US time capsule yields rusty car

This is pretty funny.

"Though encased in a concrete vault said to be strong enough to withstand nuclear attack, the Plymouth Belvedere was waterlogged and covered in rust."

An amusing jape...

...from my good friend Mr Layzell.


A man in a hot air balloon realised he was lost. He reduced altitude and spotted a woman below. He descended a bit more and shouted,

"Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."

The woman below replied,

"You're in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You're between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude."

"You must be in IT," said the balloonist.

"I am," replied the woman, "How did you know?"

"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically correct, but I've no idea what to make of your information and the fact is I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help at all. If anything, you've delayed my trip."

The woman below responded, "You must be in Management."

"I am," replied the balloonist, "but how did you know?"

"Well," said the woman, "you don't know where you are or where you're going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise, which you've no idea how to keep, and you expect people beneath you to solve your problems. The fact is you are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but now, somehow, it's my ****ing fault."

Total eclipse of the moon

I'm now in the process of uploading all my pictures to Flickr. Using this superb site will revolutionise the way I handle my photos at my dangrabham.com site as I'll be able to embed Flickr slideshows into my pages. Woot. That also means people can download originals, while my pics will also be displayed on my Facebook. And it also means I can auto-blog my favourite pictures - such as this one from the lunar eclipse on 3 March.
