Embarrassing David Hasselhoff Photos [pics]
Back in the 1980's, David Hasselhoff was cool incarnate. His acting role in the hugely successful NBC TV series Knight Rider made him an international mega star. After Knight Rider was cancelled, Hasselhoff cashed in his International appeal for a Top 40 music career in Europe. But Hoff wouldn't deprive his American fans for long. In the early 1990's Hasselhoff came back to primetime with another TV show for NBC called Baywatch.Recently Hasselhoff has lent his talents to Broadway for Jekyll & Hyde, sat in as a judge on the reality show America's Got Talent and even had a cameo role on the 2008 TV version of Knight Rider.
After such a high profile career spanning over 3 decades, Hasselhoff has partaken in many a cheesy photo shoot. In Hoff's defense, most of the embarrassing photos were taken during the 1980's or in Europe. But many of these photos are very questionable and a few are actually quite disturbing.

Terminator Karma Sutra [pics]
Fans of the the American TV series Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles, might have noticed that TV version of John Connor has a very different kind of relationship with Cameron, his cyborg protector, than the Arnoldbot from the movies. Cameron even puts on nail polish in John's bedroom while they share secrets (season 1, episode 8).Is there some human/robot love in John Connor's future? If he needs help sparking a robot romance, maybe he should try some Cszar's Terminator pornography. Cszar posed and photographed his T-800 robots having sex in various positions before sharing them on flickr.com.

Cszar's flickr album is titled "Make Love Not War." It's basically the Terminator Karma Sutra. His family must be proud.

Kid Trapped Inside Claw Machine [video]
Ever play one of those Lucky Dip or "claw" games before? It's a game of chance commonly found in arcades or family restaurants. You use a joystick to maneuver a claw into position and then drop it and hope the claw grabs a prize. As a child, you probably wished you could reach your hand inside the machine and grab the toy you wanted right? Well this Australian kid managed to not only slip his hand inside... but his entire body.When the kid dug his way to the surface of all the stuffed animals he must have been excited. But that joy obviously turned to horror we he realized he was trapped. As you can see from the video, the kid is obviously terrified. Here's a video of the claw incident from Australia's Channel 9 news.
In the video, the reporter says security staff had to "dismantle" the Lucky Dip to get the boy out. Actually that statement was a little over-hyped. To "dismantle" the machine, all the security staff did was use a key and open the glass window. After all, how do you think they put more prizes inside the Lucky Dip? Have a little boy crawl in with a sack of stuffed animals?.

Japanese Elephant Urinal Cleaner [video]
Say hello to Dasubee - The Japanese Elephant Urinal Cleaner. To use Dasubee, just turn him on and back him into a dirty urinal (or maybe it's dirty urinals that turn him on). Dasubee will start scrubbing away and clean up all those urine soaked cigarette butts and that porcelain rim of random pubic hair.Here's a video of Dasubee in action.
I can't decide if I should add this to my album of useless Japanese inventions or not.
So the next time you are near a urinal in Japan, throw a few peanuts inside and give Dasubee the urinal elephant a treat. Because animal faces and bright colors make cleaning piss fun! ;)

Raw Meat iPod Cover
A Japanese company called Solid Alliance is selling an Apple iPod cover that's designed to look like RAW MEAT. It comes in a cellophane-and-Styrofoam package just like meat does. We've reviewed plenty of iPod/iPhone cases before, but this one gets bonus points for originality. I wonder what my dog will think.
iPod... It's what's for dinner?

Fish with Human Teeth [pic]
This fish was caught in Lubbock, Texas in 2006.
It's not everyday that you see a fish with human looking teeth. In fact this fish probably could have used some braces.
Is this evolution at work? Very bizarre.

Crazy European Paitnings... on truck!
Here are 7 pictures Of (European) semi-trucks whose trailers are decorated to look like the sides are missing. The products they are hauling are painted on the sides and back.
The first one is of a bottle of beer which looks so real, like it's coming out the side of the trailer.

