Viva La Vulva!

2007-12-27T17:50:00.001+13:00

Readers might remember a posting earlier this year titled "A glorious expression of a woman?" about The Wondrous Vulva Puppet. Well, as an update to that post I've found yet another versute vulviform simply called, "The Velvet Vulva".To call these Velvet Vulvae, or "Velvet V" versatile is an vast understatement. Quoting directly from the official site: "More than a sumptuous Renaissance bag, the

Next time you find yourself without a ready response to the social tropes of some post-modern cocktail party or obscure Electroclash album release media junket - Drop this word in somewhere Gestalt, (noun, pronounced 'Geshtalt') A physical, biological, psychological, or symbolic configuration or pattern of elements so unified as a whole that its properties cannot be derived from a simple

How many Bears?

2007-10-30T19:20:00.000+13:00

Here's something a few of you may be surprised by.How many bears in my photograph? That's the question I am putting to you.If you think is the answer is simply10, try looking closer and count again. If you still come up with ten it's probably because you don't yet know about a secret 11th bear hiding but in plain sight.Where is this hidden bear? Can you see it? Don't worry if you can't, because

Finally, a product that does what it says it does.

I was cleaning the oven top the other day with a product called "Shotz Cream" when I noticed something curious on the elements.Maybe it's just me but what does this look like to you?

A Horse Is A Horse.. Helen Clark on Bebo?

2007-08-18T18:38:00.000+12:00

It seems that Helen Clark, our New Zealand Prime Minister and one of the most powerful women in World Politics (tipped to be a future Secretary-General of the United Nations) is on bebo.Now I'm not saying Helen looks like a horse or anything (even though she has taken us Maori for a ride) but I bet if someone strapped a horn to her forehead she'd bear an uncanny resemblance to a constipated

Earth Turds.

2007-08-04T18:05:00.002+12:00

Long ago I came to accept that I am inflicted with an inquisitive weka nature(pdf); meaning I am attracted to bright shiny objects and easily captivated by the trappings of flashy marketing gimmicks. Naturally, possessing such a predilection is in parts both a blessing and a curse.As an example: My 'My Little Cthulhu Vinyl Figure' above epitomises a shining moment or taste of the blessing,

Perhaps something was lost in translation but I just couldn't resist adding this hilarious jewel to my shopping basket while in the Grocery|Spice Shop 'Moshims' located on Wilson Street in Newtown.It's probably a good time to mention to anyone not familiar that Moshims' complete absence of good customer service is redeemed by their vast exotic variety.*To the owners of Moshims: while I will

2007-07-17T18:01:00.000+12:00

Oh the memories. If I was still a rowdy up-to-no-goodnik, I'd soo be tilting a 40 and pwning a mad blunt for this old skool classic!And, after decades of being shelved away in my subconscious I've found him ... the clumsy baker who falls down the stairs with all the deserts, makes his appearance right at the end of this clip - (voiced over by the man Jim Henson himself).

Kevin Rose's (founder of social-bookmarking site Digg) newest exciting app 'Pownce' launched today and guess which friendly neighbourhood Māori managed to acquire some brand spanking new invitations?So what's Pownce?It's a way to send 'stuff' (messages, files, links, and events) to your friends. You can share your stuff with all of them, just a few of them, or even just one person - really fast

The future will have no 'OFF' switches ...

2007-06-27T19:57:00.003+12:00

There is little doubt left in my mind that in the future, we will be surrounded by an ever increasing number of 'ON' switches and a complete absence of 'OFF' switches.That's right. No 'OFF' switches whatsoever. In fact, I think the very notion of 'not being on' will eventually become alien to the human condition and quietly fade into obsolescence, while simultaneously giving rise to a deeper more

Ebony & Ivory?

2007-06-25T16:45:00.001+12:00

I'm not exactly sure why I've been holding on to these pictures for so long. I rediscovered them yesterday while cleaning up some folders and thought what a great contrast of imagery, I might as well share them with any audience who may not have viewed them before I dump them forever.The first photograph here has a detailed well documented history, but to cut a long story short - it was snapped

A glorious expression of a woman?

