All the furor created by environmental groups over the last couple of years has resulted in the launch of a new and greener airplane. The passenger jet which will soon be coming into service all over the world is electric!
Designed to work like a tram, these electric planes will cut down on pollution and CO2 emissions but the sky isn't going to look so pretty anymore....

Apparently, they often can be.
For example, how about using them to hold that shot glass as you use your hands to gesticulate during a conversation down the pub?

But, perhaps they are a bit of a flop when it comes to trying to hold four glasses or beer there no matter how hard you try....

And trying to lift that photocopier with your breasts is simply a non starter....

Sex sells. We all know that. But I was simply amazed this morning to find a story at the ABC website on American Christian evangelists and how they have discovered that sex helps them build bigger communities (and undoubtedly - larger incomes!. The article highlights how many evangelical preachers are now preaching that sex is fun and should be fun and not something performed at 8pm monthly on a Wednesday evening in the missionary position.

Well, this isn't it but something like this might come in handy for those unwanted visitors....

Guys - Ever wanted to me more successful picking up women? Well here is the book that tells all the secrets... and it is written by a woman...
Sometimes you have to wonder how folks in the US actually think compared to us more liberal Europeans. I run a few ads on this site. They don't pay very much but it all helps you know. I mean, I wish they would pay out more but the site doesn't get enough traffic to generate a lot of cash from a few ads. But I digress......
Yesterday I set up a new ad zone using Adbrite - you can see their ads around the site if you look. This morning I find an email in in my inbox stating that they had reviewed my site and considered it an ADULT site and would therefore be running ADULT ads on the site!! What the hell?
The recent story that Big Foot had been found in the USA prompted me to keep an eye out for this creature. And I was right to because just yesterday I managed to photograph Big Foot trying to steal my bike! I mean, one day Big Foot is just a rumor and the next he's a bloody bike thief! Typical...

Imagine you have a few beers and inadvisedly drive home somewhat drunk. You congratulate yourself getting into bed that you managed to avoid issues an the police and then fall asleep....
After a leisurely breakfast you leave to jump in your car to go to the office....
Oooooops!

A few months ago I discovered TXN. I was looking for ways to promote my site and stumbled on this in google. It has turned out to be really something.
Not only can I promote my site for a very low cost but I also increased my Google Page Rank on several pages simply because of TXN. But... it gets better. I actually signed up my blogs to carry their ads too and am making money hand over fist doing so.
How does it work?
Well, you sign up your site, add a small snippet of code and wait 2-3 days for approval. Then, links are sold to EACH and EVERY page of your site. You get points for carrying those ads. The higher the Page Rank or the page, the more points you get. Those points can then be used to buy ads for your sites or .... yes ... you can cash them out and get paid via paypal.
Some folks find a way to ensure everyone knows their likes and dislikes even after death. I mean why just disappear from the world without leaving your mark?
This guy had an opinion and he enforced it.....

Wouldn't it be fun if soccer were played in a kit like this.... especially if it rained?

The Ting Tings... what a stupid name for a group or duo. I'd never heard of them until yesterday when my partner introduced them to me singing the inanely ridiculous but admittedly catchy 'That's not my Name'. But what I want to know is how did such drivel become popular seemingly overnight? They are everywhere with that stupid song... even here in the Czech Republic that song already features in radio and TV commercials....
Maybe I am getting old and out of touch with modern music but come on this song is pure tripe. I will admit it is well produced but so far as I can tell it has two chords and one line in the lyrics which are nonsense... I'm sure their wallets are getting fatter by the minute.
Led Zeppelin - Where are you?
I will be gone next week getting some well earned rest and recreation but don't let that stop you from exploring this site.... lots of fun articles, photos and videos to look at...
Back Soon.
Just back from a trip to Italy.... I had always believed Italians to be suave, fashionable and sophisticated.... that perception has been well and truly busted. Many Italians, even young kids, are grossly overweight, they are noisy and often downright rude and scruffy. In fact, one observation about Naples is that it has to be the scruffiest place I have ever been. Driving there is an experience. It seems that Italian drivers ignore every sign and drive as if no one else is on the road. And those scooters... wow. I wonder how many accidents there are a day involving scooters?
Had a nice time but it truly shattered my ideas about Italy and Italians.

Getting back from a week's vacation I find I have over 5000 emails in my Inbox. It took me just about 5 hours to go through them deleting spam after spam to leave just the 50+ or so real emails. Tedious to say the least. Probably more than 1000 emails deleted during that process were promising to make me ... well... better in bed. They come with subject titles like "Size does matter to the Ladies" and "Make your Girlfriend Happier" and so on.. but I guess you get them too.
McCain and Obama in a dead heat and Obama seems to have lost his tongue or maybe the DNC have decided it's their way or the highway. To me, it looks like politics as usual from both parties throwing insults and accusations at each other - what happened to Obama's freshness and do 'it doesn't have to be like this' attitude?
I can't believe that the US will elect McCain and Co. I mean he is older than God and has a far worse memory. But he represents the status quo, the reason why the US is deep in doo doo right now and all you can surely expect is more of the same?
Imagine....
You are at the airport and inadvertently leave your bag behind as you rush to get home.... a few minutes or so later you realize that you left your bag and return to find the airport being evacuated on a security alert.... oops - yes, it is your bag that caused the alert. Embarrassing for sure. But then you are asked to identify your bag and the vibrating content that triggered the alert. Red-faced you extract your sex toy vibrator to show to the security guards and police..... worse still, you are male!
LOL! No way you say? Actually, this happened at a Queensland airport in Australia in 2004. See the story here
Feminism hasn't reached all parts of our globe. Apparently, in some parts of the world, male chauvinism is alive and well as these photos demonstrate.....

