With the Olympic torch in Australia, it seems like a good time to post this one. The question: How to design a logo? I mean, after all… it’s the Olympic Games and the pressure is on. Lots of expectation; the need to better previous efforts and all that. Who could forget Sid, Olly and Dickhead, Fatso or that all time favourite, Springy! With all that pressure, the Beijing organisers have come up with this:
How did they come up with this I head you ask? I think I have some idea… (more…)
We all know the old saying: One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.
We’ve had the dude who traded a paper clip for a house, another guy who sold his speeding ticket on an online auction house for $NZ52. Faulty laptops, non existent laptops! Kieren Dyer, but who would want him anyway! And who could forget the whole “Jesus Toast” escapades! In the age of E-Bay, securing another man’s trash has become even easier.
Which brings us to Ozheek (not to be confused to our own Oz). Now it seems that Ozheek’s recycle bin on his computer was getting a little large. Now rather than empty the recycle bin, he thought WTF… I’ll try and sell it on E-Bay. I’ve included the link, here, for the auction in case you think that I’m having a lend! 14 bids later and Ozheek is $US50 richer. For the winner; music videos, cellphone “stuff” and yes, porn, is their treasure! As for me, I’m searching around my house for crap to sell right now…
Thanks to a BEEZHOUSE reader, Michael Philippe, for passing this one along.
Well, today is John Howard’s birthday. For those outside Australia, he is our esteemed Prime Minister. To celebrate, here is a picture that I found taped to the coffee machine of the cafe I frequent at Uni. Happy 68th John! Enjoy it… it will be your last as PM.
