Time is a hungry beast. Jo moved from here to Posterous, and Posterous got gobbled up and spat out. Jo is not actively blogging these days, but his posts have been archived at Jess Harpur's Digital Pasture where the links, images, videos, and audio have been restored

"You'll love this!"



"No I won't."

I can't help it. Whenever someone forecasts my reaction to something which I have yet to experience, it has the effect of predisposing me to the opposite reaction. Perhaps it's just a part of my somewhat contrary nature, an aspect of my personality which has been described, by those I will generously refer to as having a less than generous nature themselves, as being 'bloody minded'.

I prefer to think of it as a reflection of my rebellious tendency to refuse to accept things merely on the say so of others. Am I the only one who baulks at those emails which tell you that if you don't find whatever follows the most hilarious/shocking/fantastic/whatever thing you have ever seen then you are less-than-human/in-need-of-professional-help/dead/whatever? I immediately think that whatever follows cannot be very hilarious/shocking/fantastic/whatever if I have to be told how to react before I've seen/read it.

So, you may, or may not, like/love/hate/feel-indifferent-about the following video, but of course you won't know unless you click to watch. All I will say is that it's by the same guys who gave us the Treadmill Dance.
