Internet dating has moved into much more sleazy territory.

These days ads posted on line are often simply prostitutes posing as women seeking sex and friendship as one sting operation in the USA discovered! Not only that but a whole host of services aimed explicitly at obtaining quick sex via an Internet dating site have suddenly sprung up. I know because their ads appear even on an on line soccer management game I use!

You just can't avoid sex on the internet it seems....

Have you noticed how commodity prices are going up and up and breaking new records everyday? Its not just oil prices but almost every natural resource and raw material. And you can forget what the politicians say about speculation driving up prices - thats just a knee jerk reaction and an attempt to detract attention from the real problem. Which is - too many people on planet earth chasing too few natural resources....

After posting the last article on the animal Farm/Brothel, I actually found an entire paper discussing the ethics and pros/cons of sex with robots! apparently, robot prostitution is considered to be a highly likely factor of future human life.... even more so after this particular robot was unveiled in Japan recently....

I couldn't help blogging on this one. The Seattle Times is now measuring hits to its website and the news stories it prints online. Apparently, the most popular story by far is one regarding a man who died from injuries sustained from having sex with a horse.

Actually, the story is even more bizarre than that. Apparently, bestiality is legal in Washington state where cases must be tried on the grounds of animal cruelty. The story suggests that the farm on which the horse lived is nothing more than an animal brothel for paying clients!

While police determined that they couldn't prosecute the owners in relation to the horse sex incident, they were examining the smaller animals on the farm for signs of sexual abuse hoping that they could prosecute for animal abuse.

The European Union - an entity promoted by eager politicians who apparently continue to turn a deaf ear to European citizens - is going through some serious issues. Not only did the Irish citizenry show their distaste for all things 'European' recently by sending a puppet to represent them in the Eurovision song contest but they had the audacity to vote against the EU constitution! Now the Poles and Czechs have also highlighted the Euro division between politicians seeking more power for themselves and the average European citizen who simply wants the EU to go away.

If you like on line gambling sites, this one seems to have a lot going for it though I confess, I haven't played there. available in multiple languages, the site appears well designed and features table games, slots and 3D games. Right now, they have a promotion offering a 50% bonus on your first deposit up to $100 as well as several other promotions. Of course, with a name like BlackJack Club, the site features blackjack too!

Due to recent U.S. regulations, the site is no longer accepting U.S. players but if you visit the site from the United States you will probably be brought to a page that says it cannot accept U.S. Players. However, you can still pick the option 'Play for Free' if that happens.

I've been posting to this blog now for around 6-months. Traffic has built up over that time and I must have made 200 posts already. I had assumed that a site that looked at the news and life in a sarcastic and humorous manner would attract a variety of people - perhaps mostly student age. Was I wrong!

Web statistics show that the vast majority of my readers are men between the ages of 40 and 48. Women - where are you? Students - where are you? Finding out this fact, I started to do some research...

A quick trip to Switzerland early this week turned into the trip to hell. I was recovering from a nasty flu bug already but on my second evening in Switzerland the sweet and sour chicken turned out to be more sour than sweet. I awoke at 1:30am and promptly threw up and kept on throwing up until, the sweet and sour made it far enough through for my insides to recoil in horror and make sitting in the toilet as opposed to looking in it, a necessity. What a night!

Finally, I go to sleep around the time to get up and had to go to visit a client to work. I still felt terrible and was afraid I would monopolize their bathroom. However, I avoided food and all seemed to turn out reasonably well.

Once upon a time trade shows of almost any kind were littered with semi-naked women draped seductively over cars, trucks, bikes or whatever it was that was being sold. Yes - Sex sells and the Booth Babe dominated at trade shows. These days or some reason the Booth Babes appear to have gone away. More and more trade shows now ban the Booth Babe and trade shows are arguably more boring for it.

