    Rural Mysteries of the North Fork Polygon

    These Meadow Vista Ghost Deer were photographed eating ghost roses and ghost fruit trees. They also walked with a noticable limp. (2003) Were these rocks altered by the original Polygonians? Or is this the natural result of unnatural forces? http://www.ruralmysteries.com/index.html

    Oh come on! It looks pretty funny, got to be preferable to rinsing the Indiana Jones franchise. Shame it's not on anywhere.

    Entrances to Hell around the UK

    Underlow emits a constant whining sound which ebbs and flows with the moon. It is protected by a foul gas and stands on marshy ground. The nearest settlement is a tiny hamlet named Churchwick which was abandoned during the First World War. An ideal outlet when discretion is necessary. Radiation...

    Bridgend, depression and infrasound

    Another young suicide in the Welsh county of Bridgend on Monday. That's 22 since the beginning of 2007. Police and social services have mostly maintained that there's been no link between these but it's certainly a large jump above the numbers to be expected in an area that size. So I was...

    A mix from me

    Little mix-up from earlier this year. All my stuff - some older, some newer, some in-between. Freak-step, italo-horror-grime, teutonic-melotronica, cosmic-break-bleep, motorik-porno-pop, ambient-prog-hop, acid-noise-dub, mantric-wah-soul - that kind of thing. Be interested to know what people...

    Mobile broadband

    Anyone using it? How do you find it? Not that many options still (UK) but the prices are coming down loads - think I'll still wait a while before I try it though. Looks like some of the cheaper options block Skype and VoIP services so you can't use it for phone calls as well. But £25 p/m for...

    Language and context

    For the sake of taking this out of the Dubstep thread.

It'd be disingenuous or...

    Psychic TV

    I suppose it was inevitable, there is now a channel called Psychic TV. Saw it last night, you can guess what it's all about - grizzly stuff. It was to be followed by 'Acid TV'. *shrugs*
