==================================

Strange Quotes About Retirement:

I will not retire while I've still got my legs and my make-up box. - Bette Davis quotes (American actress, 1908-1989)

I have never liked working. To me a job is an invasion of privacy - Danny McGoorty Irish Pool Player

Retirement at sixty-five is ridiculous. When I was sixty-five I still had pimples. - George Burns

When a man retires, his wife gets twice the husband but only half the income. - Chi Chi Rodriguez quotes (Puerto Rican golfer, b.1935)

Nothing is more usual than the sight of old people who yearn for retirement: and nothing is so rare than those who have retired and do not regret it - Charles de Saint-Evremond

When you retire, think and act as if you were still working; when you're still working, think and act a bit as if you were already retired. - Anonymous quotes

Sooner or later I'm going to die, but I'm not going to retire. - Margaret Mead

There are some who start their retirement long before they stop working. - Robert Half

Preparation for old age should begin not later than one's teens. A life which is empty of purpose until 65 will not suddenly become filled on retirement. - Dwight Moody quotes (American evangelist 1839-1899)

The question isn't at what age I want to retire, it's at what income. - George Foreman

Retirement: When you quit working just before your heart does - Anonymous

Age is only a number, a cipher for the records. A man can't retire his experience. He must use it. Experience achieves more with less energy and time. -Bernard M. Baruch quotes (American president, financier and adviser to US presidents, 1870-1965)

Musicians don't retire; they stop when there's no more music in them. - Louis Armstrong (American leading trumpeter, 1901-1971)

There is an enormous number of managers who have retired on the job. - Peter F. Drucker

Retirement is like a long vacation in Las Vegas. The goal is to enjoy it the fullest, but not so fully that you run out of money. - Jonathan Clements

Men seek out retreats for themselves in the country, by the seaside, on the mountains... But all this is unphilosophical to the last degree... when thou canst at a moment's notice retire into thyself. -Marcus Aelius Aurelius

The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender. - Vince Lombardi

Preparation for old age should begin not later than one's teens. A life which is empty of purpose until 65 will not suddenly become filled on RETIREMENT. - Arthur E. Morgan

==================================

Today's Featured Humor : -) - Funny Things Said by Police

Funny Things Said by Police

1. I'm sorry Ma'am, but with the unlicensed gun in your purse plus the DWI, you ARE a real criminal.

2. Hey John, get out of the cruiser and come over here to say "Thank You." We stopped the guy who pays OUR salary!

3. Yeah, I do have bank robbers to catch, but that might be dangerous, so I'm going to play it safe and write you this ticket.

4. Hurry it up? Sure, I'll just go back to the cruiser and write the citation. Do you have food and water in the car? This shouldn't take more than six hours.

5. Do you know why I stopped you, or do you THINK like you Drive?

6. What do you mean I won't believe you? Just because you've got three kilos of smack and two bodies in the trunk doesn't mean there isn't a perfectly reasonable explanation.

7. No, you've got that WRONG. I'm even TOUGHER without the badge and gun.

8. Of course you didn't DO it. You just happened to start your wind sprints in front of the department store, the VCR is extra weight, and the security guards were providing MOTIVATION.

9. She STARTED it? That's the best you can do? My four-year-old does better than that when I ask why his sister is crying.

10. HAVE A NICE DAY.

: WHAT B3TA PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MAKING THIS WEEK
10 Words, C4, Spock, Tron and the Thing

>> 10 Word Wiki <<
It's like Wikipedia but just the 10 words.
Great concept.
http://www.tenwordwiki.wikispot.org


>> Channel 4 News Remix <<
News theme gets the full drum and bass
treatment. This is what Jon Snow listens to on
his iPod when he goes out happy slapping. Kudos
to speedy and netgem21.
http://b3ta.com/links/Channel_4_News_Remix_by_netgem21_speedy

>> Spock PAAAIIIINNNN <<
Shatner's your go-to guy when it comes to
over-acting, poor Leonard Nimoy is unfairly
overlooked. To redress the balance here's
Jayenkai's musical remix of some prime Spocky
ham.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/PAAAIIIINNNN

>> A Very British Thing <<
A one-minute remake of the 1982 John Carpenter
masterpiece The Thing. "In my (weak) defence,
it's intentionally cheap and silly-looking,
apologises sir_spicious2000. We demand more
space-horror films be set in Surrey.

