Fink's Links #12

Time for another slice of hot, tasty internet pie, this week it's cherry flavoured... ;)

A picture (not quite worthy of Banksy, but a nice try) entitled "Up here, silly"...

The incredible news report (archive) of the "Last flight from Da Lang (1975)"...

The result of the (now completed) "Polish postcard prank" that was up for auction on ebay a while ago... ;)

Some rather quirky coat-hangers...

Scans of article entitled "Automatic Food Cooker Runs by Exhaust Heat of Car" from 1930...mmmm...that lead-loaded texture! ;)

Telegraph news story including the line "His brother, a chef, claimed a layer of tomatoes was not the appropriate way to finish off a shepherd’s pie, and responded by hitting him over the head with a shovel"...

Load up the lunch box with a tasty The Bible Bar (which I imagine helps you work, rest and pray)... ;)

Guy builds a wooden rollercoaster in his back garden (with bonus video goodness)!

Very brave photographer take a snap (with huge zoom lens) of the long walk ahead of a Bomb disposal technician in Northern Ireland (during the troubles)...

Snoop with a blogger who somehow got hold of a backup of the network share used during the development of the unreleased sequel to infocoms hugely successful Hitchhikers Guide text adventure...lots of email snippets and even executable game code to play with, amazing stuff!

And finally, the sad attitude of the French when it comes to preserving some of their unique history (and I quote) "The RATP are not poets. They are a public transport company and committed to their renovation programme"...

Anyway, we'll leave the French to get on with it, previous links are here, more from the internets bulging pipes next week... ;)
