::: EXPENSIVE POO :::
We all do poos we're proud of occasionally. One particularly honoured chap has managed to flog his to the Tate gallery in London for £22,000.
The careful 'artist' has even tinned and labelled it. Dead Italian, Manzoni produced a 'limited edition' of 90 cans in 1961. Half of them have exploded since then, but the stench is still highly sought after.

Photoshoppers favourite site B3ta has ripped off our dotclock idea in
their new shop. You know who you are - so we won't provide a link. Meow.

::: THINGY OF THE DAY SPECIAL! :::
Never be bored again with our all new 'thingy of the day'. Each day brings a new website, image - whatever... and all with a handy archive. It's more fun than a bag of lo-calorie sweets! Here's just a taster of the best byte sized snacks we've found on the web over the past two weeks. Find them all on the spacerUK homepage each and every day of the week!

The Queen will be opening the premier of Bond's new film, 'Die Another
Day' at the Royal Albert Hall on 18 November. The film's proud producers
remarked "James Bond is the epitome of all things British".

::: MAX'S MOVIE NEWS :::
This is the link to the trailer for the new Star Trek film, Nemesis. Watch it!
// http://www.apple.com/trailers/paramount/star_trek_nemesis/
And this is a link to the teaser trailer for the new 'Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers'. Someone has used a video camera to get this, but the quality is not too awful. Film looks fantastic and very dark (or that could have just been the quality of the video camera!). Great battle scenes and a glimse of Smeagol Gollum, Legolas riding on horseback into battle swinging about two bloody great swords and Gandalf is back with very strange eyebrows. Here it is, enjoy.

::: FAKE CHINESE HARRY POTTER :::
An author in China has written their very own fifth book called 'Harry Potter And Leopard Walk Up To Dragon' (snappy title). The first line of the fake 'one pound' novel begins "Harry doesn't know how long it will take to wash the sticky cream cake off his face"
It even features JK Rowlings photo and names of its translators and editors. Let's face it, the anonymous author will probably get his arse kicked big time by the authentic publishers...
