30th June 2012 The Squirrel Who Thinks He's A Cat

A baby squirrel has been adopted by a cat called Tita, and become best friends with her kitten. The unlikely pals cuddle up together with "mum" Tita in Envigado, near Medellin,
Colombia.

The two baby animals suckle on Tita's milk, scamper about the house and even share a cuddle from time to time.

The squirrel was rescued by Ruben Gaviria who found him injured in a local park. He has been nursing the little rodent back to health with the help of his feline companions.

30th June 2012 Tin Cars by A True Artist

People from Broken Hill will remember from their younger days this Icon of the City. He used to go to all the public functions...especially the picture theatres. And always carried a Sugar Bag to collect empty bottles and cans.


His name was Albert (Tapper) Torney Everyone thought he was a bit eccentric and kids would tease and hassle him. But it was discovered he was very talented and only sold the empty bottles and some of the cans.


After he died in 1998 (aged 86) His large collection of Model Cars he made from the Aluminum Cans was discovered. This goes to prove..."You Shouldn't Judge A Book by its Cover", or a Sculptor by his sugar bag.

Here are some of his collection of tin cars ---

30th June 2012 Dancing With Crutches (With Video)

The Canadian company of contemporary dance is presenting an unusual spectacle in El Mercat de Las Flors, Barcelona. What is unusual is the very special choreography, demonstrating the amazing flexibility & extreme limits a human body can achieve. The 10 dancers all dance with harnesses, walking sticks, canes, rods and crutches.

With music of Louis Dufort and Johann Sebastian, choreography and directed by Marie Chouniard, will be on for 3 days, as part of the Grec Festival of Barcelona.

This reminds me of another dance several years ago, one of the most unforgettable, the most beautiful and the most emotional performed by 2 Chinese dancers. You have to see to believe it. I am quite sure you will enjoy the video I put below.

30th June 2012 Maturity - Handled With Care

As I mature ...

* I've learned that whatever hits the fan will not be evenly distributed.

* I've learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is stalk them and hope they panic and give in.

* I've learned that one good turn gets most of the blankets.

* I've learned that no matter how much I care, some people are just jackasses.

* I've learned that it takes years to build up trust, and it only takes suspicion, not proof, to destroy it.

* I've learned that you shouldn't compare yourself to others -- they are more screwed up than you think.

* I've learned that depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.

* I've learned that it is not what you wear; it is how you take it off.

* I've learned that you can keep vomiting long after you think you're finished.

* I've learned to not sweat the petty things, and not pet the sweaty things.

* I've learned that ex's are like fungus, which keeps coming back.

* I've learned that we are responsible for what we do, unless we are celebrities.

* I've learned age is a very high price to pay for maturity.

* I've learned that artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.

* Finally, I've learned that I don't suffer from insanity - I enjoy it!
