QOTD & JOTD #2

Monday, 16 June, 2008 · Leave a Comment

QOTD:

Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.

Judy Garland

JOTD:

A woman gets on a bus with her baby. The bus driver says: "That's the
ugliest baby that I've ever seen. Ugh!" The woman goes to the rear of
the bus and sits down, fuming. She says to a man next to her: "The
driver just insulted me!" The man says: "You go right up there and tell
him off – go ahead, I'll hold your monkey for you."

If you got a strong stomach..

Monday, 16 June, 2008 · 2 Comments

I found a picture-series, featuring probably one of the last on this earth to practice the Chinese secret way to a happy marriage;

From wikipedia:

Foot binding (literally “bound feet”) was a custom practiced on young girls or females for approximately one thousand years in China, beginning in the 10th century and ending in the early 20th century.

According to a study conducted by the University of California at San Francisco, “As the practice waned, some girls’ feet were released after initial binding, leaving less severe deformities.” Some effects of foot binding are permanent. In the 1990s and 2000s some elderly Chinese women still suffered from disabilities related to bound feet.

The custom is commonly cited by sociologists and anthropologists as an example where an extreme deformity (by the standards of both contemporary societies and from a medical viewpoint) can be viewed as beauty, and also where immense human suffering can be inflicted in the pursuit of a beauty standard.

Deezer – Free music

Monday, 16 June, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Sometimes you might get the lust to listen to some rock-classics from the ’80’s or maybe the new Britney-song (Guess not.).

Well, anyways, the best place to do such a thing would be to use Deezer.com.

They have a HUGE selection of songs, recommended songs, playlists and such!

And you probably will find artists there, that you wouldn’t have found other places.

This time it’s all about Wikipedia and all the weird stuff you didnt have a clue excisted!

“Wikipedia is the new online-source when it comes to facts.

Never before has there been so much information available in one place. Wikipedia is

now listed as an safe source for school-work and research.”

What else than boring facts about cats and tress does it have?
