I help put this video together with my Dad about a year ago and completely forgot to post it up here. The basis for the video is an inspirational speech John F. Kennedy gave to Dail Eireann during his visit to Ireland in 1963. A version of this video was later used at a conference to launch the Gateway Ireland project headed by Riverdance creator, John McColgan. The conference was attended by some of the most influential people in Ireland, in both the arts and business, and it was an honour to have our video begin the day’s proceedings.

Love this Taiwanese animated news report about the bailout. It’s got everything - Biffo, Free Cheese and even Father Ted. The website that put it together is called Next Media Animation TV. They famously made this video covering the Tiger Woods story last year and have since started catering to a wider international audience. You can follow them on Facebook here.

“This is North Norfolk Digital: Sustaining and maintaining our core listenership in an increasingly fragmented market place… I just realised I read that from an internal memo… Wasn’t for you to hear. Sorry! Sorry!”
Alan Partridge has bounced back AGAIN and this time he’s landed himself a choice mid-morning spot on North Norfolk’s most popular digital radio station. It’s great to see Alan back. He’s easily my favourite comedy character. Considering this is sponsored by Fosters (not Director’s Bitter?!?) and produced specifically for the internet this could have been incredibly lazy and unfunny, but actually it’s really sharply written and just as funny as ever. No doubt this will re-ignite the rumours of a Partridge movie, which has been in the works since 2005… “Jurassic Park!”
Funny. Disturbing. Funny. Disturbing. Disturbing. Disturbing. Funny. Funny. FUNNY. Watch this to the end. Brilliant.
A recent ad for the Poseiden Undersea Resort reminded me of the Wisaki Corporations ambitious pre-Bust plans for three man made islands off the coast of Dublin. Sadly it’ll probably never happen now. Pity, I love giraffes.
