New chess piece post
The Monk has been introduced to the game of chess.
There were gasps as the piece was unveiled before the world’s media by Former Grand Master Uri Yelanov and Carol Vorderman.
‘It is very exciting’ said Yelanov, ‘the monk can move three spaces horizontally or diagonally and occupies the starting positions of the middle two pawns that the monks now replace.
Ideas that were rejected by the World Chess Federation included;
‘the Archer’ which allowed you to cheat,
’the Tardis’ which could go back in time and undo stupid moves you did ten minutes ago and
‘the B52’ which allowed you to blow up all your opponents pieces before the game had even started.
This is a joke, btw, i think!

Blackbeards tampons post
I am female.
I am not girly. I am desperately ungirly. I look good in pink, but I feel guilty about it. For various reasons*, I would sooner belly-crawl through broken glass than buy anything marketed "for girls!" or "for women!" And I resent the fact that feminine products have me, as it were, by the short hairs in this regard.
And so, a year or so ago, I decided that I wanted a new brand of tampon. Something that was not girly, that was not pastel, that did not have flowers, and which did not make my ovaries curl up and die of shame. I do not mind having a period--I'd rather not, but eh, goes with the territory--but I detest the marketing.
It's time for a rugged new brand. A brand no one will ever call "girly." A brand you can take to the checkout counter and meet the clerk's eye while you buy it, and if they say a word, you have 'em tied to the mast and flogged.
Blackbeard the Pirate's Rugged Tampons. A product you can trust, from a name you can't!

Just hang in there post
When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on. ~Franklin D. Roosevelt
Fall seven times, stand up eight. ~Japanese Proverb
When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn. ~Harriet Beecher Stowe
Or give up and die. ~Some negative dude
Just venting, that's what this blogs for, U forget.
