Live Countdown to The Chaser


http://www.countdowntothechaser.com.au/

People reading out live how long until Chaser's War on Everything is back... and talking about other crap. It's pretty random, you can even call them on the dedicated mobile: 0424875224

Furry Lobster

Check out this cranking crustacean...

"Marine biologists have discovered a crustacean in the South Pacific that resembles a lobster or crab covered in what looks like silky fur."

Mexico Downtime



Our camera broke two weeks ago, so nothing to do but wait for it to be repaired (not under warranty the bastards), do some touristy shit, and drink beer. The roof of Sam Barrera's Aunty's apartment is a good spot for some 'technology failure cheer up beers'.








The Teotihuacan pyrmaids are a few hours out of the city. Lots of annoying tourists, unfortunately... Obviously Americans are the worst, followed by the French (who are possibly French canadian). Australians are okay though...










The Aztec canals at Xochimilco are about the best place i can think of for a party. Old women rowing up to you to sell you a bucket of beer, bands rowing up to offer you songs, and just when you've had enough beers to be a little peckish, people paddling their way towards you with various snacks, roast maize and more beer.








































Anyway, the camera should be fixed by friday for $300 US, so we can start filming again...
Adios amigos.