What is the world coming to?
First I read that a minister in the Nigerian government wants to ban miniskirts claiming that they distract drivers and cause accidents and, wearing one is tantamount to being naked! Is this guy serious??? See the story here.
as I am reading that I see another story in which a US judge has thrown out a rule that bans baggy trousers that allow the underwear to be seen. A 17-year old had been arrested for showing had bee held in jail on arrest overnight for showing 4 inches of...... his underwear due to his baggy trousers. The judge held the law as unconstitutional... see the story here
oh how I miss the sun, warm air, bathing in the Med, drinking beer and eating good food not giving a toss about anything. That view of Capri from the hotel window, Italian traffic and scooters. It wasn't long enough... needed two weeks not one to really unwind. My tan is fading along with the memory......
Here in the Czech Republic its cold, rainy and horrible weather. Aghhhhh........
I was in Paris on Monday. Nice city but impossible to find a Taxi there.
I arrived at Orly airport Sunday evening and wanting to save a little money thought I would take the train into Paris. My first problem was finding a cash machine. Arriving in Paris, I walked for 20 minutes in ever widening circles trying every cash machine I found. Many would not take my card and the rest were out of cash! Bit of a problem really since I had no Euro's on me.
Eventually I did get cash but then turned my attention to getting a cab for the remainder of the journey to my hotel. Plenty of cabs but not one free. I stood at a Taxi site - nothing... not a single cab showed there in 40 minutes. I gave up and decided to walk....
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad again showed just how out of touch he is with the world while speaking at the UN. Amongst his usual racist, anti-semitic, denial of historical facts and image-laced speech was the concept that the American Empire was about to end. Oh really? Someone ought to remind him that the Persian empire ended several thousand years ago.
I mean its not that I totally disagree with what he is trying to say it is simply the ridiculous way in which he says it.

A Syrian-born airline pilot allegedly tricked a schoolteacher from Haverfordwest into having sex with him by pretending he had to administer ointment on the end of his penis, a jury heard yesterday (Tuesday).
Fadi Sbano, 38, even pretended to know a gynaecologist who advised him on how often to have intercourse with her and whether to thrust "slowly or quickly". And, on the "doctor's advice", he kept a clock on the bedside table to time the sessions.
The teacher put up with the treatment for nine months before telling her doctor.

Here is a story that appeared in the Czech Republic but doesn't seem to have had much airplay in the US. It is yet another example of how our privacy is continually under assault with the 'terrorism threat' being used to to have us accept it. NASA is developing a brain wave monitoring system for use in airports to detect passengers who might potentially pose a threat.
[excerpted from Net newsgroup post 2/96 and other sources - Note: The accuracy of these purported laws is questionable.
-- In Bakersfield, California, anyone having intercourse with Satan must use a condom.
-- In Oblong, Illinois, it's punishable by law to make love while
hunting or fishing on your wedding day.
-- In Minnesota, it is illegal for any man to have sexual intercourse with a live fish. (Apparently it's OK for woman.)
-- No man is allowed to make love to his wife with the smell of garlic, onions, or sardines on his breath in Alexandria, Minnesota. If his wife so requests, law mandates that he must brush his teeth.
-- Warn your hubby that after lovemaking in Ames, Iowa, he isn't
Investment analyst and entrepreneur Dr. Marc Faber concluded his monthly bulletin (June 2008) with the Following:
"The federal government is sending each of us a $600 rebate. If we spend that money at Wal-Mart, the money goes to China. If we spend it on gasoline it goes to the Arabs. If we buy a computer it will go to India. If we purchase fruit and vegetables it will go to Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala. If we purchase a good car it will go to Germany. If we purchase useless crap it will go to Taiwan and none of it will help the American economy. The only way to keep that money here at home is to spend it on prostitutes and beer, since these are the only products still produced in US. I've been doing my part."
Are you????
Regular visitors will know that I am a Hull City (The Tigers) fan and have been all of my life. Last season, Hull gained promotion to the EPL for the first time in their 104 year history and so all of us Hullonians were to say the least excited. Funnily enough, no one else was.
In pre-season - no - as soon as our promotion was secured, out came all the experts and pundits to declare that Hull City would be immediately relegated and would do a 'Derby' - a reference to last seasons disasterous EPL campaign by Derby County. Hull's pre-season schedule results only seemed to confirm to everyone that this was a self fulfilling prophecy.
Funny.... people like me were quietly confident that they would all EAT their words. I didn't expect that to happen quite so soon however.....
The world is coming apart at the seams as banks fail or nearly fail and the ripple has yet to finish moving. All we can be sure of when all is done and dusted the rich will be even richer and the rest of us will be deep in doodoo......
