I Find That a Little Johnnie Walker Blue Label Also Heals the Dryness of the Place

Engirsh sign: Five reasons to drink sake.

I like the third reason to drink sake: “for reasons”; there’s a certain Zen koan quality to it.

Of Course, He COULD Be a Guy Dressed Up as Henry VIII…

…but let’s just say that I have my doubts and think that he did indeed misspell “tutor”:

Jeans from the Seventies

Here’s something unusual: a 1970’s ad for jeans in which the clothes and hairstyles don’t look terribly dated (well, maybe the big-buttoned pockets on the blue-coloured jeans might seem a bit odd today):

1970s ad for h.i.s. jeans: 'Jeans that turn a dude into a stud.'

And how ’bout that guy in the middle? Who knew Nick Nolte did modelling work?

I’d Have Given the Kid the Mark for Item 2

Via Reddit, here’s a picture of a kid’s answers to an English test:

'Opposites' test in which a kid said that the opposite of 'pro' is 'noob'.

I’d have given the kid full marks for number 2 and deducted half-points for putting ‘live’ instead of ‘life’ as the opposite of ‘death’ and for adding an l to ‘hopeful’.

"You Can’t Rap" by Example

I was amused by the single by Example titled You Can’t Rap, which sounds like a strage gene-splice of the Gorillaz and Fiddler on the Roof, peppered with Alison Moyet’s laugh from Yazoo’s Situation. I heard it earlier this week on Tom Robinson’s show on BBC 6 Music. Here are the lyrics to its chorus:

You can’t rap, my friend

You’re white and you’re from Fulham

Please put down the mic

There’s no way you can fool them

Don’t be stupid, you won’t get that far

Turn your back on hip-hop, Rob, and go and play guitar
