Peter De Vries quotes
Not sure who this guy is but I quite like these few quotes by Peter De Vries:
"We are not primarily put on this earth to see through one another,
but to see one another through."
"Gluttony is an emotional escape, a sign something is eating us."
"The murals in restaurants are on a par with the food in museums."
Knowledge is power, France is Bacon
I am sure there are heaps of these, things that people misunderstand as a child, but this one in particular is very funny.

Glass pane falls from Sydney skyscraper
Just saw this on the Sydney Morning Herald website: "Glass pane falls from Sydney skyscraper"
Superintendent Ian Krimmer stated "We’ve got no idea how it happened". Well I think I know - it was probably that guy mucking around on the ledge.
Snoopy and the Beatles


Apparently this is found at Universal Studios Japan: Marcie, Lucy, Charlie, Snoopy and Woodstock cross the street just like George, Paul, Ringo and John. Done for the opening of the new "Flying Snoopy" ride, during the park's 10th anniversary this March.
Dear faithful readers
As many visitors to this blog would have noticed, Daily Vowel Movements has undergone a lot of tinkering over the past few weeks. Perhaps you didn’t notice, perhaps you did. But one we were particularly excited about was updating to a dot com site, which cost us the princely sum of ten US dollars a year – what a bargain.
Anyway, it has not yet been determined whether anything has been lost in the move but from our own meanderings on the blog, it doesn’t appear so. However we are putting the call out there for any of you long term readers first time callers (oops, sorry wrong cliché) for any of you regular subsribers to keep a look out. Please, please, please let us know if you notice any links broken, random pages messing up, or posts or comments wanting you to gamble,
buy pharmaceuticals or enlarge various parts of your anatomy (that may or may not be us).
Also not sure if you have notice but we you can now Submit a link by clicking on this very cool picture or by keeping a lookout for it down on the side bar (if you don’t get it ask a Zelda fan).
Basically out of the 43 kajillion websites out there, if you find one that you think is cool, fill out the form and we will try and link to it (there is no shame in putting forward your own website, hey politicians vote for themselves, and even if it is not so cool we will still check it out).
To tempt you even further, the Daily Vowel Movements Science and technology branch has just completed some research to show that people who fill out the Submit a link form are three times better looking and are four times more intelligent than those who don’t fill out the Submit a link form (unfortunately the research was inconclusive regarding anatomy size).
Yours faithfully
The Daily Vowel Movements Team
Australian open ball boy the real star
After all the talk about how great the Australian open final was, I wonder how many saw this catch by the ball boy in the Nadal-Federer semi final.
