Ever wondered what would happen if a fully laden truck hit a wall? Well watch the video to find out.

Clearly the truck does not have a good day!

Here's a little cracker of a video. It's kind of like 300 had intercourse with the Office, and nine months later, this was the result.

I can finally report some further activity in my AGLOCO account. As you can see from the screen grab below, I've started building 'surfed hours'.

What this actually means, remains to be seen.

Thanks to the advice of Deaf Musician, I'm put together a list of blogs that are running themes that I like, or more specifically feature elements I would like to incorporate into my 'perfect' theme. Amongst other things, a lot of blogs listed are ones that I read regularly (or at least when I get the time), so even if your not interested in WordPress themes, you may find this list useful for finding blogs you may not have discovered otherwise. » Read the rest of the entry..

This has been floating around for a while but I never bothered posting about it until I also saw one of the 'audition' videos (you'll see!).

Any, basic summary, you may not know it, but as I type this there is a competition going on. Nerds doing battle to become the next "internet millionaire" as part of an online reality TV show. Fronted by what appears to be a watered down Donald Trump, this show screams 'tacky'. It's the sort of show you might see at 1am in the morning, after the 30 minute paid spot for hair removal cream.

Here's the semi-exclusive* preview » Read the rest of the entry..

File this story under 'what the deuce?' This is perhaps the weirdest story I've read in a little while. The headline really tells the story, "Stab victim 'continued masturbating", but perhaps is best accompanied by a quote from the prosecutor:

"Despite his injury, it seems (Mr Blair) continued to masturbate while in the garage," the prosecutor said.

Points for persistence.

I've set myself a not so simple task. To create the perfect wordpress theme to use on swollenpickles. First step will be sitting down with a pen and paper to sketch the rough layout.

Ideally I'd like to include 'latest stories' from my other sites in the footer (or somewhere else), although I haven't fully figured out how to do that. I'm guessing I'll need to play around with the RSS feeds or something. If anyone has ideas on how this can be done, please let me know.

I'm also thinking of making it a 3 column layout, although I'm not wedded to that idea.

My goals for the theme are fairly straight forward, but may not be entirely complimentary:

1. Create a 'clean' theme without clutter, that still looks cool;

2. Allow for the various monetization programs to be integrated easily;

3. Supports side bar widgets;

4. Is search engine friendly.

Should be a challenge!
