Warren Ellis has a picture of a Batman squirt gun from a more innocent age. Whilst it’s technically work safe I wouldn’t recommend clicking in the office. Ten minutes after seeing it I still can’t look at the image without cracking up. Favorite comment: “Funny, I always pictured Bats as being more of a top.”
My sister’s planning to climb the highest peaks in England, Scotland and Wales, conveniently coinciding with one of my Hundred Things. If anyone else is interested in coming along get in touch.

The Wyoming and White House links were found whilst doing rough (very rough) research for the latest Cycling on the Pavement- Wyoming.
I’ve decided, with the Chimp back in the White House, that it’s time to start working on my technothriller satire again. I’m going to put out a few little pieces, throwing together ideas I’d like to use in the novel. Some, like this piece, will be snippets and others will be more self contained. Hopefully over time it’ll all begin to coalesce.
Feedback appreciated.

Smugness moment. BoingBoing links to The Gentleman’s guide to self defence with a cane or umbrella, which is cool and all, but I was there in 2002.
