Here we are, post number three in the Just Plain Awesome category of Lime Blast, and we have another video (well, I’m not one to buck a trend).

The video starts with a fairly non-descrip introduction by Hugh Grant, who talks about the titular newspapers’ integrity and journalistic practices, and the fact that if they say they have an important announcement to make, it isn’t going to be some obnoxious marketing gimmick…

… then it happens! (watch the video, I don’t want to spoil it)

I don’t know about you, but any institution that has a good sense of humour about itself is good in my books.

Will this make me buy the aforementioned newspapers? Probably not. But I might consider subscribing to their RSS feeds.

The Death and Return of Superman /2012/06/the-death-and-return-of-superman/ /2012/06/the-death-and-return-of-superman/#comments Thu, 14 Jun 2012 09:31:36 +0000 /?p=515 ]]> This blog is, for the most part, (despite, in reality, being nothing more than a personal blog, which could easily be likened to that of blogs by people who have cats) trying its best to find its footing within the blogosphere, and present itself somewhere that people can quality information useful within the Web industry.

To this end, I would suggest that about 90% of this blog’s content is dedicated towards the Web. The remaining 10% is split between personal rants and other such insight into my own life (8%) and personal gaming interests (1%). But what about the last 1%?

Just Plain AWESOME!!!

I’ve set-up a new category dedicated to all the things that I find awesome. I don’t mean just good, or nice, and event excellent - I’m talking mind-blowingly awesome stuff.

To this end, please allow me to present the video which prompted be to create this category:

Even if you’re not into superheroes, or maybe prefer some of the other more interesting superheroes (I can’t say I care at all about Superman myself), this is a video well worth watching just because it is so funny. You might also notice that is has more than just a few famous faces playing the various characters in the film.
