Are your tubes full of enormous material?

Was gonna just post this on my del.icio.us feed but its too damn good to get overlooked there. According to this article at metro.co.uk, thousands of people in Japan have been (ahem) ‘fleeced’ into buying neatly coiffured lambs they thought were poodles. Entire flocks of lambs were shipped over from the UK and Australia to Japan by an internet company and marketed as the latest ‘must have’ accessory. But the scam was only spotted after a leading Japanese actress said her ‘poodle’ didn’t bark and refused to eat dog food.

So, carefully study the images above and see if can spot which is lamb, and which is poodle. And, please, no ’sheepdog’ jokes.

Great pop tune from the UK - Sexy in Latin by Little Man Tate. I love the lyrics and Mark will no doubt appreciate the chick in the video.

Available on iTunes if you are so inclined. I know I was.

You can’t beat the big window shopping experience that is Fry’s but it’s also dangerous. Take tonight: I went just to look around, enjoy the ambience etc and find they are selling a 250Gb external hard drive for $60 after rebate. Now I don’t really need one, but it’s $60. For 250Gb. Yeah, $60. So I bought it.