2007-06-22T09:25:00.001+12:00

Crikey! Is that an albino Walrus?How has something like this managed to escape my attention for so long? Until a few moments ago, I knew nothing about these handmade ' Wondrous Vulva Puppets'. I think they're magnificent and suddenly feel an overriding compulsion to acquire several. Actually I'm kidding. They're not cheap. Being priced somewhere between $US400-$US600 a pop, you can excuse the

Sheesh, over the last 72 hours I've been pounding out the uber geek 2.0. Constant template upgrades, creating an Eru's LifeCache widgetbox blidget, RSS feeds, Twttering and joining the wonderful MyBlogLog community - to name a few.That being said, I just had to step my nerd stats up even more by removing the circuit sheet from an otherwise perfectly operational gifted keyboard - Just so I could

Something for the lil' General's war room perhaps?

2007-06-18T20:10:00.000+12:00

What can I say? Like rubbernecking some horrible car crash, I'm ashamed and yet strangely fascinated by these highly intricate but garish Afghan 'War Rug' designs.

After a long uphill struggle, I've decided to embrace inevitable change and give up my coveted '3 column Minima black' template for good. Right now I'm shopping around for a fresh new look which for now at least, I think I've found in this Wordpress inspired theme. Expect to see more overhauling if you stop by through the week while I attempt to feel out an easy to customise WYSIWYG template

Nothing sums up the decadent years of the 1980's more for me than those XL large type "Choose Life" Wham T-shirts (or those Frankie Goes to Hollywood "Relax Don't Do it" XL tees too for that matter) and this video - Duran Duran's "Girls on Film" 6:25 mins - The uncensored version. NSFW.Quite the lengthy intro for back in the day at 1:39, it's still one of my all time favourite tunes - Weren't

How to make an Army men bowl

2007-05-31T21:02:00.000+12:00

Way back in July of 2006 I posted about "How to make a hipster record bowl". Well after looking around for ideas and better tutorials I've decided it's time to post my new closely guarded secret of "How to make an Army men bowl".Firstly recruitment. You may be lucky enough to have a large platoon of vintage Army men collecting dust somewhere, which is great because it is my belief that they just

Your ticket to getting Lost.

2007-05-30T18:19:00.000+12:00

Not to be confused with the television series or spin off game - Lost is a great creative idea for an invite only game currently blurring the boundary between the Internet and the real world.The objective of Lost is simple enough: Get one point before your timer runs out or you are eliminated. Each time you gain a point your timer resets - if it reaches zero, you're out!I wont go into explaining

I love specialty Asian grocers.Here are two items I recently discovered during a recent Saturday amble through the highly interesting and equally well priced aisles of the Asian grocer across from Pak'n'Save in Kilbirnie. Certainly well worth checking out if you ever find yourself out that way. Naturally, I'm holding onto the "Bird's nest drink with flavoured artificial white fungus" for a

It's not rocket surgery ...

Well obviously a considerable length of time has elapsed since I have been able to post any new updates to the blog - but to any of you who know me - All those allegations were proven to be 100% unfounded and may I also mention that the old adage "No body no crime" still applies in almost 60% of New Zealand criminal law cases resulting in an acquittal ...And so with my new found freedom, let me

I dream of Kiwi.

2006-11-14T20:36:00.000+13:00

Lately I've been feeling in tune with our national bird's shy yet complex nature. I've been nocturnal, elusive and somewhat reclusive while scurrying in the dark and keeping to myself.So seeing as this little Kiwi finally feels the conditions are safe enough to poke a beak out and emerge from my otherwise safe and warm confines, here are two clips for all Kiwi both home and away. One that will

Cheesy Nuts.

This evening while I was making a quick salad with rocket, baby spinach and feta cheese, Sue happened to notice something that puzzled us both listed on the feta cheese label."May contain trace elements of nuts".From Strange LabelWhy is that? Are they feeding the cows nuts, or is it simply because once a month they shut down the cheese factory and make peanut butter? I don't know, but maybe
