Ugliest Dog!


A dog named Sam, is a 14-year-old pedigreed Chinese crested owned by Susie Lockheed of Santa Barbara, California. In June 2005, Sam won the "World's Ugliest Dog" title at the Sonoma-Marin Fair contest for the third consecutive year.

Oh man! Sam is not only ugly, he is one scary looking dog like those creatures from the movie, "Gremlins". This dog is a nightmare!!!

Wool made Ferrari!


Here is a sports car you could pullover very smartly in a Ferrari knitted from WOOL. Art student Lauren Porter spent ten months making the full-size replica using 12 MILES of yarn. The car, a cross between a Testarossa and a 355, is made of more than 250 squares over a steel frame and the horse badge is hand-embroidered. Lauren, 22, who goes to Bath Spa University, said: “I get men admiring the racing lines and old women look at the needlework.”

One Green Ugly Duckling!

Amazingly Weird Dish!


I thought eating scorpians and insects are weird but look at this. A crocodile head for a meal! Yucks!

This is called delicacy that was prepared during a Zhejiang gourmet competition. Although it looks scary, the Chinese believe that crocodile meat can be used to cure minor ailments such as cough, asthma, rheumatism and diabetes! This also proves a saying that Chinese typically eat anything ranging from those that crawl on ground to those that fly in the air.

Would you want to try it? Hehehe...

Weird Operation.


Caesarean. An alternative way to give birth other than natural birth but we all know that it has been used on humans. This one is on a turtle! Damn!

Keepers at Chengdu City Zoo sent the turtle, called Dabao, to hospital for an x-ray to find out why she was so lethargic, reports China Central Television.

The zoo sent the turtle to Chengdu 416 Hospital for a caesarean delivery, and doctors more used to human patients managed to improvise.

World's Biggest Cheese Burger!


Bob's BBQ & Grill of Pattaya, Thailand has smashed the current record for producing the world's biggest cheeseburger. The landmark in cheeseburger history was created in celebration of the king of Thailand's 60th year accession to the throne and was part of a wide range of events being held all year in Thailand to mark the occasion.

Measuring 60 CM (23.5 inches) in diameter and 35 CM (13.75 inches) in height, the burger has been named Big Bob's Texas Belt Buster and is on the regular menu and can be ordered 12 hours in advance.

The birth of the burger started off with a custom made bun made in Bob's in house bakery, and then 25 Kg (55.12 pounds) of Bob's top quality beef was cooked 6 ½ hours down to 20.4 Kg (45 pounds). No burger is complete with toppings and this burger was topped off with 2 large heads of lettuce, 15 tomato's, 4 large onions, 35 slices of cheese, 1 ½ cups of mustard, 1 cup of ketchup, 4 whole pickles, 4 whole JalapeƱos. Once the official certification is received it will be added to the Guinness World records database under The World's Largest Commercially Available Hamburger.

What can I say? Yummy yum yum! Hahaha!!!

Cardboard Cop Car.


New Zealand has a witty and brilliant idea to slow down traffic efficiently. A cardboard cutout police car is slowing traffic at Nelson roadworks sites in an initiative that roading contractor Fulton Hogan hopes to push nationwide.

The cardboard cut out of a traffic police is used at Hira on and there was no doubt that it was more effective than speed restriction signs. It also reduced the number of cars travelling at over 60kmh from 21 out of 50 to five out of 50 and the average speed dropped 15kmh.

Interesting right?

Real Transformer

I am a big fan of the cartoon series "Transformers". Cool robots that transforms into vehicles or things and vice-versa. This video that I found in YouTube is cool. Crazy Japs actually created a real miniature transformer robot :) Enjoy the video.
