hongkong.scmp.com - South China Morning Post online coverage of Hong Kong politics and news (Subcsription required - sorry.)
The Executive Council has approved the long-awaited MTR West Island Line, which will cut travelling time between Sheung Wan and Kennedy Town by at least a half.
About bloody time!

And speaking of Sam Beckett, i saw my first ever episode of Star Trek: Enterprise today. Not as bad as I was expecting, but not stunning either.

There's a little bit of cognitive dissonance in Queer Eye for the Straight Guy being sponsored by Vidal Sassoon Weighted Straight Shampoo

Criminal Record

Sometime back, on another site, I mentioned that I had a criminal record, viz "Stairway to Heaven" by Rolf Harris. I'm very much afraid that, thanks to Limewire I have a worse transgression.
Bohemian Rhapsody, by Rolf Harris.
(It has to be on a line by itself, as it would probably contaminate anything it comes into contact with.)
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go listen to some Leonard Nimoy to recalibrate my ears.

- It is possible to drive to anywhere in Los Angeles in under 5 minutes. Mexico requires a ten minute plane ride.
- Wireless network connections work even in the deepest bowels of a building from a remote source.
- Jack Bauer can drive without looking at the road. (although, to be fair, most American actors seems to drive while staring fixedly at their passenger.)
- The hard drives on 4U Dells are arranged vertically and are screwed in. There's also a convenient place on the Dell server to attach a lump of C4.

Ever wondered about who does those Movie Trailers?
Here's a trailer making fun of trailers. Apparently the guy doing the voice over is one of few guys who do most of them.

What is the purpose of Thanksgiving? Simple. Because its always pretty close to my birthday, it's clearly millions of Americans saying thanks to G-d that I'm not over there, and they don't have to put up with me.

Political Quizzes

While reading Kuro5hin I came across the following political quizzes:
- Libertarian Quiz - On this one, I'm a left-liberal, which seems about right. 100% Personal Self-Government, 40% Economic Self-Government.
- Political Compass Quiz - On this one, I'm Economic Left/Right -3.25 and Libertarian/Authoritarian -6.21. This means I'm to the left economically, and more liberal than authoritarian.
These both sound about right.
