Hello Monday! Now there is nothing better than starting the day off with a good old rant! I wanted to have a nice Lie-in today because I had a busy weekend of late nights and early mornings, so I just wanted to catch up on some lost sleep! NOW, I HATE DUST-BIN LORRIES! Because I was woken up by one this morning! Why the hell do that have to make so much noise! And they took so long! So they woke me up and I could get back! Arggg! I HATE THEM! Stupid dust-bin lorry!

Meet Fran Dando! Fran has a fear! This fear is a bit odd but true! FRAN Dando is so terrified of bananas she gets ill just being near them - so if she sees one, she splits. Even a glimpse can make the 21-year-old hyperventilate, sweat and throw up. Unfortunately son Harrison, two, loves them - but she has to wear rubber gloves to feed them to him. Fran, of Hastings, East Sussex, said: "I make the exception because he's my little boy. But when someone takes one out or has some in their house I have to leave the room. It is embarrassing and friends have tried to snap me out of the fear but nothing works."

She can slip up reading with Harrison - because she can't even look at PICTURES of the fruit. It started when Fran was seven and her brother hid a banana in her bed. She said: "I felt this horrible slimy thing. It frightened the life out of me. "Suddenly I was hyperventilating and sweating. I was frozen in panic. Ever since then if I see one the same feeling comes back." Just so you know, this phobia is called...Get ready for it...BANANAPHOBIA! What a name for it!

Every year, the Oxford English Dictionary adds a ton of new words that have entered pop culture . . . which basically legitimizes them as part of the English language. And every year we mourn how DUMB our language is getting. And this year . . . is no exception. Oxford has added about 2,000 new words and phrases, some of which have been making us cringe for years, and some of which are so old and lame, no one even says them anymore.
Here are some of their high-profile additions . . .

VUVUZELA. "Long horn blown by fans at soccer matches."
BROMANCE. "A close but non-sexual relationship between two men."
CHILLAX. "Calm down and relax."
SOCIAL MEDIA. "Websites and applications used for social networking."
BUZZKILL. "A person or thing that has a depressing or dispiriting effect."
STAYCATION. "A holiday spent in one's home country."
CHILL PILL. "A notional pill taken to make someone calm down." (???)
CHEESEBALL. "Lacking taste, style or originality."
WARDROBE MALFUNCTION. "An instance of a person accidentally exposing an intimate part of their body as a result of an article of clothing slipping out of position."
HATER. "Negative person."
DEFRIEND. "Another term for unfriend (remove someone from a list of friends or contacts on a social networking site)."
LBD. "Little black dress."
INTERWEB. "The Internet."
FRENEMY. "A person with whom one is friendly despite a fundamental dislike or rivalry."

Tuesday 24th August

Hellooooo! Welcome to another blog! Its a lovely day where I am here this afternoon but its very windy! So here's a tip for you, if you wear a wig, my advice is, don't go out today...Otherwise you'll loose it! So it is GCSE day! I hope you got the results you wanted! I remember the day I went to get my GCSE results...But we won't talk about that!

Now, would you a buy a toilet that belonged to someone famous? YES...Well here's something for you...A toilet alleged to have once belonged to author JD Salinger has been put on eBay for $1m (£644,00). You won't be able to buy something like that from J Mart or Poundland! According to reports, the seller claims to have acquired the "used toilet commode" from the owners of a house that Salinger once owned. The toilet is said to be "uncleaned and in its original condition". I bet he even had a sneaky wee on the seat...As all men do now and then! "Who knows how many of [his] stories were thought up and written while Salinger sat on this throne!" the listing adds.

The item comes with a letter from the owners of the house in Cornish, New Hampshire, confirming that they removed the toilet during renovations. Salinger, who died in January at the age of 91, is best known for writing the book Catcher in the Rye. Interested in owning a toilet that was used by someone popular? YES, well do some searching on Ebay!

APPARENTLY, Searching for 'Porn' or rude images can put viruses onto your computer, but now Cameron Diaz can be classed as porn...BECAUSE Cameron Diaz has been named the most dangerous celebrity to search for online. Computer software makers McAfee warned that Diaz tops a list of stars whose names are often linked to online scams. Other celebrities on the company's annual list included Julia Roberts and Jessica Biel.

McAfee's findings suggest that criminals believe that using famous names is the most effective way of luring people into visiting risky websites. If viruses on these sites infect a computer, the user's personal information such as e-mail passwords and bank account details can be stolen. News reports are saying, that if you download any of her wallpapers, you will put some viruses onto your computer! SO DON'T OPEN THEM! Yes, you can now catch something from Cameron Diaz without sleeping with her! FLIPPING 'ECK!!

