bizzarre - but then wasn't there a contest to see who could stand still whilst holding onto a car for the longest possible time..? - or was I really that caned and imagined it on My name is Earl..?

 

Hey mr cat, I didn't recognise you with your new coat

Yes, you are right and I suppose Japanese "endurance" programs are even more dangerous and obscene (IMO). Do people really find these programs entertaining?

 

yeah - its my winter coat!

ah - the japanese one did tread the line very finely...but I did find them quite funny tho (at times!)...

this is some japanese stuff - but a bit tamer...funny all the same!

i keep thinking of this award they give out every year named after some famous explorer / biologist bloke...

 

Do you mean the Darwin awards?

yeah, there was an e-mail going around some time ago (regarding the darwin awards) that mentioned some builder who had filled in a sick note...you may know the one its where he's filled up a barrel that too heavy etc...

well, I was listening to the following track this week, and hey - does it ring any bells..?

Will they have to call the Darwin awards something else in America soon, seeing as they're rejecting evolution in favour of creationism.....?

Maybe the Moses awards, 's got a nice ring to it...?

 

Oh, I was hoping for a nice heated BB rant!

 

Is there any point? It's already been blown out of all proportion. Just as well I don't watch much TV.

 

why would someone want to rant about ball bearings? did they dis god too?

 

Because they were not round?

 

If you believe in God or not, it's fairly obvious we are de-evolving.
