July 04 Car of the future?Massively outstripping the Sinclair C5 for automobile weirdness is this new eco-friendly contraption, masterminded by American Greg Zanis and his sons, Chris and Greg. They're hoping to sell this Toblerone-on-wheels for a healthy $24,000, which sounds like good business - until you find out it cost $60,000 to build in the first place...
June 25 Robocop-offInternet dating. It works for some, but personally I'd rather cry myself to sleep every night to an eternal soundtrack of Beck's 'Loser' than take the cyber love plunge. Thank heavens then for Japanese games giant SEGA, who's just invented the E.M.A. (Eternal, Maiden, Actualization), a robotic girlfriend that can be programmed to kiss on command, perform dances for you and even happily discuss the complexities of the offside rule. Ok, maybe not the last one. Anyway, in celebration of this loner-friendly contraption - along with some other robots that also didn't really need inventing - here's the Top Five Coolest Robots In The World, Ever (not including Johnny 5):
June 18 Rott'n rollMusic award ceremonies never feel complete without a bit of scandal or bad behaviour. Jarvis flashing his bum to Jacko at the Brits still probably topping the lot. At last night's Mojo Awards, clapped out punk rocker Johnny Rotten carried on the tradition, unpleasantly mouthing off like it's 1977...
Come on Johnny you're 52, you can't really still be angry, surely?
June 13 Is there life on Mars?Those of you who, along with Robbie Williams, are fascinated by UFOs will no doubt be counting the days to the forthcoming X-Files film, entitled 'I Want To Believe'. Now, I want to believe in aliens, I really do. Indeed there's nothing more I'd like, particularly when travelling on my way home through East Croydon, than to be whisked away by a flying saucer to more pleasant pastures. But this seriously iffy 'footage' does nothing to increase my hopes...
But maybe I'm just being cynical. What do you all reckon? Genuine or fake?
June 05 Hair to the throneUnless you're one of life's lucky ones, growing older generally leads to the sad migration of hair from the top of one's head to previously untainted areas such as the nose and ears, where, upon arrival, it serves no function other than to cause mild humiliation. Still, mustn't grumble. No matter how bad thing get, unwanted hair growth will probably never be as big an issue as it is for Chinese musician 'Wool Boy', who declares he's hairiest man alive with a staggering 96.5% bodily coverage...
He's an impressively furry fella, sure, but a comparative baldy when up against 98% carpet-chops Larry, who surely must take the honourable title as The Hairiest Man In The World...
Whereas Wool Boy clearly enjoys the limelight, even claiming people like him primarily for his music (which frankly must be pretty special if it's to outdo his facial furniture), Larry comes across more reflective, wishing to leave his circus days behind and live a normal life. Ultimately though both seem proud of their appearance. Good on them. Big beards are cool, just ask ZZ Top.