Showing your underwear ladies could get you into trouble! I know, and us men can get away with it...Its weird, isn't it...A New Orleans woman was jailed for ten days after she went to court in low-riding shorts which revealed her underwear. Kimberly Senette, 23, had only gone to court to urge her brother Lawrence Senette, 18, to accept a plea deal! And yet, us men can wear our jeans down to our knees, showing our boxers...Judge Steve Windhorst took a dim view of her revealing outfit and locked her up for contempt of court, reports the Times-Picayune newspaper.

Miss Senette was wearing knee-length shorts which revealed her pants and the top of her buttocks, according to a witness. When Judge Windhorst questioned her appearance, she said she had to remove her belt when going through a security checkpoint at the courtroom entrance. She ended up being handcuffed and seated a row behind her brother as he eventually accepted a 12-year prison sentence in exchange for his guilty plea to carjacking and battery charges. What can I say, us males must be lucky!

Wednesday 25th August

Happy National Banana Split Day! Oh, and happy Wednesday! We are now half way through the week! Not long to go until we're in another Weekend! Wow, I love it when these weeks just fly by! I was in my garden this morning with a nice cup of tea and I noticed it was all starting to look a bit grim...There aren't many nice flowers blooming now so I want you help, if you are good out in the garden! Can you let me know via email which flowers will be nice to plant in the garden for this time of year! Please help me! I am usually good in the garden but I am just stumped now! casey.floyd@mtjr.co.uk Thankssss!

Next time you get stuck in traffic, just think about these people in China! This is one of those things that would be earth-shattering news here in the UK. . . . but just kinda makes sense in China. Right now in Beijing, there are people who've been stuck in a 62-mile traffic jam FOR TEN DAYS. Seriously! This is no JOKE! With no end in sight. Chinese officials had to close one freeway because it had been so damaged that it was un-drivable. That pushed all the traffic to another freeway, the Beijing-Tibet Expressway, on August 14th . . . and since then it's been hopelessly jammed. According to officials, the traffic jam may not be fully cleared up until MID SEPTEMBER. Local residents have been taking advantage of China's new capitalism trend by selling noodles to stranded drivers . . . at inflated prices of course! So yeah, if you get caught in rush hour in Manchester or Birmingham today, just think about those people stuck on that road in China! I wonder where these people are weeing...hmmmmm...Anyway, moving on!

Sledging is dangerous!! MORE THAN 20,000 PEOPLE GET INJURED IN SLEDDING ACCIDENTS EVERY YEAR. No, August 24th apparently ISN'T too early to start worrying about this. For some reason, THIS is when these study results were released. Over the past decade, 229,023 people (--which is more than 20,000 per year) younger than 19 were treated in ERs for sledding accidents. Fractures are the most common injury . . . and the majority happened during collisions. Flipping eck! So becareful in the snow when it returns this year! ...Thats if we get any, of course!

Our love of Chopsticks is killing China's Forests!! China is the world's leader in manufacturing chopsticks . . . they make 45 billion pairs of disposable chopsticks a year, or 130 million pairs EVERY DAY. Unfortunately, they get the wood from birch and poplar forests, which are getting torn down at the rate of 100 acres per day. Between 16 and 25 million trees are dying each year to make disposable chopsticks for the world. So next time you order a Chinese, maybe its for the best you don't buy their chopsticks...Just keep to the normal, simple Knife and folk!

Looking back on holiday photos is fun, but you never know what you might see in the background...Because a family whose bag was stolen on holiday have managed to track down the thief after spotting him in one of their vacation photos. The Myers family were holidaying in Madison, Wisconsin when they stopped to pose for a photo in front of State Capitol. As father John set the timer and the family turned their back on their bag, the thief swiftly made off with their goods without the holidaymakers noticing.

...Later, the New Jersey family checked the photograph that they had taken and discovered that the felon was clearly pictured grabbing their bags behind them. They showed the snapshot to officers, who immediately recognised the culprit and tracked him down. The thief was still carrying the bag when he was found by police, but pleaded not guilty to misdemeanour theft. Photos can be very helpful you know!

Thursday 26th August

Happy Thursday! I can smell the weekend! The smell is too nice to be the smell of my feet! So its another rainy day here...The grass needs cutting, but it looks like I won't be getting around to do until the Bank Holiday weekend, when it is a bit drier! Oh yeah, did I tell you...The weather for the Bank holiday is meant to be good! High pressure is in charge! But that could change! But lets hope it doesn't. Fingers crossed...And everything else!

