Things are not always what they look like…

Pretty funny! Enjoy and have a good weekend chaps!

Awesome campaign!

LOL! I don’t know which one I would choose…

For sure all of you sang and “danced” (placing both hands on parts of body as they are mentioned) the “head, shoulders, knees and toes” when you were young, today I don’t know why I’ve come to work singing it all the way, surrealist!

Anyway, if you can’t remeber it, here you are:

“Head, shoulders, knees and toes,
Knees and toes.

Head, shoulders, knees and toes,
Knees and toes.

And eyes, and ears, and mouth,
And nose.

Head, shoulders, knees and toes,
Knees and toes.”

Or may be you prefere watch U2 singing the classic… weird!

Last week I finally had a chance to go to check out the remains of the Cans Festival that took part few weeks ago in London (I couldn’t make it then because was so crowded was imposible to go in), where the international artists invited by Banksy decorated the tunnel (used as a taxi run in the days before Eurostar decamped) close to Bakerloo.

If you have not gone yet, you are able to check out the stencils for yourself over the next six months. 100% must be seen!

I found this on the net during one of my busy days at work. I have just had the vision of meeting with your friends to drink beer and work in one of these killer robots and It seems to be a great plan! The first thing we have to do is finding a cool name for the robot. The first one that comes to my mind is “Matador XP”. Any ideas?

Take care.

Hey,

Here is a vid of Michael Gondry that I love! He explains what the video is about so I don’t have much to say! This guy is a star!

Cheers,

I have already talked you about them (Sigur Ross), when I talked about my favourite videos of all time. Here is one I had not seen then. These guys are awesome! So much talent, so different to all the rest. Just imagine how difficult is to find your own sound today when there are so many bands in the market. But here you got these guys doing something so different and so good. The videos are brilliant. Same thing, childhood and touching images!

Hope you like it! Hopefully I’ll see them soon in Benicassim.

I guess that most of you living in the Uk have seen this tv commercial. But for those who haven’t there you go! Probably one of the best commercials I have seen in a very long time!

Enjoy it!

Guys,

Here I am again. As you could see in one of my previous post I am quite interested in Japan lately I am even considering to go there for holidays this summer. Watching videos about Japan I have found this crazy pool! That is insane. Where is the water? I am sure that being a safeguard of that pool is not an easy job. I don’t know if I’ll go to Japan this summer or no but trust me, there is not a single chance I swim in that pool!

Cheerio,

Nacho

Friday! Please check this song from The Teenagers (great French band) out!

I know is a bit rude for girls but such an awesome vintage video deserve by far to be at frucomerci.com

Enjoy!

How do you do!

Another quite day at work so I am going to drop this little post! I was watching some Neil Young videos on youtube and somehow it has come to my mind this brilliant cover to the Rolling Stone’s Wild Horses played by Guns & Roses in Paris. I love today’s music but I have got a bit nostalgic watching this video. I just wanted to share this with you and point out a couple of things:

- How cool was the 90’s rock & roll look! Get away all that EMO thing and bring me back the alcoholic and trouble making Rock Star dress with leather pants and cowboy boots.

- The best times for rock and roll finished when guitar players stop smoking while they were playing.

All the best and enjoy the afternoon!

This little animal is called the Naked Mole-Rat and is from Africa.

So if you are having a bad day and feeling sorry for yourself, remember:?

You could look like a dick with buck teeth.

How do you do,

Here I am again. I don’t know much about surf but I have always thought there are only 3 kinds of surfers. Those who surf to get girls, those who like being in the beach getting a nice body and those who are f@cking nuts and really love it. This guy is definitely in the third kind. This is a terrific video including the song (isolate by bender)! Enjoy it but if your job is similar to mine (working in front of a laptop) you are going to feel pretty miserable watching this!

All the best,

Pilun

Hiya!

Here is some find e-mail that a bloke from my job sent to me! I feel identified by 44 of these signs! Maybe I have been here for too long,

• 1. You don’t even bother looking out of the window when you get up in the morning to check what the day is like. You know it is OVERCAST

• 7. You have memorised the bus route home and manage to get back every time even when you’re half conscious half drunk beyond the edge of reason.
• 8. You don’t think twice about buying a packaged sandwich.
• 9. A sunny lunchtime means searching for a patch of grass and stripping off practically down to your underwear.

• 17. You realise your sunscreen is the stuff you originally brought from home with you…..yes that is Midlands postcode on the price label.

• 20. Seeing men wearing a suit in a pub is relatively normal.
• 21. You have given up complaining about the Victorian-like banking services offered, being in a line for an entire lunch break is now just acceptable.

• 23. Coming to work with a hangover is entirely accepted and indeed expected at least once a week following cheapskates.
• 24. You snigger at the price when you buy a round whilst visiting mates in other cities.

• 27. The ink from your oyster card has begun to blend with your skin, yes your palm is NOT supposed to be blue.
• 28. ?300,000 is an acceptable price for a box room above a newsagents.
• 29. Unsolicited friendliness from strangers is met with you looking directly at the floor, cos let’s face it, they’re either going to ask you for money or tell you about God.
• 30. You’ve become accustomed to the clipboard crew slalom on the high street and now you’re ducking and diving past the chuggers like a pro without an ounce of eye contact.
• 31. you expect 15% gratuity to be automatically added when your bill is delivered to your table, after all it’s not up to you to decide whether the staff have earned it
• 32. You begin to pack summer clothes for the tube journey and a suit & raincoat for a quick change in the Westminster public loos
• 33. You know the Underground replacement bus service drivers by name and shift
• 34. The bloke sitting across from you on the tube seems strangely familiar, yet you wonder when did you start using words like “bloke” and why does “tube” seem like a normal word for a train?
• 35. Everyone past of the Watford gap to your belief is northerner.

Cheers,

Pilun

WOW!!!

Thanks to Nina I have read this article telling that a free software (the result of several years of hard labour by a small team at Microsoft Research) has been launched today and will effectively turn every computer that downloads it into a mini-planetarium capable of displaying high resolution images of millions of stars, planets and other celestial bodies.

“The WorldWide Telescope (WWT) is a Web 2.0 visualization software environment that enables your computer to function as a virtual telescope?bringing together imagery from the best ground and space-based telescopes in the world for a seamless exploration of the universe.”

I am going to play aroud right now!! Or should I say when I arrive home?

thanks Nina!
