The Salsa Hat! I fully advocate this sexy Spring look.
Make your own and impress your hungry friends…just watch their greedy little hands as they lunge towards your head with pointy tortilla chips:

Have a layover in the Singapore Airport and interested in sprucing up your toes? Why not head over to the spa and order up a specialty pedicure that unleashes 100′s of flesh-eating fish to chomp down on the dead skin? I know the phrase is often overused, but this would be a good time to simply say: W…T…F…?!?

I can’t write too much at the moment – I’m late for walking practice!

I have no idea how this model of M.C. Escher’s “Waterfall” actually works, and the more I try to figure it out, the closer my mind gets to exploding…so I think I’ll stop trying and just enjoy the video:

Pro surfer Mark Visser strapped on some LED’s and hit the Hawaiian waves at midnight. I would be terrified to try this myself – besides the fact I’ve never touched a surfboard in my life, Visser looks like one big tasty Blue Light Special for hungry sharks.

Impending apocalypse got ya down? Here’s a feel-good video to distract you from the quadrillion birds that are falling from the sky around the world lately. Apparently every night in Poole, England, 100,000 starling birds fill the air and create an incredible moving black cloud. Take THAT, 2012!

Yeah yeah yeah…bees are some of the most important insects in the animal kingdom, and without them our fragile ecosystem would most likely collapse disastrously. But you know what? I still hate them.
Unfortunately, nowadays when you pick up a can of ‘Raid’, you end up getting dirty looks from hippies and stinking up the joint. Instead, build a teeny-weeny catapult and get all ‘Three Stooges’ on their bee asses by throwing pies at them!

In 1969, the Army Corps of Engineers bet some drunk dude in a bar that they could stop Niagara Falls. The dude said, “Yeah right, Army Corps of Engineers, that’s impossible…if you can do that, I’ll buy you a beer”. The Army Corps of Engineers REALLY loved beer, so they hiked to upstate New York, worked their magic, and literally stopped the flow of water to the amazement of hundreds of cheering Honeymooning tourists.
OK, i lied. They actually did it to check for structural integrity and to clean up the area…also, no one really cheered them on. (My version of events is more interesting).
Here are a few photos of the Falls sans water:
And just in case you forgot the INSANE amount of water that usually flows in Niagara Falls:

Behold the world’s largest swimming pool (or if you’re a bratty kid, the world’s largest toilet), located at the San Alfonso del Mar in Santiago, Chile. It spans 60 acres (!), has a 115 ft deep end (!!), and holds 66 million gallons of water (!!!). Guests actually use kayaks to get from one end to the other. Wow.
