I normally don't like videos by parents of their kids in 'bad' situations... but this one actually is kinda cute.

7 year old David has just been to the dentist for some serious oral surgery and the anesthesia medication is still affecting him.... so Dad filmed the result.

Tina Fey turned in a brilliant impersonation of Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin on SNL last night.

She not only just naturally looks like Palin but the voice Fey puts on is a dead ringer for mine!

The Secret's David Schirmer Again

noreply@blogger.com (Optional) — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 15:07:00 +0000

It has been more than a year since David Schirmer from "The Secret" made promises to pay back investors Australia's A Current Affair TV program.

In this update, David Schirmer's right hand man blows the whistle on his business operation. Warren Henningsen was interviewed by reporter Ben Fordham last night.

Read the background to the David Shirmer story here.

I also missed the previous Current Affair update on this story aired in March 2008. Not much really, just a confrontation in an expensive Surfer's paradise hotel. But here it is so you can be all caught up.

This video is shot by some guys in a car that are very amused by a motorcycle rider who is travelling along with no hands whilst sending an SMS text message.

But what is almost as funny is watching the car changing lanes and passing around these guys filming.

Dancing Kitty Cats

noreply@blogger.com (Optional) — Sun, 24 Aug 2008 16:38:00 +0000

You know how people often say "I'm a dog person" or "I'm a cat person"? Well I always thought I was one of the dog people without much interest in the "furry rats" called cats that some people love to keep as pets.

Well about 2 years ago my daughter got a kitten and now I'm all turned around on the subject and even kind of like the felines too.

All that is really just my pre-excuse for posting this next vid, and this comment... AINT THEY JUST TO DIE FOR CUTE! :)

The Facts are Stranger than Fiction

noreply@blogger.com (Optional) — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 11:52:00 +0000

South Korean scientists say they have created five cloned puppies from a Californian woman's pet pit bull terrier named Booger.

For the first time ever a pet dog has been cloned, for a $50,000 fee.

That's strange and unusual in itself, but that's just the start of a story that involves;

A former Miss Wyoming and a bizarre sex scandal
Incarceration (in fur handcuffs) and rape of a male Mormon missionary
Avoiding justice, stalking and threats
Escaping the country with false passports posing as deaf/mute mime artists
and more...

This Weeks Puppy Cloning Story

A cloned dog, a Mormon in mink-lined handcuffs and a tantalising mystery

At first it seemed a straightforward example of the oddball stories which emerge during the long, slow, news days of high summer.

A 'Californian woman' had paid £25,000 to a South Korean laboratory to have her dead pitbull terrier cloned, in the first transaction of its kind.

'Bernann McKinney' had saved tissue from the ear of her beloved 'Booger', which was frozen after the dog died, and then used as DNA source material to produce five pitbull pups.

So far, so silly season. (But as the eccentric Miss McKinney beamed joyfully from the world's television screens on Tuesday, vague bells began to ring.)

The face was familiar, albeit older and heavier. The surname was the same.

So was the alleged American, ex-beauty queen background and the unusual devotion to pitbull dogs.

Surely it wasn't? Could the new owner of the world's first commercially cloned pups be the same woman who had gone on the run from British justice 30 years ago, having been the star of one of the most bizarre, entertaining and downright saucy court cases in living memory?

In 1978, Joyce McKinney jumped bail and disappeared after being charged with kidnapping a 17-stone male Mormon missionary, whom she had chained to a Devon cottage bed with mink handcuffs and forced to have sex.

At the time, she famously said of her victim: 'I loved him so much that I would ski naked down Mount Everest with a carnation up my nose if he asked me to.'

Were these two blonde, American, dog-loving and, yes, quite possibly barking mad, Miss McKinneys one and the same person?

The Obama Song - Yes We Can

noreply@blogger.com (Optional) — Mon, 04 Feb 2008 17:13:00 +0000

A kind of "mash" of a Barack Obama speech and people singing the words...

What the author has to say about it:

February 02, 2008
I was sitting in my recording studio watching the debates...
Torn between the candidates
I was never really big on politics...
and actually I'm still not big on politics...
but 4 years ago, me and the black eyed peas supported Kerry...
And we supported Kerry with all our might...
We performed and performed and performed for the DNC...
doing all we could do to get the youth involved...

The outcome of the last 2 elections has saddened me...
on how unfair, backwards, upside down, unbalanced, untruthful,
corrupt, and just simply, how wrong the world and "politics" are...

So this year i wanted to get involved and do all i could early...

And i found myself torn...
because this time it's not that simple...
our choices aren't as clear as the last elections ...
last time it was so obvious...
Bush and war vs. no bush and no war...

But this time it's not that simple...
and there are a lot of people that are torn just like i am...
So for awhile I put it off and i was going to wait until it was decided for me...

And then came New Hampshire...
And i was captivated...
Inspired...

David Schirmer gives his side of the story regarding the Nov 13th TVNZ broadcast on his personal blog.

The Secret with David Schirmer: David Schirmer on ACA and Close Up ... again

Who knows where the truth lies here... somewhere in the middle most likely... it's definitely a little WEIRD the way things dont add up on either side yet though!

I think David should give up the TV interview gigs though... geez he does not look good when he is flustered and runs off and makes promises he has no intention of fulfulling to get out of there. :p

The Secret's David Schirmer - Part 4

noreply@blogger.com (Optional) — Sat, 17 Nov 2007 15:20:00 +0000

This is the latest chapter in The Secret's David Schirmer "con man" story.
(see background stories here)

After making some unfulfilled promises to Australian investigative reporter Ben Fordham on Channel Nine, Schirmer was planning an assault on New Zealand when he was also challenged about these broken promises by TVNZ's Robyn Janes.

David Schirmer also claimed he was donating profits to the Australian charity, Scope, but the charity allegedly knows nothing about it.

David Schirmer says these investigations on national television are good for his business, so Channel Nine's ACA say they are happy to keep them coming. (this saga is getting past weird now)

View the TVNZ Close Up video broadcast on 13th November 2007.
