Robot experiments gone wrong

Okay, I'd have to be seriously friggin' altered to get excited about this. Here's a new "project to develop technologies and methodologies for human-robot interaction that incorporate the rhythmic properties of human interactive behavior".

Milltown

It's the 19th anniversary of the Milltown Cemetery attack. After the Brits finally got around to returning the bodies of the Gibraltar 3 to Belfast, a funeral was set for today. There were a lot of people there, as is the norm for a martyr's funeral.

Michael Stone, the silly ass Loyalist motherfucker that he is, decided that tossing a few grenades and firing into the crowd would be a good idea, and he might get rid of a number of innocent civilians in the process ('course, in his mind since they were Catholic they weren't innocent). Unfortunately, this is one case where the traditional emptying of the magazine over the coffin didn't help- nobody figured out it was an attack until too late.

He took out three people, only one a Volunteer, Kevin Brady, who Stone shot while he was trying to take the Loyalist prick's weapons away. The crowd caught him as he turned tail, and beat the ever-living piss out of him. Alas, he only served 7 out of his 688 year sentence, due to the Good Friday releases.

Drunk Squirrel

While I don't advocate giving booze to animals, ones that eat fermented fruit are hilarious.

Gibraltar

Missed the anniversary by 2 days, but 19 years ago on March 6 three volunteers were getting blown away on Gibraltar by the SAS. They had no weapons, but the Brits riddled 'em anyway. Here's a tribute, with views from Long Kesh and the Hunger Strike. Upthera!
