Writing to reach you


Disney...you know, them cartoon people behind the hit Finding Nemo... ...well, they kinda stole the story... :P Franck le Calvez, a french writer made a story and tried selling it as a script for a movie. Nobody would buy it, so he turned it into a childrens book called "Pierrot le poisson-clown", Pierrot the clown-fish. And now Pixar Studios has a hit together with Disney with Finding Nemo... Franck le Calvez says there are far too many similarities for the story not to be plagerized. Pierrot lived in sea aenemons too, and his family died cos they got eaten by a predator fish. And many characters are practicaly the same... Franck le Calvez payed for his 2000 books with his own money, and he might now earn it back, and then some....:) And hes not the only one looking for money...environemental activists are sueing Disney cos now millions of people are looking to buy tropical fish... Finding Nemo made some 670 million dollars by now, and if this goes on more people will sue Disney then greedy parents/kids sue Michael Jackson to get some cash... Message in a bottle... So you are on this desert island, all alone, and think what to do... You could light a fire for when a ship might show up on the horizon... You could write HELP on the beach incase a plane might fly over... Or perhaps prepare a raft that you might be able to sail or paddle back to civilization... You could even try making a radio out of coconuts, a nickel and an orange like MacGyver did in that one episode... Then when you finish your last bottle of rum...you decide to write a note and make a message in a bottle... WRONG! Never make a message in a bottle!! Why not ? Some beach bum found half a bottle of wine after the storms we had here the last couple of weeks... What ? But isnt that great ? A bum and some wine...? Must be his lucky day...? WRONG AGAIN! This bottle was from 1690 and still had some pretty rotten wine in it... THAT'S 1690!!!! Darn...better not drink that...must be what ? 1500% alcohol ? Imagine yourself on that island now...since 1690...i bet you have a lovely tan...;) Yay! JP strikes again! Who ? JP...our Prime Minister Jan-Peter Balkenende...you know...Harry Potter.... Oh , that weirdo... Yeah! Thats him...! How did he strike ? Well, you remember when you type 'miserable' and 'failure' in Google and click "i feel lucky" you get Bush' CV as a result...? Well, JP has one too, try typing "raar" (weird) and "kapsel" (hairdo) in your Google and hit "i feel lucky" you get JP's CV...:P Our JP is funny like that...:) How they do it ? A website asked dutch webloggers to use those words in combination with a link to a certain page...the page being JP's CV...:)...and it finally got to #1 :) Haha! Cant we do that with FaitH ? :P

Black(-E-)Mail People in England get blackmailed at work :P How ? They receive an e-mail that tells em there is a way to get onto the corperate network via internet and access their computer. If they dont send the blackmailer 20 bucks the blackmailer will delete important documents or upload kiddy porn onto their computer at work... Teehee! Silly Brits... The small cash amount causes many people to actually do what is asked...they only become easy targets for next time though... Fly-by, drive-by... Some guy managed to fly his plane over the forbidden zone above New York on his way to show his friends that were with him the Statue of Liberty and Brooklyn Bridge. Oh his way he passed over the UN Headquarters, right after that a police helicopter got him to land. He stated he was sorry for his unawareness of the no-fly-zone and was pardonned....heh... Then there was also the drunk that stole a bus and drove it to JFK... And this is just drunks and idiots...imagine a busload of terrorists... :S Needless to say they now tightened security on busses, ambulances and firetrucks...smart people eh...? :P Jolly Joli According to some poll by BlockBuster America 35% of the american men would like to spend New Years with Angelina Joli. That's a romantic dinner only you cheeky monkeys! She won just barely over Catherine Zeta Jones...awww, oh well, she can change her man's diapers instead.... And the women ? They prefer Ashton Kutcher, with 31%, above Johnny Depp....they must be insane... That Kutcher guy is such a geek! Sheesh! Now Johnny, hes hot, if not a bit old, but hey...

How often do we not wonder, "What is the Chezzie ?" Many say it is but an urban legend, a tale to scare children with. Others say its a more like the mystery of the Yeti, for many say to have sighted the Chezzie, but the proof is often blurry and out of focus. Another common believe is that the Chezzie guards the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow... Yet another rumor is that after witnessing the power of evil the Chezzie joined the armies of darkness and that the Chezzie together with Bert was controlling Saddam and are still in control of Iraq. Another idea is that Chezzie is really Superman, yet we fail to see the resemblance... Whatever the answer is to all these mysteries, one man is said to know...and he vanished from the face of the earth...

Who ? Michael Jackson...kinda... The New York Post today reported Michael Jackson joining the Nation of Islam... On wednesday he joined and changed his name to Jacko X...weirdo...that same night he was officially charged with child-abuse. Nation of Islam is said to be Anti Semetic and anti-homosexuals. Nice group then to join eh ? Jermaine Jackson turned to the Islam in 1989, but a different group. Jackson nolonger listens to his managers but looks for help at NoI instead.