Teen pregnancy s a serious issue and not one I would usually see fit to comment on here in a funny manner but this headline truly caught my eye. Yes, 17 teenage girls all became pregnant at a High School in the Boston area causing a statistical teen pregnancy spike off the scale. School officials became concerned when girls kept on requesting pregnancy tests at the school and were plainly disappointed when the results were negative but delighted when the results were positive.

Well, the strangeness around the severed feet washing up on beaches in British Columbia, Canada get's even weirder today as it is announced that the latest foot is a hoax. DNA testing suggests the severed foot is actually a skeletonized animal paw shoved into an Adidas shoe. We await news on the other severed foor found nearby recently.

You can find the latest update in this strange and stranger story here.

I guess the success of TV programs where a host of young girls compete for the attentions of a millionaire has spilled over into the on line dating game. Yes folks - now you can find your millionaire mate on line!

I'm sorry but this is ludicrous. Why would a millionaire need an on line dating system membership to meet women or men? Surely, greedy people throw themselves at millionaires every day right? Well, maybe not.... But if money is what you are after - take my advice - make your own.

Meanwhile - want to try to date a millionaire?

Be my guest....

A sixth severed foot was found on a beach in British Columbia, Canada recently leading to further puzzlement over where these feet are coming from. It was the second severed foot found on a beach within days. Pretty damn weird - feet beach pollution!

One theory is that these feet might be coming from a plane wreck - a plane crashed in the area several years ago and many of the bodies have never been recovered...but why would just the feet show up?

Anyway, it can't be doing much for tourism there....

Villagers in Romania have elected a dead man as their Mayor according to a BBC article. But for me, thats not the funny part of the story. The funniest bit is the quote from one of the villagers who had voted to re-elect the Mayor despite the fact that he had recently died. He said "I know he died, but I don't want change". I can't think of any bigger change than dying can you?

Time for a quick update on my progress to date in making cash from blogging. Just recall that I have four blogs and that these numbers represent cash made from all four posting paid articles on them. Also note that the best ranked blog has a PR of zero (thanks payperpost!), an Alexa of 990,000 and a Technorati rank of 220,000. My other blogs have page ranks of 2 or 3 but Alexa and Technorati rankings well below my main blog. Remember - traffic = money and therefore rankings = money too....

So let's look at each money making (article posting service) scheme in turn and look at earnings to date....

A man and his manhood.... some guys just want to be bigger apparently hence all of the services advertised to help them do just that. It's called penis enlargement and according to this site I found, there are any number of safe and effective ways to do it....using a thing called a penis enlarger.

If this is something you are interested in you might go to this page where you can read all about male enhancement.

The funny thing is that I feel sort of wierd discussing this and yet wouldn't have any problem discussing breast enlargement - why is that?

A nice summer cold is going through my house and I caught it. It's a real buggerhoo too. Eyes watering, coughing, sneezing but absolutely tired out even lifting a finger.... I wish someone would come up with a cure for the cold. I'm dropping vitamin C and Zinc but it doesn't seem to be helping....

Oh well. I am miserable....

I will begin this tirade with the statement - I am not Jewish. I am not anything but me. I believe that organized religion is a way to shackle people to a set of thought patterns and keep them controlled. I also think that religion has been hijacked by politicians and those with an axe to grind.

So to my point.

Recently, I had occasion to try to visit Czech officialdom regarding the formation of a company. All I needed was to obtain a document from the local authority - easy right?

Well no, not here.

I went as directed to the government office where I was informed I was at the wrong office. They directed m to another office across town. On arrival there, I was told yet again that I was in the wrong place an directed to another office. There, yes - you guessed, I was told I was in the wrong office and sent back to the place I first started. At the original office I was told yes - this is the correct place!

Apparently, a new swimsuit developed by British manufacturer SPEEDO is taking credit for helping break world swimming records. 30 World swimming records have been broken recently by swimmers wearing the LZR Racer swimsuit which sucks the muscles into the perfect shape to swim and is both lighter than others and repels water to reduce drag.This has got national swim teams like that of Japan worried since they don't have a contract with Speedo in advance of the Olympics.

