  • At the restaurant

    A Scotsman and a Jew went to a restaurant. After a hearty meal, the waitress came by with the inevitable bill. To the amazement of all, the Scotsman was heard to say, "I'll pay it!" and he actually did.
    The next morning's newspaper carried the news item:
    "JEWISH VENTRILOQUIST FOUND MURDERED IN BLIND ALLEY."

    Apparently this joke caused a lot of controversy in America and was banned in many places.

  • The time-travelling twins.

    Everyone knows the pecking order in a family has everything to do with age. The oldest sibling usually rules the roost. But what if you get cheated out of the title because of Daylight Saving Time?
    Peter Sullivan Cirioli was dubbed "Baby A" at WakeMed Cary when he arrived early Sunday morning.

    “Yes, Peter was born first, it was at 1:32 a.m.,” mother Laura Cirioli said.

    Thirty-four minutes later, Peter's twin sister, Allison Raye Cirioli, known as "Baby B," made her entrance into the world.

    Because of Daylight Saving Time, Allison's time of birth was 1:06 a.m., which makes her 26 minutes older than her brother even though he was born first.

    “We just never even thought about it until after he was born and then we realized it was going to happen. It was really kind of amazing,” Laura Cirioli said.
    The proud mother and father said they don't really care who was born first, they are just glad to have two healthy babies. They do suspect the daylight savings predicament will be fodder for sibling rivalry.

    “We'll let them work that out between themselves. I don't want to get into the middle of it,” Jason Cirioli said.
    Peter and Allison were expected to leave the hospital Tuesday night.

  • Online Films

    Some recent films I've been watching online [I can't remember the titles though]. I've really enjoyed all of these, mainly because of their strangeness I suppose.

    A science-fiction film set entirely in a log-cabin. No aliens, no spaceships, no time travel, no special effects - just half a dozen people talking.

    A Korean science-fiction film where a giant walking mutant fish monster attacks and kidnaps the daughter of a narcoleptic shopkeeper.

    A very strange Korean film [I do remember the title of this though, it's called, 'Save The Green Planet'] about an eccentric office worker who thinks that the head of the large company is actually an alien; so he kidnaps him and tortures him.

    A Japanese film about a haunted train.

    A Japanese film about a magical notebook whereby if you write down someone's name in it they will die.

    A Korean film about a serial killer who only attacks every four years, on February 29th.
