Music of the Night

We went to see one of the most famous of all musicals this weekend. Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Phantom of the Opera. I’d seen two of the Disney musicals but this was my first “old school” musical. I thoroughly enjoyed it while Kathryn had seen it before in Bristol thought it was a lot better

Interesting Web Page Effect

Go to a web page with images on it (this one for example) and then paste this: javascript:R=0; x1=.1; y1=.05; x2=.25; y2=.24; x3=1.6; y3=.24; x4=300; y4=200; x5=300; y5=200; DI=document.getElementsByTagName(“img”); DIL=DI.length; function A(){for(i=0; i-DIL; i++){DIS=DI[ i ].style; DIS.position=’absolute’; DIS.left=(Math.sin(R*x1+i*x2+x3)*x4+x5)+”px”; DIS.top=(Math.cos(R*y1+i*y2+y3)*y4+y5)+”px”}R++}setInterval(‘A()’,5); void(0); into your address bar and press return. Weird huh?!
