Mr. Floatie a giant turd running for mayor of Victoria, British Columbia flushed dropped out of the running today after being threatened with a lawsuit by the City of Victoria.
“What the city’s trying to do by keeping me off the ballot is avoid talking about the sewage problem,” says Mr. Floatie, who represents People Opposed to Outfall Pollution, or POOP. “But you know what? I’m not going away until they build us a plant. So, let’s get off the pot and do it.”
A senior government source today revealed that birds in Ontario and Quebec have been found carrying the H5 Flu virus.
It is not yet clear if the birds have the deadly H5N1 virus.
A global pandemic has not broken out, but health experts warn one is inevitable, noting the deadly H5N1 strain, that led to the deaths of 140 million birds and more than 60 people since 2003, might mutate into one passed easily among humans.
The anti avian flu drug of choice is Tamiflu by Roche of Switzerland, Roche holds the patent on Tamiflu and has said it may license the drug to other select manufacturers as it cannot keep up with demand. Roche is set to become the worlds largest drug pimp maker because its Tamiflu product is now the most sought after medicine world wide.
Some pinhead just shelled out $100K for a virtual space station.
Buying and selling virtual goods is not new and some items have been sold for a ridiculous amount of money but this just takes the cake!
I wonder if they sell insurance for virtual space stations? This dude better pray that the servers hard drives are backed up or else his $100K will evaporate into cyberspace one day.
Need I say more?
Our Insurance company insisted I put a railing on my deck before someone plummets to their death. So I went to home depot and dropped a wad on lumber and went to work over the weekend. The railing turned out better than expected and it makes a great support for Tabatha’s bird feeders!
In an effort to improve overtaking in F1 the formula one commission today proposed some interesting technical changes.
Slick tires would make a comeback and the rear tire width would be increased to improve mechanical grip, the rear wing would be split into two smaller sections each covering a rear wheel to reduce dirty air behind the car and make it possible to follow closely without loose front-end grip.
The smaller rear wing(s) will have one negative effect, it will reduce valuable sponsorship space on the car but it may be well worth it.
I that hope the teams will come to an agreement and accept these changes as F1 needs to improve overtaking.
Go Max, go!
Engineers at Renault celebrated winning the 2005 F1 Championship by strapping a 900+ HP F1 engine to a dyno and making it sing “We are the Champions” by Queen.
