Swansea gets tango'ed:

http://www.swansea-res.org.uk/news.html

When i first came across this I thought it was pretty funny, but you can see why the residents are pissed off......the film crew had no permission and they even lobbed fruit through some ladys window and smashed some old chaps window pots.......

Aled Edwards’ taxi was covered in sticky pulp in the incident, causing him to be late for work that evening. He asked us “What kind of a world do we live in where fresh fruit is needlessly lobbed down streets like this.” The only consolation we could give him was that a small amount of fruit was recovered and donated to Bryn Mynydd monkey sanctuary.

Not only did tango cause this damage, they didnt even clean up after and just left tonnes of fruit all over the street.......haha

And their offical reply is the icing on the cake:
Sometimes you have to make a mess to dramatise fruit refreshment to the consumer

Now if only I had a dust free room and $15K to spend on this piece of equipment, my vinyl would live forever.

Edit: Oh and to contribute, this is brilliantly random for how fitting his report is to the events that take place.

Haha, laughing at a photo of a handicapped child. I knew there was a reason I harboured a secret affinity with the white haired scary man.

Mute brought this to my attention, but it's pretty unlikely.
It's odd the way in which the ball pauses as if taking a little break before continuing on its journey:

I know dogs are known for being clever and loyal, but this one takes the [dog] biscuit.
BBC wrote:A US dog has won an award for saving her owner's life by dialling a phone number that alerted emergency services to her owner's diabetic seizure.

Belle the beagle triggered a call to an ambulance crew by biting on her owner, Kevin Weaver's, mobile phone.

The dog was trained to detect potential diabetic attacks by licking and sniffing Mr Weaver's nose to check his blood sugar levels and pawing him.

Belle resorted to dialling for help when Mr Weaver fell unconscious.
I like how they say resorted, as if she had the choice to drive him to the hospital as well. I wonder if she can call for Pizza too?

I'd like to see if my cat will dial a phone.
Or even master not vomiting on my pillow.
