Did you hear about the kidnapping at school? He woke up. I like jokes, but jokes about air conditioners? Not a fan. Can February March? No, but April May. Me: Are you cold? Friend: Yes! Me: You should sit in a corner. Friend: Why? Me: Because it's 90 degrees. I dreamt about drowning in an ocean of orange soda last night. It was a Fanta sea. I gave all my dead batteries away. Free of charge. What do you call a group of deaf cows? Not a heard. A big ass spider crawled onto my keyboard but I've got it under ctrl. If someone tells you to "hold your horses", they're asking you to be stable. Have you heard the rumour about butter? Never mind I shouldn't be spreading it. 4 Likes |

Foreign Affairs / Is It Normal To Beat Up Your Passengers If They Don’t Want To Leave The Flight by jerrykho(m): 10:27am On Apr 12, 2017 |
The flight was overbooked and United, offering $400 and a hotel stay, was looking for volunteers to take another flight to Louisville at 3 p.m. Monday. Four people were needed to give up their seats to stand-by United employees that needed to be in Louisville on Monday for a flight. Passengers were told that the flight would not take off until the United crew had seats and the offer was increased to $800, but no one volunteered. Then they selected them via computer and when one man became “very upset” and said that he was a doctor who neededto see patients at a hospital in the morning, security came and threw the passenger against the armrest before dragging him out of the plane bleeding. Everything United’s CEO had to say about this was apology for having to “re-accommodate the customers”, and the Internet is furious right now. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/united-airlines-doctor-david-dao-drag-flight-3411-overbooking-chicago-hospital-a7679426.html

Brazilian psychology student Bruno Borges, 24, who was working on a project about aliens, disappeared from his home, leaving his room locked. When it was finally opened, it revealed a full room covered with Illuminati and Satanist codes and symbols with a $2500 statue of Giordano Bruno in the middle – the man who firstclaimed the existence of extra-terrestrial life in 16th century. Parents don’t know what to think – either their son disappeared or he is just planningto publish his 14 books, he had handwritten to continue the work of his idol Giordano Bruno. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/3262463/illuminati-obsessed-student-bruno-borges-vanishes-brazil-alien-hunter/?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C2220041848

The Quirinal Palace in Rome, Italy, is one of three residences of the president of the Italian Republic. It is 20 times the size of the White House, and has been home to 30 popes, four Italian kings, and 12 Italian presidents. Current Italian President Sergio Mattarella has opened the 1,200-room, 16th-century palace to the public, as it houses temporary and permanent artexhibitions.

Though she's technically not the political leader of the country, Queen Elizabeth II resides in London's Buckingham Palace, which has been home to the British monarchy since 1837. It features 775 rooms, which include 52 royal bedrooms, 188 staff bedrooms, 92 offices, and 78 bathrooms. The British prime minister, however, lives in 10 Downing Street in London. Current PM Theresa May lives there with her husband, Philip.

The Presidential Palace of Hanoi in Vietnam was built for the Governor General of Indochina in 1906. Today it's used for official receptions only. A carp pond surrounds the palace, which, like a lot of French Colonial buildings in Indochina, was designed by a French architect and looks distinctly European.

The Moscow Kremlin, meaning "fortress inside a city," was built between the 14th and 17th centuries. It houses the official residence of Russia's presidents. The Senate Building, inside the Kremlin complex, is President Vladimir Putin's official residence.

The Imperial Palace sits in the middle of Tokyo, but inside of a vast park surrounded by a moat and thick stone walls. It's home to Japan's Emperor Akihito and his family. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the current president of Turkey, resides in Ak Saray (also known as the White Palace) in Ankara, Turkey. The palace cost $615 million to build and has more than 1,100 rooms, making it larger than both the White House and the Palace of Versailles. Bellevue Palace, a neoclassical palace in the middle of Berlin, has been the official residence of the president of Germany since 1994. German president Frank-Walter Steinmeier lives in it today, but it was built in 1785 for the youngest brother of Frederick the Great, became a school under Kaiser Wilhelm II, and was a museum under Nazi rule. Perched on a hill in Vaduz, Liechtenstein, is Vaduz Castle, where Prince Hans-Adam II of Liechtenstein lives. Although it's closed to the public, on August 15 — Liechtenstein's National Day — large ceremonies are held on the lawns of the castle and participants are invited to the castle's gardens for a reception.

Near the famous Champs-Élysées in Paris, France, the Élysée Palace (or Palais de l’Élysée) has been the official residence of the President of the French Republic since the 1840s. French president François Hollande has lived here since 2012. The palace, which was built in 1722, is dripping in gold. The best example of its lavish interiors is the Salle des Fêtes (or "Hall of Festivities"), where every French president is inaugurated. It is also the official room for conferences and banquets. The president's office is known as the Salon Doré(or "golden room"), aptly named for the abundance of gold it features on its walls, doors, tables, and even chairs.

Hayden Christensen He became famous worldwide in his youth, so by the age of 35 he was tired of the delights of celebrity life. Recently he moved his family to his homeland in Canada and bought a farm there. Now Hayden is the owner of his own vegetable gardens, a henhouse, and stables. He works the land on a tractor and collects immense crops. Arnold Schwarzenegger Schwarzenegger is a world-class celebrity, but he’s not boastful at all. In 2004, while relaxing at a seaside resort, he saved a drowning man. The surfer’s leg fell asleep, and the actor carried him 100 meters to the shore. He never told journalists about this situation and didn’t use it for commercial purposes. Keanu Reeves This actor’s kindness and humble way of life have long been a reason for creating memes on the Internet. He constantly spends his paychecks on charity, gives gifts to others, wears extremely simple clothes, and travels on the New York subway, increasingly amazing the already surprised public.

