Wife Carrying Competition

Wife Carrying Competition is a sport in which male competitors race each other while carrying a female teammate. The objective is for the male to carry the female through a special obstacle track in the fastest time.

The sport was first introduced in Finland. It originated as a joke. It was supposed to replay the way how men courted women in bygone days by running to their village, picking them up, and carrying them off.

Carrying styles include piggyback, fireman's carry (over the shoulder), or Estonian-style (the wife hangs upside-down with her legs around the husband's shoulders, holding onto his waist).

Major wife-carrying competitions are held in Finland where the prize is the wife's weight in beer),in Monona, Wisconsin, and Marquette, Michigan.

The North American Wife Carrying Championships take place every year on Columbus Day Weekend in October at Sunday River Ski Resort in Newry, Maine.

Fancy a bit of wife carrying? Remember the Columbus Day Weekend and be in Maine to have some fun!

Woody Allen has his say too!

How witty!

Can Steve Jobs joke about sex!

Good one!

The Mother of All Prayer

I have to share this great story.

A voyaging ship was wrecked during a storm at sea and only two of the men on it were able to swim to a small, desert like island. The two survivors, not knowing what else to do, agree that they had no other recourse but to pray to God. However, to find out whose prayer was more powerful, they agreed to divide the territory between them and stay on opposite sides of the island.

The first thing they prayed for was food. The next morning, the first man saw a fruit-bearing tree on his side of the land, and! he was able to eat its fruit. The other man's parcel of land remained barren.

After a week, the first man was lonely and he decided to pray for a wife. The next day, there was a woman who swam to his side of the land.
On the other side of the island, there was nothing.

Soon the first man prayed for a house, clothes, more food. The next
day, like magic, all of these were given to him. However, the second man still had nothing.

Finally, the first man prayed for a ship, so that he and his wife could leave the island. In the morning, he found a ship docked at his side of the island. The first man boarded the ship with his wife and decided to leave the second man on the island. He considered the other man unworthy to receive God's blessings, since none of his prayers had been answered.

As the ship was about to leave, the first man heard a voice from heaven booming, "Why are you leaving your companion on the island?"
"My blessings are mine alone, since I was the one who prayed for them," the first man answered. "His prayers were all unanswered and so he does not deserve anything."

"You are mistaken!" the voice rebuked him. "He had only one prayer, which I answered. If not for that, you would not have received any of my blessings."

"Tell me," the first man asked the voice, "what did he pray for that I should owe him anything?"

"He prayed that all your prayers be answered."

For all we know, our blessings are not the fruits of our prayers alone, but those of another praying for us.

So my prayer to all my readers:

My prayer for you today is that all your prayers are answered. Be blessed.

"What you do for others is more important than what you do for yourself"

I hope you will direct all your friends here to this website to share this mother of all prayers!

The Changing Faces in the Mirror

Michael Jackson is a man of many faces. For a man in the mirror, he certainly has plenty of faces to use for almost 51 years of his life.

He embarked on face changing after a purported Pepsi advertisement shooting went wrong.
This led him to even experiment with skin bleaching and ultimately to develop skin cancer.Plastic surgery, as you can see, transformed Michael and he finally became an oddity and curiosity up to his dying days. The picture of the peeling nose sent shock-waves throughout the world, apparently the result of a botched-up job.




Like him or hate him;curiosity or not;Michael will always be a legend.
