True Meaning of Xmas

This goes on for 25 mins so I'd forgive you for maxxing out b4 then... Here's the true wiccan meaning of the yuletide crede! Notice the song: Dance Dance Wherever You Maybe for the "Lord" Shiva was Lord of the "Dance" and not Jesus Christ. And "Christmas" isn't Christian either!

(Two Ronnies) The Worm That Turned

This is the "strand" from their variety show about a world dominated by women in which men were banned: In no particular order...



Watch this one second as for no plausible reason it cuts off half way through. Dunno why. Sorry...

Tsar Bomb - Biggest H-Bomb Ever Tested

It's only 50 megatons. I thought they'd built a 200 megaton bomb?

What they DON'T tell you in these films is that hydrogen bombs weigh approximately one tonne per megaton blast yield. Which means a tsar bomb weighs as much as two large diesel locomotives. NOT practical to fly THAT over American skies without it getting shot down.

NO! The actual H-bombs that WILL drop on our cities are pitifully weak... less than 1 megaton each. Which means we'll all lay around for HOURS if not DAYS dying of radiation sickness and burns (or possibly burning to death - slowly - in the wreckage before death finally DOES take us...)



It's only 50 megatons. I thought they'd built a 200 megaton bomb? A 200 megaton bomb dropped on London would incinerate Brighton, which is a full 50 miles, 80 km away...

What they DON'T tell you in these films is that hydrogen bombs weigh approximately one tonne per megaton blast yield. Which means a tsar bomb weighs as much as two large diesel locomotives. NOT practical to fly THAT over American skies without it getting shot down.

NO! The actual H-bombs that WILL drop on our cities are pitifully weak... less than 1 megaton each. Sometimes barely 100 kilotons or 5 Nagasakis. Which means we'll all lay around for HOURS if not DAYS dying of radiation sickness and burns (or possibly burning to death - slowly - in the wreckage before death finally DOES take us...) NASTY!

Prisoner Cell Block H episode 8 alleged missing scene

I don't know whether this was a missing scene or not but that's what the blurb informed me

Assault at Prisoner Cell Block H

Comedic as it unwittingly ever was, here's proof that the classic Aussie women's prison drama wasn't really for children...

Gronda Gronda! It's The Adventure Game!!

This is the classic, cult BBC series "aimed at children yet watched by adults" that featured a pre-newsreader Moira Stewart plus the crazy Chinese woman supplicating before the yellow teapot with the words: "Gronda gronda your royal highness..."

the loadsarubbish code for this is s3e3 - ok, satisfied?

Nick Nolte, Barbra Streisand in Prince of Tides

Barbra's made loads of films... but why can't she accept that she's a singer and comedienne... anyone can do serious acting but those first two things take rare talent to bring to perfection...

... also this is the only Streisand film I honestly actually remember scenes of right the way through. Based on a novel by Pat Conroy it sets up an intriguing triangle of interest: Savannah the distressed poet, Nic Nolte the grudging misplaced repressed concerned brother, Streisand the ever so professional yet ever so vulnerable shrink who shows she's just as needing (if not needy as her patient)... good film this one. Far better than the "interesting" but laughable Yentl, that's for sure!!


But: filmic cliche's coming up!

1. How come all groceries are carried at all times in BROWN PAPER BAGS? Don't American shops have carrier bags like we have over here??

2. They spent hard earned cash, drive to the middle of nowhere... then in the heat of the moment he just chucks those impossible to replace gorceries all over the log cabin's floor... something that is NEVER done in real life... not without sparking lengthy potentially relationshipbusting row

I used to have a Borneo Sucker but she was much darker (usually (she could change colour)) and way flatter. Like a ribbon...

Geraldine Winter White Russian Hamster

Geraldine looks slightly confused to me ...

Winter White Hamsters Not Running On Wheel

Mine never went white like this in winter. Probably because I leave my light on too much of the time. (Their fur goes from grey to white in wintertime in reaction to reduction in daylight levels.)

Upside Down Campbells Hamster Eats Popcorn on Piano Keys

I've never seen anything like this:

Campbells Hamster Wheel Fight

These dwarf hamsters are called Campbells. I used to have one, only he kept threatening to bite me whenever I tried to pick him up (hated being grabbed round the sides). Very beautiful furry coats though. Unfortunately my room was too hot really in summer for him and his housemate who was a Winter White (and much kinder in temperament). Their fur was the highest quality fur I have ever felt on a domestic pet. Better than any fur coat I've touched. Good thing the fur trade never discovered these creatures. (Also it would take about 1000 of them to make a floor-length coat. Ooer.)

On a more serious note the poor lady - so desperate for help - actually DIED as a result of this situation. Not funny.
