Meet Stevie Starr, Professional Regurgitator

2008-05-02T12:34:10+02:00

and he freaks me out in so many ways, its worrying.

Clicky!

Stevie Starr is a performance artist who refers to himself as a "professional regurgitator". His act consists of swallowing various items (lightbulbs, billiard balls, dry sugar, goldfish) and regurgitating them. He has never described exactly how this is done, and the implausibility of some of his regurgitations have led some to believe that he is an illusionist.

According to his live act and official biography,Starr grew up in Glasgow, Scotland in a children's home. He claims to have developed his talent in order to hide money. Starr claims to be the world's only "professional regurgitator", though similar acts do exist in modern and historical performance related to the geek show tradition.

Norwegian humor

2008-03-05T22:37:55+01:00

I am not gonna try to explain it, I just like it, but there may be a chanse of me beeing biased^^

Anyways, the two Funniest norwegian contemporary humor groups today, in my opinion, is RaskeMenn and Ylvis.

Here are a few reasons why. I am truly sorry its in norwegian, just trust me, its good stuff.

RaskeMenn og Verdenshistorien på 5 minutter

And, as a treat for english readers, RaskeMenns 5 minutes World History (same as above link, with english subtitles, not made by me)

RaskeMenn Pornosangen (ikke bra for jobb, men æ lo så tåran rant )

And Ylvis:

Pepperkakebakesangen (Dnort, I think you may like this one)

Reven På Hønsejakt

So, the facts are:

RaskeMenn consists of

Anders Hoff, Calle Hellevang-Larsen and Oivind Rafto. Their debut was Sept.12 in 2003. They have been touring all over the country with their show, aptly named «The Fast Show», from 2003 to today. Their last performance with this show is due in May this year in Oslo. And in 09 they will have a brand new stageshow.

Ylvis is made up of two brothers,

Baard and Vegard Ylvisaaker who both are younger than me ... but despite that, they are both old men in showbiz in Norway as they started in 2000.^^ They allready have had their own radio show, tv series and stageshows.

If you ever get a chanse, I highly recommend that you go see a show of either group, they are both hysterical, witty, and musical if you like that as well.

I smell a conspiracy....

I swear, I must be mad to live up here this time of the year. I mean, you'd think I'd know by now that January and February up here equals SICKNESS! but nooo, not me. Moron that I am.

First in early February I get a cold, then suddenly I have to fly to Tromso and back, 3 hour each way on a cold plane wich makes for a lovely looong time to get sick.

So then I get back home after repeatedly take-offs and landings and lots of turbulence and dogs barking and a teenaged kid vomiting all the way from Vadso to tromso, and no sooner do I put my foot on the airport here then I get pneumonia.

Naturally, daft as I am, I let a week go by before I finally can crawl to the doctor, and I drag the boyfriend and the kid along too as they are also sick.

Turns out they have the flu. So, after we all get drugged up on meds and we finally get well again, Heike today suddenly have an eye infection, so now we have to get him on meds for that, and we forgot to ask the doctor if its contagious... >_<

I may be a tad paranoid, or it may just be my meds talking, but I'm getting the feeling someone is out to get me, my boyfriend and our son.

So, stay tuned for more health fun fact stories with Auntie Cru

...now where is that bottle of Solvipect Comp. again.

New GLASSES!

2008-02-19T14:28:36+01:00

So, I've always had glasses, since, like, forever. (or at least so close to forever that it doesn't make any difference)

But due to certain family affairs, i had to go to Tromso a little while back, and while I was there I took the time to buy new glasses, cause my old pair I had for 6 years or so. And frankly thats really not good for your eyes. I think you have to change glasses like once a year or so really, so, I was WAAY overdue, for a new pair.

first, a comparison.

this is me, in my old pair, wich is now history.

and this is me in my New pair!

TADAAAAH!

So, comments is much appreciated please. Wich ones do you prefer? ( I hope its not the old ones as I smashed them into oblivion a few hours ago with a hammer)

a lesson on judging people

Ok so I found this test online, and I certainly learned my lesson, so I decided now its your turn.^^

Just remember; No cheating.

Question 1:
If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already, three who were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she had syphilis, would you recommend that she have an abortion?

Read the next question before looking at the response for this one.

Question 2:
It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three candidates.

Candidate A.

Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologist. He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day.

Candidate B.

He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.

Candidate C
He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife. Which of these candidates would be your choice? Decide first... no peeking, then scroll down for the response.

Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Candidate B is Winston Churchill.
Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.

And, by the way, on your answer to the abortion question: If you said YES, you just killed Beethoven.

Certainly makes you think doesn't it?

I haven't posted in ages...

2008-01-22T11:16:28+01:00

cause I've been busy with work, life and all that jazz^^

So, here is whats been going on lately:

We bought Skiis for Heike!

Naturally he loves them, and he is actually very very good at it. (beats me how cause neither me or dad has even got skiis, so it's not like we can teach him lol) Anyways, we went up to the ski Stadion this past saturday with his cousin Julianne who also got her first pair of skiis for xmas, and here are the results^^

Ready to go

you guys coming soon...?

a spot of competition ^^

Hard work this...

DOWNHIIIILL!!!

important to sit down in a slope^^

...but even then you might fall^^

No need to worry though, he just got right back up again and is right as rain.

I expect this all means I'll have to go and buy my own skiis soon, so we can glide along together^^

Apart from work and drawing, this is mostly what we do these days if you're wondering.

Want a sip of me?
