Who says I’m eclectic?

Lene over at ‘The Seated View‘ had this on her blog today and I though I’d give it a go.

Not bad huh? And before anybody suggests otherwise, no I didn’t cheat. Hell, it was just a trivia quiz. And speaking of trivia quizzes, here’s my Fun Trivia profile to prove that I’m a trivia buff. I haven’t been playing much lately, but I’ll get back into it eventually.

TypePad Comments: Usually when folks say they are having trouble commenting it’s because the blog hosts are making some sort of changes to their system (I’m talking about all hosts, blogger, TP, WP the lot). So just in case you haven’t noticed (and you wouldn’t if you haven’t had more than 25 comments) TP now gives you the option to decide how many comments you want to display per page, the default is 25. If you get more than 25 comments, you’ll see a ‘Next’ button at the end of the comments. Just thought I’d let you know, since the TypePad people apparently decided not to let us in on the joke.

For those of you that are regular readers of Melissa’s blog, you would know that she recently had a couple of shopping carts come to visit with her. However what you may not know is that they were members of a travelling shopping cart circus that was in town for a few days…

Here is one of their more risky manoeuvres. From what I’ve read, this trick has cost the life of more than one member of the troupe (that’s how we spell it but you guys might prefer troop).

Oh, just a short note on yesterday’s post. Despite spending $24 million dollars a day on security for APUKE and despite Dubya bringing 600 of his best people over, including 150 Secret Service agents, to keep thing under control, a comedy show managed to actually join the motorcade and make it to Dubya’s hotel. The funny thing about it is that one of them was dressed as Osama bin Laden!

If you’re interested in reading about it, here’s the link. And here’s a link to an article about Dubya calling the APEC conference (that’s APEC with an A for Asia) OPEC by mistake.

Must have been a bit like this a few years ago….

Oh, and this just in!

I managed to get my hands on an exclusive photo of George Dubya deep in conversation with Vladimir Putin via an interpreter…