: Weebl does X Factor

Jonti takes his characters Weebl, Bob and
Insanity Prawn Boy onto a TV talent show as
judges, where they meet some oddly familiar
contestants. More advertising work for Jonti in
what appears to be his now-annual gig working
with Cadbury's Creme Eggs. Hopefully they don't
pay him with delicious chocolate money.

: QUESTION OF THE WEEK
Real-life Slapstick

Last week we asked about your hilarious bumps,
thumps and prat-falls:
http://b3ta.com/questions/slapstick/

* CAT BURGLAR - "A police friend of my Dad's is
sent out to investigate some suspicious
activity in the Oxford area where he finds a
house with a ladder against it, leading to an
ajar bedroom window. Clearly a bit suspicious,
so he climbs the old and rickety ladder to
investigate. As he reaches the top he briefly
glimpses a cat sitting on the bed giving him a
quizzical look. I say 'briefly' because a
second later there is a loud 'CRACK' and the
rung snaps cleanly through the middle. He
plummets rapidly, each rung snapping cleanly as
he hits them, like a Looney Tunes cartoon. He
hits the floor and rolls away groaning, his
hands now 20% splinters. A car pulls up and the
driver runs over. "What are you doing in my
garden?" "Checking your house. There was a
ladder going up to a window and someone
reported it as suspicious!" "Oh no mate, that's
just so my cat can get in" "Aren't you worried
about getting burgled?" "Nah," says the guy.
"I've sawed half-way through each rung"
(stubbledchin)

* ROUTEMASTER - "Friday evening, Oxford St.
I've just left work after a couple of cheeky
beers, and I spot a 73, in all its old
Routemaster glory, waiting at the lights. So I
run for it. And it starts moving off. So I run
a bit faster. By now I have an audience - some
girls looking out the back window from the top
deck are cheering me on. So naturally efforts
are redoubled. The bus is moving quite quickly
now, and I don't know if I'll make it... But
I'm there! With a gazelle-like spring, I'm on!
Nice'n'safe, one foot on the platform, both
hands around the pole. Phew. And the strap on
the record-bag style, erm, bag, slung over my
shoulder, decides to snap. And with that sudden
jerk, my feet slip off the platform, my hands
slide down the pole and my body ends up
stretched out on the road, being dragged up
London's busiest - but not, take it from me,
smoothest - street. The bus is gathering speed,
I'm fishtailing behind it not daring let go 'cos
I have no idea what's coming behind me. After a
good 150m I manage to check behind me, see the
road is clear and let go, skidding and rolling
to a stop. I'm not exaggerating, but this
brought Oxford St to a standstill. People just
stopped and stared open mouthed. I got up,
brushed myself off and walked about 50 yards
back to where a woman was standing, holding the
remains of my bag." (FridgeBadger)

* BOLLARDIER - "I once tried to impress a load
of firemen who were stopped at a red light in
their fire truck by leapfrogging over a
bollard. Gave it a good go but forgot I had a
skirt on. Cue bollard swinging straight towards
my face. I was stuck, by my skirt, upside-down
with my face at the bottom of a fucking
bollard. one of the firemen kindly got out of
his truck and un-hooked me." (nettestar)

>> This Week's Question: Music <<
We'd like the soundtrack to your lives - what
music has accompanied the great events of your
life, or just what do you like to do a poo to?
Talk to us here:
http://b3ta.com/questions/soundtrack/

