Well, I guess there's just no privacy left for any of Earth's critters [^].
“I'm an artist: it's self evident that word implies looking for something all the time without ever finding it in full. It is the opposite of saying : 'I know all about it. I've already found it.'
As far as I'm concerned, the word means: 'I am looking. I am hunting for it. I am deeply involved.'”

So, how long before we get Puffer Pushers in the inner cities? 
A whole new breed of adverts will be needed:
"Cod? Just say NO!"

It's Japan, for Pete's sake! Japan is the very definition of weird (at least to most other cultures)! Have you seen 'I survived a Japanese Game Show'? They do the strangest things!

I try very hard not to think about Japanese game shows, used underwear dispensers, and so forth. Even the Japanese girlfriend I had for a few years couldn't get me interested in them. Though she did introduce me to Tempura and Teriyaki - both I which I still enjoy from time to time.

Bill, the morning-cum-breakfast news on Auntie had an interview yesterday with two of the team that made that series. It was rather funny listening to them talking about the so-called legal highs of the maritime communities.
One of the spy cameras hidden in a squid was apparently attacked by a large fish and was seen no more. I'm looking forward to seeing it all on good old Auntie.
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

Code project has updated the Quick Answers section nicely. But there is one issue on 'Unanswered' Tab. Which is it shows the Answers as the 0. Which is not needed. B'cos we came to the unanswered section. So my suggestion is given the 'View count' instead of that. What's your thoughts ?

I could see using a variant of the illusion as a theft deterrent tool.
Would love to see the reaction of people to the creepy mannequin in the corner that watches you as you shop.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Thanks for that. I've had one of these printed and sitting on a shelf for years (I'm looking at it right now), but the file I printed it from was lost a long time ago.

CP's Daily Build just hit me and saw this:
Quote: 2013 is almost feature-complete and we're now preparing for a very, very big 2014. Some of you have already been invited to take a sneak peak but even that is merely the tip of the iceberg. Let me know if you want to join the beta program.
What the 'beta program' about?

Just like Microsoft, CP operate a Beta testing system where you can test out features before they are released to the general public, and bugs can be found, reported and fixed before they escape into the wild and annoy customers. Only once the product is ready, and as bug-free as the hamsters can make it, is it released to the production servers.
This is only slightly different to the Microsoft Beta Program, where the customer pays for the untested software, and the bugs don't get fixed anyway...

So contact CP rather than asking in the Lounge: email chris at CP.
