news-printing-pressAs many of you know I like to keep abreast of the news on various networks and often come across interesting stories and headlines which I like to highlight.

I’ve decided to go all out and pick the headlines I thought were great, funny, outrageous and downright evil.

1. You give some head, you get some: Dutch return head of Ghana King.

2. Every man’s dream come true:  Swedish Lesbians suck sperm banks dry.

3. And you thought your credit card bills were bad: Visa Accidentelly Bills North Salem Teen $23 Quadrillion.

4. Working for this company’s service department could give you serious eye-burns: Pepper-spray defense for cash machines.

5. IRC becomes real life – Teenager with asperger’s creates his own fictional airline.

More to come later.. news willing. ;)

The Daily (hate)Mail has an interesting report on prints for garage doors.

They report:

These utterly realistic images are printed on plastic sheets which are stuck on garage doors – the latest craze for home owners who want to not so much keep up with, as totally freak out, the Joneses

Here’s an image of a print you can get made for on your garage door.

Naturally I’ve thought of some for myself…

The Space/Time hole door

The Space/Time hole door

The Republican Door

The Republican Door

The Boobies Door.

The Boobies Door.

I’d personally go for the boobies door. Just to freak out the neighbours.

Published by sn0r under Snor

s_twenty-pound-notesThe BBC did an interesting report on how much kids know about money. They went to Cedarwood Primary School at Kesgrave, near Ipswich to find out what a group of 9 year old children knew about finance.

Some of the answers to the questions reporters asked were classic examples of how children think. Here’s a sampling:

Q: Do you know an average house costs about £150,000?
A: Now I know why my mum keeps on saying that we are poor!

Q: If you had £1m, what would you do with it?
A: I would drive to London, earn another £1m, then I would pay the Queen for her house. She can live in my old house.

Q: If you had children but not enough money to feed them, what would you do?
A: I’d make sure I looked good so I could get a very rich husband who could pay for things.
