"Magical goo" that's impact resistant. To test a reporter smacks a man on the head with a shovel.

Sure would like to see that. Too bad the embed isn't there. Damn kids posting on the internet...

No... I see the vid box, (light gray, 4:3 aspect graduated gray at the top,) and when I pass my mouse pointer over it I see a black outline, also 4:3 aspect where the vid is usually displayed. If I click, then the black outline disappears and never presents itself again unless I reload the page. Nothing

Thanks, but I can't access youtube from where I work. If I click the link I get a nasty company message that berates me for being so undedicated to my job, and threatens me with termination should I continue to attempt accessing such wasteful and, possibly, morally bankrupt sites. When you embed the video here, however, I can watch whatever you link to without an issue.

Man THAT's great therapy. Everybody should be able to whack someone on the head with a shovel. It's such a great stress-relief!

Must be something they put in place where I work. They complain a lot about vids taking up bandwidth. (They've already shutdown access to any kind of music site, myspace, chats, you name it. Anything that might be fun, actually.) Multiply that by a few thousand people and it doesn't matter that you have even multiple backbone connections to the net on-site. We can't even watch news videos as they just won't load. So I'm guessing that's what I'm up against here. They've finally found a way to block an embedded video. I can't see ANY of them in any post anymore. Even the ones that used to be there!

Well then, there's two British guys. One's a reporter with this orange, shape-shifting goo, kind of like flubber from the "Absent-Minded Professor" and they line the other guys winter hat with this stuff and the reporter cranks him on the front of the head with a shovel. Then they take to the patellas. Man number 2 offers the reporter his knees to kiss the shovel's flat face. Very nice!

I enjoy skinny skiing, heckling figure skaters, flamenco guitar, the blue stuff you put your combs in, good drummers, focaccia bread and coffee out of a french press
