I’m pissed off!  

If it wasn’t enough that in the March 31^st issue of the International Herald Tribune, a front page article declared: The Baton Passes to Asia, with a tag line of “It’s the end of the era of the white man.”

Followed by the April 1 front page article in the British rag The Independent declaring “USA 2008: The Great Depression” (no April Fool’s here folks).

Now comes reports that the first pen-spinning champion is Ryuki Omura, a 16-year-old Japanese high school student.

What, American’s have grown so damn fat they can not twirl a pen between their fingers?

Omura was among the 16 finalists chosen from 276 video entries to showcase his moves in Tokyo on Sunday in a contest organized by the Pen Spinning Association Japan.

A short video of Omura showing off his talents can be found here. (Warning site is in Japanese.  Click on picture to the left)

Have a nice day!

What is a man’s worst nightmare?

Zombie Strippers of course (Ouch! What gets bitten first is something I don’t want to imagine).

Worldwide sex goddess Jenna Jameson (Playmate of the Year 2004) and Nightmare on Elm Street ’s Robert Englund star in ‘Zombie Strippers’, written and directed by Jay Lee (‘The Slaughter’). Press Screenings in LA are April 2nd 2008 with limited opening in early May.

When a secret government agency lets out a deadly chemo virus causing the reanimation of the dead, the first place to get hit is Rhino’s, a hot underground strip club. As one of the strippers gets the virus, she turns into a supernatural, flesh-eating zombie stripper, making her the hit of the club.

Do the rest of the girls fight the temptation to be like the star stripper, even if there is no turning back?

Also featuring Roxy Saint (of the Goth band Roxy Saint and the Blackouts) and Ultimate Fighting Champion Tito Ortiz, ‘Zombie Strippers’ is a sexy, bloody, hilarious good time!

Unlike the ‘Dawn Of The Dead’ franchise and movies of its ilk, ‘Zombie Strippers’ mines humor more in the vein of the Brit horror comedy ‘Shaun Of The Dead’ as the proverbial envelope is stretched, split, eviscerated and eaten.

Rated - R for “strong violence and gore, sexuality/nudity and language.”
Running Time - 94 minutes.

Here’s the corny trailer: (are you ready for this?)

Sony’s victory in its battle with Toshiba and its (now obsolete) HD DVD format rival. can be attributed in part to the runaway popularity of the Blu-ray-equipped PlayStation 3 videogame console.

The system is going to become even more popular now that the console’s next system update will see Sony’s entertainment powerhouse equipped with a wealth of new features, including Blu-ray Disc Profile 2.0 — or BD-Live as it is also known.

Living in a tropical area, gecko’s are a very common sght.

My maid must spend more time cleaning gecko “kaka” from my walls than she does cleaning my laundry (only becasue I run around in the same pair of shorts for a week).

But now, the lonely gecko has made news TWICE in the span of that many days.
