This week we have sites about animals from bugs to sharks - running and jumping (well, sort of), the destruction of the language (what's new there?), Harry Shearer (the voice of Mr Burns, Principal Skinner and other characters in The Simpsons), and an odd rendition of a classic film.

Animal, Vegetable, Video?

Want to see the world as an animal sees it? See this site's QuickTime videos. An enterprising lad straps tiny cameras on to the backs of animals from armadillos to tarantulas and then lets them run off. Very odd. www.aniv egvideo.com/AVV.html

oddly enough

Have you any idea what an 'unplanned operational ground contact terminal structural overstress event' is? It apparently leads to a 'total loss of airframe primary structural integrity'. Some of us would call this a crash. This site lists extremely odd expressions that attempt to hide meaning. Only for those interested in language used for obfuscation. www.pab-opto.de/pers/yuckspeak/intro.html
