  • I'm all foxy. Firefoxy that is

    I've just gone Firefox. It's kinda cool. And I got to change my home page. And its underlining my spelling mistakes! (Yes yes I know. I've made a mistake.)

    Anyway. I'm off out tonight. Just polished my shoes and about to Tux up.

    Ten points for anyone who spots me on Telly

  • News, Bombs, America, London and Paris

    I was watching the news and was impressed by this article

    A US television news presenter refused to lead her bulletin with the latest Paris Hilton story, then screwed up, shredded and attempted to set fire to the script on air.

    Mika Brzezinski, co-presenter of MSNBC's Morning Joe programme, refused to read out the story of the celebrity socialite's release from jail ahead of items on Iraq and developments at the White House.

    In a scene reminiscent of Paddy Chayefsky's classic film Network, it shows Ms Brzezinski repeatedly refusing to read the Hilton script and arguing with her co-presenters about its place as the lead item.

    She told viewers: 'I hate it and I don't think it should be our lead.'

    Hasn't the news gone doolally if an item about Paris Hilton is the top story... above bombs in Iraq.
    And in this country, what with car bombs in London, we can still be celebrity obsessed. Rightfully, the car bomb news is top story in the papers!!! But I cant help wondering if this is because the Celebs havent done anything newsworthy of late. I wonder how the celebs feel about that. No Paris Hilton on the front Page?

    One Paper had the lead question..... "Where is the next bomb?"

    Perhaps Paris Hilton will wear one just to get back on the front page! (And will anyone miss her?)