Have you ever wanted to be Spiderman??? YES?? Well here's something you're going to LOVE! Scientists say people could soon be able to stick to buildings like Spiderman by wearing special gloves and shoes. Niceeeeee! Researchers at Stanford University, California, have created a new textile inspired by the feet of gecko lizards. It has been tested successfully on a small 'robotic' gecko, called Stickybot, which can walk up panes of glass. I wonder what health and safety will say about this?? Engineers now want to scale up the design for humans as part of a project that has been codenamed Z-Man.

Geckos' ability to defy gravity is due to microscopic hairs on their toes, increasing the surface area, which creates a one-way adhesive. A sticky bond is created with each step but that bond can be broken by movement in the other direction. Professor Mark Cutkosky, the lead designer, said the new rubber-like material is covered with thousands of tiny polymer fibres. Hmmmmm, I wonder if you'll be able to buy these from Poundland...

Now, would you break into someones house and film yourself getting down to it??? No...Mind you, I wouldn't when I have a prefectly good home right here! Anyway...Police had an easy job identifying a naked couple who broke into a house and filmed themselves having sex - because they left the camera behind. Well that was a stupid thing to do! The man and woman were caught having sex on camera at a home in Elma, Washington state, when someone arrived to collect the mail while the homeowner was away. The naked couple fled, but left behind their camera - which enabled Gray Harbor police to identify the two suspects. I hope they had time to put their clothes back on!

"We're not sure what the motivation for the break-in was but it's a fair bet to say narcotics may have been involved," an officer told papers! The 39-year-old woman was arrested later that evening. A warrant has also been issued for the 31-year-old man. And both may face more charges, since the camcorder that was their undoing was also found to be stolen during a separate break-in. They must live in a small house if they couldn't get down to it in their own home!

Here's something to end the blog with...Japanese sumo wrestlers have been given iPads because their fingers are too fat to use mobile phones. The Japan Sumo Association is distributing about 60 iPads among training stables and top officials to help improve communication. "It seems rather easy to use," said association chief Hanaregoma. "Sending emails was very easy." Lucky so and so's! I could do with an Ipad!

Thats it for today readers! Thanks for reading!

Friday 27th August

Happy Friday afternoon readers! I am happy to say that the long bank holiday weekend can start now! Oh, just so you know, this is the last bank holiday before Christmas! I know, where has this year gone! Its just zoomed by! My mum asked me today what I wanted for Christmas...In my head, I said to myself "ah for god sake." But I didn't say that because she's my mother and she was the one that brought me into this world...So I said...'Ooooh, good question...But I can't answer that yet'. But what a stupid question to come out with, this time of year!

So I hope your Friday is going well...Oh look...SUNSHINE! I know! I needed to look up that word on Google this morning because I forgot what it is! Apparently, its meant to be like this for most of the Bank holiday! YAY! Thats if the weather people don't change their minds...As they never do of course! Right, I need to start the blog with some BIG NEWS! I went clothes shopping today! The thing I hate, but I did it! And I've returned home with some new clothes! I think there is something wrong with me...It must be the sunshine thats doing this too me...So I'm very pleased with myself!

I hate loose change in my pocket and I can never find any use for it! But here's something interesting I read today...A man in China has bought a van with pocket change he collected over several years. AMAZING! The pile of change must have been huge! In my bedroom, I do have a box full of 1, 2, adnd 5p's! I have no idea how much money is in that box altogether, because I am too lazy and it would take forever...Maybe I should count it all over the weekend, because you never know, I might have millions in there! Businessman Mr Zhao handed over 100,000 yuan (£9,500) in change at the dealership in the Northern Shandong province. Each note he used was worth no more than one yuan (9.5p), forcing the dealership to bring in extra staff to count the money. Yep, the pile must have been big! So if you have loads of loose change, maybe you could do something like this with it...Just a thought!

Have you ever wondered with Grannies do in the day centre children??? Yeah, well listen to this...Twenty grannies have spent two months knitting nearly 70lbs of wool into a trendy tea cosy for a Smart car. Well, you can sort of tell these grannies had a lot of time on their hands...The project was the brainwave of Zurich-based company the Swiss Senior Design Factory and had the aim of bringing young designers in touch with older crafts people. The giant car cover depicts a lace-up trainer and exposes the car's wheels, making it into a giant roller skate. The designers have contacted the Guinness Book of Records to claim the world record for the biggest hand-knitted car cover. Hmmmm, I wonder if loads of these will be made and maybe they will keep our cars warm during cold nights...

