How to get a free meal


Email from Papa B -- subject: Free meal.

First take the tram up to the start of the trail.

Now follow the path.

Be sure to hold on to the 'railing'.

Keep an eye on the person in front of you.

Be very careful when passing someone going in the opposite direction.

Now just up a few steps (they are on the left in the picture).

It gets a little steeper here - so put your toes in the holes.

A few more steps to go.

Finally in sight!


This restaurant is in China
If you manage to reach the restaurant the food is free!
Let me know how the food is. I'm not going!

Wearable Protein


The Backcountry Blog describes the latest in outdoor apparel.

Kavu makes your secret vegan fantasy of covering yourself in tofu a reality...

...with their Soy Verde clothing. Kavu makes these hoodies and shorts from 54% soybean fiber, 44% organic cotton, and 3% spandex.

They say the eco-friendly fabric has a lush, almost greasy feel that’s unlike any other fabric.

If it really had a greasy feel, then it would definitely be unlike any other fabric. The truth is that it feels like thick, garment-washed cotton. Please don’t make any Lewinski jokes about wearing protein, especially if you get Kavu’s blue skirt (damn, broke my own rule).

Ewwwwww.

Death Burger 3583


That's what I'd call it -- but then, I have naturally high cholesterol. Bernie sent me the link to AOL's high calorie fast food featuring the superstar of fat.

That would be Wendy's Baconator, a heart-busting extravaganza of sodium, saturated fat and delicious beef n' bacon. Chock full of fat (103 grams, or roughly double the normal recommended daily intake), salt (1800 milligrams, almost an entire day's worth), and calories (1680, ditto), the Baconator features an unrivaled taste experience (and angina).

Quick! Rub the paddles together... Clear!

Some major nocchus for GM Roper


Venture on over to GM Roper's site and give him a virtual high five.

After being diagnosed with lung cancer in 2006, GM just found out that he is ready for another life stage. Well done, GM -- and keep up the good fight!

Oh. What's with Raquel Welch, you ask? Er, well GM must be older than dirt, thus the pic from 1,000,000 BC.

When wise guys attack


The party that precipitated the great hair gel shortage of 2007.

Kids: be warned that excessive tanning will damage your retinas.

The post-production party from the new show Project Oompa Loompa.

The hedgehog coiff was popular for a couple of days last summer.

Close call: these guys were just two tanning-bed settings from death.

Hair: check. Pink jacket: checkety-check. Date: check and mate, biznatch!

Happy hour at the bodybuilding hairdressers convention.

Supah Wiseguy!

Tan-in-a-can meets fake-and-bake.

Calm down ladies - none of these dudes are taken.

Why women live longer than men: a photo essay

 
A man stands on a bucket supported by a ladder. Stability is assured by the other man -- also standing on a ladder -- who holds the bucket.

The odds of all these connections all being right? About the same odds that Jean-Claude Van Damme will pick up an Oscar next year.

Doesn't look like anything can go wrong here.

It's not a violation of the seatbelt laws if it's a dead body.

Yes, that's a canoe sitting unsecured in a moving flatbed truck. And the occupant isn't wearing a life preserver.

I hope this excavation was worth it. Like digging up platinum-covered diamonds for instance.

Trucks are overrated.



These must be the same guys who did the junction box.

Who needs a jack when we've got rocks?

Note the sign that says Clearance (inset). Maybe it was too high to be read.

The force of the bungee cord is strong with you, my son.

Hey, there was no warning sign on the bridge that said trucks not allowed!

Hey, there was no warning sign on the chair that said not to stick my head through it!

Here's the plan: you hold it real still while I pound it in with a sledgehammer while standing on the 'dozer.

New stackable bucket-ladder from Ronco!

And they say women are bad drivers?

Heavy Duty Chainsaws: they're not just for experienced professionals any more!
