Can't even trust your mom?

What a strange world we live in, the most precious thing as mom's milk to her child is now something which can ding the baby real bad.

This is happening because of flame retardants on furniture ending up in mothers milk! Good thing I was born before these came became so prevalent.

Burst blogging

Burst blogging, is when one starts churning out more than one or two blogs in a day and does not blog for a few days.

Some people like to compile their thoughts during these times, some people like me just sleep and wake up one day and finally when I do have my ritual bath, all the grime on my brain washes off and then volla, comes a volley of ideas to write about.

Well some people call it a technique, but for me, its more of a way of life. Something that I guess is natural for most casual bloggers.

So in this spirit, here comes more ...

Glogs (Global Blogging) ?!

Glogging, well I thought of it as a right name for global blogging. A very innovative idea which presents a view point of people from really "all over the globe". There is one project aptly named Global Voices Online. The articles today were a good read, got to watch if they continue to be.

But glogging also refers to a strange John-McCarthy-fanatic invention, which is a log Humanoid component, like a wearable camera, or a mic one sticks in their sunglasses, or even better a olfactory device which records smells.

Well, you would not want to remember all smells, like you getting "one" go or rotten fish lying on the beach or the smell of gas when you are stuck in a freeway jam.

But there are a lot of smells I would like to remember, like the smell of a clean baby, smell of my dog, smell of my loved one (when hot, those pheromones!!), smell of the first few drops of rain or smell of gun shots coming off your hand gun.
Well, the last one might smell like a bad one, but I did get high on it.

World is an interesting place to live ....

The (w)hole truth

Do you really belive this news article, I somehow think its fake. But mostly its not.

How the hell can you make something as invasive as peering through a girls skirt legal?
Just imagine the women would not like to be violated, they cant sue the men. This world has wierd laws!

Marraiges are made in ...

I have always heard of mail order brides and western men going to Asia and more impowerished countries to buy wives. Never the other way around, that too, totally.

This article in BBC covers a story about women in Cuba buying husbands in other countries. $5000 for a husband in Canada, US or Mexico. $800 for a buddy in Peru.

Wow, whats my markup? I would surely like to know. I could use a few extra bucks. And while you are it, why dont you throw half a dozen more of them, I am looking to buy a new car.

And this goes to some of my buddies too, who are in a similar situation like mine. All you gotto do is marry. The biggest incentive in all this "flesh" trade is that the girl might probably leave you as soon as you step inside this country. So you dont have to bear with her for the rest of your lives.

Somehow, I am not sure whats holding me back, I am contacting BBC for these agents as I finish this blog ....

Every dog has its fight!

PS: I am no kind of marketeer for this business, but I could not help but blog about it, people living in Orange County (which is where this is) for many years did not know about it. Enough of disclaimers, lets get to it.

Everytime I saw programs on WW II on the History channel about all those dogfighting stories about the Luftwaffe, the RAF fighters, adrenaline would start pumping (also because I would be watching ... on my laptop) :)

The amazing thing is, a civilian can now do it, be a part of a dogfight (and have his/her day). http://www.aircombatusa.com/ has a few Italian SF260s, which you can take for a spin, literally. If you go with a buddy, you can find out whos the better dog(bitch) :)

I would give my third arm to be in that plane, so if anyone wants my third arm or has been leaving my site because of my stupid jokes, please donate some money to me. :D
