Dealing with the recession
June 2, 2009
Recession was a hard hit for many of us. It has hit poorer contries the most to such a degree that kids are now working too. It’s not probably a new thing in certain Asian countries, but the following photos are certainly heartwarming.

There are a few people out there whose work really makes you laugh. Court Jones, the actor that created these beauties is one of them.

A Special Cake for Your Birthday
February 20, 2009
Aren’t you sick of those usual round, tedious cakes everyone has for their birthday? Some pastry chefs thought of this and made some special cakes every geek would want. Some even cater to non-geeks and all will make a kick-ass birthday party. So here are 45 of the weirdest, funniest and wackiest cake designs.
Wrong giraffe
November 13, 2008
Gemina was born in 1986, in San Diego. There no sign of deformities so Gemina was taken to a zoo Santa Barbara, when she was about one year. The giraffe continued to act and look normally for three years, but soon, her spine started to brake little by little in the neck area. The spine deformity became so obvious that it was hard to overlook. A similar case was registered in the early 1900s. The scientists, zoologists and veterinarians have been unable to find the explanation for this.
Modern-Day Atlantis
October 31, 2008
As if Dubai’s 7-stars Burj al Arab Hotel wasn’t wonderful enough, the wealthy Arab sheics have created an even greater architectural wonder, the Atlantis. It cost over 1,5 billion dollars to build, but the investors are confident that they will recover their investment in just a few years, and at a minimum of $1,000 per room/night, they just might. The theme rooms, like Poseidon and Neptune go up to $8,000-$10,000 a night.
Built on the artificial island known as The Palm, Atlantis has 1373 room, 166 apartments, a giant fish-tank with 65,000 fish, a 170,000 square meters aqua park, artificial beaches, a lagoon and even an artificial river. Plenty of reasons to visit…if you can afford it.
Meet Samson
October 31, 2008
At 6 feet and 5 inches, Samson is by far the largest dog in the United Kingdom. Don’t worry though, this “puppy’s” bark is a lot worse than his bite, he’s what you’d call a harmless giant that loves to be petted even by strangers. A cross between a Great Dane and a Newfoundland, Samson is about the size of a small horse and even wears a raincoat meant for one, because, like his owners say “Such a large dog getting soaking wet wouldn’t smell very nice.”
Samson is only three years old and will continue to grow even more and the owners fear that soon they’ll be forced to get a bigger house. the current one is already pretty shaken up from the dog’s loud snoring.
Tunnel Vision - I haz it!
October 13, 2008
Even though it’s not that funny, I always laugh when I come across animals stuck one way or another. Take this cow, for example or this curious hedgehog that really wanted to see how tunnel vision feels like.
