Gladiator Returns!

panther460

Saturday was never complete until you had to cut your weekly dose of Baywatch to go to 7 oclock mass and rush back to watch Gladiators! An hour dedicated to seeing your average pen pushing joe compete in some silly styled games like the ‘Sphere of Death’ or at the end when they had to run up the ‘Travelator’.

Now it seems it’s due to make a comeback and Sky One are arranging for the bulging biceps to hit your screen soon enough!

Sky One is to bring back Saturday night favourite Gladiators hot on the heels of a successful relaunch in the US.

The digital satellite channel will take over Gladiators broadcasting duties from ITV, where the series was a hit for most of the 1990s.

Elisabeth Murdoch’s independent production company Shine will produce the show, which will be given a “21st century makeover” and will include “much more exciting and dangerous” contests.

They are in talks to bring back some of the oldies such as the scottish Referee famed for his ‘GLADDDIIAAATORRRSS RREEEADDDDY’ catch phrase. Ex Footballer Ian Wright is being linked to the presenters role and they are auditioning for both gladiators and contestants.

Gladiators was back in 1992! Can you believe that, it’s 16 years ago! There’s not too many times when i genuinely feel old, but i feel old now :(

What was that 118? Prison Sentence 118?

Telephone9

We’ve all been subjected to ‘hello 11811 Mourrrgrett speaking…’, and safe to say you wouldn’t go out of your way to ring them unless you were actually needed some sort of urgent medical treatment, or if you needed a chinese delivery in a very drunken haze. A middle aged man in Japan has been thrown in the clink for placing 10,000 calls (yes, 4 zeros!) to directory assistance. Why? Becuase he liked when the operators gave out to him!

“I would go into ecstasy when a lady scolded me,” he was quoted as saying by Jiji Press.

Telephone operators – who in Japan are almost always women – nicknamed him the “don’t-hang-up-man”.

His calls usually came late and sometimes exceeded 200 times a night, Jiji Press said.

Now there’s a man with dedication! I mean if this guy had sat down with a careers guidance person earlier he could’ve made it big in telecommunications! They certainly could do with someone like this over in UPC where they seem to be alergic to answering the god damn telephone!

Beaut.ie FABILIS competition!

beaut

The wonderful girls over on beaut.ie have a competition running and the prize is one hundre euro voucher for Peter Marks, now I’m not a huge fan of hair styling, I’m more of a fan of keeping what remaining hair i have on my head so I have entered purely on the basis that the other half will put it to use and will love me for it, get the picture.

So motor on over to their site and enter the competition, the question, well lets just say if they provided a log it would be easier than falling off it so wander over and take a look yourself!

Vend-a-Joint


Cans of coke, crisps, all manners of confectionery, condoms and now medical marijuana! What these all have in common is they are all distributed now in vending machines! All be it the weed is for *ahem* medical purposes only (currently) and is heavily guarded.

AVMs are 24/7 machines housed in standalone rooms, abutting two dispensaries and protected by round-the-clock security guards — like ATMs for people combating psychological withdrawal with a physical one. After cinching up your doctor’s consultation, hit an AVM location to get your prescription approved, fingerprint taken, and a prepaid credit card. . . .

They also plan to stock them with Viagra and Propecia so you’ll be horny with great hair and so fuckin’ stoned you won’t know what to do with yer permahorn other than go get some munchies…

Only in America…

Lynx Advert

Saw this advert on the box last night, very well put together. If anything is gonna make you want a hunk of Cadbury’s, it’s this!

February – International Moustache Month

It’s official! (it’s on the internet isn’t it?) February is the month of the moustache! Infact it’s the month that worships hair!

February is more than a diminutive month of love and deliberate race relations awareness. It is a month of hair.

The phenomenon is sweeping the globe. The idea is simple: grow your beard throughout February, then shave back to a glorious mustache for a gala beer party at the end of the month.

Right so there’s beer involved eh? I’m on board!

Well eh, I once grew a bit of fuzz on my face and it itched the shit out of me so for the better part I think i may sit this one out. Also i’m fair haired so it would only look like i was trying to grow a knacker tash! (my excuse so im sticking to it!)

The rules are simple, but you’re ordered to pay them strict heed! His and hers too! The more obvious one being…

3. Don’t shave.

February 1st begins your shaving exile. Enjoy the varying phases of facial hair growth. Marvel your coworkers. Take pride in the cheeky bald spots.

The F.A.Q’s are eh not the best but what questions would you need, the game is simple dammit!

I can’t really grow a very good mustache. Should I participate?

Yes! Of course! No one thinks they can grow a very good mustache … until they try. You’ll fall in love with your upper lip. And the ladies will swoon. It’s a proven scientific fact.

I thought only porn stars had mustaches … ?

You really suck at asking questions. And you clearly don’t get it. Move along!

Are you serious?

Are you?

So start your engines, have a nice moustache right in time for the blog awards!

Daddy Warbucks is well and truely dead!


Not a lot scares me on the t’internet these days but when i read about this actual case of real life fuck-up-ary it actually made me shudder!

A woman travels to New York with her young kids but falls ill and is admitted to hospital with pneumonia but her kids were not allowed stay at the hospital but instead, in fine American hospitality turfed into an orphanage!

Social workers took them to a municipal orphanage in downtown Manhattan, where they were separated, strip-searched and questioned before being kept under lock and key for the next 30 hours.

The two sisters were made to shower in front of security staff and told to fill out a two-page form with questions including: “Have you ever been the victim of rape?” and “Do you have homicidal tendencies?”

One question asked “are you in a street gang?” to which Gemma replied: “I’m a member of Appledore library.”

But wait, there’s more! The mother checks herself out of the hospital to locate the daughters and tracks them down (in her hospital pyjamas no less) and leaves the country and wait for it, is currently under investigation from the American authorities for child neglect!

Since returning home, Bray has received a letter from the US Administration for Children and Families, notifying her that, because the children were admitted to the orphanage, she is now “under investigation.”

If i was arsed i would burn an American flag in their honour…
