Hearing voices in your head? Seems like youre not alone, as up to 4% percent of the population does as well!

Banksy is quite possibly one of my favourite artists. Because he’s a genius. You will too, after you check out pics of his latest work, showcased this weekend in his Los Angeles show “Barely Legal.” I wish I could have gone, because I would have loved to try and buy one of […]

    Frank Rich on how the Bush-Cheney machine is trying to rewrite history - they are even going so far as to make the world believe that the 9/11 attacks didnt happen on Bush’s watch.

    This might be the last of the epic music videos that were so famous back in the 80’s or early 90’s: Lady Gaga and Beyonce’s Telephone. Pretty neat (if not weird) production. Beyonce, as usual, looking smokin’! And check out all the product placements, sheesh.

    “We accept that Ms Margolis is not and never has been “a hooker” or otherwise involved in the sex industry.” A funny correction by the Independent news paper.

    I love this Photoblog. Love the sense of mystery, as there is no info, no words about the author, just pictures.
