Wood Chips - What Amazing Talent!



Aug 20B photo Aug20B_zps8fb2062f.jpg
This man uses a tree from Russia (Red Cedar), takes wood chips, soaks them in water for many days. Then he starts building his pieces which takes him on average about 6 months, 10 hours a day, to finish it.
He was offered a lot on money for one piece but he wouldn't sell any. In his place I won't sell either because each piece he create is like a new born baby to him, not for sale. You can look at them and admire though.

Medium, Pig & George Clooney

Aug 20A photo Aug20A_zps7900629f.jpg
George Clooney is still longing for what had been the most stable and the longest lasting sentimental relationship of his life. It's not a woman, but his little pig Max, who had shared his life and home for 18 years. Max died in 2006, breaking his heart as no women had ever done before, or since.

The world famous actor and superstar constantly misses his companion so much that he had consulted a Medium, to find out how Max is in this other world. This consultation took place in Milan, where he was working in a publicity shoot, together with John Malkovich. It's very convenient for him as the shoot was near his home by the beautiful Lake Como.

It seems that Max was well (if one can be dead and well), and very happy having shared his time on earth with the star. So Clooney now can more concentrate his attention to the job in hand. He has an exclusive contract with a new brand of coffee, which obliges certain personal presentations; one of them brought him to Barcelona in 2009, for the inauguration of the brand new ultra luxury hotel in the centre of the city, the Mandarin Oriental, situated on the most prestigious Paseo de Gracia, 36, formerly the headquauters of the Bank Sabadell.

I can just imagine the publicists and promoters of any big name stars of film or pop, especially near the time of the première of a new film or the launching of a new album, asking the stars if they have any weird habits, past or present encounters of interests to supply, so that they can do their jobs serving the full purpose of drawing public attention, talks or gossips. For those rare celebrities who keep to the straight and narrow, no fear, these experts can always invent something.

4) Airplanes don't object to a preflight inspection.
5) Airplanes come with manuals to explain their operation.
6) Airplanes have strict weight and balance limitations.
7) Airplanes can be flown any time of the month.
8) Airplanes don't come with in-laws.
9) Airplanes don't care about how many other airplanes you've flown before.
10) Airplanes and pilots both arrive at the same time.
11) Airplanes don't mind if you look at other airplanes.

13) Airplanes expect to be tied down.
14) Airplanes don't comment on your piloting skills.
