Preses ģēnijs XII

Vēl viens ne tik grūts GOP izaicinājums, found here from the Scottish TV website. Kas vainas tālāk sniegtajam stāstam??

Mazliet britu humo(u)r

A short clip from the brilliant show, Quite Interesting. The start of the discussion is in regards to cochineal bugsalthough they refer to them as beetles! (see buggirl)

Genius of the Press XI

This genius of the press is extra special, not for its difficulty, but for its redundancy. I found the same story carried on two separate sources, with different imagesand both equally incorrect! I can imagine that it won’t take long for someone to point out exactly what’s wrong with these stories (hint, there . . . → Lasīt vairāk: Genius of the Press XI

I’ve been a little behind
