Oh Crap - Not Another Celebrity DUI

So Nicole Ritchie has been arrested for driving under the influence - not alcohol, of course that would be way to cheap. But she was completely out of it when arrested and now faces a media feeding frenzy.

It follows on the heels of Paris Hilton's brush with the law which resulted in thousands of hours of television coverage and acres of newsprint.

Lindsay Lohan has also been in the news for drunk driving and is reportedly wearing an ankle bracelet to monitor her alcohol consumption.

There is nothing funny about alcohol and drug abuse and it's especially unfunny when you try to drive. You turn your car into a lethal weapon.

But I get the feeling that none of this has anything to do with a celebrity cry for help. Nicole Ritchie is just pissed off at the publicity Paris Hilton gained and wants some for herself. Lindsay doesn't care about the ankle bracelet though I bet she wishes it was by the right designer.

Celebrities assume there is no bad publicity - just publicity and that is the air they breathe. They can afford rehab so the judge will go easy on them when they show up in court and demonstrate they are trying to mend their ways. Above all they have clever lawyers who will make sure the sentence is the least possible.

Meanwhile the poor schmucks who can't afford the rehab and the lawyers will get a jail sentence for sure.

What a pisser. It makes me want to go and drown my sorrows.

UFO Disguised As A Cloud

This guy claims to have seen UFOs disguised as clouds and has the video and photographic evidence to prove it - or maybe he just saw clouds.

Watching clouds is a great and wonderful pastime when you just want to relax but please ... UFOs?

What a pillock!

It's Cool Being An Engineer

This is a great piece of video.



I'm sorry to disappoint anyone who thinks it's real or put together by a non-professional. Sadly it's an advert for the Norwegian Hydro company trying to show how cool it is to be an engineer and probably cost a small fortune.

It's fantastic though - and apparently there are two of them in the series. I haven't found the other yet

Ten Thoughts to Ponder

Yeah - why not some thoughts for the day?

10. Life is sexually transmitted.

9. Good health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.

8. Men have two emotions: Hungry and Horny. If you see him without an erection, make him a sandwich.

7. Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day; teach a person to use the Internet and they won’t bother you for weeks.

6. Some people are like a Slinky…not really good for anything, but you still can’t help but smile when you shove them down the stairs.

5. Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.

4. All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

3. Why does a slight tax increase cost you two hundred dollars and a substantial tax cut saves you thirty cents?

2. In the 60’s, people took acid to make the world weird. Now The world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.

AND THE NUMBER 1 THOUGHT:

We know exactly where one cow with Mad-cow-disease is located among the millions and millions of cows in America but we haven’t got a clue as to where thousands of illegal immigrants and terrorists are located. Maybe we should put the Department of Agriculture in charge of immigration.

Bet We Couldn't Do This

Not only only could we not do this but the guy who pulled off this amazing shot couldn't do it again - I wonder how many times it took before it went in.
