Mystery of German exploding toads

Sounds like a spooky camp site story... the Mystery of German exploding toads. Proof that truth is stranger than fiction - or even science fiction in this case.

Too Patriotic

Someone else said it best when they asked... "Is there such a thing as too patriotic?" View this video and decide for yourself.

I like how it makes reference to not having authorized spoofs of it. I can't imagine that anyone watched it and wanted to spoof it. Highlights for me were the American flag wafting in as the ocean, the transformation into Mount Rushmore and the part with the bandana that looks like he's blowing his nose.

Heart's in the right place, but oh boy...

And the whole part about his pole vaulting and being a Star Trek trading card were pretty hilarious.

Best KISS Lyrics Ever

I accidentally found the Google group related to everything from the band KISS. I particulary like the thread about "great" KISS lyrics. Best excerpts:

"Stanley the parrot....just doesn't know which....way is down."

"I'm gonna dance all over [smitty's] face..."

And this CAN'T be a lyric:

"That what wesley cries when genie podgers his loose ass. "

At least some fans can admit the cheesiness that is KISS:

>but stuff like "she's a dancer, a romancer, i'm a carpricorn and she's a
>cancer", or "when i saw you comin' out of school that day....", make me
>cringe!

Oh lord, help us.

Scared of That!

Wow... this is pretty scary... a russian soldier doing the splits in full dress uniform. Not kidding. See picture #6.

Compulsive Cheese Eater

The Swedish Prime Minister Persson is seriously cheesy. He says that he eats when he is stressed and that he likes to eat plates of cheese ;):

"I stuff myself with cheese by the plateful with four or five pieces of different types at least once a day," he said in an interview.

"I am doing that right now," he told the Expressen newspaper.

"I eat when I am stressed," he told Expressen.

But he said that neither the cheese, which is known to give people nightmares, nor his low ratings were keeping him up at night.

There are Weird People on the Internet

I was going to say more, but I'm suddenly struck by the simplicity of the title. That's pretty much all I have to say.
