27? U R So Old, Dude

March 15, 2009 at 10:27 pm

TheEye is unimpressed by a paper issued by the University of West Virginia and published in the journal Neurobiology Of Ageing. Apparently your mental ability hits a peak at around the age of 22 and by 27 you are well on the downward spiral. The study of 2,000 men and […]

Happy “Baron Bliss” Day

March 9, 2009 at 7:38 am

Always one for a party, and also feeling much better too, TheEye will be toasting Baron Bliss Day. Unfortunately it is only recognised in Belize but it’s still got to be worth a glass of vin rouge. Henry Edward Ernest Victor Bliss died today in 1926 and gave $2million to […]

And Today Is Election Day…In Belize

March 4, 2009 at 5:50 am

No, not our chance to remove the One Eyed Son Of The Manse. 164 candidates eyeing up 67 seats. Six independents and random politicians representing six different parties. In the last elections, held March 1, 2006, the ruling United Democratic Party (UDP) won 64 of the 67 seats, whereas the […]

No Tea Allowed At A Tea Party

February 28, 2009 at 3:54 am

In 1773 a bunch of Boston Yanks decided to raid a perfectly legitimate trading vessel and offloaded its expensive cargo into the harbour. Shareholders were presumably not happy. This became a trigger for some further minor grumblings in the colonies, but rest assured that we will bring them back into […]

Yeah, Man, Like, Taxes, Yeah, And..Stuff…

February 25, 2009 at 5:34 pm

Recession? What recession. Assemblyman Tom Ammiano from San Fransisco has come up with a double solution. Legalise dope and then tax it. He announced at a press conference on Monday that he had “new legislation related to the state’s fiscal crisis“. The advantage is that you’re also too stoned to […]

Have You Seen This Man?

February 20, 2009 at 1:22 am

Prawo Jazdy, presumed to be a Pole who moved to Ireland to take advantage of the economic boom there, is a wanted man. Apparently guilty, yet still at large and unconvicted of any offence, he has over 50 driving allegations against his name – and a string of varying descriptions […]

Trivia: Two Great Computer Mods

TheEye saw these over on Dizzy and, being a bit of a geek personally, I felt the need to share them.

Texas To Review Official State Dinosaur

February 2, 2009 at 8:25 pm

You’ve got to love this story…there’s a global financial disaster going on, wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, hurricane damage, a budget deficit – the list is huge – but there is a bigger crisis lurking beneath our radar. Far more worrying. Yes, the State Legislature for Texas is going to […]

“Prof Emeritus” TheEye Wishes To Make A Booking

January 28, 2009 at 7:37 pm

Found via The Poor Little Greek Boy and well worth sharing. Every had to register for something on a website? Of course you have. The “Title” dropdown is always Mr, Mrs, Miss and this strange ‘Ms’ thing which TheEye thinks is just a misspelling. ‘Doctor’ might creep in there too […]

When Raccoons Attack

January 27, 2009 at 10:45 pm

There are some newspapers that only bring you the news you really need to read. The Austrian Times is not one of them. We learn the invaluable revelation that Raccoon Bites Off Perverts Penis. Nope, not making this stuff up. A raccoon has bitten off a pervert’s penis as he […]
