You want to put WHAT on my face??

Since I stumbled upon the snake massages over the weekend I started searching out other horribly disgusting beauty treatments
I didn't have to look very long before I found the 
(did you know what helps keep their porcelian compelxion is bird shit??)



I found that absolutly appalling, now I know that every country has thier own concept of beauty, but really, bird poop  No, thanks.
They try to make it sound better because it is nightengale defication, but somehow that just doesnt do it for me.
Call me crazy!

Since geisha are reguarded as being lovely, sophisticated ladies in their country of course spa's must exploit this and use this idea to make money!

A spa in New York now offers the geisha facial for a mere $180!
(I'm sorry but if I wanted bird shit on my face I would go sit outside under my oak tree for a few hours for free!!)

Apparently, the poop softens, brightens and nourishes the face.

Enough bashing the facial, maybe one day I will be brave enough to go get this treatment.
This does give me a good business idea though... nightingale breeder?

Stress relief...not so much

Snakes!

Does that make you think stress relief??
(not me)
Well,  some spa's would disagree, the newest type of stress relieving massage involves snakes crawling all over you.
I doubt I'm alone when I say that the thought of snakes crawling all over me is probably the epitome of stress inducing behavior.

(She doesn't look relaxed to me, it looks like she is trying not to move or breath as to not upset the slivering serpents crawling all over her body)
(Hellllllll no!)

Right now this is only available in Israel (fine by me) and for $80 you can have this experience.
The snakes supposedly produce a calming kneading massage, but I don't think that I would be able to enjoy it, I'll keep my $80 and stick with a Swedish ;)

Embrace new things they may be more usefull than you think...

I am completly guilty of not liking change (for the most part)
If I am getting the job done with my current item, I don't need something new and fancy schmancy.

I think the reason is I don't feel like learning how to use a new item and potentially sucking at using it.
(I do not own a smart phone and I plan to stick to my guns on this one for awhile)

That said,  perhaps I should be a bit more open to new things.
I stumbled upon a few quotes that got the wheels turnin....

This 'telephone' has too many shortcomings to be seriously considered as a means of communication. The device is inherently of no value to us.
Western Union internal memo, 1876.


I think there is a world market for maybe five computers.

Thomas Watson, chairman of IBM, 1943


Airplanes are interesting toys, but they have no military value.
Marshal Ferdinand Foch in 1911.



Theoretically, television may be feasible, but I consider it an impossibility--a development which we should waste little time dreaming about.
Lee de Forest, 1926, inventor of the cathode ray tube.
 
 


We don't like their sound, and guitar music is on the way out.
Decca Recording Co. rejecting the Beatles, 1962.


Who the hell wants to hear actors talk?
H. M. Warner, Warner Brothers, 1927.


I found these quotes entertaining, hope you do too!

Tiger's fall from grace

It's no secret that Tiger Woods has experienced a lot of backlash from his extra-martial endeavors.  

Gatoraid, among others have decided that he is no longer "what the company is looking for" in a spokesperson.

Honestly, I really don't give a shit.  

Yeah, I totally feel bad for his lovely wife and kids and I think the media needs to mind their own business. 

At the end of the day this has absolutly nothing to do with me, so I pay it little attention.

That said, I wanted to share this with you.
Recently, I was at Toys R Us purchasing a birthday gift and I saw this...


(My apologies  that this isn't a better picture, I took it from my cellular talking device.)

I found this hilarious!!
I'm wondering two things..
1. If his affairs had not surfaced, would he be in the clearance section?
2. Why would you buy a Tiger Woods figurine in the first place?
