How women open beer bottles
I've always admired the gals who can open German beer bottles with a cigarette lighter (contrary to US beer German beer bottles have a tight crown cap that can't be screwed or popped off )... I've tried but only ended up with a sore hand and a broken lighter. Now watch the woman in this ad... this is definitely the ultimate bottle opener.... I'll start practicing tomorrow, but probably end up with a very sore belly button!

Talking Cats
Being the owner - no my mistake - I mean: being the tolerated can opener and fur stroker of a wonderful cat, I always love funny cat videos. This one is hilarious and encouraged me to try to teach my cat to say "I love you"! Of course she is far too clever and too much of a diva to even attempt to do anything I ask her to do, so I've finally given up and spend my time watching other peoples' felines chatting away instead. Enjoy!

German weather gone funny
We've had sleet and snow to start off Spring here in Berlin...but now finally the sun came out and as usual the Berliners populated all the street cafés and changed from bad mood mode to happy cosmopolitan mode. Just found one of my favorite blooper videos. Popular German weather lady Maxi Biber (pronounced beeber, means beaver!) had a giggle attack while on air... you don't have to understand what she says, except for between laughing and temperatures and sunny spells she manages to say "I'm sorry" about 5 times...

Oranges aren't the Only Fruit
Today in the supermarket I saw a woman at the fruit shelves picking up oranges one by one and softly squeezing them before placing them into her basket. She did this very slowly and obviously enjoyed the feeling! Watching her fruity pleasure reminded me of an Israeli TV ad from 1998 by Citrusfruit company Tapuz. It was quite challenging at the time - not only because of the apparant though subtle lesbian erotica but also because it confronts the orthodox morals. A modern Israeli woman dares to drive into a religious neighbourhood with a sleeveless shirt and pants, flirting with an orthodox woman while peeling an orange - in her mind obviously not only undressing the fruit.
One of my fav books is Oranges aren't the Only Fruit, but watching this ad you'll see oranges can be a very sexy fruit!

My favorite World Cup Video
As we're all in Football World Cup mania here in Berlin, I'd like to share my favorite WC video - which is disgusting but still funny in a yucky kind of way... and it shows what some women have to endure during football events like these.

Video still kills the Radio Star
I've been blog-lazy..and why? Of course too much work but also because I've been hooked to Google Idol...it's totally stupid and totally fun. Watching teenagers lip-syncing to any kind of pop song - who needs it?! Well obviously we all need a break from shiny want-to-be-perfect American Idol and similar shows.
Gidol then took me to Google Video which is even better, just enter lip-sync into the search and you'll get even worse pop-star-wannabees. My favourites at the moment are these two girls lip syncing to Beep... if only I had had a webcam when I was a kid (or even Internet for that matter)... it so beats using a hairbrush as a microphone and singing into the mirror when noone is watching.
Enjoy!
