Nice BMW ad that says you can speak to the windscreen and it will automatically pass on your words of wisdom as an instant message to other drivers. Lots of added minor jokes in the text. (developed by Dr Hans Frei etc)

Telegraph has an article on us using Paris to hold the opening ceremony of the olympics to save cash, plus farming out the minority sports to them.

Mail on Sunday has one about being charged for barbecues because of carbon emissions!

Worrying thing is that the government might read it and think it a good idea!

#8: The Left-Handed Whopper
In 1998 Burger King published a full page advertisement in USA Today announcing the introduction of a new item to their menu: a "Left-Handed Whopper" specially designed for the 32 million left-handed Americans. According to the advertisement, the new whopper included the same ingredients as the original Whopper (lettuce, tomato, hamburger patty, etc.), but all the condiments were rotated 180 degrees for the benefit of their left-handed customers. The following day Burger King issued a follow-up release revealing that although the Left-Handed Whopper was a hoax, thousands of customers had gone into restaurants to request the new sandwich. Simultaneously, according to the press release, "many others requested their own 'right handed' version."

I was spectacularly done this morning after being told on the radio that due to the poor sales of Robbie Williams recent album, the agent of Gary Barlow had flown to America and agreed a deal with Robbies agent that would see Williams back with Take That for their next tour.

Drove from Brighton to Eastbourne yesterday after my sister left me a very convincing phone message saying that Eastbourne pier had burnt down, it was only as I hit Eastbourne seafront that it dawned and I turned the car round without even bothering to check out the pier. Doh!
