Ford Sportka | The Evil Twin
I saw this short film at www.the-eviltwin.co.uk on “The Panel” on Network 2 the other night. Unfortunately, the site is an awful flash site. To watch the “Evil Twin” movie, click on “View Highlights”, and then click on “Clip one”. It’s a tiny box, and I can’t see any download link for a sane version.

The Fark.com Flash Mob will “Laser-Pointer David Blaine” tonight at 9pm. Be there at 8:45pm to “scope the place out and choose a good spot.”
Thanks NTK for the heads up, “if anyone actually makes the effort, they should be able to light him up like the Blackpool illuminations.”
hehe.
NTK will also have a stall at the Back in Time Live 4, described as, “A mammoth weekend of C64 fun, the biggest 8-bit rock concert ever held, and a great retro-music-game-exhibition.” Yes, I’d like to be there.
