Weird Al does it again.




Weird Al is at it again. He made a new CD filled with satirical songs, called 'Straight outta Lynwood' in a nod to 'Straight outta Compton'. He even made the first song on the CD free for download. It's called 'Don't download this song'.
Have a hear. It's hilarious with lines like:

"Don't take away money from artists just like me
How else can I afford another solid gold Humvee?
And diamond-studded swimming pools, these things don't grow on trees" :D

Here it is: Don't click this link ;)

North Korea trip



These are interesting travel reports from two guys who went to North Korea. Since the country is pretty much blocked off from the rest of the world, getting into it isn't that easy unless you go with a guided tourist group. And even then they won't let you out of their sight and make sure you only see what they want you to see. Still two interesting reports from a country of which little is known to most people. Let me know what you think of them.

North Korea Story 1

I noticed the second one took lots more 'forbidden' pictures, that he snapped while the guides weren't looking.

The importance of emphasis in a spoken sentence


"I didn't say you stole the money."

Depending on the word you put emphasis on, one sentence can have 7 different meanings with no actual changes in the written words.

"*I* didn't say you stole the money." - he said it
"I *didn't* say you stole the money." - rejects the accusation
"I didn't *say* you stole the money." - I implied it
"I didn't say *you* stole the money." - mistaken identity
"I didn't say you *stole* the money." - it may have been misplaced
"I didn't say you stole *the* money." - just money in general
"I didn't say you stole the *money*." - just everything else


I never thought about how important the right emphasis can be. :)

Simple home remedies



Some funny stuff landed in my inbox today :)
Have a look.

1. If you are choking on an ice cube, don't panic. Simply pour a cup of boiling water down your throat and presto! The blockage will be almost instantly removed.

2. Clumsy? Avoid cutting yourself while slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while you chop away.

3. Avoid arguments with the Mrs. about lifting the toilet seat by simply using the sink.

4. For high blood pressure sufferers: simply cut yourself and bleed for a few minutes, thus reducing the pressure in your veins. Remember to use a timer.

5. A set mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.

6. If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of laxatives, then you will be afraid to cough.

7. Have a bad toothache? Smash your thumb with a hammer and you will forget about the toothache.

Sometimes, we just need to remember what the rules of life really are:

* You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape.
* If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
* If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

Remember: Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.

Never pass up an opportunity to go to the bathroom.

And finally, be really nice to your family and friends; you never know when you might need them to empty your bedpan.

Some people are like Slinkies... Not really good for anything, but still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

How to clean your toilet using your cat



Got this in my email inbox, very funny :)


1) Put both lids of the toilet up and add 1/8 cup of pet shampoo to the water in the bowl.
2) Pick up the cat and soothe him while you carry him towards the bathroom.
3) In one smooth movement, put the cat in the toilet and close both lids. You may need to stand on the lid.
4)The cat will self-agitate and make ample suds. Never mind the noises that come from the toilet, the cat is actually enjoying this.





5)Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a "power-wash" and rinse".
6)Have someone open the front door of your home. Be sure that there are no people between the bathroom and the front door.
7)Stand behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift both lids.
8)The cat will rocket out of the toilet, streak through the bathroom, and run outside where he will dry himself off.
9)Both the commode and the cat will be sparkling clean.


Sincerely,
The Dog