Right peeps, thats the blog for this week! The Bank Holiday Weekend starts now! There will be no blog on Monday but it will be back on Tuesday! Have a nice weekend!

Tuesday 31st August

Happy Tuesday! Hope you had a nice Bank Holiday Monday! I had a well nice one because the weather was lovely! I even spent the whole afternoon sat outside in the sunshine in my shorts and I even caught some sun believe it or not! The weather is the same today...Hey, is this Summer returning?? Oooo I hope so!

If you're a connoisseur of fine whisky, here's an exciting new concoction you might be interested in - whisky made from the urine of diabetic patients. Tell you what, I'm not interested in this and I love my Whisky! Anyway, The creation of London-based designer James Gilpin, the biomedical tipple - named 'Gilpin Family Whisky' - is created using the high-sugar urine produced by elderly diabetes patients, including Gilpin's own grandmother. Ewwwww! Gilpin - who is himself diabetic - filters the urine using the same processes used to purify water, removing the sugars in the process, which are then used in the fermentation stages.

Not surprisingly, Gilpin isn't planning to market the pee whisky commercially - instead, it's more of an art project. But if you really fancy sampling some of the stuff, Gilpin will be showing it off at the 100% Materials design event in London in September - complete with tasting opportunities. Whisky made from wee...I don't think I'll want to try some...Even if you paid me, I'll still say no! If you want to find out more about this special Whisky, click here... http://www.jamesgilpin.com/gilpinfamilywhis.html

Tourists are flocking to a run-down former coal mining town in Taiwan – thanks to its huge number of stray cats. Feline fans visit Houtong - a decayed town home to 200 people and 100 cats - to tickle the animals with feathers. Rave reviews given to the destination on local blogs have attracted cat lovers Houtong, one of many former industrial towns that has undergone a seemingly irreversible economic decline as coal became less important to Taiwan's economy. But the tiny, 200-strong population of Houtong is community is reinventing itself as a cat lover's paradise. The visitors get to photograph the cats, tickle them with feather-tipped sticks, and buy a range of cat-related souvenirs. 'It was more fun than I imagined,' said one visitor from Taipei. 'The cats were clean and totally unafraid of people. I'll definitely return.' Who needs big landmarks when all you need is a lot of cats to make an area well-known!

Now for one of the best things ever invented...A little black dress that doubles up as a functioning mobile phone is to be launched in Britain. Sounds well good doesn't it?! The M-Dress allows wearers to make and receive calls by slipping their sim card under the label. Gesture recognition software allows users to pick up a call by raising their hand to their ear and end a conversation by letting it fall to their side.

The M-Dress, designed by the London-based fashion company CuteCircuit, rings when an incoming call is received and different ringtones can be assigned to different numbers. But the garment can only call a limited number of pre-programmed numbers, according to Mashable, the technology website. See, I told you this is one of the best things thats ever been invented!

The dress is described as an "elegant silk jersey dress that is also a functional soft electronics mobile phone" and will be released in 2011. Its price remains undisclosed...But you can sort of guess what the price will be like....Very expensive!

Wednesday 1st September

Greetings! Welcome back to today's daily blog! Well today is another sunny day and its warmer than yesterday...We are getting our final blast of Summer this week, so make sure you make the most of the sunshine! I'm going to be heading out into the garden in a minute...What a great start to September! Oh yeah, its September already!! Where is this year going?? Soon it will be Winter...OH JOY!

As I am on the radio, I'm thinking about insuring my voice and mouth, incase anything happens to them...I think thats a good idea but I think this idea is just stupid...Hairy American football star Troy Polamalu has had a $1 million insurance policy taken out on his famous mane of black curly hair - by a shampoo company. What the hell is going to happen to his hair while playing football??? Its not like someone is going to set his hair on fire to get the ball off him...Head & Shoulders said it had taken a $1 million Lloyd's of London policy on the locks of the Super Bowl-winning Pittsburgh Steelers' defensive player.

29-year-old Polamalu - who was born in the United States but is of Samoan descent - says he has not cut his hair since 2000. Ewwwwww! Men with long hair is just worry! Women should be the only people who should have long hair. Oh, Polamalu's hair has come under attack on the field before, with Larry Johnson of the Chiefs tackling Polamalu by the hair in a 2006 game - but no details were given of exactly what level damage to his hair would trigger a claim on the insurance policy. Well well well!

