Genius funny account of a guy who waited on Mick Jagger in a Seattle toy store:

One of the nice parts of the job was getting to meet the celebrities that shopped there. The biggest of those was Mick Jagger. It was during the Stones?

Klenginem: Germany’s Peculiar Klingon Rapper

From Kelnginem’s official website:

image Growing up on the Klingon starbase Morska, it was no problem for Klenginem - whose real name is Quvar muHwI’ valer - to receive the most different kinds of communication waves, among which also the terran rap-music.

As a communications officer, it was no problem for him to adapt the songs to the klingon music, and then he presented his first try to the warriors of the Dark Vengeance Fleet. To make his pseudonym, he used the name of a famous terran rap-singer, from the “Klingon Eminem” he got the name “Klenginem”.

Klenginem on why he doesn’t want you going to the police:

Next, the “Klenginem-Show” is only run as a hobby, just for fun and produces no financial advantages. The so called performances have only been on private events and parties among friends, and Klenginem did not get any money for what he did.

If anyone still disagrees with anything he or she finds on this website, please contact its administrator before going to police or lawyer. I think there is no problem that we cannot solve ourselves, because - like I said before - this is all just for fun, so there is no money available for legal fights.

Ever Dream This Man?

Apparently every night throughout the world hundreds of people dream about this guy’s face:

In January 2006 in New York, the patient of a well-known psychiatrist draws the face of a man that has been repeatedly appearing in her dreams. In more than one occasion that man has given her advice on her private life. The woman swears she has never met the man in her life.

That portrait lies forgotten on the psychiatrist’s desk for a few days until one day another patient recognizes that face and says that the man has often visited him in his dreams. He also claims he has never seen that man in his waking life.

The psychiatrist decides to send the portrait to some of his colleagues that have patients with recurrent dreams. Within a few months, four patients recognize the man as a frequent presence in their own dreams. All the patients refer to him as THIS MAN.

From January 2006 until today, at least 2000 people have claimed they have seen this man in their dreams, in many cities all over the world: Los Angeles, Berlin, Sao Paulo, Tehran, Beijing, Rome, Barcelona, Stockholm, Paris, New Dehli, Moskow etc.

 
Update: Methinks this is a viral marketing campaign.

A zoo in Gaza has found a novel way to get around Israeli restrictions on the importation of animals by partly dyeing two donkeys so they resemble zebras.

The owner of the Marah Land zoo in Gaza City said he had used masking tape and black hair dye, applied with a paint-brush, to disguise the white females.

Dye-job donkeys wow Gaza children
