Entertainment news – Friends reunion episode will feature only Chandler and Monica; rest of cast deemed irrelevant


It has been reported that a special one-off reunion episode of hit US sitcom Friends, to be filmed and broadcast next year, will not mention characters Joey, Ross, Rachel and Phoebe. Certain rumours suggest that the script will take extra care in especially not mentioning Phoebe, who has been deemed “least relevant” by the entire US television industry.

The Disjointed Adventures of Huxley Finnigan – Chapter 2


There was a distinct pattern, Huxley noticed as he meandered through the woods, that the trees shared entirely.  Each and every one of the oxygen-spewing, squirrel-infested bastards (an incident in which a tree fell on Huxley’s sprightly puppy, Jupiter, had left him somewhat bitter) was completely covered in the word “toot”.  Not one twig had escaped the unrelenting scribblings of some tree-carving loon.

It’s never hot enough in the UK to be topless in a public setting


“If I removed my shirt whilst trundling along the pavement, I’d be mistaken for a beige hat stand and promptly bungled into a van to be sold at a car boot sale.”

NASA’s UARS – The evil and strangely-shaped truth


Jamie Breeze joins a particuarly prodigious practitioner to reveal the truth behind NASA’s Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite.

There has been a lot of speculation recently about a six-and-a-half ton bus-sized “satellite” hurtling towards Earth at a speed man cannot comprehend.  The satellite could fall practically anywhere on the planet with a 1 in 3200 risk to public safety, so the question on everyone’s anxious minds is – where?

Luckily, with the help of some wet receipt paper and discarded boxes of corn flakes, I have managed to find the devious culprit behind the debris of this media crash and perhaps some further, lonesome intentions hidden in his deep, dark and disturbing mind.

Review – LittleBigPlanet 2 Move Pack; AKA Sackboy’s Post-Horrific Moves


If you are moved by moving and using your moving limbs to move, then you might share with many people a certain fondness for something called the Kinect. No, I’m joking. It’s the PlayStation Move.  Riper than Paul McCartney’s facial complexion, the new Move Pack for LittleBigPlanet 2, utilising the gimmicky wonders of motion control, will put more than a smile on your face and possibly your anthropomorphic motor system.
