Want to know how that live fish dish I posted earlier might have been cooked? Look no further than this Chinese cooking competition that puts chefs up against each other to see who can cook and serve a live snake and fish the fastest.
Thanks Tien!
Sharks vs Cats on Tumblr
August 26, 2009 @ 11:50 pm
If you use Tumblr you have 2 days to help decide the fate of a great animal debate: Who is greater? The cat or the shark? Right now, the sharks are greater, but if you’re a cat person you can help change that by tagging your posts with “cat” when you publish. Easy!

2009 European Womens Pair Cycling

Two sisters, Carla Hochdorfer and Henriette Hochdorfer, are shown in the video above at this year’s European Junior Championships for indoor cycling. The duo seem to be riding fixed-gear bicycles and doing various tricks on them in a lovely dance sequence. [via]
Do I even have to mention that this is amazing? It’s probably hard enough doing these tricks individually…

Chris Cardinal and Threadless.com have teamed up to bring us an online competition called Threadcakes that aims to see who can create the best cake inspired from an actual Threadless T-shirt. The contest began on June 15th and ends on August 3rd, so if you want to enter, you still can because there are plenty of prizes to be won. Just make sure you read the rules so you don’t get disqualified.
The custom cake gallery is growing quickly and some of the cakes are pretty fantastic! See them all here (those 3D cakes are something!).

Giveaway: One month of Netflix for free!
May 26, 2009 @ 2:53 pm
I have 4 free Netflix one-month trials to give away to 4 random readers who submit an outstanding joke via the comments below. One winning entry per IP/email address.
Netflix’s normal trial period lasts only 2 weeks and the codes I have allow you to get an entire month for free. A great deal for a great service. I’ve been a subscriber to Netflix for a long time and it’s currently the one service I pay for that I would have a hard time giving up. It’s addicting. Plus, there are tons of streaming movies available to watch ANYTIME.
So go ahead, tell me a funny joke below and maybe you’ll get a month of free movies from me courtesy of Netflix!
UPDATE: I forgot to say that comments can be submitted until Thursday @ 2PM EST. Sometime after that, I will choose 4 random comments below as the winners. If you win, you will be notified via email! Thank you! The jokes so far are very funny! :)
UPDATE #2: WINNERS ANNOUNCED BELOW!
Thank you all for the funny jokes! Here are the 4 winners, selected randomly via Random.org:
If your name is there and you did not receive an email from me, please contact me for more info! Thank you!
