 Renova is releasing an all black toilet paper. I have pretty much spent the entire day pondering this concept, dreaming and wondering what kind of advantage using black would have on me and my posterior end. Well after finally reading the Renova press release I have unfortunately come to find out that this toilet paper doesn’t have a point.
Hey Renova, when I want to be chic and elegant while in the loo, I will probably wear a dress, not use black TP. Source: Gizmodo.com |
 It has all happen to us, sometimes in the early years of our life and sometimes in the middle or the end. Forgetting how to actually tie that nice tie! Some people just do the simple small and sqew Shelby, but myself I believe that a knot should be symmetrical and of a good size where it shows so to speak. I’m using (when I wear a suit that is (which isn’t that often by the way)) the Windsor knot and sometimes the half Windsor knot, but that’s beside the point. Imagine – you’re late for the wedding/funeral/board meeting, and you just can’t get it right. What do you do? Well you dig out this page that you ofcourse should bookmark.

 Who? What? The Japanese!
You can buy almost anything from a vending machine in Japan. So it’s no surprise to find a machine fashioned after the old UFO catcher crane-and-claw-based arcade games vending live lobsters in Sapparo. 100 yen (less than a buck) is a bargain price for a potentially tasty dinner — not to mention the hearty guffaws to be had watching children (and Alec Baldwin) scream in horror.

 Elsie, a Saint Bernard puppy, swallowed a 13-inch serrated knife and survived. From the Associated Press: “I was just flabbergasted,” the vet, Jon-Paul Carew of Imperial Point Animal Hospital in Fort Lauderdale, told the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. Elsie, a Saint Bernard puppy, apparently had the blade between her esophagus and stomach for about four days before it was removed earlier this week in a 2-hour operation.

 So you’re sitting in a hotel room, bored, and the few channels that they give you have nothing good on – Gilligans Island re-runs, Golden Girls, and maybe a Pirates game. Nothing good, so you want to watch pay per view – a good movie or a “good” movie – but you don’t want to put up the 10 bucks to get it. Well, here’s how you can still watch it in most hotel rooms: Step 1: Get a Universal Remote. These are everywhere, so this shouldn’t be a problem. Buy one for 10 bucks if you have to. In addition to getting free pay per view, you can do a lot of things with this “hack.” For example, changing the name of the channels is possible. Instead of “FOX News” it could be “Breast Milk BreakDance.” That would be good. Source: theDamnblog.com |
 The narrow view experienced by snorkellers and divers alike can be rather claustrophobic – which is why Jon Kranhouse began a mission over a decade ago to create Hydrooptix’ first underwater mask that allows you to have a distortion free view that’s almost 5 times wider than conventional flat masks! The Hydrooptix’ lenses restore natural panoramic vision to the user underwater. With the mask’s overwhelming success propped by rave reviews all over, the company has 2 new designs planned for release before the year is over.
