Wow! Paris Hilton spent off $280 grand for a diamond-encrusted dashboard for her pink Bentley. According to the reports, Paris got someone to phone Bentley in Crewe where the car was made and as if it would be possible to give it a little more sparkle.
“When the man said she wanted to stud the dashboard with a couple of hundred grand’s worth of diamonds, we were stunned. We’re used to dealing with the stars so we expect the odd extravagance, but this is something else.”
She bought a dashboard = We bought our cars.

Now here’s a short story about a chair killed a boy. Do you know the chair you’ve been playing around in the office, adjusting it up and down? I guess you better stop playing it, because it kills. There’s a 14-year-old boy in China was killed when his chair exploded, sending chunks of metal into his rectum and the bleeding killed him. The explosion came from the gas cylinder which was in the base of the chair, yes the part where user adjusts the seat up and down. The cylinder gets more pressures when sit on it and goes boom. Is that strong enough to make an explosion? But this is what people are reporting. Oh shit, I’m sitting on one, I think I better switch chair.

A six year old boy missed the bus to school in the morning so he grabbed the key of his family’s Ford Taurus and drove himself to school. He almost made it but fail, over a bridge, few corners and to the electrical piling.
“When asked by state troopers how he learned to drive, he freely told the officials that he honed his chops in front of the television, playing video games like Grand Theft Auto and Monster Truck Jam”

There’s a truck stolen in Melbourne, Florida which contained 1400 units of Playstation 2 inside. The thieves have successfully disabled the GPS of the truck before they drove it away. After a long trip, the driver slept overnight on Sunday and didn’t realize that the truck is missing until he woke up on Monday morning. I wondered if he need to pay for 1400 stolen PS2s, that would be a nightmare.

I’ve just realize that there are two buttons at the top left of YouTube video. There are the theater view and light off. The theater view will look like something above, widescreen while the light off will darken the background, focus on the video only. However, this feature is available on some videos only. It’s most probably for HD video. One example video here.

Prison officers at Camp Jail were doing so clean up and found 37 prisoners had concealed mobile phone into their body. 30 of them were able to remove the phone without getting into hospital however there were seven of smartphone owners were unable to remove and required surgery, I guess they are really smart.
Although this is the largest single incident of this type prisoners often get caught with hidden phones – last year a UK prisoner required over 200 stitches and needed part of his bladder removed during surgery to remove a particularly large handset from his rectum.
The men identities have been shown to public on the prison notice board and they will be transferred to punishment cells after discharged from hospital. One more shot after the break. Read more…
