Yoda Bat – Star Wars Not So Fictional After All

yodabat

The Yoda Bat was discovered in Papua New Guinea along with hundreds of other species. I certainly felt the force in this extraordinary creature, so much that I had to share. The bat resembles Yoda a tiny bit in my opinion, only the ears nevertheless it’s amazing that the creature was named after a Star Wars Jedi Master Fictional character. It’s funny! It made me think that the scientist(s) who discovered it perhaps were playing [...]

My dear friend Rose from England is a bigger fan of tennis than I am. So she asked me, no, she told me that Andy Murray is going to win the entire tournament. At least as a Brit she automatically would want so. Of course I’m a Rafa fan so I would want for him to win the Wimbledon Tournament. After a while discussing who’s the best (as if it were necessary since Rafa is [...]

Man Robs Bank for $1

James-Verone

This is just an unbelievable story. James Verone, a 59 year old man, walked into a bank and robbed $1, yes 1 US dollar, so that he can be arrested (in fact he waited for the police to arrive) and incarcerated so that he can receive free medical care. His plan worked because he will see a doctor; however he won’t be incarcerated for a long time because he was convicted for larceny, not robbery. [...]

Loggers Te problem with logging is the part where the loggers have to control where the tree will fall. The trees could [...]