-------------------------------------------------

: SITES IN BRIEF
Stuff we like that wasn't made by our mates

>> Windows 3.1 in JavaScript <<
Geeks rejoice! Finally the wonders of an early
90s version of Windows have come to javascript.
Best enjoyed listening to Guru Josh - not the
modern remix but the funnier, earlier one with
the vocal "1990s, time for Guru!"
http://www.michaelv.org.nyud.net/

>> Cats on Page 3 <<
Readers of The Sun know all about Page 3 -
photos of nudey ladies with right-wing points
of view. Imagine if you took these quotes and
replaced the breasty lovelies with cats? Could
you still wank to it?
http://www.thekittenchannel.com/catnews.php

>> Unhappy hipsters <<
Dull photos of vaguely trendy-looking people
with extremely depressing captions. This is the
work of a misanthropist.
http://is.gd/7daIX

>> David Cameron Facts <<
Remember Chuck Norris facts? "Outer space
exists because it's afraid to be on the same
planet with Chuck Norris." Imagine doing
similar with our possible Prime Minister-to-be.
Would that be funny? 771 followers on Twitter
think so.
http://twitter.com/davefacts

>> Shitty old album covers again <<
Elliot writes, "A quite excellent collection of
rubbish album covers. Hadn't seen most of
these." Nor us, Elliot, nor us. NSFW in places
but, as Elliot points out, "If someone's afraid
of the human body I have nothing but pity for
them."
http://bit.ly/147ku2

>> Headline of the day <<
Not much we can write about this without
ruining the joke so with no further ado:
http://snurl.com/lollikeyouveneverlolledbefore

-------------------------------------------------

: THINGS THAT MAKE YOU GO AAHH
Railway pup

Nothing tugs the heart-strings like a fluff
baby in peril. This poor wee puppy was rescued
from some train lines - he'd frozen to them in
the cold weather. Ironically, his name is Track
- what are the chances of that??
http://snurl.com/puppytime

-------------------------------------------------

: VIDEO SCHMIDEO
Imagine this on an iPad. WoooOOOooo!

>> Simon Swears <<
Years ago we ran a flash toy with the same
name, now it's become a real hardware project.
Yep, a speaking, swearing Simon toy. Fan
fucking tastic.
http://is.gd/7daTi

>> Welcome back Chris Morris. <<
Very much looking forward to seeing Chris
Morris's new comedy about shit terrorists. The
clip is OK, but hey, it's new Chris Morris.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Welcome_back_Chris_Morris

>> Carol Vorderman - Motherfucker <<
The first show on C4 was Countdown and it's
still going, although they got rid of the rest
reason to watch - Carol Vorderman - years ago.
Remember her this way - made to say rude words
through the medium of editing.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Carol_Vorderman_Motherfucker

>> iPad lols <<
So the marketing team sat around going, "Is
there any precedent for this name?" "Well
there's this old comedy sketch from 2007 on
youTube about sanitary towels." "Nah, fuck it,
nobody will notice will they?"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsjU0K8QPhs

>> How news reports work <<
A good deconstruction by Charlie Brooker on how
news reports are put together - might
temporarily put you off watching the news as
you'll just be spotting the format points for a
bit.
http://snurl.com/charltonbrookerisfunny

>> Kersal Massive nostalgia <<
If you remember the internet from 2005 then
you'll enjoy this comedy clip of an A&R man
trying to get into some Kersal action.
http://snurl.com/scrotes

-------------------------------------------------

: FUNNY NAME CORNER
Cocky slags

* KNOB MECHANIC - "The chap third from top made
me emit a cheesy one (a smile, of course)"
confesses Parpy Parp-Parp.
http://snurl.com/cccsuperloltime

* SAD NEWS - Looks like b3ta's favourite
magazine is going under:

>> New challenge: The iPad <<
As Steve Jobs launches the most exciting
product in the world, ever, this week's
challenge is obvious: take the piss out
of the iPad
http://www.b3ta.com/challenge/ipad/

-------------------------------------------------

: WHAT HAPPENED NEXT?
Follow-ups on previous stories.

