The snark intensifies

Many of us have long enjoyed satirical Web sites such as Duffelblog or the Babylon Bee.  Now comes news that IMAO is putting up political satire as well.  It now has a sidebar heading “IMAO Headlines”, containing some truly funny “fake news” stories. Here’s an example. SAN FRANCISCO (AP) – A local software innovator has created… Continue reading The snark intensifies

Star Wars – Australian edition

This parody fan movie dates from 2013, but until reader Snoggeramus directed my attention to it, I’d never heard of it.  Half an hour of creative and Australian-sense-of-humor funny – what’s not to like?

Sadly, Mr. Clarke died of a heart attack last weekend, while climbing Mount Abrupt in the Grampians… Continue reading A sad farewell to John Clarke
