Welcome back

This is my first blog in two years.  I went off on a tangent in my first series of blogs.  I was obvioulsy bored and had too much time on my hands.  Fast forward 2.5 years and I'm back at the blogger in a very different circumstance.  That is, very busy, no time to scratch myself, a new addition to the family (hence the time sap).
So now that this first one is out of the way...Phew. Its overwhelming starting again.  But this time my blogs will actually be informative, more specific and definately business orientated - but not all the time, I like to have a bit of fun too.

So I'll see you on the flip side whilst I collect my content and start tapping away at the keys.

The Invisible Man

Chinese artist Liu Bolin, centre, is helped by his colleagues to blend into rows of drinks in his artwork entitled "Plasticizer", to express his speechlessness at use of plasticiser in food additives, in his studio at the 798 Art District in Beijing, China.

Porcupine - 1, Pit Bull - 0

This isn't a new story, however it is new to me. Apparently it was circulating in 2005 but I think its so fascinating I want to share it.

This pit bull Inca, fought a porcupine and the porcupine won, After sedating the dog a vet removed 1,347 quills from it. The dog survived, perhaps a little worse for the wear, but perhaps a little wiser as well.

Here she is now, fully recovered.

Programmer replaces missing finger with thumb drive

Now, I'm a computer geek, but I think this is taking the geekness to super heights. A computer programmer who lost half his finger after his motorbike crashed into a deer has had the finger replaced with a USB drive. Jerry Jalava, from Finland, says the two-gigabyte prosthetic finger is not permanently attached to his hand, allowing him to leave his finger in the computer slot and "pick it up after I'm ready". Now just when you thought that was weird, I read this...

Filmmaker plans to implant 'bionic webcam' eye.
A one-eyed documentary filmmaker is preparing to work with a video camera concealed inside a prosthetic eye, hoping to secretly record people for a project commenting on the global spread of surveillance cameras.

It makes me wonder about my own 'lazy' body parts......hmmm.

Happy Birthday Adolf Hitler

While reading the paper, I came across this fantastic story of a couple who named their baby Adolf Hitler Campbell. Now that in itself is a great story of how retarded people are, but they have gone to the media after a cakestore in New Jersey refused to write "Happy Birthday Adolf Hitler" on their sons cake. But the story gets better, little Adolf has a sister named JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell. And guess what, she is not getting a cake with her name on it either. Haha. The point of the story.... F#%k knows.

Jose Mestre - Man without a face

Yes, i have been watching too much tv again. This time "My Shocking Story" delivered one of the worst episodes I've seen to date. This poor bastard in Portagul has tumors all over his "face" and because he's a Jehovah's Witness, he can't accept blood so he can't have surgey to remove them. Talk about religion gone mad.

Type in the Sky

Lisa Rienermann has created an alphabet from shapes between buildings. Hmmm... She's a smart cookie. Click on the photo to enlarge.

Pammy on BB

I don't know about you, but when I'm 41, my aim is to do the splits on national television. YOU GO GIRL!!

Super Morbidly Obese

After watching countless tv shows like Amazing Medical Stories or Half Ton Dad, I decided to give a shout out to all the morbidly obese people in the USA who don't leave there beds, live on McDonalds, have skin that would make an elephant jealous and have loving familes who not only bring them the junk food to remain fat, but bath their half ton bodies, including, well, toilet matters. Eeeewww.

Thats entertainment, in my house anyway.

When Fashion goes too far

Now I'm all about being passionate about clothing brands, I do work in the fashion industry. However, sometimes it's beyond my comprehension how much some people really LOVE their brands.

Eva Mendes in Vogue Italia