* GUY GOMA - Remember Guy Goma, the bloke who
got mistaken for a tech journalist and
interviewed on News 24, then that flash of
total shock when he caught on? Turns out that
Guy Kewney, the bloke he was mistaken for, now
has cancer. If you've ever laughed at the clip,
why not donate some spare change to make his
life a bit better?
http://bit.ly/az1d2Y

-------------------------------------------------

: STAR IN NEXT WEEK'S ISSUE

Make something cool and tell us about it. If
you are in it then people will see your stuff.

Things we'd really like to see include

* CHARLIE BROOKER'S ALL-DAY-BREAKFAST BAR -
"Fried egg, bacon, chips and beans, mashed and
compacted into a Crunchie-sized slab, covered
with a layer of ketchup, then swaddled in thick
Dairy Milk chocolate. It'd look and weigh about
the same as a Double Decker. And yes, it sounds
disgusting - but you'd have to try it once,
wouldn't you?"
http://snurl.com/yeahyeahyeahyeah

* PEACE KITTENS VS TRANSGLOBAL UNDERGROUND -
"The chords in the chorus of Transglobal
Underground's 'Temple Head' are among the most
life-affirming things ever", states Iain, "It
seems obvious to me that, if footage could be
found of kittens miaowing with the same
intervals, all world conflict could be ended at
a stroke."

* SEMI-SLICED BREAD - and other unhappy
compromises between control and convenience.

Strange Quotes About "Wisdom"


"I hate quotations. Tell me what you know." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Know thyself." - Linnaeus

"The two most abundant things in the universe are Hydrogren and stupidity." - Harlan Ellison

"Question everything. Learn something. Answer nothing." - Engineer's Motto

"You can lead a horticulture but you can't make her think." - Dorothy Parker

"Apologizing - a very desperate habit - one that is rarely cured. Apology is only egotism wrong side out." ~Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr., The Professor at the Breakfast-Table

==================================

Today's Featured Humor : -) - Comments Made in 1957 - Amazing!


Thought you might like to see these!!! Comments made in the year 1957:

"I'll tell you one thing, if things keep going the way they are, it's going to be impossible to buy a week's groceries for $20."

"Have you seen the new cars coming out next year? It won't be long before $5000 will only buy a used one."

"If cigarettes keep going up in price, I'm going to quit. A quarter a pack is ridiculous."

"Did you hear the post office is thinking about charging a dime just to mail a letter?"

"If they raise the minimum wage to $1, nobody will be able to hire outside help at the store."

"When I first started driving, who would have thought gas would someday cost 29 cents a gallon.
Guess we'd be better off leaving the car in the garage."

"Kids today are impossible. Those duck tail hair cuts make it impossible to stay groomed. Next thing you know, boys will be wearing their hair as long as the girls."

"I'm afraid to send my kids to the movies any more.
Ever since they let Clark Gable get by with saying 'damn' in 'Gone With The Wind,' it seems every new movie has either "hell" or "damn" in it.

"I read the other day where some scientist thinks it's possible to put a man on the moon by the end of the century. They even have some fellows they call astronauts preparing for it down in Texas."

"Did you see where some baseball player just signed a contract for $75,000 a year just to play ball? It wouldn't surprise me if someday they'll be making more than the president."

"I never thought I'd see the day all our kitchen appliances would be electric. They are even making electric typewriters now."

"It's too bad things are so tough nowadays. I see where a few married women are having to work to make ends meet."

"It won't be long before young couples are going to have to hire someone to watch their kids so they can both work."

"Marriage doesn't mean a thing any more; those Hollywood stars seem to be getting divorced at the drop of a hat."

"I'm just afraid the Volkswagen car is going to open the door to a whole lot of foreign business."

"Thank goodness I won't live to see the day when the Government takes half our income in taxes. I sometimes wonder if we are electing the best people to congress."

