Food for thought

INDONESIAN Foreign Minister Hassan Wirajuda has defended his country's continued use of the death penalty, saying it had executed fewer people since independence in 1945 than the US executes in a year.

A Caribbean Rasta-type guy from work was saying goodbye and came in for a handshake.
As I extended my hand I realised he was going for a 4 stage urban shake which I totally fucked up.

Anyway, whilst searching for an instructional video on how to do it right I came across this gem.

Carrot cake

This is a simple recipe but it tasted great. I didn't have cinnamon which the recipe called for but substituted ground ginger and it was fine. You can see the recipe for this cake here.

Short-term effects of alcohol

I was reading an informative site on the dangers of alcohol

Effects of alcohol

Short-term effects

Depending on how much you drink, your experience with alcohol and the environment in which you are drinking, alcohol can cause:

  • relaxation, feeling of well-being
  • loss of inhibitions
  • dizziness, unclear judgement
  • uncoordinated movements, slow reactions
  • blurred vision, slurred speech
  • unconsciousness
  • death

I would hate to see the long term effects.

Mur's handy home tips!

1. If you're choking on an ice cube simply pour a cup of boiling water down your throat. Presto! The blockage will instantly remove itself.

2. Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold while you chop.

3. Avoid arguments with the Missus about lifting the toilet seat by using the sink.

4. For high blood pressure sufferers: simply cut yourself and bleed for a few minutes, thus reducing the pressure in your veins. Remember to use a timer.

5. A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.

6. If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of laxatives, then you'll be afraid to cough.

7. You only need two tools in life - WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

8. Remember: Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.

9. If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem

On high in Sinai.

Moses was on psychedelic drugs when he heard God deliver the Ten Commandments on Mount Sinai, an Israeli researcher claimed in a study published this week.

Such mind-altering substances formed an integral part of the religious rites of Israelites in biblical times, Benny Shanon, a professor of cognitive psychology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem wrote in the Time and Mind journal of philosophy.

"As far as Moses on Mount Sinai is concerned, it was either a supernatural cosmic event, which I don't believe, or a legend, which I don't believe either, or finally, and this is very probable, an event that joined Moses and the people of Israel under the effect of narcotics," Dr Shanon told Israeli public radio.

Dr Shanon, who says he himself has dabbled with such substances, says Moses was probably also on drugs when he saw the "burning bush".

"The Bible says people see sounds, and that is a classic phenomenon," he said, citing the example of religious ceremonies in the Amazon in which drugs are used that induce people to "see music."
He mentioned his own experience when he used ayahuasca, a powerful psychotropic plant, during a religious ceremony in Brazil's Amazon forest in 1991.

"I experienced visions that had spiritual-religious connotations," he said.
He said the psychedelic effects of ayahuasca were comparable to those produced by concoctions based on bark of the acacia tree, that is frequently mentioned in the Bible.

Makes as much sense as the rest of the religious claptrap.

Prince Harry saves the world

Call me cynical but I don't believe for one minute that the pampered prince was actually in danger, let alone that he herocially staved off a determined insurgent attack.

Royal spindoctors try awfully hard and I believe that the gullible public and apathetic Brits swallow the soft-baked tripe they serve because they are so socialised to accept this archaic and elitist system and are afraid of change.

When was the last time a royal actually died in battle like the poor bastards that lose their lives or are maimed everyday?

George II at the Battle of Dettingen in 1743 was the last King to actually lead the troops and I think that if they want that kind of crediblity they should follow suit and station themselves in Basra and be exposed to actual danger and not stoop to being bit actors in some concocted day care centre in the middle of a desert that is well out of the firing line.

Joke of the day

A woman walks into a bar and asks for a double entendre,
