Yummy Wakame

The Enchanted Typewriter
“An antique typewriter found in the attic of an old house has experts baffled, because someone — or something — is using it to type messages from beyond the grave!”

Since yummy wakame gets so many hits from people looking for the world’s longest tongue - I’m hoping this one will satisfy you.

Fish Head on a Stick solves the missing sock mystery.

One of my favourite online games
ROCKET SNAILS!!!

Jane just has the best view from her office window!!!

How much does that suck! If Im expected to fritter my entire life away in a yellow-walled office with no aircon then I demand I at least get a view like that.. or a fishtank! I can then give fishy thousands of insanely boring jobs to do late at night and over weekends in return for cheap flakes. I will call it Stupid Monkey. Stupid Monkey will be promoted to Clever Monkey when he trains the snails to do his work for fish poop.

Mind your language!
“Ninety percent of languages are expected to disappear with the current generation.

Invasive languages are promoted by national governments as a unifying political force or for bureaucracy; or they are essential for work or economic activity, used in television, the radio or movies; or they are fashionable, especially among the young. In poor or remote communities, these newcomers work like an insidious virus, able to sicken the local language quickly and put it on its deathbed within two or three generations.

The present ‘killers’ of languages are English, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic, Swahili, Chinese and Indonesia/Malay,” according to a study written by Margit Waas for the US journal Applied Linguistics Forum.

The most authoritative database on languages - www.ethnologue.com - lists 6809 known languages that are spoken in the world today, of which 357 have fewer than 50 speakers.”

Here it is tuesday and Yummy Wakame is uncharacteristically quiet…I hope everyone is okay and just on Holiday or something, though you usually warn us….anyway, to justify my worrisome post, here is a big site full of Flash Games to play.

The Wife’s Top Tips

“I heard via b3ta that ice-cubes will get rid of those flattened under the furniture bits on carpets. Could this be true? I had to find out, and undertook this very dangerous experiment.”

Monkey Labour

Ever felt bad that the labourers who pick your tea leaves are under paid? Well now you can get tea hand picked by monkeys and yes we know they are going to be paid peanuts..

but hey thats what they eat anyway…

and if you’re more of a coffee man how about Weasel Coffee…

Trepanning is a village in Cornwall so isolated that it is located a short way from the outskirts of itself.

It does not appear on any official maps - except its own - and no roads lead in or out of the village. It is an independent village-state with a population of less than 1,500 and borders built from elliptical quantum formulae so twisted that they make immigration not only difficult but also perplexing and unaccountable.

Trepanning is the world centre of weird science and curious phenomena.

Wow!! People are still making new cartridges for the Atari 2600!

Fart-tax causes a stink
“A tax on farting, belching livestock to be introduced by New Zealand to help combat global warming is creating a stink among the country’s farmers.

Methane emissions created by grass-munching cows, sheep, deer and goats are believed to account for about half of New Zealand’s emissions of greenhouse gases. Now the country is attempting to clear the air by introducing a levy on pungent emissions by mid-2004.”

The hunt for the God particle
“One of the greatest prizes in modern physics - the confirmation or otherwise of a theoretical sub-atomic particle called the Higgs boson - is back up for grabs. In 2000, scientists at the CERN laboratory in Switzerland came, they believed, within a hair’s-breadth of spotting the Higgs before their atom-smasher had to be scrapped to make way for a more powerful machine, due to be finished in 2007.

If the Higgs is discovered, that would fill the gap in the Standard Model and comfortingly confirm our perception of what the Universe is and how it works.

But if it is proved that the Higgs does not exist, that would be a huge event. It would open the way for a whole range of alternative theories to replace the Standard Model — that, for instance, there are overlapping “parallel” Universes or higher dimensions.”

Clay animation and stop motion
“Welcome to the only web page devoted to people interested in the somewhat mysterious technique of clay animation.
There really are no secrets, there are just not many people who do clay animation for a living, and can tell how it is done.
On the following pages I will teach you what tools, clays, and techniques you need to know to create some wacky characters for animating, or just to have fun with. After all, that’s the most important part!”

I used to do stop-motion work in high school…wish I’d had this handy resource!

“My life! My soul! The springs of pleasure are wound to such a pitch that I cannot help but succumb to extacy!
You have carried me to a new-discover’d sphere of Venus, I am melted into a softness that can refuse you nothing!
Touch my vitals quickly, lest I die!“
