The bartender says, “Why the big pause?”

The giraffe says, “Do I have a choice?
A polar bear, a horse and a giraffe walk into a bar.
The bartender says, “What is this? Some kind of joke?”

A BOOZED-UP driver wrecked a $500,000 Lamborghini after a group of friends hired a fleet of supercars for a wedding.
The mates, in their late 20s, glugged down strong cider in a pub before racing off along a country lane in three 340km/h Lambo Murcielagos and a $270,000 Bentley Continental, The Sun reports.
But one lost control 600 metres from the pub and smashed into a tree.

It’s now a little over a month since I purchased my Nintendo Wii, in a pack along with Carnival Games and Beach Sports (and, of course, the included Wii Sports). I’m not much of a gamer person, not really using my PC for games and rarely using my Playstation 2, and once my X-Box consoles.
So what do I think? Well even though it’s been around for a while, I really enjoy the Wii. It’s definitely different from other consoles I’ve owned and not being a gamer, I found this a lot more enjoyable. It’s interactive and really gets you up and going. It’s nothing like the technology seen out of the X-Box 360 and Playstation 3, but if you’re not too bothered about graphics or the availablity of some of the higher level games, then the Wii’s great. Simply said, it’s a console for just a bit of fun.
I’m yet to purchase any additional games as I’m enjoying Wii Sports enough for now, and Beach Sports and Carnival Games don’t really excite me much. What I have purchased is a 3-in-1 controller set with a golf club, baseball bat and tennis raquet which adds a bit more realism to the games, but does make it a bit harder to use after being used to the remote.
So would I purchase Wii 2? I think the Wii is the kind of console that suits me. Except a Playstation 3 would let me play the new GTA, but hopefully it’s not too long until it’s available for PC - about 3 months in fact! Yep, I’m converted to Nintendo

Well, as most of you know I recently purchased a Subaru Liberty, which you can see here. Here’s a few pictures of some hot Libertys that are among my favorite 4GENs.

This is an extract from one of my favorite books, Daniel Quinn’s Ishmael. Although I took this extract from another blog, I figure it’s OK since he took it straight out of the book. Anyway, it introduces some really interesting views that form the basis of Ishmael, a great read.
With man gone, will there be hope for gorilla?
I was trying to puzzle out why life should be divided in this way, half of it interesting and pleasant and half of it boring and unpleasant. I had no concept of myself as a captive, it didn’t occur to me that anyone was preventing me from having an interesting and pleasant life. (…) It was in puzzling out such small matters as these that my interior life began - quite unnoticed.
CAPTIVITY
“As far as I know, no one specifically wants to destroy the world”
“And yet you do destroy it, each of you. Each of you contributes daily to the destruction of the world”
“Yes, that’s so”
“Why don’t you stop?”
“Frankly, we don’t know how.”
“You’re captives of a civilizational system that more or less compels you to go on destroying the world in order to live.”
“Yes, that’s the way it seems.”
“So. You are the captives - and you have made a captive of the world itself. That’s what’s at stake, isn’t it? - your captivity and the captivity of the world. (…) The world is not going to survive for very much longer as humanity’s captive. Does that need explication? (…) Many would be glad to release the world from captivity. This is what prevents them: They’re unable to find the bars of the cage.”
