I love the expression on the Waxham Whale.

"She is now 320 metres long and is hungry for three low-flying fighter jets."

Hee!

that magic roundabout reminds me of a passage from "good omens, where the influence of demons on the construction of the m25 orbital is explained:

in fact, very few people on the face of the planet know that the very shape of the m25 forms the signal 'odegra' in the language of the black priesthood of ancient mu, and means "hail the great beast, devourer of worlds".

I love this. Just yesterday I was looking at getting a new GPS Watch that can export the route as XML. I guess my running routes will have to become more creative.

Also note the conceptual similarity to Lucas Helder, the smiley face pipe bomber (discussed several times on MeFi). But with much less risk to life and limb.
