Although Lohan does look like she drew the short straw when it came to choosing jocks...

"JOCKS THIEF HUNT - TWO ARE HELD"

Well it looks like its gonna be Cork v Kerry in the All Ireland football final... what annoyed me the most was the media (of course we're not biased) reporting on the "Unofficial final" One read "Sorry Cork but this is the REAL Final"...aaaarrrggghhhhh that really gets on my f*cking wick... Happy Place, happy place - floating clouds...aaaaahhhhhhh thats better...Now seen as we are to face the green and yellow of Kerry in the final i decided to search for a pic of The "Gooch" and this is what i found....As you can see they both have a fine pedigree ...but probably pick up woman on Facebook with the username Ramon "I am hot like hot thing love lady, yes...kiss,kiss" and a very different pic on their pages....

THE GOOCH

"Look into my eyes, not around the eyes"

Possibly one of the most angry individuals to grace the small screen since - Jack Nicholson had a turn in The Shining..."All work and no play make Simon Cowell a very rich man"

"My Left Foot" (well technically its her right)

I cant believe i missed this!!!!AAARRRGGGHHH!!!! Here are some pics of Rihanna sporting a lovely Club foot at the MOBO awards presentation in London. The Barbados babe was still wearing her orthopedic boot, which she got from apparently running into a chair... However, she more than likely tripped over an Umbrella left sticking out of the Hat-Stand in the hallway by Jay-Z who had popped over for a game of Buckaroo... I like to think that its payback for Ireland's shitiest summer on record...and guess what since she got the cast we have had sun!!! You work it out!!!!

P.S. Rihanna, if you're reading this and i know you R&B superstars are regular hawkers PLEASE don't take offence...although i will let you have the gates for a week.

YOU GOTTA HAND IT TO THIS GUY -
World's biggest hand

A Chinese man who had the world's biggest hand is hoping for a normal life after undergoing surgery.
Liu Hua, 24, from Jiangsu Province, had fingers thicker than his arms before the operation to remove 11lbs of bone and tissue, reports Xinmin Evening News.

His left thumb, index finger and middle finger were deformed at birth but they have since grown to an amazing size.
Liu said: "My thumb and index finger are even thicker than my arms, and make my left hand useless.
"When I go out, I have to wrap my left hand in clothes and pretend I’m holding a bag."

Doctors at Shanghai City 9th People’s hospital took seven hours to do the surgery. They plan another operation in about six months.
"We kept his five fingers, and hopefully his left hand will eventually regain normal function," a spokesman said.
Liu was suffering from a rare disease called macrodactyly, a birth defect in which toes or fingers are abnormally large.

WOW!!! Well best of luck to him but imagine if he was another Driver and he gave you the finger...you'd soon give him the RIGHT OF WAY!!!!

He's as mad as a Pigeon on PCP but he has also sold hundreds of millions of albums and in the only fitting manner in which he could celebrate his Genius, R Kelly has released the second half of his Inspirational Hip-Hopera - "TRAPPED IN THE CLOSET"


mmmm...NICE BELT!! HE DO LOVE THE LADIES...(he just doesn't bother IDing them first)

Its the BEST CHOCOLATE BAR EVER!!!

Cadbury is to bow down to an internet campaign and bring back the Wispa chocolate bar.

Cadbury will make an initial run of 23million bars in October and gauge interest from there.

The company says customers often ask for old favourites to be brought back, but said the numbers joining the internet campaign to re-launch Wispa were unprecedented.

Cadbury spokesman Tony Bilsborough said:

"This is the first time we are going to give the internet a chance to prove itself and see whether it is all hype or genuine."

Wispa was first brought out in 1981 for a trial in the north east. The bar with a bubbly centre was seen by many as a rival to Nestlé's Aero bar with the slogan "Bite it and Believe It".

Its popularity began to wane in the 1990s and it was finally ditched in 2003 as Cadbury concentrated on other brands but die hard fans of Wispa demanded its return.

Networking sites such as Bebo, MySpace and YouTube have groups, with thousands of members, dedicated to the veneration of he Wispa bar. Cork based radio station RedFM in southern Ireland were at the centre of efforts to bring back the much loved bar with a huge number of listeners signing up for their comeback campaign.

And, earlier this year, two fans stormed the stage at Glastonbury during Iggy Pop's set to hold up a 'Bring Back Wispa' banner.

With every Chocolate success there is an equally tragic story...this is an exclusive picture of one the limited edition WESTLIFE bars that poisoned shelves around the country for a period back in the dark days...

This is the video causing all the controversy in the UK media at the moment:

A top Scottish public school has condemned a video which showed ex-pupils staging a mock 'chav hunt'.

Class Wars was posted on YouTube by former students at Glenalmond College, near Perth, reports the BBC.

The film, which showed teenagers wearing shell suits being chased by classmates dressed as aristocrats, was partly filmed on the school grounds.

Officials have described the spoof as "deeply offensive" and said it did not reflect the ethos at the school.

The warden of Glenalmond College, Gordon Woods, said the film had been made by former pupils of the £23,000-a-year school.

If that didn't whet your controversial tastebuds then check out this Asian advert for the Triple Burger from Burger King...You'll never eat your meat in the same way again!!!!
