Accident By Car

Last night at the top of the 10 o'clock news on ABC last night, a car crashed into the Chicago studio only a few yards from the anchor who was "On Air." There is some suspicion of the accident being intentional. An accident, or an assassination attempt?

God Save the Queen (YouTube Style)

The British Monarch has launched a new YouTube Channel. *THE ROYAL CHANNEL* The channel is already populated with all sorts of videos about the monarchy, including the wedding of the Queen Mother in the 1920s. The video on the homepage is the Queen broadcasting the first television broadcasting of the annual Christmas Address from 1957. I must say that it is quite interesting. The Queen likes poetry. See it posted below for your viewing pleasure.

God Save the King/Queen

Please see the lyrics to God Save the King/Queen, the national anthem of England. King and Queen are interchanged depending upon the gender of the ruling monarch. The fourth verse is often omitted because it isn't quite nice and the first verse is often the only one sung. We also have for your viewing pleasure, British fans singing at a football (soccer) match.

*God Save the Queen*

God save our gracious Queen
Long live our noble Queen,
God save the Queen:
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us:
God save the Queen.

O Lord, our God, arise,
Scatter thine enemies,
And make them fall:
Confound their politics,
Frustrate their knavish tricks,
On thee our hopes we fix:
God save us all.

Thy choicest gifts in store,
On her be pleased to pour;
Long may she reign:
May she defend our laws,
And ever give us cause
To sing with heart and voice
God save the Queen.

Lord, grant that Marshal Wade,
May by thy mighty aid,
Victory bring.
May he sedition hush and like a torrent rush,
Rebellious Scots to crush,
God save the Queen.

LEOPARD RELEASE; the wrap-up

So it it's two days since the release and I'm back at a familiar work station now running OS 10.5 Leopard. It is quite nice although there were some hang ups with the installation on a mac without an external drive. At the mall one of the employees had died his hair, you'll see why this is significant when you look at the picture. The whole group of employees was assembled as we entered the store and started cheering. As of December, all Ostrich Blog workstations will be converted. In less related news, I finally used my hat at a halloween party. It didn't pull from both cans evenly, and if you try to use only one can, liquid spills out the other tube. Soda fizzes and is hard to stop from flowing. Thanks to all of you for reading.

LEOPARD RELEASE; The Saga Continues

We're still here. We along with a group of friends came to the mall last Saturday and I (the one currently typing) bought a party had that allows the user to put beverage cans in the top and drink through it. Apparently other people had bought lasers from the very same store and were shining them around the mall. The security guard came up to us and told us we weren't allowed to use any such devices. We had a hard time convincing the him that we didn't have one. Well, we saw the very same guy who was doing crowd control for the release. I reminded him of the incident and told him that we didn't have any lasers. He apologized and said that he was just doing his job. The hat seen below is the same kind except mine is yellow. In recent news someone took a picture of us blogging. So for all of you ignorant PC users out there who don't know exactly what Leopard is, it is the new mac operating system OS 10.5. Imagine windows Vista, but for mac. It will be most certainly better than Vista, and guess what, there's only one version, and guess what it's $129.00. The family pack is only $200.00. Time to go, we'll update later

THE LEOPARD RELEASE; Media From the Mall

Read the below post.....

Meanwhile in front of the store:

THE LEOPARD RELEASE; the Scoop

We are here at the Leopard release at the Apple Store Walt Whitman! There are approximately 1.5 hours left until the release at 6PM here on the east coast. The store would only allow ten people to stand in front of it because otherwise entrances to other stores would be blocked by the line. We've been moved to some sort of hallway of the main mall and we're somewhat out of site.
One woman was pissed because she couldn't get into the apple store because they closed it to install Leopard onto all of the computers. She asked why people needed to get it as soon as it came out. Her daughter said it was like Harry Potter and they walked away. Some idiots got taken off the line and escorted out of the hallway by a security guard. On their way out they were loudly chanting "Window, Windows, Window, Windows" as we (A-Fox and F-Cat) silently chanted "Idiots, Idiots, Idiots Idiots." We had a little blogging station set up on a garbage can that was holding the door open. The security guard recently replaced it with a proper door wedge. Please see the before and after pictures of the set up above. We will update you with any more recent happenings. We hold the position of 11 and 12 in line presently.

Very Truly Yours, and if you are a PC user GET A MAC!

