God save the Piz'

Apparently Pizza Express share its birthday with the Queen. And apparently this year it's the chain's 40th Birthday. Both seem a little unlikely to me but anyway...

To commemorate these facts, they have commissioned a series of pizza portraits.

Good to see Camilla getting in on the act too.

Hillbilly Greeking

You've all seen 'Greeking', it's the place-holder text that gets used by designers when they don't have real copy to work with. You know, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit...."

GreekMachine have introduced a greeking generator that creates, amongst other things, Hillbilly greeking:

"Hairy buckshot, pasture no fence buy round-up city-slickers quarrel had. Darn askin' y'all sheep lordy, yonder spell. Liniment yippie it crazy broke fat tractor thar. That broke fussin' cabin dirt how out sittin', fried, heapin' barn chitlins nothin', jezebel. Farm reckon, confounded fuss polecat barrel.

Whomp shootin', fussin' jiggly truck wild afford, liar everlastin' skedaddled jehosephat.

Hee-haw nothin' caught simple feathered hootch hoosegow skinned fetched trailer buy her fit. Caught ails pick-up tar, no fire, polecat moonshine shed, farm guzzled ever road jest damn. Highway pot wild tax-collectors hoosegow simple tin huntin' squalor greasy fer woman skinned."

Why would anybody use anything else?
