‘Tis the season to be jolly…
And so from Mrs BetterComms and me a jolly fantastic 25th of December, whatever it may mean in particular for you.
Some snippets for today:
Follow Santa’s journey
Rudolph’s nose gives off an infrared signal similar to a missile launch, according to the North American Aerospace Defense Command. This is what allows the military organization to track Santa’s journey through the sky with the same satellites it uses to track more insidious nasties… In the Adelaide Hills we are at DefCon Santa!
This year’s top Google searches — what do they tell us about ourselves?
When someone mentions Johann Herder you’d better sit up and take notice — they know their philosophers! Herder introduced the term ‘zeitgeist’ – and Google is the latest mirror to show us the intellectual, moral, and cultural climate of our time.
Pink’s Aussie sheep blue
And from the ‘How To Win Friends And Influence Neighbours Department’… she won’t even be going as far west of Sydney as Homebush next year but that hasn’t stopped US pop singer Pink lecturing us on how we treat our sheep.
Smoke signals health warning
For years the parents of cannabis users have seen a link between their child’s use of cannabis and mental illness. Now evidence is emerging that they are right.
RØDE Podcaster microphone
From the “What Lee has on his wish-list for 2007 Department” — yummy! Any one feeling particularly generous at the moment????
Two superb Christmas videos
Two videos that defy belief — keep your volume up for a musical item and a mistletoe surprise
Rub a dub dub, a drunk in a tub
And finally, a P-plate driver has been charged with drink-driving after he was caught towing a friend in a porcelain bath behind his ute. One for the Darwin Awards…
Enjoy your break and may your God go with you.
