Princess Diana

Only in America!  Someone in the USA is selling a speck of Princess Diana’s hair for just $9.95 on eBay, unbelievable!

If you look further down the page, hair specks are obviously their speciality as there are other celebrity locks for sale, well actually they’re not even locks, not exactly sure what a speck is but if you look really closely at the little box at the bottom of the image this is what you are bidding for, totally bizarre.

Howard began his career at just 18-months of age as he played along to one of his favourite nursery rhymes ‘Old McDonald Had A Farm’, and look at him now, how impressive is this little rocker.

Volcanic Ash

Some people will buy anything and this website just goes to prove it after advertising a jar of volcanic ash from Iceland.  ( www.nammi.is)

The ash has been collected and can be shipped out to customers anywhere in the world, so if you want to be a piece of history here’s where you will find this little treasure.

The site is claiming to be selling the ash with all profits going to ‘ICESAR’ that is helping with the cleaning up process after the eruption.

I can’t imagine anybody who would really want to purchase I jar of ‘dust’, but then some people just don’t know what to spend their money on next I guess!

This is the body of David Morales Colon sat astride his beloved Honda motorbike after being murdered the previous week at the age of 22.

The young man has been embalmed and dressed in his favourite biking outfit with his crash-helmet behind him on the pillion seat, what a way to go.

As the small dead body of the squirrel lays on the ground his mate stands guard over him, shaking his tail at the approaching crows in a warning manner before chasing them off.

At one point he even lays down beside his little buddy before once again showing the birds who’s boss, what a plucky little chap.

I say surreal, but it is really just weird, it is about rather odd couples that decide to raise a monkey, not as a pet, but as if the animal were their own child.

We are told that there are around 15,000 monkey babies living in homes across the USA and for some owners/parents the human like qualities of monkeys make them the ideal option to having a real family.

The monkeys should not complain however as they are spoiled rotten by their not quite right in the head parents, who shower them with normal childrens clothes, toys, games and even make up.

Watching the ‘Mothers’ dressing the little darlings up is like watching young girls playing with their dolls, while taking the monkey out in a pram really is surreal.

It transpires that many of the parents have lost touch with their own, or step, children, who obviously ran at the first chance and never looked back.

Really I could go on for hours, but I will instead leave you with this quote from Lori and Jim Johnson:

‘If I hear anyone call her a monkey I throw a fit,’ says ‘dad’ Jim, ‘She’s my daughter, 100%’.

For Lori, having a ‘monkid’ seemed the perfect answer to her needs: ‘I knew exactly what I was going to do, she was going to be a baby I was going to have forever.’

A rather attractive horse!

A 66-year-old man, named as Joseph Squires of Leicester appeared in court this week accused of having sex with a horse and a donkey.

He was charged with buggery of the horse between March 15-18 and buggery with the donkey between February 2-5 of 1999.

The pensioner was due to stand trial of the crimes but pleaded guilty to both counts and two further charges of property damage relating to the animals.

On a request that the man be given bail, his defence counsel said that Squires had no previous convictions and was of previous good character. He added;

“The defendant does not have a stable address although he says his daughter can provide an address.”

The judge refused the application for bail and remanded Squires in custody until he is sentenced on May 24.