........ A canvas tote bag.

........... Pepsi cases stacked on the ceiling, and it looks like the bottom of the trailer is empty.

...........the windshield facing the back and a driver has been painted in the driver's seat looking over his shoulder to appear like he's driving backwards.

........ An aquarium with fish swimming in it.

........a bookshelf with books lined up and a post-it-note with an advertisement, probably for the company that sells the books.

............ The last one is for Pringles-Hot & Spicy. The 'inside' of the trailer appears as though it has been through a fire.

Croatian Smurfs Fail World Record Attempt
Last month, 395 Croatian men, women and children covered themselves in blue paint, dressed up as Smurfs and got ready to go down in history... as failures.The "Croatian Smurfs" had gathered in an attempt to smash the previous world record for "most Smurfs gathered together at one time."
Unfortunately due to a research error (possibly caused by Gargamel), their attempt was all in vain.
According to the latest, but out of date, Croatian printing of the Guiness World Records book, the record for most Smurfs gathered in one place was 291. With 395 Smurfs, the Croations thought they were sure to earn a new world record.However in 2007, a group of students at Warwick University beat them too it. The Warwick students had managed to round up a grand total of 451 Smurfs and according to Guiness, currently hold the world record.

They were close, but Croatians needed a little over 50 more Smurfs to beat the Warwick University record. Perhaps they should have contacted Guiness World Records before the attempt. I want to feel bad for them, but just seeing the the 2 words "Croatians" and "Smurfs" in the same sentence kind of freaks me out.
A somber spokesman for the Croatians had this to say: "We could easily have got more Smurfs, but we thought that over a hundred more than the American record... would be enough."
In case you've never heard of The Smurfs before, they are are a fictional group of small blue creatures who live somewhere in the woods. The Belgian cartoonist Peyo introduced Smurfs to the world in a 1958 Belgian magazine called Le Journal de Spirou. However, Smurfs are probably best known from the 1980s animated Hanna-Barbera Productions television series, The Smurfs (DVD).

Alcoholic Dog Gets Statue in San Diego
San Diego, California may be full of bums these days, but there is one bum long overdue for high honors – Bum, the 19th-century town dog.
Owned by no one, Bum used to hang out at downtown San Diego restaurants and bars, where he became an alcoholic, addicted to beer and whiskey. A Chinese resident, Ah Wo Sue, nursed him back to health, and, eventually, his likeness appeared on dog tags and licenses.
The county Board of Supervisors sent Bum to County Hospital when he was crippled with rheumatism, and at his death in 1898, he received a public funeral paid for by pennies of the children of San Diego. He was beloved by children, who liked to ride on his back.

Now, over 100-years later, The Gaslamp Quarter Historical Foundation and San Diego-Edinburgh Sister City Society are building a bronze statue of the St. Bernard-spaniel mix that will be displayed in the Gaslamp Quarter section of downtown San Diego.
KNSD, the NBC station in San Diego, did a news report on Bum and his new statue. You can watch a video of the report here [Source: KNSD Widget]

Framing Hanley have certainly come a long way in a very short time. First formed in 2005, the band posted demos of their songs on MySpace.com. Two years later thier debut LP, The Moment, was released August 2007. Not bad for a bunch of guys barely out of high school.

Our interview with Ryan was just like his lyrics, honest and articulate. Ryan was very forthcoming and spoke openly about everything from his break with No Knife to his freaky cats.
When it comes to so-called heavy metal supergroups, a lot of them usually don’t last long. But for New Orleans’ Down – made up of Ex-Pantera vocalist Phil Anselmo and bassist Rex Brown, Corrosion of Conformity guitarist Pepper Keenan, Crowbar guitarist Kirk Windstein, and Eyehategod drummer Jimmy Bower – there has been something special that has kept them unified for over 15 years.

problem with a fairly easy solution.
