IS THAT SATAN OR ONE OF THE MISSING TELETUBBIES?



Is it safe to laugh yet? Probably not, but some dipstick is actually posting pictures on the web of the image of Satan in the smoke plumes of the doomed World Trade Centres. Who knew Satan was such a cute little chubby fella?

WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS NOW, IS A THREE-DAY-LONG ORGY

Organizers from Brazil's Hedonist Club have been forced to move their three-day sex party to a secret location after police closed down the sauna club where the event was to take place. The 50-hour sex marathon in Rio de Janeiro was expected to attract 1,500 participants. (Ananova)


IF YOU OUTLAW ORGIES, ONLY OUTLAWS WILL HAVE ORGIES

Police in Spain report that five tourists who had been filming themselves having an orgy at a resort beach, were arrested, charged with exhibitionism, and thrown in the paddy wagon to be taken to the station. When they arrived, police opened the van door to discover the group had gone right back at it. "The women where 'pleasing' the men," reported one police officer. (Diario Informacion newspaper)


I'M GONNA BE THE HEALTHIEST OLD GUY ALIVE!

Medical staff and care givers at seniors homes in Denmark report that watching porn films and hiring prostitutes has far better effects on the health of old people than vitamins, medicines, and other drugs. Staff at several homes in Denmark have started screening weekly porn flicks and some residents enjoy regular visits from prostitutes. Lars Petersen, a spokesperson for care workers in Denmark, reports that pornography is "healthier, cheaper and easier to use than medicine." Another care worker states "it is time we show the elderly some respect and take their needs seriously, including the sexual ones." (Ananova)



IN CASE YOU WERE WONDERING

Okay, so before you ask why, exactly, I was at www.dolphinsex.org... well, it's my job, really. Here then, for purely educational reasons of course, are some tips on how to tell if a dolphin wants to have sex with you: "Males are probably the easiest to detect. They will swim around, sporting an erection (anywhere between 10 to 14 inches long for a Bottle-nose), and will have no bones about swimming up to you and placing their member within reach of your hand. If you are in the water, they may rub it along any part of your body, or wrap it around your wrist or ankle. Their belly will also be pinkish in colour, which also denotes sexual excitement. Females can be a little harder. The most obvious way a female dolphin has of displaying her sexual interest is the pink-belly effect. Their genitals become very pink and swollen, making the genital region very prominent. They may be restless, or they may be acting as normal. If you are out of the water, they may swim up to you and roll belly up, exposing themselves to you, coupled with pelvic thrusts. If you are in the water, they may press their genitals up against yours, nibble your fingers, nuzzle your crotch, or do pelvic thrusts against you."


CALLING ALL FROGS

Swarms of locusts have descended upon parts of western China, causing farmers to plead with Chinese residents to supply 5,000 snakes, 20,000 sparrows and 200,000 frogs to fight the nasty critters. The Xinhua news agency quotes Bi Fubin, who has meticulously calculated the number of locust eaters needed in order to avoid using pesticides, saying that 200,000 frogs could easily be supplied "if each restaurant in China kills one less frog every day."


DON'T QUIT WHILE YOU'RE AHEAD

A bank robber in Germany who thought he had lost the police during a 100+ mph chase outside of Munich was arrested while waiting for change at a road toll. (The Independent)


MAY YOU LIVE IN CURIOUS TIMES

What a total bummer. Turns out that my favourite Chinese curse - "May you live in interesting times" - isn't actually a curse at all, but was taken from the 1900 book The Wallet of Kai Lung. Two other curses follow: "May you come to the attention of those in high places" and "May the gods grant your prayers." (The Guardian)


MOST MUSIC IS ALREADY "GARBAGE NOISE"

Sony has unveiled its newest weapon in the battle against CD piracy. The Cactus Data Shield adds "garbage noise" and distortion to music that is copied on a CD-ROM burner, not only making the tunes unlistenable, but potentially ruining amplifiers and speakers during playback. (New Scientist)
