I have just released our latest press offering with the
above title, we have unearthed some interesting facts, like Amazon lost 9% of its
stock value in October, if you want to check it out follow the link: http://www.prlog.org/12020534-has-amazon-finally-been-rumbled.html
Image shows Amazon's new HQ in Seattle.
The article looks at the growing number of disgruntled
businesses that have fallen foul of the great Amazon promise. More and more
businesses appear to be realising that Amazon.com is not the Holy Grail.....far
from it; in fact it could be the thing that actually destroys them.
On other topics, our Jellycat section is finally finished, a few more
pages have been added and the huge lists of International destinations have
been removed, giving the site a cleaner, less cluttered feel. Our Alexa ranking
has again improved dramatically; we have risen by an astounding 400,000 places!
We now stand at 1,140,015 on the entire planet, pretty impressive stuff.I have been sent a brilliant email regarding simple mistakes made by children when writing about the bible and although I am not at all religious, this really made me laugh outloud:
KIDS WERE ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENTS. THE FOLLOWING STATEMENTS ABOUT THE BIBLE WERE WRITTEN BY CHILDREN. THEY HAVE NOT BEEN RETOUCHED OR CORRECTED. INCORRECT SPELLING HAS BEEN LEFT IN.
1. ADAM AND EVE WERE
CREATED FROM AN APPLETREE. NOAH'S WIFE WAS JOAN OF ARK. NOAH BUILT AND
ARK AND THE ANIMALS CAME ON IN PEARS.
2. MOSES LED THE JEWS
TO THE RED SEA WHERE THEY MADE UNLEAVENED BREAD, WHICH IS BREAD
WITHOUT ANY INGREDIENTS.
3. THE SEVENTH
COMMANDMENT IS THOU SHALT NOT ADMIT ADULTERY.
4. MOSES DIED BEFORE
HE EVER REACHED CANADA THEN JOSHUA LED THE HEBREWS IN THE BATTLE OF GERITOL.
5. SOLOMON, ONE OF
DAVIDS SONS, HAD 300 WIVES AND 700 PORCUPINES.
6. JESUS WAS BORN
BECAUSE MARY HAD AN IMMACULATE CONTRAPTION.
7. JESUS ENUNCIATED
THE GOLDEN RULE, WHICH SAYS TO DO UNTO OTHERS BEFORE THEY DO ONE TO YOU.
HE ALSO EXPLAINED A MAN DOTH NOT LIVE BY SWEAT ALONE.
8. THE PEOPLE WHO
FOLLOWED THE LORD WERE CALLED THE 12 DECIBELS.
9. THE EPISTELS WERE
THE WIVES OF THE APOSTLES.
10. ONE OF THE OPPOSSUMS
WAS ST. MATTHEW WHO WAS ALSO A TAXIMAN.
11. ST. PAUL CAVORTED
TO CHRISTIANITY, HE PREACHED HOLY ACRIMONY, WHICH IS ANOTHER NAME FOR
MARRAIGE.
12. CHRISTIANS HAVE
ONLY ONE SPOUSE. THIS IS CALLED MONOTONY.
Aren't Children great!!
On a totally
different track altogether I went to see “Skyfall” at the weekend and have to
say that it was absolutely fabulous, well written, brilliantly acted, Daniel
Craig was outstanding, as was Judi Dench and the habitual baddy Javier Bardem.
It’s been a good week for film, I recorded a Chinese film “The Beast Stalker” and
OK, it’s subtitled, but well worth a look, the storyline is gripping, the action
slick and the cast are completely believable, takes a while to get going but a
real treat if you persevere.
On the music front have just downloaded (legally) a copy of Richard Hawley’s 2002 album “Late Night Final” a real little gem, he is the touring guitarist for Pulp and a former member of the Longpigs, well worth a listen. Also check out this video on Youtube by a guy called Gotye, the song is called “Somebody that I used to know” featuring Kimbra, this is another sublime video.
Only one new page has been created on the Jellycat
section since the last blog and that is: http://www.fleurtations.uk.com/jellycat_fuddlewuddle.asp
which means that this section is now officially finished, but, come the middle
of December the new 2013 Jellycat designs are available for viewing, so stay
tuned for some sneaky previews.
