doing it had bent themselves in the process then it’s their own problem as they knew they were doing something that was, shall we say, a bit daft 😉

Looks damn good fun though …
