Crash
Slow, methodical storytelling is perfect for this series of intertwined stories - not much more to say without spoiling it, but it’s beautifully put together.
Is your SatNav tracking you?
From the realms of “stupid burglers” here we have two guys who used their work vehicle to undertake some burglaries, not realising that it’s on-board satnav system was recording every journey (and therefore every house they hit!)
This is right up there with the Welsh burgler who was caught when he Left his DNA on a pear. Do these people not watch CSI?

Audioscrobbler Upgrades
Audioscrobbler have re-vamped their site, given it a modern new look and made it look a lot more, dare I say it, “professional” - oh, and rebranded it as “last.fm”
Audioscrobbler is what powers the “last 3 tracks” list in the sidebar, to see more of my musical taste click here
Maybe I should avoid rom-com’s
This evening I made one of my regular trips to the cinema - but my choice of film was a mistake for my mood.
Now, funny as “Bewitched” is in places, sitting in a fairly crowded cinema (mostly couples) on your own, watching a romantic comedy isn’t fun. It’s miserable. I should know.
Maybe I just wasn’t in the right frame of mind for Bewitched - but I’d already seen “Stealth” and the showing of “Crash” was too late - but it was a movie, or sitting at home feeling equally alone on a Friday night…
Bewitched
Maybe I just wasn’t in the right mood… it seemed like an interesting idea for a comedy set around the revival of a classic TV show, almost certainly a better bet than actually doing a remake of the show itself.
No matter how much fun they have with the “magic” - the film just doesn’t make you beleive in the characters enough to actually care…
It’s fun, but I beleive it could have been better.
Have the nutters gone too far…
Now, the whole Religion vs Evolution thing has been going on for decades - however, some “Christians” in America are now contesting the whole business of gravity - yes, you heard right - there are Christians who now don’t beleive in gravity, but in fact beleive that God is pushing everything down (and therefore away from him)

(yes, “The Onion” is an American Satirical website and magazine, so this shouldn’t be taken too seriously - in fact it’s a total joke - hope it fooled you!)
A couple of funnies for today
First up, the worlds worst women drivers, And just so I’m not acused of being sexist… Why women live longer.
To follow that - some cleverly photoshopped road signs from SomethingAwful.
