Ultra smooth electic shaver from Philips RQ1295
What was originally an impulse purchase turned out to be one heck of an investment. I suffer from quite a rough stubble which grows really thick really fast. Sick of razor burns, I decided to buy an electric shaver at “Shavers Shop”, and a combination of good salesmanship from the girl in-charge, and my particularly…
When good paintings go bad during restorations!!
After seeing this picture of JC from a Spanish church ruined by an elderly “artist”, I remembered a quote from a US senator about the US going into Iraq and deposing Saddam Hussein. That man said very wisely, not to fix something if its not broken. The Jr Bush didn’t listen to him and we…
What was Will Smith thinking when he made this shitty movie?
After Earth, it will go down in history as one of Will Smith’s biggest disasters!!
Douchebaggery runs in the family
I always assumed Mark Wahlberg rates among the biggest douche-bags in the world, until I found out about the existence of a bigger douche, his brother Robert Wahlberg. If you feel my characterization of these two brothers is a bit harsh, I recommend you watch “The Village” by Mark, and an episode of “Blue…
NRA and Taliban, not so different in their effect on America
I rest my case!! It’s such a shame a country as advanced as US has the same sense of security as a war torn middle eastern country. More mass killings this year than ever, more people died in these shootings just this year than they died in all terrorists attacks since 9/11. What a damn…
A little note of thank you to all the holiday workers!!
I was at Coles supermarket last night and saw a whole army of workers stocking and restocking the aisles for the holidays. It made me realise that there is a whole section of people who are toiling very hard to keep the holidays go smoothly. May it be the hardworking shift workers at the local…
Relax, its not the end of the world!!
I Saw this beer commercial when I Was living in Ireland a few years ago. The Irish sure have a sense of humour and with their funny accents its even more amusing to the foreigners. This commercial makes a lot more sense today because of the Mayan calendar crap. Take a look, and enjoy. This…
The real reasons for the mayan calendar ending today!!
So my theory about the Mayan calendar ending today was correct. They either ran out of paper and ink and decided this should be enough for now…. or, the dude writing the calendar thought f@#$ it, they will have computers by then, they are not going to look at this stupid calendar anyway!!! and decided…
The books I read this year ( 2012)
This year has been crazy busy at work and I feel like the whole year flew by me just like that. Delivered three major projects to clients, and in general had a pretty busy professional schedule. However, I am quite happy with my reading list this year. Though I didn’t read as many books as…
Obscene obsessions with guns and who is most at risk?
After the several violent events in the United States, and especially with the most recent tragedy where 20 children were killed there sure will be a big debate about the gun ownership. However, without going into that argument at all, I have the following to say. Most often, people use self defense as a compelling…
