Hello all you fellow stumblers out there, it's been a while since we last talked, but in that time the internet has certainly produced some finds worthy of notation.


PICS OF THE WEEK

Henri IV Dudognon Heritage Cognac Grande Champagne
 
  This swanky bottle of hooch is a Henry IV, a bottle of liquor so expensive you could put yourself through college... 13 times. I am in no way kidding, I did the math and trust me... I hate math. This Champagne comes in a crystal bottle dipped in 24K yellow gold and sterling platinum and is emblazoned with 6,500 certified brilliant-cut diamonds, all of which are master-crafted by well-known jeweler, Jose Davalos. After aging for 100 years, with an alcohol content of 41% Henri IV Dudognon Heritage bottle weighs approximately 8 kilograms and it is filled with 100 cl. of the precious liquor. The Henri IV Dudognon Heritage is priced at £1,000,000 per bottle or $1,578,309 and 84 cents for those of you dreadful Americans out there.

Why would anyone need such an expensive drink you ask? Well, the answer is quite simple really... the people who can afford to buy such a product think their  recycling bins deserve to nice things too.

I did some more math, you know, just for fun. And i found out that if you were to walk into a really upscale English Pub and request One "YEE OLDE SHOTE, MY GOOD CHAP!" it would cost you approximately $47,000. That's enough to put a down payment on your house.

Also on the list but not quite as extavagent are a few other liqours of the prestigous. You can take a full look at all the other things you can't afford to have here.

ONTO THE NEXT PICTURE!!!

There isn't a lot I can say about this picture other than, hells yeah. Have you ever watched MTV Cribs? Little Bow-Wow has a BMW nicer than I could afford if I was a Russian Czar. I mean, how ridiculous is it that there are actually artists claiming that the use of file sharing sites is taking food away from their kids? Get a grip people. When you can afford your own underwater pinball machine that matches your underwater bowling alley, you shouldn't complain about how many of your 3-minute songs I have illegally downloaded onto my iTunes.

Although I was born and raised a Roman Catholic i can't help but chuckle when i look at this picture. I know, I know, shame on me,  blaspheme and all that. I am aware of the fact that I'm going to hell. And I Have been ever since I put pudding down that kid's pants in third grade but i figured that according to the Catholic dogma, we were all born with original sin anyways so i guess i wont be lacking in good company below deck. Maybe its not such a bad situation after all. I heard that Jack the Ripper is a hoot at cocktail parties.


VIDEO BREAK DOWN

This past month certainly yeileded some interesting finds in the video category check out these videos i found on the web...



Geez, and i thought i was talented because i could belch the alphabet. Keep on trucking big haus, that was indeed a nasty back-flip. Kind of makes me feel like i could be doing more with my life.... no wait, that feeling is gone, I'm fine now, probably just gas. Which leads me to my next video...





That was all sorts of gross. Girl, you need to re-evaluate your priorities because farting on knock off reality TV shows, while hilarious, ain't no way to live your life. Did that last judge say "You're in"? Wow, standards are seriously low in Canada. Can you imagine if any Kelly Clarkson let one rip in front of Ryan Seacrest? Chances are, Simon would say something along the lines of "WORST. FLATULENCE. EVER." I had a Clay Aiken joke that fit perfectly for that spot earlier, however, i feel it may be a little low-brow. Even for this blog.

FINALE

And finally i end this month's entertainment with a list. I give you: 30 Strange Vans I'd Be Tempted to Get Into.

Thanks Peoples,

In the words of the great David Della Rocco... CATCH YOU ON THE FLIP SIDE.
