TheEye was rather amused to see the following series of news items sequentially on the Pravda website. You don’t need to read them really as they are mostly propaganda and tractor production statistics. Just read the titles here…the oldest one is at the top, so feel scared as you read […]

In ridiculous news today, TheEye has been tipped off about plans by architect Tom Stebbings to build a nine-foot wide house. It’ll be three storeys high and will be built on the site of a garage (pictured) in Albert Street, Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk. Somehow there will be two […]

This article in the excellent “The Register” Lists more of the woes of the jolly old Eurofighter (Typhoon to you & me, but I suspect not to our square headed co-owners), and along with it, the woes of the Jolly old RAF. Apparently we are now “pooing on our own […]

A very entertaining part of TheEye’s day is casting its gaze over The Croydonian’s site. The regular updates on DPRK-Watch are always good value for money. As such stories are covered excellently there, the glance is therefore diverted southward to a less entertaining story but still one which ends in […]

Always on the lookout for that final stocking-filler, TheEye happens upon this book called “Toujours Tingo: Weird words and bizarre phrases“. Compiled by Adam Jacot de Boinod, it lists weird words and bizarre phrases from around the world. The “tingo” of its title is an Easter Island word, meaning to […]

Anonymous? TheEye is and needs to remain so. TheEye is known to those to whom it wishes to be known and is unknown to others. Keeping one’s job requires political neutrality and a politically slanted blog would therefore be awkward to say the least. TheEye’s gaze, however, moves across a […]

As a non-corporeal being TheEye cannot have committed a sin. However, as the picture shows, souls have been literally weighed for purity in the past. With a newly-found and certain nervousness about one’s lack of physical being, TheEye is worried that eBay has now banned the selling of one’s soul. […]

It comes as a blow when towering politicians and journalists of our time pass on, and TheEye was saddened to see that Conor Cruise O’Brien is no longer with us. Although 91 is a fine innings for anybody, The Cruiser managed to cram in more in that time than most […]
