Kitten eat Watermelon

September 12, 2007 · Filed Under Humour and Weird · 1 Comment 

oh my, oh my, this is so cute. No idea why, but could it be that the owner might have somehow dip it in some cat food or the kitten is really really hungry and thirsty. It is definitely tasteless to cats because they can’t taste sweet stuff, their tongue are just not made to taste it.

YES, they live in you. These eight stumpy legs mites is basically all over you. Next time when you kiss a girl, do not think of these mites…

Varying in size from .1mm to .4 mm long, it lives in your pores and hair follicles, typically on your scalp, cheeks, nose, eyebrows and often in the roots of your eyelashes. Demodicids have worm-like attributes, with tiny claws, and scales over the whole of its body so that it may better anchor itself in the hair follicle. An individual female may lay up to 25 eggs in a single follicle, and as the mites grow, they become tightly packed. When mature, the mites leave the follicle, mate, and lays more eggs.

During the day, Demodex mites remain feeding within the follicle. At night, they emerge onto the surface to mate, and eggs are laid into follicles so that the newly hatched larvae may feed on sebaceous oils. - Wikipedia

Bolivia Trunk Road

Bolivia Trunk Road

Bolivia Trunk Road

Bolivia Trunk Road

The world’s most dangerous road - According to Wikipedia - One estimate is that 200-300 travellers were killed yearly along the road[1]. The road includes christian crosses marking many of the spots where such vehicles have fallen.

Upon leaving La Paz, the road first ascends up to around 5 km, before descending to 330 m (1079 ft), transitioning quickly from cool altiplano terrain to rain forest as it winds through very steep hillsides and atop cliffs.

The funny thing is, Yungas Road is a must visit tourist spot for all foreigners.

Oscar Pistorius the Blade Runner

August 30, 2007 · Filed Under Humour and Weird · Comment 

Known as the Blade Runner, Oscar Pistorius is a South African Paralympic runner, without his lower legs, he is able to compete and out run most of the able body athletics and was recently given the green light to compete with regular athletes, and hopefully the next Beijing Olympics.

However, the International Association of Athletics Federation (IAAF) has serious concerns that his artificial legs might actually give him an unfair advantage. Unfair advantage? What unfair advantage? If I were to run with or without my legs, he would virtually beat me at every race. I believe it is a person’s mental will that matters and not the artificial legs.

World’s Richest Dog

World’s Richest Dog

Gothamist has an interesting article on the world’s richest dog, it appears that the dog owner pass down a portion of her fortune to her beloved dog. In addition to the $12 million trust, when Trouble dies, she’ll be buried next to her former owner in the family mausoleum.

Some of the other recipients of monies from the estate include: $10 million for her brother Alvin Rosenthal (who is also caring for the dog); $100,000 for her chauffeur; $5 million for two of her grandchildren; $0 for her other two grandchildren.

Can you imagine the amount of money the dog has? The dog is richer than me and I doubt I’ll ever make that much in my entire life time.

Couple Tried to Name Baby “@”

Word has it that a couple in China tried to name their newborn baby ‘@’

Well, this may sound weird and funny but have the parents actually think about the embarrassment the child has to go through all his life is the authorities actually approve the name. He or she could literally be the joke of the entire class.

I remember I read about an article once where the father name his son Hitler, hoping that his son could be a a strong leader, and there is another case where the parents name their child ‘Google’, for goodness sake, it is your child, not some toy or pet.

Nose Jobs Change Female Mice to Male

Why do people turn gay? Why are there gays? Lesbians? Researcher might have the answer in a few years time, according to telegraph UK:

The new work of the Harvard University and Howard Hughes Medical Institute team, published in the journal Nature, indicates that defects in this organ, known as the vomeronasal organ, lead female mice to act like males, solicting them, mounting them and thrusting them while abandoning nesting and nursing.


So, does it really apply to us human beings as well? Not quite, according to Prof Dulac, human depends on visual rather than on pheromones and its sense of smell.
