This I don’t know what to say WTF!

TIJUANA, Mexico - The police department has issued about 60 slingshots to officers in the violent border city of Tijuana, where soldiers confiscated police weapons two weeks ago on allegations of collusion with drug traffickers. Municipal police spokesman Fernando Bojorquez said Monday that the slingshots, along with bags of ballbearings, were given to officers patrolling areas of the city visited by tourists. Tijuana’s police force of 2,000 officers has been without guns since Jan. 5, but some patrol alongside armed state police.

Quite a grim and disturbing list of movies, though I find this sort of thing absolutely fascinating (the idea that there can be societies far worse than that we live). There’s some great movies listed with a lot I’m still yet to see, definately a good read over at Snarkerati.

George Miller’s vision of an apocalyptic future set in the wastelands of Australia. Total social decay is just around the corner in this spectacular cheap budget gang orientated road movie. Where the cops do their best to lay down the law and the outlaw gangs try their hardest to defy the system. Leather clad Max Rockatansky (Mel Gibson) husband, father and cop turns judge, juror and executioner after his best friend, wife and baby are killed. Here we see the final days of normality of a man who had everything to live for, and his slip into the abyss of madness. With its astounding car stunts, unbelievable bike chases and constant ultra violence Mad Max is the antihero on the road to vengeance and oblivion. (Directed by George Miller).

Definately some movies to grab the next time the video shop is visited.

This hilarious (because it’s true) list of Murphy’s Laws brought a smile to my face, I hope it does for you as well. There’s many more on the website (from all walks of life) but here’s some of my favorites from the technology and computers sections:

Tell a man there are 300 billion stars in the universe and he’ll believe you. Tell him a bench has wet paint on it and he’ll have to touch to be sure. great discoveries are made by mistake.

Computers don’t make errors-What they do they do on purpose.

To spot the expert, pick the one who predicts the job will take the longest and cost the most.

There is never time to do it right, but always time to do it over.

Clicky to go to the list of categories.. there’s probably something that you can relate to!
