COMPILED NEWS





Pet hamsters banned in Vietnam

Hamsters are one of many items imported illegally because Vietnam has banned the sale and possession of hamsters, whose popularity has been soaring. That's sad, so many buddists bought them because it is the year of the Rat ! Maybe the government prefers real rats ??

Licence to lie for Italian women

Italy's highest appeal court has ruled that married Italian women who commit adultery are entitled to lie about it to protect their honour.
I am sure in this court were only innocent men. Since ages Italian women are
lieing protecting their honour. If they (the men) would only knew ! (hehehe)


Exposition dogs get hotel treatment
Competitors will be able to relax comfortably in their own beds
Budget hotel chain Travelodge has said it will make its own range of "pooch beds" available for dogs travelling with their owners to Crufts Exposition 2008. Very nice gesture of this hotel chain, but what about cats ??


Sudan man forced to 'marry' goat

A Sudanese man has been forced to take a goat as his "wife", after he was caught having sex with the animal by Mr Alifi the owner of the goat. He then called elders to decide how to deal with the case."They said I should not take him to the police, but rather let him pay a dowry for my goat because he used it as his wife," Mr Alifi told the newspaper. Nothing surprises me anymore. The only thing I am worried about is that I am also a goat in chinese astrologie ! Poor animals !



Singer Presley sues over article
Lisa Marie Presley is expecting her third child
Singer Lisa Marie Presley is suing the Daily Mail for libel over publishing an article alleging she is overweight. The 40-year-old daughter of Elvis Presley said the story, which was widely republished worldwide, forced her to confirm she is expecting a baby. Poor Lisa Marie, always compared to her fat father. But she really looks like him.

BELGIAN BEER


MANIC MONDAY LINK

This weeks word is CAN

Maybe you know that Belgium is the biggest beer producer in Europe.

There are approximately 125 breweries in the country, producing about 500 standard beers. When special one-off beers are included, the total number of brands of Belgian beer exceeds 1000.

Of course the special beers are not sold in cans but like wine in bottles. The most popular once are Jupiler, Stella-Artois, and Maes and you can buy them in cans or bottles.

About 100 km from Brussels in Lustin near Namur is a Beer museum.
18.000 bottles of Belgian beer and other items about Belgian beers, like glasses, posters etc are exposed here.

There you can try and buy more then 800 brands of beers and drink about 11 on tap.
The museum also exposes a book with more than 16.000 Belgian beer names and their breweries !

And to give you an idea you have the whole list of Belgian Beers here !



The Beer museum









And huge amount of bottles exposed !

FUN MONDAY



IT Guy the host of this week's Fun Monday said : "I need YOU (yes, the wonderful YOU!) to pick 5 memorable lines from 5 different movies (if you could tell us which character said it and to whom, would be a bonus)...and tell us to WHOM (who in the people in your life) you could have said those lines".

An impossible task for me I first thought ! I go to a movie maybe once a year I only know the top actors and probably not all of them and what is said in a movie I always forget anyway. But I found a solution !

You need something in your life ? Just ask GOOGLE !

And that's what I got :


Adam/Felicia: ‘Oh for goodness sakes, get down off that crucifix, someone needs the wood!'(The Adventures of Priscilla: Queen of the Desert)
I could say that to Mr. Gattino, just slightly change it to "Get down that crucifix, we need the wood for the open fire"




Ace Ventura: Pet Detective
If I'm not back in five minutes... wait longer! To my neighbor


Rupert Everett, My Best Friend's Wedding
Maybe there won't be marriage, maybe there won't be sex, but by God there'll be dancing! Me to Mr. Gattino

You know, you haven't stopped talking since I came here? You must have been vaccinated with a phonograph needle.' (Duck Soup) That is Mr. Gattino saying that to me.

Addams Family Values
Little Girl: ...and then Mommy kissed Daddy, and the angel told the stork, and the stork flew down from heaven, and put the diamond in the cabbage patch, and the diamond turned into a baby! To my son

Except "My best friend's wedding " I haven't seen any of these movies.
