Blog a blog blog blog, blog a blog blog!


A surf around the blogosphere is an absolute delight. Yesterday I found myself mesmerised by a person who blogs about clouds, a blog that encourages you to send in photos of yourself with a paper bag on your head, preferably in far flung and unusual places. But my favourite was the blogger who has dedicated himself to 'shopping' badly airbrushed or manipulated posters and magazine covers to the public.

Within moments I found myself marvelling at the fact that in one poster Lois Lane's arm does indeed appear to be 5 foot long! And did you know that in the film poster for Basic Instinct in Korea for some reason Sharon Stone was photoshopped so she'd have wet hair, but in the mirror behind her she's still got, yes, you guessed it... dry hair!

DA DA DAH!

Yes, folks it's another heinous photoshopping crime solved by our mysterious blogging wunderkind! We can all sleep easy in our beds knowing he's on the case! I for one am SO relieved.

Oh yes, if you've not yet sampled the delights of the blogosphere you are missing out, dear ones. There's a whole planet of weirdness out there!

And then, just when you're about to take your hallucination meds, you see something that's actually quite useful...

So I leave you with clever idea of the day. Virtual weight loss, courtesy of Weight View... www.weightview.com
Sign up, upload a photo and BOOM! they send you back the same photo of you but at your goal weight. Quick tip...you need to sign up to facebook and invent a US zip code or it won't work.

But you can see above why I like it so much. Nothing like a little instant gratification to keep the pounds falling off!
P.S. Paperbag heads are optional!
P.P.S. I was in a far flung location too!

Chill! Losing weight is hard enough!

Feel like snacking? Go pop some bubble wrap instead!