Oh this weather is great for us men to take our tops off...But a pensioner has been banned from going topless in his own home after claims he is embarrassing his neighbours. Well I have one thing to say to this mans neighbours..."WHY THE HELL ARE YOU LOOKING?" Jim Burgess says he will defy the order to cover up in the corridors and laundry room of his 65-flat building. ‘I am warm-blooded and do not feel the cold,’ the 74-year-old said. ‘There is nothing obscene or immoral about what I am doing and if the housing people think they can steam-roll me into covering up, they are dead wrong.’ Guinness Hermitage Housing, owner of the block in Hayling Island, Hampshire, said residents should be ‘adequately dressed’ in communal areas. Good for you! I don't blame you!!

Mr Tony Blair is in the news today, because of his new book! Yep, he has written a book about his life...WOW! COUGH! Apparently, he's said in the book that he loved his drink when he was Prime Minister...So now we all know why nothing was hardly done when he was in the office! Sorry, but its true! If you want to read more about Tony Blair, you can buy his book as of today! I wonder how long it will be for the book to be placed in the POUND section in Waterstones...Hmmmm!

Thursday 2rd September

Hello Sunshine's! So its another lovely day here in the UK...Make the most of the sunshine because this is our last blast of Summer...According to the weather people who ALWAYS gets things wrong! I could do a better job than them! I am writting today's blog with a sore right hand...I was doing something outside earlier on this morning and I hit my hand on this white pipe that was sticking out of the wall and now my hand is killing me...But I won't be a wimp! But it is hurting! I might go outside after I've written this and give it some fresh air...Who knows, that might make it better!

Yesterday was lovely weatherwise! There wasn't a cloud in the sky all day! And today is the same...I caught a bit of sun yesterday, so I'm going out there again in a bit to see if I can catch some more. I hate looking white! Hikers can be a bit stupid...I mean who the hell would want to walk in heavy rain or snow??? I mean seriously! But there was this hiker who accidentally shot himself in the bum after putting a handgun in his back pocket… because he thought it would be more comfortable there than in its holster! Seeee, I told they're strange! Darrel Elam, from Washington's colourfully named Snohomish County, fired a bullet from the .40-caliber weapon down his left buttock and left leg before it came to rest just above his knee.

The 52-year-old thought moving the gun before setting off on his hike would make the trek more comfortable, according to the Chelan County sheriff's office. hmmmmm...I wonder if the man broke wind after it happening...errr...Anyway, after the incident last weekend, Elam was treated at Central Washington Hospital in Wenatchee before being released. He's recovering well!

Some sad news for you now...A doctor in America has died stuck in her lover's chimney - and her decomposing body was only found three days later. Ooooh sorry, I didn't know you was eating...Yeah, this story is true...And slighty sick! 49-year-old Dr. Jacquelyn Kotarac was reportedly involved in an 'on-again, off-again' relationship with the man, and had tried other methods of breaking into his house before her ill-fated attempt to enter via the chimney. Kotarac first attempted to get into the house last Wednesday night using a shovel, before she climbed a ladder to the roof, removed the chimney cap and slid feet first down the flue, according to police in Bakersfield, California.

While she was attempting to gain entry, the man escaped the house through another exit in order to 'avoid a confrontation,' police said. Police say that it appears Kotarac died after getting stuck in the chimney, but nobody realised her body was there until a house-sitter noticed an unpleasant smell and fluids coming from the fireplace on Saturday. Crumbs, if she got stuck, how does Santa come down there??? The house-sitter and her son used a torch to examine the chimney, and found Kotarac's body wedged about two feet above the top of the interior fireplace opening. Firefighters spent five hours late Saturday dismantling the chimney and flue from outside the home to extract Kotarac's body, DeGeare said. Poor women!!

Just a short one today...Steady ladies COUGH! I'm off out to make the most of the sunshine! Have a nice day!

Friday 3rd September

Happy Friday readers! OMG, I am slipping this morning...I haven't had my breakfast yet! Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day but have you got time for it? I must admit, I have been so busy this morning doing some things around the house, I completely forgot about it! Apparently, most of us haven’t got the time because we’re too busy according to a survey out today. One third of us skip breakfast and a quarter of people say they eat standing up. Sometimes when I'm on the motorway, I see lorry drivers and sometimes car drivers eating on the move! I always start my day with a nice cup of tea and I believe that gets me going and starts the day off great!

