All Seeing Eye

A Taiwanese animation of the Dominique Strauss-Kahn nonsense was always on the cards, and here it is. Nothing in English, unfortunately (will keep an eye out for that) but it’s pretty self-explanatory. Enjoy.

No idea if this is true, but it deserves to be: Orville Smith, a store manager for Best Buy in Augusta, Georgia, told police he observed a male customer, later identified as Tyrone Jackson of Augusta, on surveillance cameras putting a laptop computer under his jacket. When confronted, the man […]

The Osama-Caught-With-Porn story has launched a thousand puns. Max Farquar has a great go here, for example. The ever-entertaining New York Post…for the benefit of UK readers it’s an honorary red-top….gives us this blunt version

…but not in quite the way you’d imagine. From ThisIsGloucestershire, one of the most tenuous articles TheEye has spotted in years. Might as well quote the whole thing so that you don’t think you’re missing anything of the detail: OWNERS of parrot Seve Ballesteros have today said they were shocked […]

Tonight, Question Time comes from Shefffield; described by George Orwell as “the ugliest town in the Old World“. Once the only city with a national park within its boundary (since 2010 it isn’t) and unsuccessfully nominated as UK City of Culture (2010 again; bad year, eh guys?) things haven’t been […]

Intrepid global scoop-seeker microdave has been in bloodhound mode today. Seeking out the hottest news on the stands. And today it is….the relaunched Sunday Sport. We’ve documented microdave’s dash between petrol stations for a copy and we’ve been spellbound during his between-meals search for truth. Awesome stuff. And here it […]

TheEye has threatened promised a very occasional series of old pictures from my home of Gibraltar. The first showed searchlights over the Rock in 1940, and here’s the next installment from the archives. Inspired by Subrosa’s very successful first LiveChat which saw the SNP sweep to power in Scotland on […]

From IHateTheMedia: When George Bush said, “You’re either with us or you’re against us,” he knew exactly what he was talking about. Here’s how two Melbourne, Australia newspapers headlined the Bin Laden assassination in side-by-side street racks. What have Osama bin Laden and Maddie got in common? Both had their […]
