A briliant display from the mascot of the Toronto Raptors:



So many crass comments and innuendos but so little time!

Jesus was Way Cool

Apparently this is no joke (but who could know for sure) but a publisher of school books in India has accidently included a photo of Jesus with a cigarette in one hand and a beer can in the other in a handwriting book.

There has been the usual up-roar from the relevant religious spokes-people and a good deal of apologizing by the publishers.

Personally I think you have to forgive the poor guys. After all, if they are not Christians, you can hardly expect them to know a religious picture of Christ vs a satirical one. Would you know what the little mouse in the picture often drawn of Ganesh means?

Maybe just as interesting is that the picture is used to illustrate "idol"!

Getting Married When Older

Jacob (age 92) and Rebecca (age 89) are all excited about their decision to get married.

They go for a stroll to discuss the wedding, and on the way they pass the local chemist's shop.

Jacob suggests they go in.

Jacob addresses the man behind the counter: "Are you the owner?"

The pharmacist answers "Yes Sir."

Jacob: "We're about to get married. Do you sell heart medication?"

Pharmacist: "Of course we do."

Jacob: "How about medicine for circulation?"

Pharmacist: "All kinds "

Jacob: "Medicine for rheumatism?"

Pharmacist: "Definitely."

Jacob: "How about suppositories?"

Pharmacist: "Not much demand for them, but we stock them!"

Jacob: "Medicine for memory problems, arthritis, and Alzheimer's?"

Pharmacist: "Yes, a large variety. The works."

Jacob: "What about vitamins, sleeping pills, Geritol, antidotes for

Parkinson's disease?"

Pharmacist: "Absolutely....."

Jacob: "Everything for heartburn and indigestion?"

Pharmacist: "Certainly Sir."

Jacob: "You sell wheelchairs and walkers and canes?"

Pharmacist: "All speeds and sizes."

Jacob: "How about adult incontinence pants?"

Pharmacist: "One of our best selling lines."

Jacob: "Then we'd like to use this store for our wedding gifts register......."

Best of Friends

Kinda makes you want to sing one of those "why cant we all live together" songs, don't it?


Dogs in the Northern Territory

Dog Pack Attacks Croc In Northern Territory


At times nature can be cruel, but there is also a raw beauty, and even a certain justice manifested within that cruelty.

The crocodile, one of the oldest and ultimate predators, normally considered the 'apex predator', can still fall victim to implemented 'team work' strategy, made possible due to the tight knit social structure and 'survival of the pack mentality' bred into the canines.

See the remarkable photograph below courtesy of Nature Magazine. Note that the Alpha dog has a muzzle hold on the croc preventing it from breathing, while another dog has a hold on the tail to keep it from thrashing. The third dog attacks the soft underbelly of the croc.





Not for the squeamish...

Don't eat the brown mushrooms when.....

Ok, I am a HUGE fan of "Sex Sells" but this photo shoot clearly shows why photographers shouldn't eat the brown mushrooms before a photo shoot (and what exactly is she selling?)

Strange bed fellows

You know how in every couple, there is one that is always to hot and one that is always too cold?

And this is science?

Looks like some geeks have worked out a way to combine "research" with "getting chicks".  Who can fault any research which involves cute puppies and how well it can help you pick up girls?


I hope these guys from Puppy Pulling Power are getting a bucketful of government funding.

If you are interested in finding out the winning breed of dog for picking up girls, take a look at this video:




I just love the discussion on "quality vs quantity" at the end. I think they loose their scientific rigour!

Gasthof zum Lowen

A group of 40 year old mates meet and discuss where they should meet for dinner.

Finally it is agreed that they should meet at the Gasthof zum Lowen
restaurant because the waitress's there have low cut blouses and nice frontage views.

10 years later, at 50 years of age, the group meets again and they discuss and discuss where they should meet. Finally it is agreed upon that they should meet at the Gasthof zum Lowen because the food there is very good and the wine selection is good also.

10 years later at 60 years of age, the group meets again and once again they discuss and discuss where they should meet. Finally it is agreed upon that they should meet at the Gasthof zum Lowen because they can eat there in peace and quiet and the restaurant is smoke free.

10 years later, at 70 years of age, the group meets again and once again they discuss and discuss where they should meet. Finally it is agreed upon that they should meet at the Gasthof zum Lowen because the restaurant is wheel chair accessible and they even have an elevator.

10 years later, at 80 years of age, the group meets again and once again they discuss and discuss where they should meet. Finally it is agreed upon that they should meet at the Gasthof zum Lowen because that would be a great idea because they have never been there before.

Macquarie Bank Employee Gets Caught Out

How embarrassed would you be if this happened to you? Look closely at the computer monitor in the background. (3 rows back - being watched by the employee with his back to the Camera) at about the 1 min mark.

You can run....

Yep, you can run, maybe you can even hide, but you can't climb!
