Linking caffeinated beer, Lincraft, Lego, monkey porn, Parisian waiters, bad Yank food ...

What the world needs now is caffeinated beer.

Via leadgend. Lincraft has gone into receivership.

Being clever with Lego™.

Monkeys will pay to see monkey porn. Does this fall into the category of yes we are primates or scientists are sick and twisted?

The rules for getting service from Parisian waiters. (No doubt tyggerjai and bunnikins will be able to tell us all

The Americans have this theory that the French only win when the Americans play on their side. That, apart from a few colonial adventures, it happen's to be true is, of course, even more offensive.

Mind you, an Anglophile friend is found of pointing out that the Americans spent decades screaming at Mother England to save them from the French and, when Mother had done so, screamed at them over any suggestion they might pay for it. (A bit adolescent perhaps.)

It is interesting to consider what might have happened if the Brits had decided to either have the colonials elect members to the Commons or set up a local Privy Council (a la The Two Georges). The Bourbons don't bankrupt themselves funding the American Revolution. Which non-example doesn't inspire the French Revolution. The world could have been a very different place ...

And as for Mark Steyn: I remember his great pun of years ago about the film career of Michael Douglas and how he played the poor male victim of Voracious Female Monsters -- Demi came back for Moore, Sharon had a heart of Stone and Glenn got too Close.
