OK, I'm a person who makes a bit of pocket money from writing a blog. I'm doing OK too, I now own 15 pockets. But as someone who makes a little bit of wedge from blogging it's always good to see a new middleman come on the scene. So the iHype.com Launch is very exciting. Without the middlemen the whole industry wouldn't happen. As a blogger I don't have time to find the companies who would be willing to pay me to hear what I think about their product or their site. And, as just one man... Read Full Story

All that glitters is not gold. How true. For example, silver. Or a wrapper from a Quality Street. Those are just two of the many things that can glitter and are not gold. And by the same measure all that involves pole dancing isn't sexy. Take a look at this... It's the latest YouTube hit, and it's a pole dancing granny. You look at it and think, "Eugh!", but in the back of your mind you know that after 9 pints, you'd still fancy a bit. Still, it was good to look at that clip. At... Read Full Story

In New York a new summer trend is being set at the Optional Clothing Diners club. It's naked dining. That's nothing new. I've been doing that for ages. Admittedly I've been doing it because that way it doesn't matter if you drop any food down you. The guy in charge, John Ordover, said: "We're just more comfortable nude. We're not out to shock or put on a public spectacle. We want only to do things that other people do in the way that we are most comfortable doing them." It makes sense... Read Full Story

A lot of the fun websites these days seem like they're aimed at men. There are loads of sites featuring hot looking ladies and the poker sites are quite male-orientated, so it's good that there's something for the ladies. At www.888ladies.com you can play bingo and get involved with the community (you see, already that's quite female, because as we all know men aren't sociable). And even the prizes are just what you women will love. There were VIP tickets to the hot Sex in the City film... Read Full Story

An Australian man has shot his best mate in buttocks while out hunting rats. Yeah, because putting poison down for his buttocks didn't work. Seriously, how rodent-like must her ass be to be confused with a rat? Unless in that area of Australia the rats look like bums. That would be great. You wouldn't mind an infestation if they looked like J-Lo bending over. There's something the rats elsewhere should think about. Read Full Story

Megan Fox, who was voted the Sexiest Woman In The World in FHM magazine, says her title "annoys" her. You'll miss it when it's gone Meggy. You spend a few years being fat and spotty and you'll soon wish it back. Being voted the Sexiest Woman In The World must be tough, but not as touch as being voted "The Second Sexiest Woman In The Northampton Branch Of Aldi", that would really smart. Meg says she hates getting raunchy on set after her "awkward" love scenes in upcoming movie Jennifer's... Read Full Story

There are strikes in the passport office this week. My word, they time it just right. They wait for the school holidays to start and then they pounce. But you can get round that problem by having a holiday in the UK. Yeah, that would stick it to them. So, I'm saying you should think about Isle of Wight Holidays. I've been there loads. It's great for a break away. The cliffs there are amazing, and it's so easy to get to from the mainland. You can have a relaxing ferry or a hovercraft... Read Full Story

Learning is always good. That's my big motto for life. But here's a warning - be careful who you tell. Getting IT training was the best thing I ever did on one level. It's something that I have always been interested in but till your do the training you feel there's more you could achieve, more you could get your hardware to do. So learning more about IT is great, and quite liberating. You know that you have a skill that could get you a job anywhere. You could enrol in one of the Cisco... Read Full Story
