If you ever see Shark Attack 3, you'll never look that way at that nice Captain Jack again...

On a completely different note, It's 1:40am, and the poker I was watching on Random Freeview Channel has just finished and one of the few all-night-phone-in quiz programs to have survived the rigging scandal is on. I don't hold out much hope for it: the presenter has just said, in almost exactly these words, "Calls from a mobile will cost an obscene amount more than from a landline. I would advise you to budget your calls". How effective, exactly, is that likely to be?

Yes - I was eating my lunch and watching some strange dial up quiz where you had to name a film beginning with R that was on their list.

Rambo was, Rainman wasn't, Return of The Jedi wasn't ~ but there the bloke was saying "I know I'm really good at whipping up the excitement, but remember you get charged even if you don't get through, so please set yourself a budget."

First bit of post 1

Second bit

I once nearly phoned one of these things when I a bit squiffy. I'm glad sense prevailed.

That's brilliant. I wonder if it works as a line in real life?

I hope not

I feel duty-bound to try and find out.

As I can't you tube from here - what's the line ?

Incidently, if you can Youtube - put dear penis into the search panel.

I think I'll wait to get home from work before I type in those search terms.


I'm very glad no one walked in while at the end of that Shark Attack 3 clip.

The best bit is that it's John Boarrowman saying the line

Oh and with the Dear Penis search, is that the Rodney Carrington song, Letter to My Penis, that you wanted people to watch?

OH, that's probably it... that IS funny.

Pretty much everything Rodney Carrington does is great, I love Dozen Roses

It's his song, but it's done by Dr Jay and Easy Lee - where one plays Rodney, and the other his penis.
