THE COTTON MAN IS COMING


This lady suffers from a phobia about cotton and has a recurring nightmare of being attacked by a man made of cotton. Maury Povich makes her dreams come true.

SEASON'S GREETINGS


Here's a special Xmas/New Year cheer from Focus:


YOU'RE MY HEART, YOU'RE MY SOUL

Stuck in a traffic jam, a Russian bus driver gets on the intercom and entertains his passengers with a beatbox rendition of Modern Talking's "You're My Heart, You're My Soul." Yeah, I hate beatboxing as much as you do, but this guy's pretty great once he gets going.


The original:


PORK PANTIES

My friend Danni took this photo in Yunnan, South China, where they dry their meat alongside their laundry.


PIRANHAS EAT MAN

Whilst working on a gas line in the Amazon riverbasin, an excavator fell into the piranha-infested waters. The operator smashed the cab's glass to free himself, but cut his hand in the process. The blood attracted flesh-eating fish who, in a feeding frenzy, stripped his head to the skull. Warning: GRUESOME

UFOS, BLUD

Hey Deutschland! Why so gay?

MORE CRAZY FROM THE CHINESE CIRCUS

Remember those Chinese circus bears who beat each other up in a boxing ring? I thought that was pretty next level, but then along trundles this daredevil riding a motorbike on a tightrope while balancing a girl on a swing, elbows on handlebars, all nonchalent.

Nothing can top that guy. Although this lion riding a horse gives him a good run for his money.

PS: Is it me or does the horse above have the same look in his eye as the fish below?


STUNTMAN FROM THE 1930s



BLACK BELT BABOON

Work out.

Power up.

Kick ass



GOD THINKS THIS STINKS

Rollen Stewart goofed around at major US sporting events in the 1980s, using a multicoloured wig and wacky antics to get his pro-Jesus slogans on TV. At first The Rainbow Man became a bit of a celebrity, but then he became a bit of a nuisance and people tired of him. Desperate for attention, he set off stink bombs at gigs to show non-believers how "God thinks this stinks." Then in 1992 he finally flipped and took several hostages at gunpoint to a hotel room. He's now in jail serving three consecutive life sentences. There's a documentary about him and there's also this old ESPN clip. I like his glasses.



BEST HEADLINE EVER (THIS WEEK)



Anti-kidnap expert kidnapped.

NEW BFF

OMG, OMG, I <3 The Hulk and Pirates Of The Caribbean too!!! But babes, you need to take out that rubbish bag on the door.


A BAG OF BRAIN ON ICE

I was walking down the street in Shanghai when I stumbled across this tantalizing treat. It's yummy pig brain kept fresh on block of ice. Now, eating hog head has been linked to a host of mysterious neurological illnesses, but at 20p a pop, who could resist this? To. Die. For.

MIDNIGHT IS THE TIME I NEED YOU


Everything about this is AMAZING!

Why did he miss, twice, idiot.

COOLEST COUPLE IN DALSTON

Our friends Mike Gabel and Jennifer Earle, aka Duotard, have been shot for The Selby, that site which features photographs of interesting people in their creative spaces.



Selby has also shot Fergadelic, the lovely Lesley Arfin, and a bunch of others.

BULLSEYE!!!

Not only did this kid survive, he actually got off without losing his eye or his brain! The arrow went through 11-year-old Liu Cheong's eye socket, and into his head, and was only stopped by the back of his skull. Surgeons at Jida Hospital in Changchun, eastern China, managed to remove the 16-inch arrow without damaging optic nerves or brain tissue. The classmate who shot him is being treated for shock.


FROM THEN TO YOU




THE BEATLES CHRISTMAS ALBUM 1963-69

As it's Christmas coming up soon, here is THE BEATLES CHRISTMAS ALBUM which compiles all 7 Christmas records given to members of The Beatles fan club from 1963 to 1969. The recording are just a collection of messages by The Beatles to the fans thanking them and talking about stuff and joking around, my favourite is probably the third one from '65 as it's just them being cheeky little scousers, enjoy.

