Whitehouse Joust A politically twisted version of the old arcade game.

 

My Highscores:

 

Bush Version - up to the Ted Kennedy level

Kerry Version - to the Osama Bin Laden level.

 

Avalanche!

Dodge the falling triangles and collect red dots!

20,800 is my High.

 

Finally, a humorous twist to "Spank the Monkey", it's Whack the Sack!

526 MPH is my best.

Great to see Blake's 7 on there, Wha Don't you? and all those kids programmes from back then!

What a shame the Sykes title sequence isn't included.

I also found this: Vila lives!.

There is a huge B7 community out there. Out of necessity, I recently joined a mailing list populated by sadder folks even more in need of fresh air and vitamins than we are here.

They spend their days speculating on whether Blake is really dead, and how it might have gone on and such things.

Unfortunately for B7 enthusiasts (is there a special name for them?) Paul Darrow (Avon) has dissociated himself from a company which wants to do some kind of a remake because he reckons they aren't being true to what the late Terry Nation would have wanted.

 

Never mind.

 

Did anyone else make their own teleport bracelet out of a Robinson's Orange juice bottle?

Lovely reworking of The Jam's Going Underground...

goingunderground.mp3

 

1.78MB but well worth the download for Londoners...and any potential visitors to the "great" city B)

 

PS Probably not suitable for playing in the office or when your great aunt is round for tea

Staying with the B7 theme for a moment, I once bumped into Jackie Pearce (Servalan) in a former office building that I worked in down Regent Street. It was amazing to almost walk straight into her. She knew that we had clocked her and was totally cool about the whole thing, managing a knowing smile.

 

I have to say that I've always had a soft spot for Blakes 7. I did see that website that for a while was supposed to be doing the remake and it seemed to have Paul Darrow's support, so that must of gone a bit pear-shaped since.

 

If you really want the braclet then look no further!

Most interesting to listen to the interview with Michael Keating.

 

So, were they really all shot? B)

Now you mention it, I once met Paul Darrow. But as you can see he didn't leave a lasting impression. He was acting in a play at the college where I studied.

I do wish you hadn't posted that link Typhoid. I'm depressed now.

 

2 months older than Mr Gates.

 

Me: "If I was as rich as Bill Gates, I'd be richer"

Wife: "How's that then?"

Me: "I'd do bit of window cleaning on the side"

(Thanks to the two Ronnies for allowing me to ruin a good joke)

Blimey!

 

176 Hail marys and 14 Our fathers with six days of fasting, just for this weekend alone!

Anyone beat that?

Piker!

 

Venial Sins

Recite 553 Hail Marys and 43 Our Fathers.

 

Mortal Sins

Consider the implications of what you have done. You must take all steps possible to undo what has been done, and make right what you have done wrong.

 

You should fast for a total of 6 weeks. If this is too much to do at once due to the length of the fast, or infirmity, it is acceptable to break a fast into smaller sections. If you are unsure how long it is safe to fast for, consult a doctor.

 

If your sin also broke the law of the land in which you live, you must confess to the authorities.

Just between meals then. I suggest one could break fast for the odd (and even) snack too.

Just playing with it, but:

 

Venial Sins

 

Recite 3832 Hail Marys and 109 Our Fathers.

Mortal Sins

 

Consider the implications of what you have done. You must take all steps possible to undo what has been done, and make right what you have done wrong.

 

You should fast for a total of 20 weeks. If this is too much to do at once due to the length of the fast, or infirmity, it is acceptable to break a fast into smaller sections. If you are unsure how long it is safe to fast for, consult a doctor.

 

If your sin also broke the law of the land in which you live, you must confess to the authorities.

 

Not bad considering murder is among them. And who knew superstition was a sin? A lot of athletes I know are going to Hell.

 

I am also struck by the sexism inherent in the value placed upon Our Fathers over Hail Marys. Perhaps the Virgin Mother is a touch more vain than God?
