Your Astrological Ice Cream Sign An article published on AOL tries to predict what flavors of ice cream make you go nuts based on your astrological sign.I'm a Pisces. Here's what it has to say about me... You're a sensualist at heart, Pisces. You swoon for the luxurious mix of chocolate ice cream swirled with peanut butter, or a vanilla sundae with caramel topping, whipped cream and toasted nuts. Jamocha Almond Fudge is one of your favorites … the combination of creamy and nutty textures turns you on. You find Mint Chocolate Chip refreshing, and you adore the sensation of those thin chocolate strips melting on your tongue. Starbucks' Java Chip keeps you going when you're burning the candle at both ends.I suppose I do love the coffee-based ice creams. I'm often found at a local Starbuck's sucking down on a Venti Mocha Frappuccino while tippy-tappying on my keyboard. But then, who doesn't like chocolate ice cream? Booze Cruise For the truly lazy or those who are afraid to park too close to other cars when stepping out to catch a ball game at the local park, the Cruzin Cooler might be just what you're looking for. The Cruzin Cooler is basically a cooler with wheels and a scooter attached - see picture. This item comes in regular gas guzzling form, as well as, for the environmentally conscious, an electric variety. Both the electric and gas models come in differing power ranges for those in hilly areas or if you just need to cart around a bigger payload. It is available in several colors including blue, red, white, yellow, black to fit your asthetic senses and retails starting at under $350. If you've got a pooch you also need to cart around, the device can be purchased with an optional trailer, complete with rack & pinion steering, to hold Spike.No word on whether you can be arrested for driving this sucker drunk! If you are having trouble visualizing this scooter in action, check out the Video courtesy of ABC News. Pitbull Knocked Out By Bambi A deer apparently out "wilding" in Wisconsin smashed through a window and entered an apartment Monday morning. Residents slammed the door shut when the deer ran into a bathroom. Unfortunately for Shadow, the family's pitbull, he also was locked inside the bathroom. Deer are clever so after this one knocked out the pitbull, it then turned on the faucets and flooded the apartment.
Cow Brains Now Banned From Lipstick Apparently, the Food and Drug Administration established a new regulation that bans the use of cow brains in lipstick. Apparently, cosmetic makers have been using cow brains and spinal cords to make lipstick.The Food and Drug Administration has told cosmetics makers they can no longer use brain and spinal cord tissue from older cattle in lipstick, hair sprays, and other products, reports The Associated Press. The fact that they were used at all will likely surprise millions of women who use these products daily. And that's not the only surprise: The new FDA regulations still allow use of these animal tissues in cosmetics as long as they come from younger cattle.No fair! What good is a rainbow party without cow brains? Never Bet The Devil Your Head Reuters reports the case of a man who lowered himself into a lion's cage while exclaiming "God will save me if he exists" was, obviously, mauled to death by the lions.If he exists? While instances of stupidity by human beings are around us every day, it is difficult to find one quite as stupid as this. I mean to say, why double dare God in such a no win proposition? If God exists and he saves you, now you now there is a God but he's going to be mad at you for having challenged him. If he exists and doesn't save you, you still know there is a God but now you're dead and he's going to be mad at you. If God doesn't exist, then you're just going to be dead. There's no good side to this. In the words of Edgar Allen Poe, never bet the devil your head! Bags In Trees Bags In Trees is a photo blog specializing in wayward plastic grocery bags that got caught in trees, specifically in the City of Baltimore.Apparently these guys walk around Baltimore armed with digital cameras, looking for trees with bags in them. I don't know if this is art, humor, or if this is commentary. But this is the kind of inspiration I'm always searching for. OK, let's see if I can come up something... Diapers on Lawns Stickers on Street Signs Barf on Parking Lots Smashed Ketchup Bags on Sidewalks Maybe I better stick to Strange New Products. |
