Minuet: the future Twitter worth at least $1 billion
I'm the sort of guy who has all these great ideas but am unable to do anything with them, which is the reason my apartment is not next to Bill Gates mansion (or Hugh Hefner's for that matter). Some clever kids came up with Facebook , Twitter and Youtube and now take their baths in French champagne on their private 767 jet. Well I have this great idea which I will reveal in a minute, and if someone out there d...
confessions in a bottle
1:The Beginning I was sitting innocently on the beach, minding my own business when a huge wave slung this bottle at me.

My name is unimportant, you can call me Marion, no wait make that Rhiannon. If I get my choice it may as well be something sexy. I li...

It all started with a nightmare brought on by an overdose of chocolate, beer and late night horror movies. The dream started off normally enough. Getting up, eating breakfast, commuting to work.

Was it the fact that the doorman's skin was a bright green, or that our secretary was finding it difficult to hide her middle leg. Only a ...

Adventures in a Japanese Loo
A foreigner's first experience with a Japanese toilet could easily be compared with a teenagers first experience with love. You meet this gorgeous girl during the school recess but you have no idea what to do about it. No-one has given you an instructions manual. The same can be said about Japanese washlets - right you really don't want to call it a toilet any more than you'd call a Jaguar E-Type Roaster a car - t...

Yom Kippur Tweets of Atonement: the fast way to deal with a fast

Who needs a prayer book when you have Twitter?

—

Dear GD, I have been bad but promise to be be good so thanks for forgiving me (retweeted from last year)

Dear GD of the Juice. I am not actually Jewish but your one day fast sure beats the Ramadan. Can we switch?

My friend told me it's OK to eat on Yom Kippur as long as it's done in the bathroom. What are your feelings about that?

If I pray next to Lady Gaga and accidentally eat part of her dress, does that mean I have broken the fast?

Whose idea was it to have Yom Kippur fall on the weekend? I mean DA!

GD: Yes I know McDonald's is fast food but that doesn't mean you can eat  it on Yom Kippur
