The Devil’s in the Details

Fears for ‘dazed’ George

That’s erstwhile pop star George Michael (aka Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou), who was found in an interesting state:

The 42-year-old singer was arrested after police allegedly found cannabis and GHB - a Class C drug known as liquid ecstasy - in the vehicle.

Sex toys and masks were also found in the boot, according to reports in The Sun.

The paper quoted a witness as saying: “George was completely out of it - he was all over the place. He was found with his head slumped against the wheel. No one could rouse him. He was virtually unconscious. When the police came he could hardly speak.”

The former Wham! star was arrested on suspicion of being unfit to drive, but after being taken to a police station and examined by a doctor he was “de-arrested”.

So… um… in spite of finding an assortment of drugs in the car with him, he was only arrested for maybe being unfit to drive an auto? Really? And then a doctor’s examination reversed that arrest? Really?

Huh. (And yeah, nevermind that junk in the trunk, yo.)

Dead Monkey

Monkey throws baby into well in Orissa

As the shocked mother of the child raised an alarm after finding the monkey sitting near the well with the baby in its lap, the primate threw the baby into the well and disappeared, police said.

Oh, HELL naw!

Honestly, though, mamma made a mistake by getting all worked up and scaring the monkey. Everyone knows stealth is the most effective means of combating the Simianistas.

Why is ice slippery?

Well, the old pressure-melt theory (for ice skates, in particular) appears to be wrong.

Surprisingly, nobody is really sure why ice is so dang slick.

Ricky Gervais on Audible

Looks like season 2 of the Ricky Gervais Show will come to us via Audible and will actually cost some bucks (around $7 for “at least” four eps, it seems…).

As Da Kine puts it: “I have no problem with that, as it is the funniest thing in the history of Western civilization.”

Oh, in case any of you are biting your tongues, Miracle Ed already pointed out the phallic resemblance.

Please to bend down for the one called the greenman

Going back for extra shading after only a week doesn’t come highly recommended.
The bits that look redish-brown are actually just very angry flesh.
Here’s another shot.

Fish is on such a roll, I can’t wait to get my dagger tomorrow!
