Let’s hope the snow storm is not going to stop us from flying to Orlando tomorrow afternoon. Fingers cross.
Why Fear Factor and Chinese don't mix
There never have been a Chinese contestant in Fear Factor (at least none that I know of).
1. Most Chinese women do not have large breast. Fear Factor seems to have a minimum breast size of D cup!
2. Most Chinese men are not morons, which most Fear Factor male contestants seem to be.
3. But most importantly the gruesome, nasty animal food challenge will not work for most Chinese!
Cow’s heart? Pig’s lung? Chicken feet? Cow’s intestines? Been there done that, got the t-shirt! A Chinese seeing those food will just think, “Yummy!”
Physics jokes
Being a physics graduate, the jokes inside the comments in this Slashdot post – So You Think Physics is Funny? and The best physics humour ever on PhysicsWeb definitely give me a chuckle.
This reminds me about a saying from my secondary/high school physics teacher (and I paraphrase):
“Physics experiments always work, just not the way you want them to sometimes.”
I hate journalism when…
they get the basic facts wrong! CNN/Money today has an article, Virgin to join the online music fray, where at the end of the article it is mentioned that Richard Branson had to sell his Virgin Music Group to EMI in ’92 to launch his airline.
Wrong! He sold Virgin Music Group to fund Virgin Atlantic, which was launched in ’84, so it won’t go under. Basic fact, my friends…
My geek life is getting more interesting…
Exciting (rumor) news from O’Grady’s PowerPage – Apple Developing Wireless Broadband Card. So with EDGE Everywhere, the promise of 3G is finally becoming reality. Only a few years late, but who’s counting?
