About time there was a positive viral video about Hilary.

Dublin City Council Announces Covert Police State

Yes, this guy is for real, and he is talking about Dublin, Ireland.



Covert operations, huh?

It's from The Alex Jones Show an American syndicated news/talk show broadcast from Austin, Texas. Alex is known as a bit of a conspiracy theorist, and calls himself an infowarrior.

Yup.

A little taste of Jimi

We covered Are You Experienced a couple of weeks ago on the show, which brought this ad to mind, Pepsi wins!

Digiloops

Just as websites and videos go viral on the W, so does language, adding ies to the end off a word has been a recent trend (although it might now be so last yearsies, if so, byesies))
Heart is a current one doing the rounds, I heart this and I heart that as you do, and Rapture Ponies has just claimed it, (controversial)

Fads are off course nothing new, but maybe they could do with a new name for the digital age, (and why not) In the spirit of invention I offer Digiloop, in honour of the king of fads, the Hula Hoop.

For example, digilooping right now is the word heart, (and the word swede obv.)

Hmmm...perhaps it's a bit lame...any other suggestions?

I'm keeping "on the W" BTW

Writers strike ends

The Hollywood writers strike is over, though not all shows are going back in to production.

If you are used to watching your favourite shows on RTE this won't make any difference to you as they tend to be pretty random about what they show and when.

I heard on Newstalk this morning that Irish Cinema owners have been experiencing a bumper time and have suggested that the strike is actually helping them, (though what they planned to do if the movies ran out I have no clue, silly people)

It will be a while before production returns to normal so in the meantime I think I am going to start watching The Wire, from Season One on DVD.
