Oops



Wonderful educational TV in Germany...

----------


BERLIN (Reuters) - German viewers of a TV documentary on the human body got more detail than they bargained for when the program was interrupted by scenes of hardcore sex, a cable channel said on Thursday.
Scores of outraged science fans called XXP TV to complain after an episode from the BBC's "Superhuman" series examining respiratory disorders was replaced by images of group sex from the Spice Platinum channel involving one man and several women.

Monika Weitkamp of the Berlin-based documentary channel said the cable carriers had mixed up the feeds. The voiceover for the documentary, dubbed into German, continued during the pornographic interlude.

"A lot of people watching it with their kids called up in a rage to complain. They'd probably never seen anything like it in their lives," she said.

Ah well, tomorrow is Friday. That is always good. After a frustrating night last night trying to get my upgraded firewall to work, everything is in working order tonight. I eventually learned that I would have to delete my internet logs and sure enough, that worked. Somethine about True Vector Internet Monitor not working correctly.

Bush is rattling his sabre once again and this time it is Iran. He says the world (his) cannot tolerate them having nuclear weapons. Well, George, get over it and live with it. We live with others who have them and unless you do something overt to offend them, you have little to fear.

I wonder how Tony Blair is doing these days?
