Johnny Cash scribbles

Lots of people make lists, but Johnny Cash's are just that little bit more interesting. Obviously. What an old softie.  Also check out his lovely note to June at Letters of Note, shout if you spot references to more than two of their song titles.

Everyone needs a little time in the spotlight

After a long hard day in the office being patronised, ignored, and under-appreciated by everyone - and his dog - you might just need a moment in the spotlight with an audience of 500 applauding you...

Bird, plane, balloon

I'm no Star Wars fan but this still tickled me.  Presumably the roar of the hot air is a good likeness to Darth Vader's heavy breathing too.

Miss Bugs

I always keep an eye out for interesting things scrolled on walls and toilet doors around town, but I've never seen these.  Damn the council for throwing them into skips, I would have quite liked one for the living room.

Clap your eyes on these beautiful shots of circus showgirls in the 40s and 50s - and in colour too!

Marcel the Shell

If this short video doesn't warm the cockles of your heart you are a very cold person indeed!  Shells have feelings too you know, as Marcel explains...

Canal+ The Bear

Nice ad.  Not much else to say, other than give it a look.