Weird Punctuation

The interrobang is a combination of the exclamation point (!), and a question mark (?). Though it seems fake, it is an actual punctuation mark. A sentence ending with an interrobang either (1) asks a question in an excited manner, (2) expresses excitement or disbelief in the form of a question, or (3) asks a rhetorical question. A reverse and upside down interrobang (combining ¿ and ¡), suitable for starting phrases in Spanish, Asturian, and Galician, is called by some a gnaborretni.
Martin K. Speckter is the inventor of the interrobang (1962). The French equivalent is "point exclarrogatif."




The irony mark is a backward question mark. The irony mark (؟) (French: point d’ironie) is a punctuation mark that purports to indicate that a sentence should be understood at a second level. An irony mark may sometimes be referred to as an irony point, snark, or zing. Its usage is extremely rare. This mark was proposed by the French poet Alcanter de Brahm at the end of the 19th century. At the end of a sentence, put a backward exclamation point (؟) to indicate irony if it is to be known to the whole audience that the text is ironic.Irony is often intended to be misunderstood by a certain portion of its audience, either to enforce close attention or to create a boundary between those "in the know" and those who miss the point. Explicit use of an irony mark in such a circumstance would defeat the purpose of using "le point d'ironie."

MATH PROBLEM

Ive heard the greatest real life application for a math problem. Its about parabolic and linear systems

A renegade dictator lauches a scud missle at a US troop installment. The troops launch a Patriot missle to intersect it. Due to satellite imaging. We see the world as a grid. The scud missle is stationed at (6,0). Its path can be represented by the parabola y=-X(X)+8X-12. The Patriot missle was lauched from the point (0,0). Its path can be represented by the line y=x. Graph the system of equations. Find the point(s) where the Patriot missle will intercept the scud missle.

I don't know about you readers, but that's the most creative math problem I've ever seen.

7. Thats Why He Doesn't Paint People




6. Patogura Suichi










5. Fat Clown With No Friends

4. Sunday, Bloody Sunday!




3. Developers, Developers, Developers, Developers




2. The Ostrich

Seeing as this is our first post, we should explain the title of this blog. This blog has NOTHING to do with the bird. The Ostrich is the name of a funky face. Below are the directions for making the face.


DIRECTIONS

1. Close your mouth.
2. Drop your chin down as far as possible while still keeping your mouth closed.
3. Raise your eyebrows as high as you can.
4. If possible, flare your nostrils.
5. Extend your face/head as far forward as you can.

TIPS

1. The Ostrich is fun to do on the highway or on the road and see the people's reactions.
2. Keep practicing (practice makes perfect).
3. Timing is everything
4. Slightly tilt your head to the right for added effect.

WARNINGS

1. Know when people have had enough. Some dudes don't like it when you get all up in their grillz.
2. Keep your distance when Ostriching strangers.
3. Don't get too close to the ostrichee or you might get pushed or fall forward.
4. It's just a myth, but it is said that if you Ostrich too much your face might get stuck like that.

Au Champs Elysees

Lyrics

Je m' baladais sur l' avenue
Le coeur ouvert à l' inconnu
J' avais envie de dire bonjour
A n' importe qui
N' importe qui et ce fut toi
Je t' ai dit n' importe quoi
Il suffisait de te parler
Pour t' apprivoiser
Aux Champs-Elysées
Aux Champs-Elysées
Au soleil, sous la pluie
A midi ou à minuit
Il y a tout c' que vous voulez
Aux Champs-Elysées
Tu m' as dit : "Jai rendez-vous
dans un sous-sol avec des fous
qui vivent la guitare à la main
du soir au matin"
Alors je t' ai accompagnée
On a chanté, on a dansé
Et l' on a même pas pensé
A s' embrasser
Aux Champs-Elysées
Aux Champs-Elysées
Au soleil sous la pluie
A midi ou à minuit
Il y a tout c' que vous voulez
Aux Champs-Elysées,
Aux Champs-Elysées
Aux Champs-Elysées
Au soleil sous la pluie
A midi ou à minuit
Il y a tout c' que vous voulez
Aux Champs-Elysées,
Aux Champs-Elysées
Aux Champs-Elysées
Au soleil sous la pluie
A midi ou à minuit
Il y a tout c' que vous voulez
Aux Champs-Elysées,


Tranlation

I trotted on the avenue my heart opened to the unknowns
I wanted to say hello to no matter whom
No matter whom, it could be you, I'd said anything to you
It was enough to speak to you, just to calm down.

You said to me "I was pinned in a basement with fools
Who live guitar-in-hand from dusk till dawn"
Then I accompanied you, one sang, one danced
Any one who did not even think of embracing oneself

Yesterday evening two unknowns and this morning on the avenue
Two in love all dazed by the long night
And to the Star of Concord, form an orchestra with thousand cords
All the birds at day-break singing for the love
