…….I don’t know who did it….but I like you!…..what a great start for 2017….the police are investigating it as misdemeanor trespassing….Danny Fingood was an art student who altered the sign three times before his death in 2007….the first time he changed it to “Holywood” for Easter…. “Ollywood” in 1987 to protest the Iran-Contra hearings when Marine Lt. Col Oliver North sold arms to Iran….and then to “Oil War”…..to protest the Persian Gulf War.
MEET THE KINDHEARTED BUSINESSMAN WHO THROWS GRAND WEDDINGS FOR FATHERLESS INDIAN BRIDES…..Normally in India….the bride’s family is supposed to organize and pay for the wedding….but when a young woman’s father dies….most often the widowed mothers don’t have the means to marry their daughters….say hello to Indian real-estate tycoon Mahesh Savani….ever since 2008….he has organized weddings for over 700 fatherless brides….not only paying for the event.…he gives each one of his new “daughters”….a substantial dowry….gold, jewelry, furniture, home appliances….worth around 400,000 rupees ($5,900)….he steps in to play the role of the father and performs their “Kanyadaan”…..the traditional ritual of giving away the bride.
INDIAN WOMAN RETURNS HOME 40 YEARS AFTER BEING LAID TO REST…..And she scared the hell out of her daughters….they laid their 89-year-old mother to rest on the Ganges river….after she was bitten by a cobra….and that was back in 1972.…they took her to the village healer.…but she slipped into a coma….and they thought she was dead…..normally open-air cremation is practiced in India….but in the case of snake bites….some believe the sacred river can wash away the poison from the body and bring the person back to life….well guess what sisters…..it worked.
PAY AS YOU FLUSH – LANDLORD ALLEGEDLY INSTALLS COIN-OPERATED TOILET IN RENTED APARTMENT…..We’ll give this one to the Australians….the person renting the place asked if this was legal….since he has to pay the water bill for the apartment..…but he thinks….paying one dollar per crap….or pee….is a bit too much….he said it was a government incentive to save water..…but why does the landlord get to collect the money?….he also said,…. “The worse thing is not having any dollars or coins on hand when I have guest over.”……and yes people are trying to find out if this is “Fake News.”
JAPANESE MAN HASN’T SPOKEN TO HIS WIFE IN 20 YEARS, DESPITE LIVING IN THE SAME HOUSE…..I know no marriage is perfect….and yes sometimes spouses do give each other…..the silent treatment..…but damn!…..they even raised 3 kids together….I guess one day he pissed her off….and she told him to shut up….and he did….not really….their 18-year-old son appealed to a Japanese TV show to help fix the problem…..because he never heard his parents talk to each other….so Hokkaido TV set up a meeting in a park….while their children were listening from afar….the husband initiated the conversation…..he told his wife… “Somehow it’s been a while since we talked”…..no shit!….and then he went on to say… “You were so concerned about the kids, and I was kind of jealous and was sulking about it. You have endured a lot of hardship and I want you to know I’m grateful for everything.”
LOST BOB MARLEY TAPES RESTORED AFTER 40 YEARS IN A CELLAR….Thank you Lord…..finally there will be some good music on the market….there were13 reel-to-reel analogue tapes discovered in a cardboard box….in a run-down hotel in Kensal Rise, north-west London…that’s where Bob and the boys were staying during their European tours in the mid-1970’s….when they first found them they thought they were beyond repair due to serious water damage…..but after 12 months of working on them…..they did it…..they’re the original live recordings of concerts in London and Paris…..between 1974 and 1978.
SCIENTISTS HAVE DISCOVERED WHAT EXISTED BEFORE THE UNIVERSE…….I hope your coffee or tea is done….because you won’t believe these idjits……Nature Journal….a mag I put near the bottom of the list when it comes to…..whatever….just check out their article about water….anyway…..they applied the theories of the very small i.e. the world of quantum mechanics, to the entire universe-explained by general theory of relativity, and discovered the universe essentially goes through four different phases…..you with me?….it’s ok if you’re not…..because I don’t get this crap…..quantum+the entire universe….you want me to believe you know how large the universe is?…..you better be glad you have me to talk to about this…..instead of my mom…..anyway,….they go on to say… more importantly they discovered what came before the universe was…..another universe or more accurately……another “cosmological phase”….oh it gets better…..go ahead get a refill….go pee….I’ll wait………………………………………………………..now, these….I swear my mom would’ve fail them all in her class…..and a bunch of you know my mom…..anyway,…. “THEY” said….. The universe is expanding, and the expansion is speeding up, but the team believes that certain modifications motivated by quantum mechanics will ultimately halt the expansion and pull the whole lot back to a near infinite point – at which stage the universe will start to expand again…..I have to be honest…..I re-read this….more than six times…..and I’m giving you the right to bop me upside my head….but….the universe is expanding…..and they want to pull it back to an infinite point so the universe….which is expanding……will start to expand again?…..I have so many questions…..I don’t know where to…..ok,…..the universe is expanding…..and you have no clue as to what….its expanding into…..right?……now you want to slow it down to infinity…..and start the expansion into something else?….hold up….I have to twist one…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………ok, now….slowing expansion to infinity…..what was wrong with the original expansion of the universe?…….and now you want to slow it down to infinity…..and start again?…what do you think will happen?….and infinity……how do you slow down to infinity?……that’s impossible…..if you could…..infinity wouldn’t exist….hey, find the article….join the debate…..how can you measure a size you don’t know?
