First water slide looping in germany

Wtf, I wonder what would happen if you'd purposely try to slow yourself down.

Muscle dog!

Found this picture of a extreme muscled doggy. Its probably photoshoped or otherwise his is on something like dog steriode or something. It still would look good for the lady doggies.
-edit found this on Internet of some kind of dog steriode.

Reproductions of the Eiffel Tower

When Gustave Eiffel (the architect of the Eiffel Tower) designed the Eiffel Tower, he probably couldn't imagine that it would still stand in 2008. And not in his wildest dreams could he imagine that there are around 14 Reproductions (on scale) of the Eiffel Tower these days.

Here are some of them,

This 165 m high replica in the city of fake (las Vegas) is the highest Eiffel tower replica in the world. Build on 1 on 2 scale.

China: the country that specialized in imitating everything have 2 Eiffel Towers with a hight of 100m+ each.

To bad the Eiffel Tower is only built at a smaller scale than the one in Paris. Would be nice if the Germans build one twice as big as the Eiffel Tower to teach the nationalistic French a lesson :)

EPIC Fail

The Blogosphere

It's one of the little joys of life, learning new ridicules little stuff like a new word: The Blogosphere. Wiki: Blogosphere is a collective term encompassing all blogs and their interconnections. It is the perception that blogs exist together as a connected community (or as a collection of connected communities) or as a social network. Now this might be allready familiar to you guys but not for me, so I thought I'd share my highlight of today (as this is my highlight, you can imagine how badly my day sucks today). Anyway at the bottom of the wiki page there was an interesting part of tracking interconnections between blogs. It just a small piece of text. But it fascinated me (I'm sexually inactive for over a month now, hence the fascination). It will probably the highlight of my day tomorrow: learning about interconnections between blogs...

The Fact Checker

The purpose of this website, and an accompanying column in the Post, is to "truth squad" the national political debate in the period leading up to the 2008 presidential election. Our goal is to shed as much light as possible on controversial claims and counter-claims involving important national issues, such as the war in Iraq, immigration, health care, social issues, the economy, and the records of the various presidential candidates. When we come across a statement or claim that is at variance with the facts, as best we can establish them, we will point that out.
