George W Bush and the hard shoe shuffle

There’s a new web game based on the Iraqi reporter throwing his shoes at dubya that might cause a smile, even to the Pres himself.

the ABC covers the reuters story here  

you can play one version here and please let me know if you get a top score

I’ve never been a fan of Bush the younger ( or his daddy ) but he did show grace under fire this time, ducking and coming back up to face his attacker. I was expecting him to go bananas!

So apart from an illegal war that’s left 600 thousand plus Iraqi men, women and children dead and failing to regulate or even monitor the corporate cowboys who’ve caused a global economic crisis, maybe he’s not such a bad guy after all.

Meanwhile it took real courage to do what the reporter did and he faces an uncertain future after his arrest despite popular support. Hamdallilla – good luck Habibi. A Salaam Aleikum.

Murphy’s Law Muzzles Mighty Google Voice Search

The Google Voice Search mentioned here last week still hasn’t appeared in Apple’s iPhone Apps store ( A place I love )

Wired worked out why as you’ll see by clicking below

I do like the Apps store more than I should – and some of it is really useful, not just fun – I highly recommend iTalk and it’s computer companion iTalk Sync for recording quality audio on iPhone and wifi’ing it to your PC/Mac.

The other big App for me is FRING – Skype and many other comms on iPhone no matter who your carrier is.
