The adventures of Almigo

And here I was thinking that I'd done the world a massive favour by revealing what Flo Rida's song Whistle was really about (hint, if you don't know, it's all explained on this very site right here ). But it seems I celebrated my helpful ways a little too early as a quick check on Google reveals that I really do have my work cut out for me - there's a whole heap of songs out there that people are still confused by.  And so in the spirit of awesomeness, once again I have donned my cap of explaination to prove the answers to your crippling song meaning questions...

Amazing news for those who enjoyed rides in Datsun's as kids - Nissan is bringing back the Datsun badge! Cue the choir singers, strike up the band and hand out the Jatz crackers and cheese!

Buuuuuut (and as buts go, Sir Mix A Lot will get very excited about this level of but size) before you start reliving your heady days with rides to school in mum's burnt orange 120Y, your mates first car the 180B or in my case my Dad's fondness for his British Racing Green 260Z, there are a few things you have to prepare for when Datsun finally makes it's rearrival in 2014...

In the early days of the internet, when the humble internet cafes were king and 56K was seen as 'lightning fast', there was a company born out of a bedroom: Sausage Software.

I saw posters and billboards and plenty of ads for it. What happened? But what happened next? And why doesn't anyone remember him or the company he made?