Many many years ago, our school had a competition where you had to perform a five minute skit. My pal and I entered with a something called "Now that is the Question". It revolved around a conversation between Dr. Who, Dr. What and Dr. That". It was quite childish since the conversation was All around "How is That", "No, I am not, That is That" etc.... but it had the watching teachers in stitches and we won the competition.

And so, I want to introduce a very very funny video I found on Youtube recently that is written in a similar vein. Watch and laugh as we discover just how stupid George W. Bush is....

Goodbye Mr. Bush - your days as President are finally numbered and soon you'll be committed to memory as America's worst ever President....

A Japanese man who lived alone became suspicious when food kept disappearing from his fridge. So he installed a video camera and discovered a strange woman walking around his apartment when he left it. He called the police who searched the apartment and discovered a 58-year old woman living in his closet! She had apparently been living there for over a year unnoticed.

I lived in the US for around 18-years. I enjoyed it immensely and in the process became a US citizen without losing my UK citizenship. It made sense, I was living there, working there, building pension there and I wanted a vote there too. US citizenship is something some people would kill for of that there can be no doubt and it does offer some nice advantages especially when combined with an EU passport. I mean I can walk into the US or any EU country with relatively no hassle and start working there without anyone's permission. Not bad.

Well, this video is simply belly rippingly funny... A soccer referee gives a stellar performance and brings the crowd to its feet...

Readers Digest has it seems been around forever. I recall first seeing it when I was a child in the Doctor's waiting room. I always went straight to the jokes and cartoons section of the small magazine. Of course, today, Readers Digest also has a presence on the web and there you can find those cartoons, jokes and anecdotes along with more modern features such as comic videos and more. You can find the RD funny stuff at RD Laughs Main .

Hilary Clinton now claims the popular vote and has told us that votes don't count until cast - which means she is going all of the way to the Democratic convention in the hope that Sen. Obama makes some blunder between now and then. But hang on. Who would elect a woman who seemingly can't count? And who makes up and changes the rules as she goes? This woman has an ego the size of Everest and believes it is SHE who is important (and her alone) in this election.

Come on Hilary - we know that you love Nazi created PR tactics (If you say something loud enough and often enough people believe it) but we too can count.... and Obama leads in the popular vote....

OK, I promise this will be my last 'Hull City' post for a while. But, I can't help wanting to rant a bit about the media and Hull City. Hull were promoted to the Premier League just last Saturday and within minutes, all sorts of media folks were predicting that Hull City will be relegated back to the Championship after a single year. They (rightly) point to the gap between the two leagues and how fewer than 50% of promoted teams last more than 1 year.... but my god, can we celebrate just a day or two before you start wringing your hands and spelling out disaster and doom?

Do you like Anime? If you do and you live in the US you are in for a treat... Bleach - The Movie is being screened all over the USA for two night - June 11th and June 12th. If you want to see Bleach the Movie, then go and check it out to see if its playing near you.

Sound like a fun film but it ought to have a character called "Asteroth" - I think that is such a cool name and evokes a certain sense of mystery and paranormal - don't you?

Several popular Digg articles discuss a video purportedly of an alien peering through a window in the Colorado area. The video may or may not be released to the media today and has already been judged to be real by an 'expert' although the same article says that Hollywood could make a puppet just like it for around $50,000. I'm sorry but I have to ask this. Why would an alien be peeping through the window of Mr. Joe Average in Colorado?

Living in the Czech Republic I occasionally come across folks with very funny names. For example, there is an actress/model here with the last name Bendova! and another with the last name Partysova! Of course these names are funny because they mean something in English too when pronounced but there are funny names here that require translation. Soustal is a last name that I wouldn't care to have because in English it literally is translated as F**cked! It would be sort of funny if Ms. Bendova got with Mr. Soustal but I suppose that is unlikely....
