Crime archives from The Times (London)

January 10th, 2010

No, I’m not going to post crime scene photos or anything.

I’d post these links in my Delicious account, but I’ll forget about them or tag them in some crazy way and never find them again.

(I have this fascination with murder cases. I don’t know why.)

The Jack the Ripper murders

The Moors Murders

Lady Chatterley’s Lover

The trials of Oscar Wilde

Bad day?

December 30th, 2009

Looks like someone is having a bad day. All he needs is a stiff drink and he’ll be able to relax.

i’m not sure if i’m drawn to these because of the colors or if i’m finding them to be really interesting because …. oh, who am i kidding? i was drawn to these because of the variety of colors these suckers come in. if i were an uber fashionista or even remotely interested in fashion, then perhaps i’d appreciate the concept these are supposed to be portraying, but i think the concept is lost on me because i always find these in depth quasi-intellecual introductions to products to be completely pretentious. i want to scream at these people, “if you want people to buy these, all you have to say is, ‘check out the cool colors these headphones come in!’ no need to worry about concept. it’s boring.”

i don’t think i’d find them as interesting as i do if i were to see a pair of these in person, sadly seperated from the rest of the brood.
