Colin Mcrae 1968-2007



This weekend was a sad one for Motorsport, on Saturday, the greatest Rally driver of all time, Colin Mcrae and his 5 year old son Johnny were tragically killed in a helicopter accident.

STATEMENT ISSUED ON BEHALF OF COLIN McRAE’S FAMILY:

Speaking on behalf of the whole family, Colin’s father, Jim McRae, said today:

“It is with much sadness and regret that we have to make this statement.

It is unbelievable that Colin and Johnny’s lives have been taken so prematurely and in such a tragic manner.

Colin was a great son, a loving husband to Alison and a fantastic father to Johnny and his big sister Hollie. Johnny was a great wee guy, spending every spare minute with his dad, and even at this early stage it looked like he had the potential to carry on the family dynasty.

Our thoughts are also very much with the families of Ben Porcelli and Graeme Duncan. Ben was a great buddy of Johnny’s and they had always spent a lot of time together both in and out of school. Graeme, who now resides in France, had been a close friend of Colin’s since their schooldays and was back in Lanark on holiday.

We are thankful for the overwhelming number of messages of support we have received from all around the world. Colin was very much an inspiration and role model to motorsport fans the world over.

As you can imagine this is a very difficult time for the family and we would ask that our privacy be respected and we be allowed to grieve in private.”



Rest in Peace Sir Colin.

Flight of the Conchords

A new series from HBO:


Flight of the Conchords follows the trials and tribulations of a two man, digi-folk band from New Zealand as they try to make a name for themselves in their adopted home of New York City. The band is made up of Bret McKenzie on guitar and vocals, and Jemaine Clement on guitar and vocals.

Bret and Jemaine have moved to New York in the hope of forging a successful music career. So far they've managed to find a manager (whose "other" job is at the New Zealand Consulate), one fan (a married obsessive) and one friend (who owns the local pawn shop) -- but not much else.

The previews below made me wet my pants!!

Fuel for Life

Diesel launches their new fragrance with this awesome ad.



Brings to mind Lichtenstein on speed during a canvas shortage (but maybe that's just me)

Drums in Your Pants



Wearing these pants turns you into a musician and instrument. Tyler Freeman, aka Odbal, inserted touch sensitive patches into the pants which allows wearers to tap out all sorts of beats on themselves. Hooked up to a computer and amp, the pants are capable of producing a multitude of sounds. Check out the video above to see them in action. I love nerds!

Baby "Wee-Wee"

This makes me feel rather uncomfortable!
A new toy has been introduced in the UK, the 'Baby Wee-Wee' doll drinks water and then pees it out through an "anatomically correct" (but obviously not Jewish)penis!



I'm still cringing!
