Flying Monkey Costume

Is this what the Flying Monkeys looked like in The Wizard of Oz?

Found this bizarre image of a flying monkey costume from Germany. It comes from a list on the always unusual Cracked.com of The 30 Most Unsettling German Halloween Costumes.

NASA to start irradiating monkeys

All in the name of science, I suppose. Get your monkey-ass to Mars.

MSNBC article on why NASA will test to see how the radioactive environment of space impacts humans… or more accurately: how the radioactive environment of space impacts monkeys.

Or you could design a ship made of the stuff they put on your genital area when taking x-rays. That works, right?

Just got this in an email:


I don't care if you lick windows,
take the special bus or occasionally pee on yourself.
You hang in there, sunshine-you're friggin' special.
Every sixty seconds you spend angry, upset or mad,
is a full minute of happiness you'll never get back.
Today's Message of the Day is:
Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly,
Laugh uncontrollably, And never regret anything that made you smile.
Life may not be the party we hoped for,
but while we're here, we should dance.


Cute. A bit rough around the edges, but the sentiment is nice.
