Believe it or not… My Father -in- Law can do something like this. He does it with spoons…. My wife does not have this “gift”… We’ve never checked the kids.
Liew Thow Lin, a 70-year-old retired contractor in Malaysia, made news for pulling a car twenty meters along a level surface by means of an iron chain hooked to an iron plate on his midriff. He says that he discovered he had the amazing ability to make objects stick “magnetically” to his skin, and now he’s added car-pulling to his repertoire. After reading an article about a family in Taiwan who possessed such power, he says he took several iron objects and put them on his abdomen, and to his surprise, all the objects including an iron, stuck on his skin and didn’t fall down. Since this “gift” is also present in three of his sons and two grandchildren, he figures it’s hereditary.
My own personal MILF did not look kindly on my enthusiasm for this post after I explained what a MILF is... Funny that she doesn’t mind my classifying her as one though!
She seems to think that men are going to book these flights with some sort of ulterior motive… And of course the airline claims they had no idea that M.I.L.F. meant anything other than Many Islands Low Fare. (wink, wink)
Loy Krathong is the holiday when you can let go of your resentments, bad luck and worries by floating them down the river. It’s also a time to see beautiful ladies by the thousands decked out in gold and silk . It’s a time of celebration and goodwill that everyone should experience at least once in life.
From Wikipedia Loi Kratong, is a festival celebrated annually throughout Thailand. It is held on the full moon of the 12th month in the traditional Thai lunar calendar, in the western calendar this usually falls into November.
“Loi” means “to float”. “Krathong” is a raft about a handspan in diameter traditionally made from a section of banana tree trunk (although modern-day versions use specially made bread ‘flowers’ and may use styrofoam), decorated with elaborately-folded banana leaves, flowers, candles, incense sticks etc. During the night of the full moon, many people will release a small raft like this on a river. Governmental offices, corporations and other organizations also build much bigger and more elaborate rafts, and these are often judged in contests. In addition, fireworks and beauty contests take place during the festival.
Apart from venerating the Buddha with light (the candle on the raft), the act of floating away the candle raft is symbolic of letting go of all one’s grudges, anger and defilements, so that one can start life afresh on a better foot. People will also cut their fingernails and hair and add them to the raft as a symbol of letting go of the bad parts of oneself. Many Thais believe that floating a krathong will create good luck
Had all the men in Oxford gone mad overnight? The postman started it. When I opened the door, he stood there grinning like a Cheshire cat, and lingered rather longer than necessary while I signed for a package.
But it was the (male) librarian at my local library who really seemed to have lost his marbles.
Only a few days previously, he had processed my son’s books in the nursery section, and he had seemed like a perfectly normal, capable, soul.
Now, though, he was a man on the edge.
But what had inspired this frankly odd behaviour from complete strangers? Quite simply, it was my pair of perfectly perky 36DD breasts.
What they didn’t know of course was that they were in fact made of silicone and had been ‘added’ to my chest the previous day.
While I’ve never been one of those completely flat-chested girls who can run around all day wearing a vest and no bra, my breasts are not my defining feature.
But would I want them to be? Well, like it or not, this past week they were – in the name of journalistic investigation.

Ben Underwood is blind, both of his eyes were removed (cancer) when he was 3… Yet, he plays basketball, rides on a bicycle, and lives a quite normal life. He’s taught himself to use echo location to navigate around the world… He uses no guide-dog, he doesn’t even need hands… he uses sound. Ben makes short click sounds that bounce back from objects… Amazingly, his ears pick up the echoes to let him know where the objects are… He’s the only person in the world who sees using nothing but echo location, like a bat or a dolphin.
