Photographer at Grand Canyon

This is a case of a photographer photographing a photographer. The following photographs were taken by Hans van de Vorst at the Grand Canyon, in Arizona. The descriptions are Hans' own. The identity of the subject photographer is unknown.I was simply stunned seeing this guy standing on this solitary rock in the Grand Canyon. The canyon's depth is 2,700 feet where the photograph was taken. The rock on the right is the edge of the Grand Canyon where all the normal people stand behind the established guard rail! Watching this guy in sandals, with a camera and a tripod I asked myself three questions:
1. How did he get onto the island rock in the furst place?
2. Why not take the picture on that rock to the right, which is perfectly safe?
3. How is he going to get back?After the sun set behind the canyon's horizon
he packed his things and prepared himself for the jump. This took about 2 minutes for him to make the jump.


He has a camera, tripod and a plastic bag, all on his shoulder or in his left hand. Only his right hand is free to grab the rock. He landed low on his jump and his right foot sliped away as I took the last picture. He waited for a few seconds, threw his stuff on top of the rock, climbed up and walked away.





A Considerate Husband!

Last Saturday afternoon, I was sitting on my garden bench (a cracker day it was, too), drinking an icy cold beer and watching my wife mow the lawn.
Amanda from next door was so upset at this that she came over and shouted "You lazy lout! Sitting there drinking while your poor wife pushes that ancient lawn mower around! Get up off your butt, and give her a break!"

I thought "Gawd! Women!" and I took a slug from my can of beer, wiped the cold foam from my lips, lifted my darkened Ray Ban's, stared directly at this nosey neighbour, and told her in no uncertain terms to "mind her own business. My wife has a green thumb, and she really enjoys gardening".

After a few days I felt really bad so I went out and bought her a ride-on mower to show my sensitive side. I am so proud of the deal I got. I am also proud that my wife can now sit down while mowing the lawn. I have attached a picture.










New Exercise Routine

New exercise routine.
If you're over 40, you might want to take it easy at first, then do
it faster as you become more proficient. It may be too strenuous for
some .

Always consult your doctor before starting any exercise programme!

SCROLL DOWN… ...
















































NOW SCROLL UP.. .

That's enough for the first day. Great job.

Have a Champagne!!!!!!

Autosalon Adelaide Australia 2004 2005 2006

I have been busy lately, putting together a movie.
These are photos that I have taken during 2004 2005 2006 at Autosalon Adelaide.
Autosalon is an event/place where people show off their heavily / lightly modified car.
Personally, I love cars a lot, and I absolutely love modified cars.
If only I win the state lottery!!! oh yeah!!!!

Oh yeah and another thing. I have created a chatter box for anyone who wants to put in comments or say hi! I know! I know! it’s depressing where my daily visitor is not more than 10 hits (9 hits were clicked by myself), but “Just in case” if anyone wants to leave a message or comment. Anyone???????? HELLLLLOOOO~~!??? (my hits are so depressingly low!). I do accept hate comments too, just try to make it funny alright? Ha Ha!
Adios!!!!!!!

Aftermath of Expired Chips – Hospital!!

Guys, I don’t think I can blog for the next few days. I have been admitted to the hospital, and was diagnosed with category 2 food poisoning. I think it was from the expired chips that I have consumed couple days ago. Within a few hours of consuming the chips, I was vomiting, diarrhoea. Whatever stuff I put into my stomach, it would come out either from vomiting or diarrhoea. I have got to a point that I found myself fallen asleep sitting at the toilet bowl 3am in the morning.
Haha! I don’t think I can continue any further, Nar! The expired chips didn’t put me in hospital, if anything, the chips actually left me with sensation of satisfied, fulfilled my deepest desire which I have been longing for (It is that good!--- I am just exaggerating).
I thought the quality of the chips will somehow be different when it is 3 months over the best before date, but Nope! The chips taste no different, at least for some one like me who couldn’t differential the quality. While eating those chips, I looked at the date again, thinking it might be date of production. But once again it was a best before date.
Then it got me thinking!
Who would held liable for a person who consumed expired product and end up in hospital? Would it be the person who consumed or the manufacture? For the first time, I actually read every fine print on the packaging. What is the definition of “best before date”? Alright, the product is best before a certain date. Then how about after those printed date? It doesn’t say do not consume and, it certainly doesn’t say it’s poison after those date. All it says is “BEST BEFORE XX/XX/XX”. So after those best before date, is the product consumable? Quality be different? (in this case, I don’t think there was any difference in terms of quality) Fatal to consume? Consume at own risk??
I always hear people say: “if the food product is expired, throw them away”. My question is WHY? Say, if I have thrown away perfectly edible food, wouldn’t it be a waste? Oh oh….an idea actually popped into my mind..!
I think all product should have
e.g.
Best before date – 19th April 2007
Still edible before date – 19th October 2007
Consume at own risk after 19th October 2007

