It’s one of those mornings. No words. Just coffee.

With pictures.

	If you need proof that the UK’s libel laws are over-the-top, check out the manner in which criticisms of a person’s behaviour need to be expressed, in order to avoid lawsuits.
As a denizen of the Internet, you are no doubt aware of that annoying quiz in which your own writing is compared to famous authors. But be aware that it is flawed: Input some Lovecraft, and it will identify it as Orwell-like. Input some Orwell, and it will be identified as being similar to Margaret Mitchell.
	Remember a few weeks ago when we linked to scaremongering over methane releases from the BP oil spill? Well, now the scaremongering has gone even more extreme — to doomsday scenarios! Of course, these do not stand up to scrutiny. But excellent scaremongering nonetheless!
Historians say that they have located King Arthur’s table. And here I was thinking that King Arthur was just a myth. Are the stories about Merlin true, too?
	It has been shown everywhere I look on the Internet. Everywhere. But I will still link to it, because I continue to love absolutely everything that Improv Everywhere does.
Need a place to crash for a month? Like museums? Then apply to live at Chicago’s Museum of Science and Industry for a month. Oh, you get paid, too. On the downside, you’ll be expected to write. Scary.

a hand came out

Nearly a year ago, I went to an event at the Tate Modern called Shoot London. It was fantastic fun, and I promised myself that I would return to do another photography competition like that one.

Well, it took eleven months, but I finally did it.

Armed with a camera, a stuffed rabbit and Mr Potato Head arms, we went out and collected seven photos to illustrate seven phrases in three hours. When done, they were stitched together with photos from over 30 other teams to create an adaptation of Alice in Wonderland.

All the photos (for all the teams) will eventually be available on the shoot experience website. In the meantime you will have to be satisfied with my team’s non-award-winning photos right here.
