I just had to nick this Gym Kitty from cfsmtb. Love it! 😀

Also making me smile is this remix of U2’s “Vertigo”:

It’s missing: “he’s dancing on those pedals!” 😀

Anthony says of: www.cane-toad.com, “download the video. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll never look at Cane Toads the same.“

If you can spare 33MB of your download limit, this is a pretty funny 4 minutes of video 😀

I am in the office. The guy behind me is snoring, rather loudly, at his desk.

Even when I needed a sleep in my previous office, I’d have the forethought to hide under the desk or move to another room. I don’t remember snoring there either. The “wakers” (all two of us) are laughing at him. It really does sum up the energy in the office today. 😀

Watching a tv program on the early attempts to achieve super-sonic flight reminded me of this: Finagle’s Law, which I’d found earlier on randomconcoction.blogspot.com

He’s a single-speeder from Melbourne so he must be okay! ;-D

In the tradition of Tam’s: “Most radical… no, most ridiculous new product“, I present:

hippy’s Bullsh*t Product of the Week: Phiten.

It seems if you can’t get enough Ti on your bike, you should wrap some around your wrists to “increase sports performance and help relieve pain”.

“Phiten has created products that activate cells one-by-one. Fostering “optimal balance,” the basis of our products is “Phild Processing,” a technology that mixes collagen and a highly absorbable pineapple enzyme. This powerful and natural combination enhances cell activity and thus helping to promote a strong body.”

“”Phild Processing” is a process that has been proven to enhance kinetic ability in the body, preventing injuries and back pain. Helping to actualize one’s human potential in sports or in daily life, Phiten’s Titanium products are used worldwide by athletes and other people who have begun to recognize the high potential hidden in these products.”

Sounds like bullsh*t.

But wait! There’s more!

It seems Phiten know how to dissolve titanium in water:

“Aqua Titanium” is the name we use for titanium paricles dissolved in water. It represents Phiten’s successful effort to bond titanium molecules with water molecules, which had heretofore been considered infeasible, using a unique technology,

Phiten’s original technology causes titanium to dissolve in water (Aqua Titanium) and lets the titanium particles thus obtained permeate each fiber of the material fabric. Phiten??s apparel products, made of these specially processed fabrics, deliver the natural health-promoting properties of titanium to various parts of your body.

Click on their “How It Works” page – what do you get?

That’s right.. “404 – Page cannot be found”!!

Good to see even they know their products are bullsh*t!

Don’t forget – You can also buy this bullsh*t for your pets! Joy of joys!

Phiten – a deserving winner of hippy’s “Bullsh*t Product of the Week”.

The Year of Coffee Blog

Don’t ask me, it’s silly enough to post here, is all.

MY coffee situation: I’m cutting down the coffee I drink (none at all on Thu and Fri). The instant Nescafe tastes better than the filtered stuff at work. If I could afford it, I’d be buying from cafe’s, but I can’t so I don’t. If I was, I’d go for the “bowl-sized” cappucinos from Costa Coffee. I hate Starbucks for no reason at all. To replace the missing coffees I bought some Cadbury’s Hot Chocolate. At home I’ve been hitting up crusty old Milo, Ovomaltine (same as Australian Ovaltine I think) and Horlick’s. If only water tasted nice by itself!

(click image above for clarity)

A beautiful princess was walking along and found an ugly toad. Being a princess, she kissed it.

Kaboompfh! The ugly toad turned into a handsome prince.

The prince said ?My saviour! You have rescued me from my terrible woes. Will you Marry me??

?No? replied the princess.

The prince said ?OK?, then went out on the piss with his mates, went camping, shooting, out to strip clubs and hung out with hookers and drug dealers, never got invited to dinner by other couples and lived happily ever after.

THE END

thanks for that Anthony 😀
