Air Guitars and Rubber Boots

Ok, Finland probably has the weirdest competitions with wife carrying, pea eating and mobile pone throwing but this month Germany had some fun to offer too: Berlin hosted the German Air Guitar Championships - always a great event! Just today - despite horrid weather - splash divers competed in Hamburg in the Cannonball World Championships (kind of a masochistic event for those who dig sore butts), and again in Berlin folks with nothing else to do also gathered in Berlin for the Rubber Boot Throwing World Championships. Which brings me back to Finland coz a 70 year old Finnish guy won in the Mens Seniors category and a Finnish woman in the Ladies Seniors. Probably beats sitting in an old peoples home watching TV all day...
Maybe the gay community should think up some new exciting competitions... Gay Games and Eurogames are fine, but how about some fun championships like Dildo Throwing World Cup, Gaydar Contest, Outing Marathon etc etc?! Start practicing boys and babez, I'm sure it's soon to come...

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!

Some examples:

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...
