God bless the internet

What would we do without it? You wouldn’t be reading this for a start and life would generally be much more dull. Even the most pointless of questions can be answered in seconds. Did you know that Mr Greedy of the Mr Men has such short arms that he couldn’t possibly eat? Is his weight problem glandular rather than diet based? But there is barely a day goes by that I am not stunned by the use that people put this revolutionary technology to.

Want to know what sound a contented guinea pig makes? Click here and you can find out. Heard of cow tipping? The redkneck pursuit of getting drunk and then pushing over a cow? Why not try it online here. Not all of these are useful of course. Now shoes is another issue. We all need shoes, but we can’t all afford new ones. Help is at hand though with the growing used shoe market. Once you’ve got your new shoes you may want to consider growing a beard. You may have thought this to be a simple process of not shaving but there is much more to it than that. By a stroke of luck, you can now get beard growing advice on-line!

So you’ve grown your beard, bought some used shoes and are probably by this point barred from the house for getting a little weird. The last refuge of the opressed male is of course the garden shed. Being a competitive sex we of course feel the need to rate our shed and compare it with others. GOOD NEWS!! You can thanks to the internet! But what to do in your new shed? Plants and radio ham may seem the obvious choices but the really keen shed user goes a little further. To progress to really advanced shed use you will of course need to get some power to your shed. Whilst most of us would simpy hook it up to the mains, one American schoolboy decided to build a nuclear reactor in his shed. If I was wearing one I would take my hat off to him! Whilst cheap nuclear power may not be possible in your shed, there are other things you can do. How about building your own hovercraft for example? Surely every mans dream! Floating to the fridge on a bed of air to open a nice cold beer.

Yes, the internet can (and indeed does) provide Facebook, email and countless practical applications it’s the lunacy that I salute. A library can provide words, but it’s the comic book shop that fuels imagination.
