Bad-ass Food Carving

Today I will explore the completeely refreshing topic of food sculpture. For those of you who do not know what food sculpture is, it is the sculpting of meat, fruits, vegetable, or bread, with the addition of certain props, into workd of art by using cuts, placement and manipulation. Otherwise known as bad-ass food carving. Here are some exaples from Wambie. There are many more on their site.

Wild and Weird

Today I am going to focus on two of my favorite sites. They are both from bloggers like myself. The first one is Dark Roasted Blend. This is a very popular blog with over 25,000 subscribers. My goal in this blog is to bring you, the reader, all of the weird and wonderful things on the net and this site has a huge collection. Today I am going to focus on the Weird section of the site. From wild weather to weird wearables, this site dsplays a myriad of unusual things.
"
The other blog that I am going to point you to is a little bit more "morbid". It is called Morbid Anatomy and its tag states "Surveying the Interstices of Art and Medicine, Death and Culture." Wonderful photos and in-depth information about the authors and subjects or the narratives will either have you rapt with attention or praying to the porcelain god. Either way, this site will catch your interest and the images will stay with you for a long while.

Quick Post

Really quick post today. I have found two weird sites for you enjoyment.
I know that at one time or the other we have all thought "I wonder what would happen if I put this in the microwave." From ketchup packets to gelatin cups, even a footbal have gone into the microwave over at Micromaniac. They even show you time lapse video for those people who do not want to wait.

The second location we will look at can be compared to sex. It can be fun alone, but even more enjoying with a group of friends. Let me welcome you to "Pick The Perp" The game is really simple. You are shown mug shots of five people. You are then given a crime that one of these people were convicted of such as Sexual Battery. Your job is to pick the person who you think committed the crime. The site keeps track of correct and incorrect guesses so you can try to achieve a high score. My best is 31/100 = 31%. I challenge you to do better.

Susan Boyle

Normally these posts are about humorous web sites, pictures, and the like. This evening I am going to do something different. It was my pleasure to watch a clip of Susan Boyle performing on Britains Got Talent. To say that this was amazing is an understatement. Such a beautiful voice coming from such an unexpected source. This rendition is what music should be. With all the popular "music" on the radio and tv lately, I am glad to see that someone still appreciates the fine art of song.
Due to technical difficulties, I am unable to embed this into my blog, but here is a link to a youtube video.

Stutter-Stepped

Good morning to all of my readers out there. I just wanted to let you know that, at least according to me (the only one who counts), this is humor appreciation week. That being said, I hope you enjoy today's selections. Funny Stuff!

The first site I will recommend today is called "How to tell if your cat is trying to kill you!" This site explains some of the strange things that your pet cat does। And tells you the ulterior motives behind those actions. This is one of the major reason that I do not have cats. The way that they stare, and then pretend to love on you.......सकारी!

Another site I like to peruse is Say No To Crack. this site is filled with comics, funny stories, and everything else that can possibly put a smile on your face. The >link that I am including in this blog is one of my favorite images. It turns the world of psychology and behavior on its head. If you have ever read of a guy named Pavlov, you will understand.

That is it for today. Do me a favor and try to smile at everyone you meet. The nice people will smile back and try to make friends. The bad ones will think you are psychotic and stay away from you.