"The drive-in restaurant is convenient in nice weather, but I seriously doubt they will ever catch on."

"There is no sense going to Lincoln or Omaha anymore for a weekend. It costs nearly $15 a night to stay in a hotel."

"No one can afford to be sick any more; $35 a day in the hospital is too rich for my blood."

"If they think I'll pay 50 cents for a hair cut, forget it."

Know friends who would get a kick out of these? Pass it on!

"Cat" Quotes

Cat: A pygmy lion who loves mice, hates dogs and patronizes human beings. - Oliver Herford

Some people say man is the most dangerous animal on the planet. Obviously those people have never met an angry cat. - Lillian Johnson

Cats are intended to teach us that not everything in nature has a purpose. - Garrison Keillor

If cats could talk, they would lie to you. - Rob Kopack

The cat could very well be man's best friend but would never stoop to admitting it. - Doug Larson

Dogs come when they're called; cats take a message and get back to you. - Mary Bly

==================================

Today's Featured Humor : -) - -Top 10 Differences Between Cats & Dogs


10. Dogs come when you call them. Cats take a message and get back to you.

9. Dogs will let you give them a bath without taking out a contract on your life.

8. Dogs will bark to wake you up if the house is on fire. Cats will quietly sneak out the back door.

7. Dogs will bring you your slippers or the evening newspaper. Cats might bring you a dead mouse.

6. Dogs will play Frisbee with you all afternoon. Cats will take a three-hour nap.

5. Dogs will sit on the car seat next to you. Cats have to have their own private box or they will not go at all.

: WHAT B3TA PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MAKING THIS WEEK
Clunk, Clean, Calc and Egg

>> 'Clunk Click' Remix.. <<
Jimmy Savile = win. Jimmy Savile plus old 70s
public information films, bursting with footage
of British Leyland cars, one of which is driven
by a woman who looks like Ken Dodd = double
win. Add JamHamster's kicking hardcore track
and you've got a monster hit on your hands.

No actual filth from this cheeky old buffer,
father of b3tan Big Face. No smut as such; he's
far too cunning, preferring to make lols with
innuendo and misdirection.

>> Mad calculator <<
"My calculator is solar-powered and has been
left switched on since the 1980s," explains
mutated monty. "During that time it has somehow
developed its own form of consciousness - every
morning it has weird random numbers on its
screen and stored in its memory. So I've set up
what is probably the most pointless Twitter
account of all time to document its daily
ramblings. Those numbers might actually mean
something to somebody."

Scottish Egg, Jonti is here to enlighten you
through the power of music. Mmmmmmmmmm. Egg.

: QUESTION OF THE WEEK
Anonymous

Last week we asked for things you've done under
the cloak of anonymity. Frankly, some of your
answers scared the crap out of us:
http://b3ta.com/questions/anon/

* AWW, FLOWERS - "When we go to the cemetery
where Mrs SLVA's parents are buried, I see lots
of childrenÕs graves, especially of pre
school-age kids. I'll pick one at random, clear
away any dead flowers, get fresh water and
leave a couple of fresh ones, seeing as we
always take far too big a bunch ourselves. I
got caught once: just as I was putting a couple
of flowers in the little pot thing the parents
arrived, "What are you doing?" the mother
asked. So I told her. She looked at me for a
couple of seconds and then threw her arms
around me. "Thank you," she said and I felt a
tear against my cheek." (sandettie light vessel
automatic)

* DAEWOO-WOO-WOO - "There used to be a tiny
little Daewoo parked in my street most
evenings. It wasn't owned by anyone who lived
there. I could tell this because the alarm used
to go off for hours at a time and no one would
come out to turn it off. We left a note.
Nothing happened. A week later, it was still
going off every night and really getting on my
nerves. My housemates and I were bemoaning our
predicament in the pub to some friends when
they agreed something had to be done. That
night about fifteen of us lifted the car up and
carried it to the traffic island at the end of
the street, leaving it "parked" on the grass in
the middle, nose poking out from the scrub,
along with a note saying, "I am hiding, because
lots of people are angry with me :-(" ...We never
saw it again." (SnowyTheRabbit)

