Apparently the WordPress upgrade completely borked my pages (like “about”) and categories as well. Gee, thanks, WordPress! So, don’t bother clicking any of the links near the title bar, they probably just won’t work. And since I have 1700+ entries I really can’t be bothered to go in and edit each bloody entry manually. So, I think I need to put WordPress in the list of things I’m not too impressed with lately.
Things I have learned recently…
I had a good look at my site yesterday and discovered a number of things!
Think of it as an opportunity to wear your heart on your sleeve.
I Heart Guts! Plushes and T-shirts (and more) for the anatomy fan on your Xmas list.
He’s going to have a tough time finding mitts and gloves to fit him.
Ever wonder what it looks like on X-ray when someone lets a homemade firecracker blow up in his hand? Wonder no more.
I think “serendipity” is the right word, I really do…
New York’s Serendipity 3 restaurant is famous for having the most expensive dessert in the world, a $25,000 chocolate concoction with lots of edible gold and served with a gold-lined goblet. However hygiene inspectors also found that the restaurant’s unadvertised extras include cockroaches, flies, sewage and rodent droppings. Yum!
Captchas, done right.
Tired of brain-dead “retype what’s in the box above” captchas? Register for an account at the home of the Quantum Random Bit Generator to be quizzed on your knowledge of complex math equations instead! Note that you get a captcha of varying length and complexity every time.
From Hello Kitty to Hello Titty?
A new series of marketing characters is hitting the shops in Japan this year, and this is what they look like – Meet the Milk-chans. Breasts, five of them. Colors vary, but they appear to be all the same size, and in the tradition of Kogepan or Hello Kitty each character has its own personality. Don’t hesitate to visit the official Funwari Milk-chan web site for more bosomy cuteness in Japanese. Enjoy!
The spoils of failure.
Ousted Citigroup chief Prince will receive $12.5 million bonus for losing billions. That’s pretty good. I’m sure that if I were given the right kind of incentives I could lose even more than he’s managed to!
China photos update
I’ve been spending a lot of time reviewing and editing my photos from China (cropping, adjusting colors, etc.) and so I’ve removed the old photos that were on Facebook. I have replaced them with location-specific albums also on Facebook, but which are made up of higher-quality photos. Links to follow…
