The ultimate celebrity fragrances comeback
Walk past any pharmacy or the cosmetic section of any department store and you will be inundated. As if we can’t get enough of Shitney Spears and Gwen Stefani in the general zeitgeist, we need to apparently smell like them. Everyone from Ewan McGregor to Kylie Minogue now has their own fragrance – yours for [...]

I stumbled upon his celebrity guitars web site the other day and have been reading through his ‘celebrity [...]

Tommy Chong’s pimped Prius
Well if you don’t know who Tommy Chong of the legendary comedy duo Cheech and Chong is, good luck to you. You suck. Much like the Toyota Prius does. And people apparently agree with me. Not only is the Prius recently announced the seventh least stolen car in the US of 2008, it looks like [...]

Ace Frehley unreleased album
OK so I was a Kiss fan, there you go. Before Gene made sweet love to his first dollar, they did write some OK tunes – and about ten thousand shit ones. Anyway, I’ve found this podcast the Classic Metal Show (CMS). And lo and behold, they claim they’ve found an unreleased Ace Frehley solo [...]

Paul Stanley Backwards
This just proves how far some people will go to prove a point. This bloke reckons that the Kiss song ‘Heaven’s on Fire’ contains a backwards message. “Paint the Sky” backwards is apparently “I suck dick”.
You judge for yourself. I just like the tag line, “There you have it folks. Paul Stanley is gay without [...]

Yet another email will scam
Well somehow this message got around Hotmail’s spam filter. Perhaps because every message was sent from a different email address! The first one was from an address at Missisipi University from a guy called Jakel Marshall. The picture (left) and accompanying link claim he’s a model, but he’s also a model rip off merchant IF [...]

Are Australians wine snobs?
In a recent press Johannesburg press conference, Jeremy Clarkson was asked what he thought about South African wine. His comment, ‘well it’s better than Australian wine’. Given that the poms love to go Aussie bashing, it was to be expected. But it got me thinking, has the average Aussie tried a South African wine? [...]

Lions reprezent in Cambodia wrestling
Er, this is so weird I had to check for the obligatory April Fools, but it’s dated May 2005! The Cambodian Midget Fighting League (all 42 of them) apparently decided to take on a lion in some sort of cage match.
The fight was slated when an angry fan contested Yang Sihamoni, [...]
