Chuckle Vision…

I found things quite amusing today, don’t ask why as I have no idea. Firstly on my temporary work to work here in Newport I pass a small independent Windows and Door shop. It’s one of these shops that have a scatty image who’s sole purpose is to provide a service, the image of the actual store is unimportant and they have many home-made and creative signs in the window. Now it is one of these A4 signs, scribbled on with a black bullet tip marker, that made me chuckle. It reads… ‘BIG KNOCKERS? Apply within.’ Now I don’t know if it sells any extra door accessories or maybe well proportioned women staff it, but it worked for me.

And… what is the news coming to? Why do I ask, well I watched the nightly news and was surprised to see that the best story of the day was the fact that a large asteroid is heading towards earth and it would cause a devastating end to the earth. Strange I thought as surely this could have happened a few thousand times before in the whole age of the 3rd rock from the sun and would ridding the planet of us all be a problem to anyone, after all who’d be left the complain? I then saw that it had only a 9 billion to 1 chance of hitting so maybe the scientists can work on the ‘how to stop it’ theory a little longer!