I reckon this is too good to be true.
That's why I think it's fake.
Doesn't roasting kebab set off a lot of smoke?


Farmer and the Pregnant Lady

A chicken farmer went to a local bar... sat next to a woman and ordered a glass of champagne.
The woman perks up and says,
"How about that? I just ordered a glass of champagne too!"
"What a coincidence," the farmer says,
"This is a special day for me, I'm celebrating."
"This is a special day for me too, I'm also celebrating!" says the woman.
"What a coincidence" says the man. As they clinked glasses the farmer asked, "What are you celebrating?" "My husband and I have been trying to have a child, and today my gynaecologist told me that I'm pregnant!"
"What a coincidence," says the man ... "I'm a chicken farmer and for years all my hens were infertile, but today they're finally laying fertilised eggs."
"That's great!" says the woman,
"How did your chickens become fertile?"
"I used a different cock," he replied.
The woman smiled and said, "What a coincidence"

To Eat or Not to Eat..!



I was faced with a big dilemma today. This was what happened:
I found the packet of chips I was searching for, for a while now. I always thought I bought it the other day at the supermarket, just didn’t end up finding it. It's Arnott's Tasty Thins Potato Chips with Seasoned Chicken flavour. Just looking at it makes you hungry, doesn't it?
It was misplaced together with my canned food, I normally put my chips in my junk food area. Initially I was happy that I found the missing chips, but when I turned at the back side of the packaging.
I found this
This packet of chips has expired on 19th January 2007, today's 17th April, that makes it expired for nearly 3 months.
Now the big dilemma: to eat or not to eat….that's the question to be answered.

Hehe! I've decided to consume the expired product. As if the chips going to make me sick (touch wood)! I'll let you guys know if I am ok or not.
Adios~~!

Vandalism

I've got this email a couple days ago.
The title of the email: "Vandalism at its best".
The person who did this got a lot of nerves.

Stolen Wheels

Witness Search

Good morning to you all!

This is a call for anyone who may have witnessed the following:

Yesterday, at about 14:00 all of my wheels were stolen and replaced with bricks during the period that I was out of the office having a coffee (from 10:00 to 16:00).

I am well behind in my work and now I have to waste my time with these stupidities and on top of it all I am probably going to be fired from my job!!!

If anyone of you, my dear friends, has seen anything, please let me know. I could even go as far as offering a reward to whoever helps me.

Anticipated thanks.



PS. Here is a photo taken at the scene of the crime (theft with irritating consequences).

Once again, thanks and good morning to you all.

He lied about his age

Bob, a 70-year-old, extremely wealthy widower, shows up at the Country Club with a breathtakingly beautiful and very sexy 25 year- old blonde who knocks
everyone's socks off with her youthful sex appeal and charm.

She hangs onto Bob's arm and listens intently to his every word. His buddies
at the club are all aghast. At the very first chance, they corner him and ask,

"Bob, how did you get the trophy girlfriend?"

Bob replies, "Girlfriend? She's my wife!"

They're amazed, but continue to ask. "So, how did you persuade her to marry you?"




"I lied about my age", Bob replies.
"What, did you tell her you were only
50?"
Bob smiles and says, "No, I told her I
was 90."
