The only type of website I find more annoying than websites with sound, are websites with sound that isn't easily disabled.

http://b0.imgsrc.ru/p/p_verte/4179090SnU.jpg http://community.livejournal.com/fauna_ru/359316.html And there's no such thing as a website with sound that can't be turned off. There is only insufficient dedication on the part of the viewer. Of course, stabbing the living hell out of the site designer is certainly a valid form that dedication can take. |
That's the smallest guitar I've ever seen. It makes the snail look big.

Sark, the smallest of the Channel Islands, is the last bastion of feudalism in Europe. Rob Crossan of the Guardian writes:
Nobody has tried to change things on Sark for some time. Its arcane system dates back to Elizabethan times, with the head of the feudal government, or seigneur, owning everything, including anything that gets washed up on the island’s shores. The present incumbent, Michael Beaumont, has held the position for more than 30 years. Sark’s tenants are required to own a musket - a relic of the time Elizabeth I sent 40 Jersey men there to quell debauchery and piracy in the 16th century. There are no paved roads or cars, and bucolic harmony has reigned pretty much unchallenged (bar occupation by the Nazis) for more than 500 years. Now Sark has fallen afoul of the EU because, as Seigneur Beaumont so disarmingly puts it, "Nothing much is human-rights compliant here." So, The tenants have three options. They can vote to retain the status quo and risk the wrath of Strasbourg, decide to bring in democracy straight away, or adopt a transition phase, which would mean a parliament of 28 people, of whom 16 would be elected. And, very probably, we will have to bid godspeed to Elizabethan Sark. The ruffs, the stomachers, and even the codpieces will have to go into mothballs, all for the sake of modernization. http://www.neatorama.com/2007/07/03/...he-crossroads/ http://www.sark.info/ http://www.sark.gov.gg/ |
