The Worst Album Ever

worst album

I have hundreds of CDs, sometimes I make a mistake and buy something really crappy but I have to say the crappiest CD I ever got was James Iha’s solo album “Let it come down“. James Iha was the guitarist in Smashing Pumpkins and when he came out with his solo album I went and bought it right away, biggest mistake in history. Its crap, terrible, slow, boring, country music like, very gay and his voice just plain sucks. I have no clue how his album has a 4.5 out 5 rating on Amazon, probably all his girl fans went and rated him or something.

Man Eats Tractor

I was having a discussion with someone at work about how in India they eat light bulbs (I don’t know where I heard about that). The guy didn’t believe that was possible, so we called this Indian girl into the office and I asked her if its true there are people in India who eat light bulbs. She replied tell me there was this one guy she knew of who did eat a light bulb. She then went on to tell us the guy also ate a tractor. At first I thought we must have misunderstood but we hadn’t. Some guy in India ate a tractor! She then told us about this one poor family who didn’t have money for food and so they started eating soil. Now they only eat soil and refuse to eat food. Strange stuff… I decided to google the tractor guy cuz I figured there can’t be that many people who have eaten tractors before and I found an article about this guy in the States who also ate a tractor! Weird people.. [Link]

Greenlighters

Greenlighters are an emerging underground movement of sexually promiscuous teenagers, including bisexual, homosexual, and heterosexual members. Members of this movement wear a green polo shirt with the collar up, indicating that they are open to pretty much any sexual adventure. When someone comes up to them and puts the collar down, they are “collared” and will go with that person and do whatever sexual act they ask. Transfer of money is not usually involved. Some parent groups are starting to get involved – urging parents to go through their kids clothes and confiscate green shirts and polos. [Link]

Beckham Faces Tattoo Battle

I just read this article below and I think its ridiculous, how could David Beckham not have the rights to a tattoo located on his own body??

—————–

David Beckham is facing a legal battle over who owns the right to his tattoos, because body artist Louis Malloy fears the British soccer star is making money from his designs.

Malloy designed and inked nine of Beckham’s tattoos, including the famous guardian angel on his upper back, and is determined to sue should the Real Madrid ace use the images in an advertising campaign.

The 42-year-old claims Beckham, who is married to ex-Spice Girl Victoria Beckham, tried to force him to sign a confidentiality agreement, but he refused.

Malloy says, “I was contacted recently and told they wanted to use some of them in a campaign. I said we’d have to draw up a license agreement but then it got too complicated. So I said, ‘I own the copyright, they are my intellectual property, I drew them, I didn’t copy them from other sources.’

“They still think they’re the owners of the images but if they use them without my permission I’d sue. There’s no doubt about it.” [Source]

Minor Design Update

I just changed the website’s theme awhile ago. It’s similar to the old one and derived from the Miskan one. I find this new one tidier and visually more attractive. I will work on it a bit more later also to improve it.

Update: This is not the final look, fonts, colors and banner might change, feedback though is appreciated. Also if things look strange, like if the font looks ugly, do a hard refresh .

Update 2: I put the old theme back up since I didn’t have time to work on the new one tonight. Will try to find time to work on the new theme tomorrow again.

Google in Pig Latin

Is it like pig latin day or something? Google.com is all in pig latin. Here is a screenshot incase you miss it.

Update: Something is strange, it doesn’t work with IE or Safari, and none of my friends get the pig latin page except for me….

Update 2: Tivo-Guy found this link. Still no clue how and why I am getting piglatin as default for my google.com page.

B-Side 194 26/5/05

Today I had a tough time choosing my picture of the day. I was going to go for this one but decided to go for the more traditional fishing boat picture. This B-Side picture was taking inside the Kout Mall. This Nissan Armada was parked in the middle of the fountain I guess as a display or something.

iPod SmartDeck

smart deck

I don’t know how I missed this, maybe because at first glance the tape adapter looks like a regular tape adapter. But, when you read on you realize that this is not regular by any means. The Griffin Technology tape adapter actually allows you to control your ipod using your cars tape deck! Someone told me about this 5 minutes ago and I was like no way, then I checked out the site and turns out its true. This means we can ditch the crappy iTrip and finally get some decent sound. The SmartDeck is coming out soon and you can preorder it now for only $29.99 [Link]