BRITISH KID'S TV IN THE 1980s


While the US had Sesame Street and The Muppet Show, we had fucking Playschool. I'm still mad about it.

RODAYIAKJPAGHHHHHHHHHH!!!


RODAIDH has a blog, it'll be great.

MUSIC/FILM CRITICS ARE CUNTS




I hate critics, who the fuck do they think they are telling me what I should and shouldn't be listening/watching, as if some cunt who I don't know knows best. I've always felt that being a critic (especially music ones) is a horrible job, you probably start doing it because you love music/films but you're not actually talented enough to make it yourself and you think what could be better than listening to music/watching films for a living, then you realise (or maybe you don't) that like most things 99% of the stuff you listen/watch is a big pile of shit, and soon after listening/watching shit every day and convincing us and yourself that what you're listening/watching is great you soon have no idea what is good and what isn't and your love for music/films has dissapeared because you never actually have time to listen/watch the things that you really like and instead have to just have some vague knowledge of everything shit and no deep understanding or love of anything worthwhile. THIS film critic however I don't think falls into the typical music/film critic stereotype I just mentioned above, I think she actually might be deaf and blind and gets paid to write nice things aswell as just not having fucking clue.

Also, I hate people who say they love Lester Bangs, WHY, he didn't do anything, I do like listening to Mark Kermode though, not because he has good taste (he doesn't, he thinks Pan's Labyrinth is the best film in the past 10 years and that The Exorcist is the greatest film ever), but he's good at moaning.

CREEP DOESN'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK

For over a year Peter Trigger, 59, has been dressing as a schoolgirl, hanging around near a primary school, and behaving inappropriately around children. Trigger is also often seen wearing a knee-length lab coat with what appears to be nothing underneath. The police have tried stepping in to explain how his behaviour is affecting others, but he has taken none of this on board and is adamant that he can dress however he likes.

JAMES HORNER


JAMES HORNER - S/T-48 HRS & ANOTHER 48 HRS


JAMES HORNER - S/T-COMMANDO
Password - Score-Brother-1989

Who remembers the soundtracks to 48 HRS and COMMANDO, I always remember them being quite similar with the cool lone saxophone player (why do I always picture a naked guy at night by an open window with the wind blowing the curtains playing the sax when I hear a saxophone solo, especially when I listen to Vangelis' Love Theme) and steel drums, so I just had a look to see if I could download them and guess what, they're both by the same dude, JAMES HORNER who I've since found out also did the soundtracks for shit loads of films including Apocalypto, Titanic, Braveheart and Field of Dreams although I don't recall any other of his soundtracks having steel drums and saxophone, not sure why, it sounds fucking amazing, the links were taken from other blogs by the way, HERE and HERE.

FOREIGN HIDDEN CAMERA SHOWS


They're great aren't they, they always have weird over the top sound effects, crap music, really bad canned laughter and the jokes are so bad they're actually funny, but what I really like is that the hidden cameras blatantly aren't hidden at all, unless the hidden cameras are disguised as people holding cameras right next to the people being filmed on 3 different cameras.

HERMETO PASCOAL CAN PLAY ANYTHING


I was hipped to Hermeto Pascoal by my baked buddies over at Arthur magazine. This acclaimed Brazilian composer recorded with Miles Davis - who called him "the most impressive musician in the world" - but is best known for making music using unconventional instruments: splashing in water, strumming his facial hair, blowing bubbles into saucepans, squealing with pigs, etc, etc.


HELLO BUDDY


Our good friend BEN RAYNER has a special gift of being able to communicate with dogs (or buddies as he calls them), and to celebrate this extraordinary ability he has made a photo book just of dogs called HELLO BUDDY with the launch and private view tonight, so come down and get drunk and look at photos of dogs.
