Gold Porsche stolen

Or that's at least how it was first reported.

This Porsche is the only gold one registered in Russia. The owner says its value is $600,000 and reported it stolen after a prospective buyer didn't return from a test drive...as if you wouldn't stick out like a sore thumb driving this thing home.

In actuality, the car is merely painted gold and not plated gold and is only worth $90,000. And it seems as though it wasn't stolen at all. The police report states only a dispute broke out between owner and prospective owner about the value of the Porsche and police were needed to resolve the issue.

I think the car was probably stolen but when the thief found out it was only painted gold and worth almost ten times less than he was told, he brought it back, angry, humiliated and ready for a fight. So whats worse...a thief or a liar?

The Zipper

An outfit every woman should have:

The Zipper is made of 120 separate zips that can be added, removed or partially undone to create endless possibilities.
It can be adapted to create anything from a belt or t-shirt to a full-length evening dress.
The neckline, dress length and sleeve length are all easily adjustable.
By removing zips from the middle of the outfit it can even become a two-piece mini skirt and crop-top.
It means women trying to reduce their spending during the recession can now can effectively get more than 100 outfits for the price of one.
The possibilities are increased further by partially unzipping parts of the dress to reveal bare skin or coloured clothing worn underneath.

Hope it isn't 'one zipper fits all'...I'll need the Large.

Broken Fingernails-at last

World's record holder breaks nails in car crash!

Ms Redmond of Salt Lake City, Utah, sustained serious but non-life-threatening injuries in the accident this week, the Deseret News reported.
She is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as having the longest fingernails in the world.
Ms Redmond's nails, which hadn't been cut since 1979, were broken in the crash. According to the Guinness Book of World Records website, her nails measured a total of more than 28 feet long in 2008, with the longest nail on her right thumb at 2 feet, 11 inches.
Salt Lake County Sheriff's Lt Don Hutson said Ms Redmond was freed from an SUV in the crash and taken to the hospital in a serious condition.

Better the nails than the neck....

Barbie turns 50

Forget the furore over Madonna turning 50, an even more imposing fashion icon is hitting the big five zero and she is doing so in serious style. Barbie, who (whisper it) must have had work done because she’s looking a little plastic, is about to be feted in a series of fashion celebrations.
Taking time out from her many demanding careers — astronaut, rap artist, Unicef ambassador, Marine Corps sergeant, air hostess, paediatrician, firewoman and politician – Babs will take centre stage at the first ever Barbie runway show at New York Fashion Week on Valentine’s Day.

And just think how much those original dolls would be worth today! I pierced my Barbie's ears and gave her a haircut but then again, she would only be about 40 years old. I think my babysitters had the original ones.

"look me in the eye...brow"

BLOOMFIELD, Ind. (AP) - A 72-year-old man with eyebrows so long he brushed them each morning raised $1,600 for charity from people who paid to take turns trimming his out-of-control brows.Some of the wiry hairs shorn from Si Burgher's shaggy eyebrows measured more than three inches long because the former jeweler's brows had never been trimmed.Burgher's eyebrows were so long he used to brush them before leaving the house. But he agreed to have the overgrown brows tamed last week by members of the Bloomfield Rotary Club to raise money for a polio eradication campaign.

I'm pretty sure I sat beside this guy on an airplane once.

Looks like the one has a little "moose" in it.

Thong bandits surrender

the latest from CNN crime files:

ARYADA, Colorado (AP) -- Police in a Colorado town say they've caught two "thong bandits" who used women's underwear to disguise themselves during a convenience store robbery.
Nineteen-year-old Joaquin Rico turned himself in Friday, two days after 24-year-old alleged accomplice Joseph R. Espinoza turned himself in.
A surveillance video released last week by police in Arvada, Colo., shows two unarmed men inside the convenience store. They stole an undisclosed amount of cash and cigarettes in the May 16 robbery.
One man wore a green thong and the other wore blue. Each thong barely covered the man's nose, mouth and chin and left the rest of his face exposed. One also wore a pink backpack in which he stuffed the stolen items

what a couple of butt heads!

Mothers: don't let your babies grow up to be body builders

This guy must have watched too many superhero cartoons...

And I'm worried about putting on a swim suit?

Can't he see below his chest to notice the hourglass legs?

And when my veins started to pop out like that, I had them removed.

If I saw this on a beach, I'd yell, "run for your lives!!!"

I wonder if his thighs chafe? And that flesh colored backpack?

What are people thinking?