Ok, I must admit, smoking is bad and it is hard to give up! But meet Ardi Rizal, the 2-year-old Indonesian toddler who smoked up to 40 cigarettes a day, has finally kicked the habit after being sent to rehab. Rehab is the best way to give up! Thats if you're trying to give up! The toddler, who used to throw a tantrum if he couldn't puff on his favourite cigarettes, was sent to rehab by child protection officials. Following over three months of treatment the tiny tot has finally quit his 40-a-day habit. However, a newspaper revealed that the 2-year-old has developed a thicker lining on his heart, and that Rizal even 'beat his head on walls' following his last puff.

The youngster began smoking at just 11 months after his father Mohammed gave him a cigarette to help ease a headache. After photos showing the boy puffing away on his toy truck were revealed to the world, Indonesian authorities stepped in to save his health. Mother Diana, of Sekayu, Indonesia, sought help after revealing that the family could not afford to support his habit. She stated on Thursday: 'The money can go on other things now.' So well done Ardi Rizal!!

A barber couple have moved their business into a pub... and have launched their own beer to celebrate. hmmmmm...Lets hope there is no hair in it...But I bet there will be...Frankie and Sue Gallagher are offering Gallagher’s Half Cut real ale alongside short back and sides at their 19th-century pub in Wirral, Merseyside. ‘It’s really taken off,’ said Mr Gallagher. 'We stole the deli queueing system from the supermarkets, so our customers take a ticket and then can have a pint as they wait.' We had two barbers shops before this, but we always wanted to open a pub, so when this one became available we were able to bring the two things together.' - So fancy a short back sides with your pint??? Nah, me neither!

Good news for all Vuvuzela haters...UEFA has announced a ban on the vuvuzela in European football competitions. Woooohoooo! I bloody hate those things! The plastic horns proved controversial at this year's World Cup and UEFA has now informed all 53 of its member associations of the ban. Thank god!

Monday 6th September

Hello Monday people! So it is the day most kids went back to School or College and parents went back to work! In other words, its the day when everything slowly gets back to normal! If it was your first day back at whatever, all I can say is "I hope it went OK!" So the hot weather has gone for another year! Today has been cloudy here for most of the day and it even looks like it is going to pour down here soon...I know some people say that rain water is good for the garden but I hate it and its annoying!!!

Now if you LOVEEEE your Baker Beans, do NOT read this, because it might put you off them for a while....The body of a dead rat, believed to have been trapped during tinning, has been found inside a tin of baked beans by a catering chef...I feel sorry for the person who wanted Beans on Toast for lunch....A cook discovered the body on opening the tin of beans, though authorities have so far refused to name the manufacturer. A post mortem revealed that the creature had managed to crawl inside the tin during the tinning process. Heinz, Britain's most famous baked bean manufacturer has already moved to distance itself from the discovery, stating that it was not 'in any way connected to this incident.' I'm going to be staying away from those Beans for a while!

The food scientist heading the inquiry said that the case highlighted 'severe failings somewhere in the food production process. This one of the ultimate horror stories.' he said. 'The rat had come to an untimely end, but was not possible to say if it had died before or after it got into the beans. But enzymatic tests established that it had been through the canning process. A post mortem examination showed that it hadn't eaten recently - it had not enjoyed a last meal of baked beans'! Ewwwwwww! I'm going to be checking everyone of my Baked bean cans now! Oh, sorry if you are eating Baked Beans NOW!

OMG, a Bulgarian fan of Lady GaGa has announced plans to undergo a sex change and several cosmetic procedures to look like his idol. But hang about, if the rumours are true...He wouldn't need a sex change... Penio Dasaklov, a former contestant on his country's edition of Big Brother, told an Online site that he hoped to mould himself into a perfect likeness of the singer in an attempt to boost his own music career. hmmmmmm! I don't think he has throught this though! Oh, It was recently announced that GaGa would have her image reproduced in the form of a waxwork at Madame Tussauds. Niceeeeeee!

BIG CHEER NOW...A grandmother has become a national celebrity in South Korea after passing her driving test at the 960th attempt. YAYA! But about time too! Cha Sa-soon, whose surname means 'vehicle' in Korean, is now appearing in a prime-time Hyundai ad. HA! Fancy having a name that means that...Well Well Well! The 69-year-old has taken her driving test three or four times a week since April 2005. "I wanted to get a driver's licence so I could take my grandchildren to the zoo," Mrs Cha explained. Awwwwww, and now she can! What a great way to end today's blog!
