Supermoon

No, it's not some new superhero. If you been reading news on the net, you'd have seen it. It happened yesterday when the Moon got closer to the Earth making it appear bigger and brighter than normal. I looked for it yesterday, after reading about it for weeks. Guess what? Not a thing. Why? Because the city I'm in is perpetually covered with a thick grey mass that sometimes chucks down with rain, sometimes hail and sometimes snow and sleet. Any kind of meteorological or astronomical event is totally wasted here. Sigh...

Cartman's "I Hate You Guys" - South Park

Wow... This one brings back some memories. This Cartman classic from Season 3 was first aired in 1999. That's 13 years folks. Hmm... Shouldn't have brought up the age related thing. Anyways, Enjoy.

Wired.com analyses The Hulk 3.0

Just read this article on Wired.com on why The Hulk, the third recent cinematic incarnation, worked so well with Mark Ruffalo playing the part. I must say, after having watched The Avengers (2012), I totally agree. He doesn't say much, but the character is probably the most memorable for me because it was unpredictable (as he should be) and unexpectedly hilarious. If they bring out another Hulk movie with Ruffalo, I'd go watch it without a second thought. Bring on 2015!

Audiences love it. Mark Ruffalo’s motion-capture version of the Hulk has played so strongly to international crowds ahead of The Avengers‘ Friday opening in the United States that Marvel Entertainment is already talking about plans to create yet another standalone Hulk movie in 2015.

Murdoch unfit to do anything

This is today's "Breaking News" on BBC News:

Rupert Murdoch "is not a fit person to exercise the stewardship of a major international company"

Is this news to anyone? I know it's following an official report by a bunch of UK MPs (all of whom generally have a rather nasty reputation these days). I thought everyone realised Rupert was a bit of a nutter a long, long time ago.
