I'll have to go with Hakuna Matata for now, I got to get back to work, but I'll keep thinking about it I'm sure.

Lion King, like most Disney animated movies, is a musical.

[Malthus]

More seriously ... "I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow" in O Brother, Where Art Thou?

Good one. I'll throw in Urge Overkill's "Girl You'll Be A Woman Soon." Not written for the movie AFAIK but made widely popular by it, and Mia Wallace dances to it. Similarly, Tito and Tarantula's After Dark from From Dusk Till Dawn.

I'll second "Girl You'll Be A Woman Soon." Mia Wallace dancing to it was hot ... at least, until she ODs on the drugs she finds in her (well, his) coat pocket. Eeeww.

Shit I wasted a page view when I refresh the page, he's hoping this post makes up for it.

I just read about the latest IT thing: Live video streaming, directly and easily on the iPhone.

Immediately it only strikes me as another way for the porn industry to make money, but when the revolution comes to a country with widespread 3g network coverage it could be interesting.

[garbon]

From London?

[Sheilbh]

So the Tories and Lib Dems tried to get rid of the Speaker and lost. Bercow's look to the front bench afterwards:

If we're talking Pulp Fiction then we must also include "You never can tell" by Chuck Berry.

From London?

I think he means Dartmoor?

I would assume the fire / partial building collapse in the east village.

I really don't understand this. I feel so back in the day with my phone only getting 3g.
