The closest most of us 'round here will ever get to outer space is blogging about the Lunar X Prize, so our inner astronauts get rather giddy any time an amateur makes it to the cusp of the gravity well. The above photos were taken by the Meteotek team, a teacher and his four students from the IES La Bisbal school in Catalonia, Spain. The group designed and launched a balloon kitted out with a Nikon Coolpix and custom built electronics, intending to get some shots at 30,000 feet. Well exceeding their expectations, the $80 digicam (held aloft by a $60 latex balloon) reached over 100,000 feet, at which point it lost inflation and fell to the earth.

New trend in Moscow, Russia:

Still dazed after being anaesthetised for three hours, a pedigree pet is hauled upright to show off its new tattoo. The controversial “body enhancement” was carried out on Mickey – a rare Canadian Hairless breed also known as a Sphynx cat. His female owner was said to be delighted with the Tutankhamun design inked on to his chest at a tattoo parlour. She said: “I wanted something new and different for the times we live in.

Horrible masks, look like real.
Choose one to scare your neighbour, lol.

Present it in a sexy way, he will like it. Take the compatibility test (for fun).

1. You must first learn to pronounce the city name, it is L. A.

2. The morning rush hour is from 5:00 a.m. to noon. The evening rush hour is from noon to 7:00 p.m. Friday’s rush hour starts on Thursday morning.

3. The minimum acceptable speed on most freeways is 85 mph. On the 105 or 110, your speed is expected to match the highway number. Anything less is considered “Wussy.”

4. Forget the traffic rules you learned elsewhere. L A has its own version of traffic rules. For example, cars/trucks with the loudest muffler go first at a four-way stop; the trucks with the biggest tires go second. However, in Malibu, SUV-driving, cellphone-talking moms ALWAYS have the right of way.

Some time ago Mr. Clinton was hosting a state dinner when at the last minute his regular cook took ill and they had to get a replacement at short notice. The fellow arrived and turned out to be a very grubby looking man named Jon. The President voiced his concerns to his chief of staff but was told that this was the best they could do at such short notice.

Just before the meal, the President noticed the cook sticking his fingers in the soup to taste it and again he complained to the chief of staff about the cook, but he was told that this man was supposed to be a very good chef. The meal went okay but the President was sure that the soup tasted a little off, and by the time dessert came, he was starting to have stomach cramps and nausea.

The only thing that the IRS has not yet taxed is the male penis. This is due to the fact that 40% of the time it is hanging around unemlpoyed, 30% of the time it is hard up, 20% of the time it is pissed off and 10% of the time it is in the hole. On top of that, it has two dependents and they are both nuts.

Effective January 1st, 2009 your penis will be taxed according to size. The brackets are as follows:

10″- 12″ Luxury Tax……….$30.00
8″- 10″ Pole Tax…………$25.00
5″- 8″ Privilege Tax………$15.00
4″- 5″ Nuisance Tax……….$3.00

How did it happen I wonder?
Take a look at these photos and learn what's happened.

Lol crazy russian!

Take a look at this stupid joke))

Strokkur is a geyser in the geothermic region beside the Hvítá River in Iceland.

Strokkur is only a few meters away from Geysir. However, unlike Geysir which erupts infrequently and may be dormant for years at a time, Strokkur erupts very reliably every 5-10 minutes, hurling boiling water to heights of up to 20 metres (70ft) towards the sky.

Michael Poliza is a successful German IT entrepreneur who sold his companies in 1997 and started an expedition photographing the remote wildernesses of the world especially in South Africa. His work has been widely published in magazines that includes National Geographic, Nature’s Best Photography, Africa Geographic and Travel Africa.

Visitors to the Ukrainian resort town of Truskavets, already renowned for its life-preserving mineral springs, will soon be able to tempt fate by drinking in the world's largest coffin.

The coffin, 20 metres long, six metres wide, and six metres high will be called Eternity and is the brainchild of a local group of undertakers. 'Thirty cubic metres of pine have been used for the construction,' said Andri, one of those behind the new enterprise. He refused to give his surname.