* MURDER - "I live in a small town. One morning
I got to work to find that a terrible murder
had occurred. The details of each story I heard
were different but the whole town was buzzing
with the news. Phone calls and texts were
exchanged, gossip was rife; this was exciting
stuff. But I knew the truth. The previous night
it'd been blowing a hooly and a pub in town had
started losing slates off the roof at an
incredible rate. The police turned up and
cordoned off the pavement with tape in case
anyone copped a slate on the bonce. People
going to work in the morning had seen the tape.
They'd recognised the pub as not being one of
the nicest places to frequent. And then? Then
they'd seen the chalk outlines of a man, a dog
and a knife lying within the bounds of the
police tape. In their tiny minds a man and his
dog were stabbed to death. A classic whodunnit.
Amazing the amount of fun one can have with a
piece of chalk." (oneinthepink)

Finally, a textbook example of how not to be
anonymous on the internet (props to Totach for
eventually seeing the funny side):
http://www.b3ta.com/questions/anon/post615785

>> This Week's Question <<

We'd like your moments of real-life slapstick.
When you're done tripping over that rake, talk
to us here:
http://b3ta.com/questions/slapstick/

-------------------------------------------------

: SITES IN BRIEF
Stuff we like that wasn't made by our mates

>> Comic book superheroes in a Picasso styleee <<
Superman looks like a cyclops and Spiderman has
a thalidomide quality to him. They'd make great
stamps - much cooler than bloody Screamadelica,
you old postie cunts.
http://snurl.com/meltyspidey

>> Hot chicks plunging their toilets <<
A huge trend at the moment is one-hit blogs -
collections of photos in a bizarre theme that
generates a WTF reaction in the viewer, forcing
them to click and pass it on. E.g. cats in
sinks etc. Usually, if you can find one photo
then a quick search will dredge up more. This
bunch of entrepreneurial numpties are trying to
sew up the hot chicks market with a series
including '...smiling at Ground Zero"
"...picking up dogshit" and others. We reckon
the plan is making link bait for sites like us
and then flogging the sites to SEO companies
once they've got a bit of traction.
http://hotchicksplungingtheirtoilets.com/

>> Local news for local people <<
Our local paper, The Camden New Journal mixes
pictures of Michael Foot with lurid tales of
crack-infested estates and dead prostitutes.
This site salutes all that is great about
Britain's local newspapers.
http://thenetherregions.co.uk/


>> Sex print<<
To the innocent viewer, the mark on this car
looks like a panda's face. Look again and cover
your eyes at the shame of it all.
http://snurl.com/wifesnightout

>> Charting the Beatles <<
The whole web is spunking over infographics -
turning dull data into bright spanking charts
and diagrams. This makes the complete work of
The Beatles look like something out of a GCSE
maths textbook.
http://www.mikemake.com/#72772/Charting-the-Beatles


-------------------------------------------------

: VIDEO SCHMIDEO
Watch while the telly's rebooting

>> The birdy song<<
Everyone knows chimps can make art, but who
knew that birds could play guitar. Tiny cute
birds with colourful beaks, they look like
miniature parrots. They're actually finches
and they RAWK.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Go_on_birdies

>> How to enjoy a 3D movie <<
Looking uncannily like Charlie Brooker's
special uncle, BBC Film boffin Mark Kermode
rips into the current fad for all things 3D.
Give him Wossy's job on Film 97, he's clearly
auditioning for it here.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/How_to_enjoy_a_3D_movie

>> GINGERS DO HAVE SOULS!! <<
South Park recently strayed into the territory
of pure evil when they put out an episode
saying gingers don't have souls. This one
doesn't have a brain. But Jesus loves him all
the same.
http://bit.ly/6waTPx

