Unusual Date (4 pics)

This comic story reminds me of a trailer to the new cartoon called Tangled. Imagine that you are going on a date, but your girlfriend isn’t exactly happy to see you. Go inside the post to see what happens after the long-haired princess meets her prince. It’s hilarious.

A Phone Booth in the Middle of Nowhere (14 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       23 Jul 2010       12013

This lonely paid phone booth was once working. It spent decades in the middle of nowhere, being left in the desert for some unknown reasons. It had its own number: (760) 733-9969. Campers who happened to find this phone located 8 miles from the nearest paved road used to answer the incoming calls from everywhere or make calls themselves.

Don’t try to call its number today though, because the National Park Service decided to rip the lonely phone booth out, that was reportedly set up in the 1960s to provide phone service to miners and other people. An independent film appeared in 2000 devoted to this phone booth. But the year 2000 was also its end, as this was the year it was finally removed.

When Afghanistan Had Hopes for the Future (23 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       23 Jul 2010       18685

British Defense Secretary Liam Fox called Afghanistan “a broken 13th-century country” when he visited it. His words drew fire on him. This happened not because he was wrong, but because he was way too blunt. Actually, Liam Fox wasn’t the first person to call Afghanistan a medieval country. There were people who labeled local inhabitants “barbarians with a 1200 A.D. mentality”. Many people really think that Afghanistan is an ungovernable land with chaos that would never make it out of the Middle Ages.

 

Still there were times when Afghanistan was a nice country where women could pursue careers in medicine, where people could go to the movies and work on the factories. This country used to produce many goods. It had a government that was able to undertake national infrastructure projects. People believed they had a future, but all their hopes were destroyed by 30 years of war.

I love it.

Fashion can be really weird sometimes. For example, Patrick Mohr thinks that his models don’t have to be sexual or good-looking. It is enough to just make them looking bald and add beard on their faces. This is what Mohr did for Berlin Fashion Week. It looks shocking.

I am so jealous of pilots and birds, as they can see such beauty every day, and I can’t. All these beautiful photographs were taken by George Steinmetz during his expeditions to different places around the world. He is well known for his exploration pictures of deserts, different cultures and mysteries. George has many awards for photography, and he is truly a genius photographer because he took these amazing and incredible pictures while piloting a motorized paraglider.

These submarine caves, also called vertical caves, located in the Bahamas are amazingly beautiful.

Too bad they are so dangerous to explore, because they would make perfect diving spots.

I would have loved to dive in these caves but I guess I’ll have to leave it to professional divers…

Actually, some “nuts” started practicing rock-boarding long time ago, back in the 1990s. This sport is called the hardest one. It requires skis or snowboards that are used to ski a lope of rocks. It is very dangerous and extreme to downhill the rubble slope in a straight line, but there are many riders who love rock-boarding and can’t live without it anymore.

The Google Earth satellite photos in this post are quite unusual. In the cities, the buildings look like they are leaning and in the country there is everything from crop circles to human figures. There are even people who put the strangest things on their roofs. They are unusual photos to say the least.

When lots of people tend to say that Avatar is nothing more than another Pocahontas, someone saw in the last Cameron’s movie lots of similarities with ‘Alien’.

Indeed, it seems those two movies have a lot in common, so let’s see in what they are the same.

The Days before Pearl Harbor (40 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       22 Jul 2010       11235

Many of the photos were all taken in the days before Pearl Harbor, during the great depression. It was a more innocent time when nearly half of all Americans still lived in small towns or on farms. Mothers still made all of their children’s clothes and color film wasn’t invented until the late 1930s. A very interesting glance at the history.
