The government of Mexico had recently engaged in an Ad campaign that some have percieved as being full of hot air. Will the project go limp? Find out in the latest episode of Mostly Weird News. Our stalwart reporter also exposes internet predators on myspace. Shame, shame, what is the world coming to when a 45 year old man can't meet a 14 year old girl to discuss bible studies.

This Guiness is Rippa'

A kangaroo is roaming the green hills of Ireland after escaping a circus near the picturesque port of Kinsale.

"This kangaroo broke loose just before the show while they were bringing him from the cages to the arena. He decided to take a walk but has not returned," said local farmer John Walsh on whose land the 2-year-old male, named Sydney, made his break for freedom.

Circus staff launched a fruitless four-hour search following the escape on Sunday. Once it got dark, the staff went to the bar for boiled potatoes and warm beer. Although they did not find the animal that night, they did get up to some merriment and sang some "right deadly" tunes.

There had since been one unconfirmed sighting of the animal, renamed "Hoppy" by locals and described as two and a half to three foot (76 to 91 centimetres) tall and dark in colour.

Colin Farrell has also been missing but his disappearance may be linked to a 6 day bender which has seen the actor tossed from numerous bars, several hotels, and a brothel in a fishing community, which goes on record to serve "basses, lasses, & asses".

Ride the Rocket: 4 penis wine.

Bionicbuddha has expanded into the field of spirits and the realm long dominated by Seagrams. “We’re looking to upstage the popular Chinese three penis wine by making a Canadian four penis wine”, added bionicbuddha chairman Andrew Carnegie . Mr. Carnegie further added, “we’ll give those Wal-Mart supplying mutha-f*#@ers a run for their money”. For those living in cave for the past 20 years, yes, China does make a three penis wine that consists of one part dog penis, one part seal penis and three parts deer penis. Bionicbuddha has upped the ante by including moose penis to the familiar ingredients. American vice-president Dick Cheney described the drink as “nutritious and robust” adding that it cleared his shingles and improved his memory loss.
Popular film star Jill Kelly added, “I’ve tasted better and somehow I thought the flask would be bigger”. While on set of “You, Me and D.P.”, co-star Chasey Lain reported, “If you wanted to make this stuff more potent you should have added some buck, as in Buck Adams, now that’s yummy”.

Gelaskin contest announcement

Bionic Buddha has partnered with a new sponsor called Gelaskins. They make very cool skins for your ipod, whatever it may be (nano, mini, video, etc) in various designs and styles. Click the image to take you to their home page. You really need to see these things for yourself, pictures do not do it justice or capture how incredible these skins really are, the vibrant colours or technology behind them. But you don't have to wait long to own one to protect your ipod. We will be announcing a simple contest very shortly to give you the chance to get one very easily. Stay tuned and if you have been watching our shows you may have noticed clues already. One cool contest, one cool product.

Pirates of the Caribbean, the real phantom menace

I recently saw Pirates of the Caribbean and realized that it has an eerily familiar theme...cue 20th Century Fox drum roll, followed by text scroll on star field space backdrop: Turmoil has engulfed the British Colonial Empire. There is unrest in outlying trade routes…evil is everywhere...You got me, it’s Star Wars I’m talking about. I must admit that it is going to be awfully difficult to draw comparisons without turning this article into a spoiler but I’ll give it a shot.
I recently discovered that Pirates of the Caribbean is now a trilogy. I will compare it to the only Star Wars trilogy that mattered, the original with Harrison Ford et al.
Watching Pirates, I noticed that Dead Man’s Chest takes off where the original left off. There is a love triangle forming that we are all familiar with. Jack Sparrow played by Johnny Depp assumes the role of devilish rogue Han Solo (Harrison Ford), Orlando Bloom as Will Turner the nancy boy hero modeled after Mark Hamill’s, Luke Skywalker and let us not forget the feisty heroine Elizabeth Swan played by Keira Knightley replacing Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher). The similarities are so close that the only thing that Ms. Knightly’s character didn’t do was call Captain Jack Sparrow a “nerf herder”. Hmmm, Sparrow and Swan? I fully expect that Knightly will wind up with Bloom at the end of it all but, there is this curious battle between light and dark for both Sparrow and Swan. I’m waiting for Darth Vader a.k.a. Davy Jones to pronounce “the force is strong with this one” when he meets Swan.
You have your usual cast of beasties, meanies and other subversive characters that drive the plot. There’s Jack Davenport’s Norrington as Boba Fett and Jack Sparrow’s right hand man Gibbs (Kevin McNally) as Chewbacca. He’s certainly hairy enough to be Chewy. There’s the characters Pintel and Ragetti as R2D2 and C3PO. Finally, while Johnny Depp’s character wasn’t frozen in carbonite at the end of Dead Man’s Chest he wasn’t far off (you’ll see what I mean), setting off another adventure for the final installment. C’mon It’s painstakingly obvious. Does George Lucas know that Disney is ripping off his plot lines?
Somehow though, I don’t think that Dead Man’s Chest will be the only film in the Pirate’s of the Caribbean trilogy that mattered unlike “Empire” was to Star Wars…ouch.
For more Sci-Fi, check out the smashing Adventures of Space Squadron.
Peace.

Calling All Bands

Madonna: From Dunkin Donuts to Blonde Ambition

In June, it was announced that Madonna and her tour dancers, would be the new face of an H&M fashion line. A specially-made "Madonna tracksuit" was also announced as being prepared for the retail chain. This "new" Madonna tracksuit is to be sold exclusively in the stores as well, but there is no word yet on marketing strategy. I have a suggestion...how about a "high mileage and all-season" product line. They could also include some hip hugging jeans for Keith Richards, and some rayon dress shirts for Charlie Sheen.
Making a career of satirizing celebrities' lives is commonplace for many entertainment journalists, but for those who are more interested in knowing the real facts check out this episode of Distortions which disspells any myth that Madonna once took an IQ test and the results were "negative".