>> French letter <<
A few years ago we stopped off at a motorway
service station on the M4 and were utterly
transfixed by the lewd gay graffiti in the
gents' toilets. One memorable piece gave
detailed masturbation tips for the under 12s.
Obviously the graffiti in French toilets is
purely heterosexual, if this is anything to go
by.
http://snurl.com/u5k72

>> Big tits = big hits <<
This young lady has 600,000 views for her
pedestrian guide to Asian emoticons. Her
trick? Enormous jugs pushed up to her chin,
butt-grazing shorts and kitten ears. We don't
think girls would like her very much.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifA1AQe_NF0

>> Boy jumps on moving bus <<
Hero or twat, depending on which demographic you
inhabit. We reckon both.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Boy_jumps_on_moving_bus

-------------------------------------------------

: FUNNY NAME CORNER
Not very funny and not very cornerish as usual

* GOATSE IS GOOD STUFF - At least, that's what
Lastminute.com seem to think. Check out the
buttock-shaped Os in this unlikely logo:
http://snurl.com/lastminutegoatse

* MR TINY KOX - It takes big balls to go through
life with a name like that.
http://bit.ly/Z8JrG

* TWATTS - But why? Why? It's not even the name
of the company!
http://twatts.co.uk/

* CHANGE YOUR NAME MR LARSEN - "Surprised this
man's re-election didn't take a turn for the
worst," chuckles ccc.

: B3TA IMAGE CHALLENGE

disappeared completely. Where's it
gone? (DogHorse)

>> New challenge: Unlikely Mergers <<
In the week that nasty Kraft took over
nice Cadbury, this week's challenge is
to picture unlikely company mergers, and
the products that might result.
http://www.b3ta.com/challenge/mergers/

-------------------------------------------------

: WHAT HAPPENED NEXT?
Follow-ups on previous stories.

* GIRL SINGS WEEBL'S SONG - thanks to Darklord
for pointing out this charming cover version of
Amazing Horse. Also amusing is the B3tans
discussing the young lady's attractiveness,
chest tattoos and facial piercings. She's not
going to look twice at you - well unless you're
there to fix the printer that is.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Amazing_Horse_Cover_Version

* WANKING ENTHUSIASTS SITE - anonymous writes,
"Re: a site which contains a button saying
'I've just had a wank?', try bedposted, a
discreet online database for you to store
details of your shags and wanks. Enjoy!"
http://www.bedposted.com

* MORE CALENDAR SUGGESTIONS - Gibberer writes,
"Try the 2010 Hooters Calendar. You know you
want to... It's a, err, hoot."
http://www.joe-ks.com/hooterscalendar/

-------------------------------------------------

: FRIDAY GAME
Endless Migration

You are a goose. You are a goose and you must
fly south, collecting as many mates as you can.
Too be honest, we didn't last too long before
flying into a jet engine. Like a dream we once
had.
http://snurl.com/endlessmigration

-------------------------------------------------

: STAR IN NEXT WEEK'S ISSUE

Make something cool and tell us about it. If
you are in it then people will see your stuff.

Things we'd really like to see include

* WHATWILLIHAVEFORSUPPER.COM - "Could one of
your webions devise this?" asks @kfking,
"Shouldn't be too hard as the answer is always
cheese on toast."

* FLAKE / POO = "Regarding Cadbury," writes
@peregr1n, " I've always maintained Flake
smells/tastes faintly of poo. Can someone do a
blind taste test?"

* CHEAPER TRAIN TICKETS - Philip Knight has an
idea and he wants B3tans to help. Return train
tickets often cost a similar price to singles -
can somebody set up a site for people to sell
on the return bit of the ticket and make
cheaper tickets for everyone? Philip explains
it in more detail here:
http://snurl.com/u5kci

Stick your cocks in our mail form.
http://www.b3ta.com/mailus/

BTW: If you've sent something in that hasn't
been featured then don't be put off - we look
at everything you send us. Sometimes we shudder,
but we do look.
