The Strongest Gnome in the World

The Furious Gnome salutes the winner for 2009, strongest Gnome in the World contest.

Meet Guliano Stroe, from Romania, who happens to be able to benchpress 225, not to mention that he is also only 6 years old! In his spare time, he likes to curl Chevy Malibu's and eat glass.

Jesus if I had this kids strength back in school, I could have shown all those jocks who was boss!

Now, I just watch in amazement, knowing full well that this 6 year old could easily kick my ass.

Japan is ready for space travel






I watched all 9+ minutes of this. It became apparent to me that Japan is ready for space travel.


If I had to fly to some distant galaxy, I would want to do it in a spaceship built by Japan.






After doing some research on the internet, I have learned that the Japanese are 4 to 5 years away from having a working Millennium Falcon prototype, which is capable of speeds in excess of 1.5 past light speed.







This picture was taken in a suburb outside of Tokyo, but is pretty much representative of any city in Japan.




Recent reports suggest robots will completely outnumber humans in Japan as early as 2021.
By 2030 robots will have completely colonized the moon, and will help in building the first Maki Yaki on Saturn's ice moon of Titan.
Safe to say when I want to buy my first robot, you can rest assured it will have been made in Japan.
All my research today on Japan taught me this: if you want to time travel, and can't afford a flying Doloreon, or don't have access to a Klingon Bird of Prey for a slingshot around the sun maneuver, you may just want to book yourself a plane ticket to Japan. 18 hours later, and you can find yourself in the year 2589.

And the Lord said, let there be Ron Artest


As Giddy as a schoolboy I am at this upcoming NBA season, and this picture encapsulates my utter joy. For starters, Ron Ron is a Laker. Awesome. Second, and not much of a secret, but Ron Ron is mentally unstable. To call him crazy would be an insult to crazy people.
No, Ron is a special crazy. Take a look at his mask. Crazy? Yes. But not that crazy for Ron.
What is really scary here is the genius who thought it would be a "good idea" to give Ron Artest a baseball bat. Gee, I wonder what he is going to do with that.
What makes this picture so special, is that Ron is looking into the eyes of someone right now, and you see how he is pointing at someone with that bat? Literally scaring the poo poo out of someone.
Am I excited for the season? Yes. Do I think Ron Artest will help the lakers win? Of course. Will I be surprised to see him at some point choke out Jack Nicholson? Absolutely not.
God bless you Ron Artest.
