Chimps, they're our closest relatives and one's been president of the free world for the last 8 years, like Planet Of The Apes was a documentary or something. And now here's one riding a segway, and even though he could do with some practice, it can ride it better than Bush could, but that's no real surprise is it.

Watching that little chimp motor his way about got me thinking; they should race these chimps on those segways, like a simian version of Wacky Races, they could supe them up, pimp them out, whatever. Surely that's an entire semester's worth of Japanese game shows right there, and then some, knowing those Japanese. They could bring in some other primates, like gorillas, that'd be interesting, could have the Great Ape Segway Olympics with humans, chimps, gorillas and orangutans all fighting it out to be crowned the greatest of the great apes.

Somebody get Fox News on the phone, I've got an idea for them, they could run it as cutting edge investigative journalism...!

Here's a perfect case of life imitating art, or a computer game, which, depending on which side of the fence you fall, could be art or it could just be a pixel-polygonated escape from reality for fan boys, but anyway.

Here's an article about the release of the second expansion pack for World Of Warcraft, the online game for fanatics, as if anyone needs to be told. It's all pretty straight forward stuff but about a third of the way down we learn of a certain fate that befalls one Scott Hamshere from Bromley, which is in the county of Kent in England.

What happens to him is not just funny, in the schadenfreude vein of humour, but it also, strangely, mimics the gameplay of Warcraft...

A classic case of spawn camping, perhaps? Camped for 18 hours for a rare spawn with an even rarer drop, only to fall asleep 5 minutes before it spawned. Some n00b jumped and KSed him!