Jennifer Garner This Hollywood beauty has always been simple and tried not to show her huge financial possibilities. Instead, she often visits mass-market stores and purchases products with her children in a perfectly ordinary market, just like a simple American housewife. Steve Jobs Despite his fantastic income, the founding father of the Apple empire always adhered to simplicity in everything. He wore only one outfit: jeans, black turtleneck, and white sneakers. He lived in a house at 2101 Waverley Street which certainly cannot be called a mansion. Tyra Banks The famous "America’s Next Top Model" ignores chic restaurants and fashionable establishments. She thinks that places like The Cheesecake Factory, where one can find delicious yet inexpensive food, are quite suitable for her. Russell Crowe One of America’s most in-demand actors refused to live in a gorgeous mansion in Los Angeles and moved with his family to Australia. Crowe bought a ranch and a simple jeep. And now, instead of expensive cars and brand clothes, he’s surrounded by horses and spacious fields.

Coco Chanel Mademoiselle Coco greatly facilitated the life of all the women of the world who had to wear bulky hats with feathers and layered dresses. She created the famous "little black dress" and made men’s wardrobe elements ultra trendy: jackets, blouses with ties, hats, umbrellas, and cufflinks. She wore all of it herself, showing how luxurious a woman can look in such outfits. Mark Zuckerberg The founder of Facebook is very laconic in choosing outfits, so simple gray T-shirts predominate in his wardrobe. As he himself admits, clothes aren’t the thing he intends to spend time on. And this is despite the fact the young billionaire’s income would allow him to buy hundreds of items of famous brands every day. Ingvar Kamprad The founder of IKEA has been promoting simplicity for many years. He buys inexpensive products and clothes in the sales, has used an old Volvo for about 15 years, and chooses to fly in economy class. His house is furnished with items from his own stores. He’s considered to be one of the most modest billionaires in the world. Boris Johnson Boris Johnson, former mayor of London and now Minister for Foreign Affairs of Great Britain, chooses the most ordinary bicycle instead of a motorcade to get to his workplace. He considers it an excellent replacement for the car and encourages citizens to follow his example.

Light pillars This beautiful optical phenomenon appears when light from the sun, the moon, or cities reflects from tiny ice particles in the air. Snow "spaghetti" in one of Finland’s lakes A man from Hämeenlinna, Finland, discovered snow threads that looked like noodles on the lake near his house. He later learned that he could take these threads and make snowballs. The threads may have been shaped by movements of wind and water before the fallen snow melted. A dancing forest There is a forest in Russia where trees are strangely bent, and scientists haven’t yet come to a conclusion about this phenomenon. Some think the reason is parasites, while others blame strong sea winds. Old-timers think this place is haunted. Sprites Some thought these red or blue flashes that appear at great heights were alien spaceships. Only after the phenomenon was caught on camera in 1989 was it proved that the sprites are"distant relatives" of lightning.

"Red tide" Red tide is caused by enormous amounts of tiny red algae near the water’s surface, a phenomenon similar to water blooming. Red tides are dangerous to sea dwellers because the oxygen content in the water decreases, while hydrogen sulfide and ammonia increase. A number of scientists connect the red tide with the first plagues of Egypt, where the waters of the Nile turned to blood, killing the fish. Brocken spectre If you’re in the mountains and look away from the sun, you can sometimes see the shadow of a giant surrounded by a rainbow halo. This is actually the shadow of the watcher himself cast on the mist. Small drops fracture the light, which then form the halo around the shadow. This phenomenon is most frequent on Brocken, a mountain in Germany. It was once thought to be the doing of witches on Walpurgis Night. Naga fireballs The Mekong River in Thailand sometimes erupts with crimson fireballs that rise 30-50 feet above the water and disappear. They usually appear in October, and there’s even a festival dedicated to this phenomenon. Scientists explain it as inflammation of gases rising from the river; locals believe the balls to be sent by Naga, a half-snake, half-human living in the river. Valley of falling birds In Jatinga Valley, India, birds have behaved very unusually for centuries: they circle very low, and some even fall to the ground semi-conscious. Birds usually find their way by the sun and the magnetic field of the Earth. The reason for their strange behavior must be in geophysical anomalies.

St. Elmo’s Fire Tower spires and mast tops are sometimes lit by ghostly fires, usually during a storm. Medieval Europeans believed these dancing lights to be the promised gift of St. Elmo, the patron saint of sailors: legend has it he promised to pray for them and give warnings in the form of lights on masts. Ice circles on rivers Perfectly round and slowly turning circles of ice are formed by eddy flows in rivers. A piece of ice begins to turn, grinding down its corners on the surrounding ice and becoming a perfect circle. The phenomenon has been reported in Scandinavia, North America, Germany, England, and Russia. The crooked forest The Crooked Forest is located right outside of Nowe Czarnowo, West Pomerania, Poland. The grove contains approximately 400 pine trees with bent trunks. They were planted sometime in 1939, but why or who made them crooked is unknown. The Baltic Sea anomaly A strange object was found on the bottom of the Baltic Sea, looking like a UFO. Scientists haven’t yet come to a consensus about its origins. It’s made of basalt, so it is not a spaceship. Theories are that it’s a result of glacier meltdown or a secret Nazi military facility from WWII. http://izismile.com/2017/04/05/earth_hides_so_many_mysterious_secrets_from_us_14_pics_1_gif.html 1 Share
