Volcanologists spy pink ‘dinosaur’ on remote webcam.
“Some wag has glued a pink dinosaur in front of our digital camera,” GNS’s John Callan said.
“A number of people have been emailing us asking what the dinosaur is all about.”
They are not planning to remove it, counting on the sulphur and high acid environment to deal with the creature.

The Beastie Boys are on their way to a political rally. The only thing stopping them is the tyrranical Bush regime. Can you get them across the road safely?
This should do for today’s silly Flash game.
Sounds authentically ripped from our favourite oldskool frog crossing the road game.

In the UK it’s called skiving, in the US it’s called skipping. In Thailand they call it jumping. It is the art of avoiding work. Here in the Wor Zone students are particularly adept at this skill, often managing entire class jumps right under the nose of the teachers.
Today, however I witnessed the most inept display of class jumping I have ever seen in my life. Tellingly it was by one of the most intelligent classes in Matayom 3, who clearly had little experience in the noble art.
It started with an empty classroom 10 minutes into the class. Suddenly five students show up, on asking if their friends would come they said “yes!”
So I sat down and chatted to them for 15 minutes, and thinking that no-one else would show told them that they could get on with some homework they were intent on doing.
I then made my way downstairs planning to have a snidey coffee and an e-mail check in the teachers’ room. No such luck.
As I got down stairs, I spotted the rest of the class furtively moving upstairs, and on seeing me , some of them tried to make a run for it, but I got behing them and shepparded them into the classroom. With only 10 minutes to spare, I decided to ask them why they were late and to extract information about which teacher made them late…the umming and arring they made made me smell a rat.
Suddenly at the door with 5 minutes before the end, two more students appeared at the door. One shouts “May I come in please?”, in an angry voice and storms to her desk slamming down her books, and bursts into tears.
I ask what is wrong and she says,
“My friends tell me we are jumping, but they don’t tell me they come here! They shit!”
The cat’s out of the bag. I don’t know whether to be amazed at the English ability, shocked at the swearing, or angry at the deception. The three combine into amusement. I give some vague lecture about it being sad that intelligent students should be so stupid, and don’t listen to your friends if they want to jump and you don’t and just left it at that. What’s the point, they’ve shot themselves in the foot and they look stupid in front of a teacher. Lost faces all round.
I have already touched on Silly Season and how every afternoon for three weeks is being spend sitting on arses eating lookshin or playing volleyball or basketball. There’s really no excuses for jumping at the moment, especially considering the inevitable antics next week. Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday is the annual Songkhla schools’ athletics competition, where all classes are cancelled and we all sign in at the stadium for three days.

Alice in Wonderland Pop-up book
This is an awesome flash animation of an Alice in Wonderland Pop-up book. I’d like to see a fuller version though.

Population 1000 Another extreme oddity from B3ta. I am often accused of having waaay too much time on my hands. This page would suggest that others have more than me. 1000 named characters handdrawn in one week, (and scanned very badly, but you really get the idea that this guy has been abusing a notebook at least.)
B3ta pointed out
Most of it suggesting that the artist is having a breakdown.
