'With Hunt rhymes Runt! No doubt he renamed him James Runt!!'

That rude newsreader. Tsk.

It's the "coughing fit", where I'm sure he is either imploding with shame or desperately resisting a massive laugh that gets me.

Fair play to the culture secretary who took it in his stride and with good humour.

The Mona Lisa is Leonardo Di Vinci in drag. The shroud of Turin also has Leonardo Di Vinci's face on it.

That's an easy one to collect, because the subject of The Arnolfini Wedding is so thoroughly canvassed in art history.
For those who are interested, a quick search gives you a good overview page for the Scavenger Hunt of little details that is included with this painting: http://employees.oneonta.edu/farbera...arnolfini.html

In answer to Fragony: you probably mean the little self portrait of the painter by way of reflection in the mirror on the wall. Also: “Johannes de eyck fiut hic” is written as signature, which is of course a classic.

It is funny but some of the reactions are just as whacked out.

"Oh!, it just is not an appropriate message for a child. At least not at Christmas time."

Well duh!

I don't think he did it to win friends and influence people...at least not in a positive manner.

Italian man shot in head sneezes out bullet and lives

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

An Italian man has astonished doctors by sneezing a bullet out through his nose after being shot in the head.
Darco Sangermano, 28, had been taken to hospital in Naples for emergency treatment after being hit by a stray bullet during New Year's Eve celebrations.

The bullet passed behind his right eye and lodged in his nostril, but miraculously did no serious damage.
He is expected to make a full recovery, doctors say.

Mr Sangermano had spent New Year's Eve with his girlfriend in Naples.
As the city sky exploded in a traditional celebration of fireworks, firecrackers - and the occasional high-spirited blast of firearms - he was wandering the streets when a stray .22 calibre bullet struck him on the side of the head, behind his right eye.

Bleeding heavily, he was rushed to hospital.
But while he was waiting for doctors he sneezed - and the bullet popped out of his right nostril.

Doctors say it had been slowed down when it hit his skull - which almost certainly saved his sight, as well as his life.
Mr Sangermano is expected to undergo laser surgery on his right eye's damaged retina.

Fox shoots hunter



A wounded fox shot its would be killer in Belarus by pulling the trigger on the hunter's gun as the pair scuffled after the man tried to finish the animal off with the butt of the rifle, media said Thursday.

The unnamed hunter, who had approached the fox after wounding it from a distance, was in hospital with a leg wound, while the fox made its escape, media said, citing prosecutors from the Grodno region.

"The animal fiercely resisted and in the struggle accidentally pulled the trigger with its paw," one prosecutor was quoted as saying.

Man killed by own cock.

Blade-enhanced battle-beast missing, presumed stolen
By Sarah Bee • Get more from this author

A Bengali man has reportedly suffered a gruesome demise after he pushed his metal-enhanced cock that bit too far.

Singrai Soren, a trainer of fighting roosters, was killed in Mohanpur in West Bengal after one of his birds apparently turned on him, the Daily Mail soberly relates.

According to a friend, Soren forced the cockerel - whose legs were tooled up with razor blades - back into the ring to fight as it repeatedly tried to get away.

"This upset it, and it attacked Soren," said the friend.

The man's throat was slit in the struggle. The whereabouts of the killer cock are unknown, but it is thought that another trainer has bagged it. The bird had won four fights prior to its deadly attack.

Police are looking for the black and red feathered beast.

A lesson for all, we can surely agree, who are too pushy with birds. All further puns, moral outrage etc to the usual address. ®

Let the puns begin!

Better than being killed by another man's cock...

Who Wants a Slice of Human Cheese?



DG: Where did you procure the milk and how expensive was it?

MS: I used two different sources. One woman lives here in New York, and she very kindly donated it to me – she has been overproducing, filling up her freezer, and was finding it painful to just throw it away. I purchased the milk from the another woman, and she shipped it to me in ice, from Wisconsin. I am working to make a delicious Wisconsin human cheddar. I found both the women on an online marketplace for breast milk – where women regularly arrange to sell and donate their milk. [...]

The culture that exists around making food with breast milk – women make bread, yogurt, ice cream, soup…you name it. I never expected it. Cheese is a bit more complicated, because of the unique properties of human milk. But it’s great to know that I’m not too off base with human cheese – in some ways, I’m just bringing a niche food product to the mainstream. Kind of like caviar.

Crazed Rabbit's Home State Ranked #1 for Bestiality (and now we know why the rabbits are so crazed)

The ranking comes via stats from Pet-Abuse.com, which lists four bestiality incidents in its stats on Washington (one more than Georgia and Florida, which each have three), but has an interactive map showing five incidents.

No example of Washington state animal buggery is more famous than Kenneth Pinyan and the "Enumclaw Horse Sex Case" of 2005.

Countless articles have been written about it, and a film was even made.

But in short, Pinyan was a Boeing engineer and Gig Harbor resident who got his kicks on the side by traveling up to a farm near Enumclaw and letting a horse named "Big Dick" fuck his brains out while a couple friends videotaped the action. Pinyan took his fetish too far one day when the horse perforated his colon, an injury that soon afterward killed him.

The case led to a new law in Washington, which specifically outlaws bestiality.

Next we have Michael Patrick McPhail, a 26-year-old from Spanaway, who was the first person charged under the post-Pinyan bestiality law. McPhail was caught by his wife having sex with a "squealing and crying" female pit-bull mix on the couple's porch and turned in to sheriff's deputies. He was later acquitted.

Reaching back even further, a 2004 incident involves five 12 and 13-year-olds who broke into a barn at White Swan High School and brutalized and sodomized several pigs with "canes, axes, knives, and hammers." The kids--being kids--ended up skating with light punishments after much of the evidence was cleaned up or tainted by parents and other locals.

Moving up to 2007, we have Mr. Arthur Lawton, a man who was charged with animal cruelty for having sex with a goat in a barn where he worked at Eatonville's Pioneer Farm Museum. He'd been caught mid-shag by a tour guide, though he later claimed he was only "trying to milk" the creature.

Then last year, Douglas Spink, a former cocaine runner and extreme sports enthusiast, was arrested for essentially running a bestiality resort for tourists near the Canada-Washington border.

After pleading guilty to letting a man visit his ranch and have sex with his dogs, he was sentenced to three years in federal prison.

And finally, there's Gary A. Veldhuizen of Ferndale--a lover of the online game FarmVille and an even bigger lover of goats. Real ones. Real ones that he has sex with.

Veldhuizen was caught doing the deed with a goat by a family member, and later sentenced to one month in jail by a Whatcom County judge.

So as you can see, Washington is steeped in man-on-beast history. Whether it's our defining shameful trademark seems a stretch. But it is what it is.
