Monkey + Pigeon = Love
" They're an odd couple in every sense but a monkey and a pigeon have become inseparable at an animal sanctuary in China.
The 12-week-old macaque - who was abandoned by his mother - was close to death when it was rescued on Neilingding Island, in Goangdong Province.
After being taken to an animal hospital his health began to improve but he seemed spiritless - until he developed a friendship with a white pigeon."

random funnies
In honor of the US Open, I found this picture. :) Go Federer!
mmm I love my burritos! Spicy Chicken Burrito from Taco Bell is good.
Oh those silly people getting random Chinese character tattoos. Though the tattoo artist was pretty mean, it's pretty hilarious.
On a similar topic, The Onion had a pretty funny story titled "Chinese Factory Worker Can't Believe The Shit He Makes For Americans"

Paris Hilton Loses $60 Million Inheritance
"PARTY princess Paris Hilton is $60 million out of pocket after her billionaire grandfather - appalled by her jail term for drink-driving offences - axed her inheritance.
Family patriarch Barron Hilton was already embarrassed by his granddaughter's wild behaviour - notably when her home sex video was leaked on the internet.
But the 79-year-old considered her 23-day sentence last month the last straw.
"He was, and is, extremely embarrassed by how the Hilton name has been sullied by Paris," says Jerry Oppenheimer, who wrote a biography of the clan called House Of Hilton.
Hilton senior, the only member of the family left with a sizeable stake in the huge hotel chain, has let it be known that he intends to donate to charity the $2.4bn he will gain from this month's sale of the company to private equity firm Blackstone.
The money will go to the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, the charity set up in the name of the founder of the family business."

Guinness World Record: tallest horse and shortest horse
Some stats:
Radar, Tallest Living Horse, is 6feet 6inches tall. Radar is a Belgian draft horse.
Thumbelina, Smallest Living Horse, is 17.5 inches tall. Thumbelina is a miniature sorrel brown mare.
I want a mini horse! Has anyone see the MTV show 'Rob and Big'? They had an episode where they went to a miniature horse farm and bought one for their house. Yeah, it was pretty sweet.
great picture

Tallest Man and Shortest Man together!
Bao Xishun should play basketball...teammates could just launch the ball in the air since no one else can reach that high. He doesn't even have to jump or fully extend his arms to dunk!
As for He Pingping... he should, I have no idea. Think of something and let me know!

Dogs are truly a fashion accessory
There's always so much good stuff floating around the internet, I think I'll try and filter it to one video and one picture per day unless there is something really good.
I remember a while back where some person was 'walking' a dog by driving their van. Now we have the opposite. Lazy dog and exercising person. Dogs are just a fashion accessory eh?
How pampered does a dog need to be? I can't imagine it being too comfortable though...

129 MPH serve ... to the balls! OUCH!
Yahoo! Sports writes:
"Frenchman Marc Gicquel is dragged away by a doctor after he received a serve, travelling at 208 kilometres per hour, in the testicles during the fourth day of the Halle ATP tennis tournament, 14 June 2007 at the Gerry-Weber-Stadion in Halle, western Germany. Gicquel continued his second-round tie against German Benjamin Becker after treatment."
How did he get back up and win this match!?
Maybe because of some special treatment :)

VW Ad Gives You The Finger!
I was researching some car sites and saw this VW ad on the home page. The new Passat seems to be one of those 'push to start' cars and so you get to pick a finger to start the car. I chose the middle finger and voila, VW gave me the bird.
Unintentionally flips you off but it's funny! To see the ad in action, go to http://www.nadaguides.com/ and look for the sponsored showcase.
Note: If you have an adblocker installed, it probably won't show.
billboard reality
Guess they shouldn't have parked there! Pretty sweet billboard and idea. Too bad for those cars. I wonder why the car on the right is clean though...so you look and see the cars covered in paint?

The Answer is NOT always C
Dear Michael,
Every year I attempt to boost my students' final grades by giving them this relatively simple exam consisting of 100 True/False questions from only 3 chapters of material. For the past 20 years that I have taught Intro Communications 101 at this institution I have never once seen someone score below a 65 on this exam. Consequently, your score of a zero is the first in history and ultimately brought the entire class average down a whole 8 points.
There were two possible answer choices: A (True) and B (False). You chose C for all 100 questions in an obvious attempt to get lucky with a least a quarter of the answers. It's as if you didn't look at a single question. Unfortunately, this brings your final grade in this class to failing. See you next year!
May God have mercy on your soul.
Sincerely,
Professor William Turner
P.S. If all else fails, go with B from now on.
B is the new C
//geez, did this kid even read the prompt?
