I was a little miffed at hearing of a recent paydeal. The Daily Mash sums it up quite nicely. The mash could very well be my new favouritest site on the web. Oh and have this too!

Ah, the power of the internet. I love that you can read about happenings all over the world and then caste judgement over them. The story that I'm linking to is a great escape from the jaws of a shark. Whilst I'm pleased to hear that the victim managed to evade a spiky end, I'm a bit ROFL about the way its been reported. For instance I love the fact that the people in the water had discussed previously what to do should they ever be shark attacked.

"We've talked about it a lot, " Glen said. "The policy is if it goes for you, then you go for it."

Did they happen to discuss this in a boardroom? Policy? Fek that. I hate the way business speak is invading every day speech. The bonus to this piece of journalistic delight is the final quote.

Just watching Undercover Mum on ITV (which is a bit of a shock). Interestingly, they are showing footage of an investigation they made of the beef sold in the local Bath Wetherspoons. Apparently (and allegedly, for you legal beagles) they are selling something slightly more exotic than the customers might think. There is less Mooo for your GBP and more Zebu. Zebu is a tropical version of cattle whose meat isn't quite as palatable as domestic british beef. So what this pub chain is doing is selling interbred cattle products to the masses without disclosing its origins. I wonder how many other chains are doing this?

Its great to hear that, after much pressure from web-based chocolate lovers, Cadbury is bringing back the mighty Wispa.

The world has officially imploded! HMV have bought out Fopp, retaining only six of its stores in the UK. Hello to overpriced CDs and DVDs. Amazon and CDWow must be rejoicing at the news. And they wonder why there is a slump in sales.

Ms Kaplinsky's career summed up in one image! Her talents are to be extended to a new 60 second bulletin.

Latest shocking story on the Beeb is Catherine Tate to be Doctor Who's new companion. Catherine Tate is little short of awful. I can't believe that they've spent the last three years making Dr Who a brilliant Saturday night staple just to p*ss it all up the wall like this.

Baggage handler John Smeaton turned up on several news channels over the weekend. He was on the spot when terrorists attacked Glasgow airport. Seeing the driver of the jeep attacking the police, John decided to wade in. His retelling of the events on BBC 24 were astonishing - and, amidst the horror, extremely refreshing. Somone has set up a site to pay honour to the guy, good on him.
