When in Scotland
Speaking of visiting Scotland to sample whisky – refer to my last post – you might want to avoid staying at the Rosebank Guest House in Perth *. The owner apparently gets his jollies by secretly filming guests having sex and then watching it out in his shed in the backyard. He allegedly used tiny [...]
Hey presto, rabbit out of a hat
I must admit to being very cynical about the Government’s announcement today that the National Broadband Network (NBN) will deliver speeds much higher than the originally promised 100 mbps. Talk about pulling rabbits out of hats. How convenient, a week and a bit before the election when the government is desperately trying to differentiate itself [...]
Rooting robots
I’ve just been watching Battlestar Galactica, with all its Cylons, the machines that evolved into human form. It seems that we are closer to that fictional universe than you might think. Meet Roxxxy the rootable robot – a sex robot which was introduced at the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas this week, a [...]

Social networking your way to the dole queue

In some cases employees have been sacked, or at least threatened with disciplinary action. The NSW Department of Corrective Services is threatening to sack prison officers over posts they made [...]
Would you like a bigger penis?
I hate spam, its fucking annoying. But, to give some credit where its due, I did find this one amusing. The use of the 8 and 0 is particularly creative. Technorati tags: spam, penis enlargement
About bloody time!
Leading mobile phone manufacturers announced on Tuesday they had agreed to produce a standardised charger for the industry. Hoo-bloody-ray …then we won’t have umpteen chargers sitting around the house/office but never being able to find the one that fits your phone. The standard shape to be adopted by 17 manufacturers including Nokia, Motorola and Samsung [...]

A former student at a high school in Florida is suing her school over disciplinary action taken against her for “cyberbullying”. Katherine Evans, who recently graduated from Pembroke Pines Charter High School north of Miami, Florida is suing principal Peter Bayer for suspending her after she posted negative comments about her English teacher. Ms Evans [...]
Marriage broken, not the iphone
Nice try, but fail! A woman in America discovered a photo of her husband attached to an email sent to another woman on his iphone. The content of the photo, in the wife’s words: “It was a close-up shot of him pleasuring himself taken at the exact moment of maximum pleasure … It’s such a [...]
