:: Any Fule Kno ::

Bit of a posting drought as, like Dr Rufus, I'm grappling with a time-consuming new job. Never mind, here are a few vignettes:

  • Linux looks to Hilton for exposure - one of my favourite from this year's crop of April foolery. Snopes and Wikipedia have also come up with long lists of reported hoaxes.

  • Not fooled? The Beeb also produced a list of apparent hoaxes that turned out to be true. Ananova's story about a phallic monument also fits into this category as I first read it on 31st March...

  • Madonna, that embodiment of the word "joke", is apparently now unable to understand a word her kids are saying. It's not the first time she's been afflicted with bad translations, but maybe it will encourage Guy to set one of his sub-standard gangster flicks in the Parisian banlieues. I venture to suggest he wouldn't come anywhere close to the La HaĆ®ne.

Um... I guess that's it. Short and sharp like this afternoon's hailstorm. I'm off to meet Tigger for our monthly outing:

YAY!
