Hitler’s Cross

24

August

Great name for a restaurant?

Not really! Who on earth would come up with such a name for a restaurant?

Puneet Sabhlok actually has. Naturally there is some upcry about his restaurant name in Bombay, India. Apparently over the first days of opening he even had a Hitler poster on the wall. What a freak!


Map of the week: Wikimapia Melbourne

23

August

Wikimapia is a very cool marriage of Google Maps & Wikipedia. Its mission - to “describe the whole Earth.” The beezhouse is most interested with the Melbourne portion which already has seen a bit of activity. Basically, it’s an interactive map that allows anyone on our globe (and possibly those on other plains) to label a place of interest in almost any language anywhere.

However, I am not sure that the “maps” portion of Google Maps is working as it should…why is it that we are always lagging behind everyone else? Kashmir will probably have maps before us, but in the meantime, we’ll have to settle for satellite images.

So for all you Melburnians, zoom in and check out the CBD district. Beezhouse has already claimed a portion of the land in and around Collins, Little Collins, Swanston and Elizabeth Streets, but there is plenty left to tag. Go ahead: Describe your Melbourne to the rest of Earth. (Maybe someone like the Melbourne Coffee Review can tag all the Illy spots for espresso!)

If you make you’re way down to Chapel Street in Prarhan, you’ll find that we took the liberty to tag it “doof doof doof” for our tourist friends. You’ve been warned by beezhouse.com, venture at your own risk!


Proudly Beat Your Chest

23

August

“In a world where metrosexuals–stylish, well-groomed, and sharply dressed men–have taken the center stage in defining the new masculinity, small pockets of men are starting to emerge, rebelling against the status quo. This new breed of man has rejected a lifestyle of wine tasting, pedicures, and excessive cultural awareness (i.e., any cultural awareness). This newly born response to metrosexuality is gaining momentum like never before, calling back to a day when men proudly wore plaid, ate liver and onions, and smelled like motor oil by choice. This modern man has come to be known simply as: the hetrosexual.

Hetrosexual men aren’t afraid embrace their masculinity. They eat, drink, and sleep like real men: fully engorged. There’s no such thing as a “fashion faux-pas” in the world of hetrosexuality. In fact, even the use of the phrase “faux-pas” draws the ire of the hetrosexual man in the form of beatings and social isolation (preferably both). These are men who refuse to be pigeonholed into the constraints of sexual ambiguity, and gladly welcome every opportunity to crotch-wrestle a hot babe. Hetrosexuals are making it cool to be straight again; straight is the new gay.” - Maddox, on Amazon.com

Perhaps you have heard of a book titled The Alphabet of Manliness? No? Neither had I. George Ouzounian, owner of the Best Page In The Universe has penned this nasty little number extolling the virtues of allowing your testosterone to freely express itself. Rebel against fine clothes and fashionable haircuts! This book is the ‘must read’ for the year. Feed your inner neanderthal and buy a copy here and check out the associated site here.

While you’re feeling manly and everything that goes with it, take a little test to see if you’ve got what it takes to spot a pedophile in your neighbourhood. If this sort of humour isn’t your scene, and it’s not for everyone, then I strongly advise that you do not venture anywhere near the Best Page In The Universe. Oz has warned you. Do not take it lightly.
