Video Kid Struggles w/ Basic Shooting Principles
We all have our jobs to do around the Perplexing Times offices, and we all do them, time permitting, to the best of our ability. Well, maybe not the best of our abilities, but certainly to the best of our interest in doing so. This staff Videographer we hired, however, is really mooking up the works with his inattention to detail. The most basic principles, technically, include holding the camcorder in your hand, pressing the "record" button and pointing it in the right direction.

Roadside Zoo Boasts Wide Assortment of... Wait, Roadside?
As you drive the Puerto Rican countryside, it's not uncommon to see a truck parked off the highway with a huge "Exotic Birds" sign, but the offering is almost zoo-like in variety. They boast chickens, ducks, rabbits, kittens, puppies, pigeons, ponies, land crabs of assorted colors, and even the big draw, exotic birds, but it's on the side of the road, so um, what gives? I know I'm new here, but this is a little weird.

Wussell Bland and Jonathan Woss are both former rejects from the BBC’s slapstick ‘Tosspots Show’ and later ITV’s catastrophic ‘Dog Wankers’ series, in which Bland played the critically-condemned part of a toilet...

Theme Restaurant Boasts Chicken, Fries, Playground, Pony Rides
Just off Highway-2 in the south of Puerto Rico (about twenty minutes west of Ponce) is the sort of restaurant you read about. I know I read about it on roadside signs in a good 30-mile radius, so when I had the chance to dine at Gaby's World, I jumped all over it and was rewarded in ways no restaurant has ever even tried. First thing was the restaurant, which is so good I've asked for it by name, and we go out there maybe once a week.
