The Piano House


Those music lovers will surely like the architecture of this house. The escalator of the building is inside the violin. =)

Filling the interior of the house with different kinds of musical instrumers will be cooler though.



This unique piano house was built recently in An Hui Province, China. Inside of the violin is the escalator to the building. The building displays various city plans and development prospects in an effort to draw interest into the recently developed area.

Hot Cold Mug - knows the temperature of your drinks


Having ever experienced of having a feeling of a burned tongue when drinking your morning chocolate or coffee? With this mug, you are now going to drink your morning beverage in its right temperature. It changes color as the temperature changes.

You can now enjoy your morning drink without worrying if it's too hot. =)

At plain sight it is a standard black mug as they come a dime a dozen and in big white letters it say COLD. Nothing fancy, but once you add the hot beverage of your choice, the mug changes color and is turning white and in big black letters it states: HOT

Nifty eh? Do we need to explain more? Nah, we didn't think so, we'll just leave it to the wonders of heat sensitive pigment… Dishwasher safe of course!

3 Chess Players in 1 Board


To be able to play chess, it is needed to have two players. But not with this one, three players are needed to be able to play in this new challenging board game.

Although the shape of the board is different, the same regular chess pieces are used in this game. Same rules and movement of every piece. Each player initially starts with 16 pieces.

The pawn moves as usual straight forward and takes enemy pieces one square diagonally forward.


In the center the pawn can attack three squares diagonally.


The bishop is limited to diagonal movement.


The rook moves as always. Nothing new.


The knight is also no different from a standard knight.


Nothing new for the queen as well.


One peculiar feature: the diagonal in the center of the board.


The game is great, but three people are needed.


General rules:
1. The players take turns clockwise. The right of the first move is determined randomly.
2. The player who makes first check-mate wins.
3. The pawns move straight forward. Accordingly half of the pawns goes to the right, and the other half goes to the left.

The main characteristic of the game: if two players don't like the third, he is doomed.
The funny part of the game: the two players must compete for the privilege to check-mate the third.

The Real Super Mario


I loved Mario of Super Mario Bros. fame eversince the dawn of Nintendo's Famicom in the 1980s. He entertained me so much that until now, I still don't get tired playing the old school Mario game or the New Super Mario Bros game on the Nintendo DS.

I find him cute and huggable, until I saw this picture... a scary Mario!

This is what Mario will look like if he is real. =)

Lovingly Yours, Coffee



Are you having difficulties of finding the right gift for your special someone (friends, family members and others) that love to drink anything with caffeine? Or in short a coffee addict person?

This is the best gift for them! When it is full, it is just a simple coffee mug/cup but when emptied a heart shape bottom will be revealed. It is also a way of coffee saying that it loves you too. =)

Click image to enlarge

North Americans are usually turned off by that last bit of wet, dark grinds found at the bottom of a cup of coffee. While most Europeans treat the last sip of coffee as an extra end treat of concentrated goodness. Designer Sunman Kwon has found a new reason to drink your coffee to the last drop. By incorporating a cleverly concealed symbolic message, your journey to the bottom of your cup becomes a journey into the universal language of love. Acting like a slow strip tease of affection, this message of love is only fully revealed after you have consumed your entire cup of caffeine, giving you new carnal ideas to channel your fresh burst of energy.

The Singing Birthday Cake


If you want to give cake as a gift but no time in baking, "Sammy, the Singing Birthday Cake" is the best present to bring in a party. =)

Although this cake is not edible, it will certainly entertain the celebrant and guests in greeting the celebrant with its sing and dance number.

Look it's Mick Jagger stuck in a cake!!!!

No even better yet! It's the one and only Sammy the Singing Birthday Cake!!! Let him entertain as he swings and sings to the classic "Celebration." And now for the topper, Sammy the Singing Birthday Cake's candles light up and his lips move.

Due to his rubber like body Sammy moves fluid to the music (takes 3 double AA batteries, included).

No need to bake when there's Sammy the Singing Birthday Cake!!

27 year old Chinese with feet facing backwards


This 27 year old lady refused to be called disable even if she was born with her feet facing backwards. She said that she can even run faster than some of her friends with normal feet.

She is surely a brave woman. Her family is so proud to have her. She does not mind if her feet are not like the normal and even excel in everything she does.

Foreigners... deeply inlove with Filipinas


It's very common to see couples (married or not) of different nationalities these days. Most of which are Filipina women finding their foreign love from dating websites. I'm not surprised since we Filipinas are charming, caring, thoughtful, understanding and most especially beautiful

These couples have different stories to tell on how they meet and fallen in love with each other. If not from dating websites, they most probably met or introduced by a common friend or a family member. Some of them may also meet via old ways like long range penpals.

At this point, internet is the best and fastest way to meet your partner. Emails and chats would instantly bridge the gap of two people. But not all of them will end in a "happily ever after chapter". For the past weeks, I have been following the stories of two British guys who fell in love with a Filipina.

The first guy fathered a child with his Filipina girlfriend. He never abandoned the his obligations but both of them were thrown into jail and were charged with adultery. His girlfriend has a previous marriage and as you know, there is no divorce law in the Philippines. Click here to read more about this story.

The next story is bizarre. The British guy named Tim Cumper got his girlfriend pregnant. But instead of fulfilling his obligations, he abandoned the girl and created a world of lies only he would understand. He accused the girl, her friends, the hospital and its doctors, the real estate where his girlfriend works, and actress Chin-Chin Gutierrez of conspiring just to extort P80,000+ from him.

Timothy Ellis Cumper created a "blockade" of blogs and videos blatantly accusing the people I mentioned earlier. And literally everyone who disagrees with his sentiments. He calls his blogs as Hospital and Tierra Maria Estates Scam. But people in proper mind call this the Tierra Maria Estates Scam Hoax.

I encourage you all to read the entire story. Click here to read all about the Hospital Scam Hoax. You can also download Tim Cumper's archived website in PDF format by clicking this link.

I am also appealing to all of you to tell your friends about Tim Cumper and his lies by blogging or showing them these websites:

- Captain's Log: hospitalscams.blogspot.com = Severe Case of Psychosis
- Filipina Images: Conned by a Filipina
- Fil Am Forum Report: Philippine Hospital Scam - Exposed As A Hoax!
- Philippine Real Estate Broker: Tierra Maria Estates Scam EXPOSED as Hoax

Please, spread these sites to your friends and family. Thank you very much.
