22nd Aug 2011 Tom Jones' s Concert In Spain
Tom Jones was here on Saturday night performing in Calellatg de Parafrugell Spain (30 minutes from my home in Roses), closing the Cap Roig Festival. He arrives with his acclaimed tour presenting his new album “Praise and Blame” (Island / Lost Highway / Universal), and new songs like Burning Hell (which opened the concert with only a guitar and drum as backing), Run On, and Strange Things. Critics and the public have been unanimous in their approval and admiration.
Throughout a career spanning 46 years, Tom Jones has had all type of hits and recognition, and was knighted by the Queen of England in 2006. This show spans different times and musical genres, and is a call to young and old alike, men and women, conventional and alternative. The 5 new songs included 'Never been to Spain', version of Three Dog Night.
Godfather of modern soul, Sir Tom has always been about the power of the song and the power of the voice. A living legend.

Memory Test ~
Three elderly men, Eddie, Jenkin and Martin men go to the doctor's for their memory test. It's a miracle they remembered the appointment! Anyway, the doctor begins by asking Eddie, "What is five times five?"
"191," is his reply.
"191," is his reply.
The doctor rolls his eyes and looks up at the ceiling, and says to Jenkin, "It's your turn. What is five times five?"
"Wednesday," replies Jenkin man.
"Wednesday," replies Jenkin man.
The doctor shakes his head sadly, then asks the third man, "Okay Martin it's your turn. What's five times five?"
"Twenty five," says Martin.
"Twenty five," says Martin.
"That's great!" says the doctor. "How did you get your answer?"
"Easy," says Martin, "just subtract 191 from Wednesday."
"Easy," says Martin, "just subtract 191 from Wednesday."

22nd Aug 2011 Picture News - Us-18 & Portable Island
Couldn't Be Any Closer!!
A mere 45 centimetres separate the 2 Hunter F-18 of the 'Blue Angels', of the Marine of the United States. They seem to be laughing at the law of physics, situating themselves to each other in plain flight. A hair raising daring exercise that puts the pilots in great danger. They must have been under nerve shattering tension considering the very elevated speed of the plane. The tiniest mistake would have been fatal.
The Portable Island
The Tropical Paradise Island is the world's most biggest and the most expensive yacht. Much more than that, it's really a portable island, with lake, beach, spa, waterfall, even a volcano from which, if one day something bursts out, it would not be lava but good dust. The yacht or ship or floating island measures 99 metres in length!
