Cats Of Ancient Egypt (and today)

Some people love cats. So much so that they surround themselves with cats. Others have this grudge against them for some unknown reason. Well I think I just found the reason.

In the time I have lived on this earth I have come across interesting facts. Mostly about these spooky felines. I have finally put it all together to form a theory. But first the facts.

In Egypt there are groups of pyramids postioned in a perfect arrow pointing to true north. But no compasses right? And what about dogs? Mans best friend hates cats. Not a coincedence. Now for the weird part the cats. For one these creatures existed in this barren country. And the were domesticated. They lived with humans. They were worshiped like gods. How could the most advanced civilisation of that time have bowed down to these inferior creatures. Two words... Mind Control.

Theory:
Cats were super-intelligent life forms who could control the humans' minds. But what happened????????

As time has past people have been educated and born equal. In the years of Ancient Egypt you were either royal, a magician or slaves. Most people of course were slaves. Thus no education. Thus no new ideas! As humans progressed the ideas and traditions never questioned were now chllenged. As traditions became weaker so did the cats until they were left with almost nothing.

Still sometimes when a cat looks at me or I think about them, I feel a chill pass through me. To me some people are born to change the things that should be. While some look on stroking their cats.

So maybe these decendents do have control (A cat does have 9 lives) of some people. So this theory as far fetched as it is does seem to fill in holes left empty by science and history. It's up to you what you think. But some how I get the feeling the cats agree with me.

Boyfriends ( read this if you are in grade 8/9)

Now that we are all in high school we must think that we are totally cool and mature but we are not. Yes as much as it hurts ( the truth is painful) it’s true and everyone should admit it. But regardless of this we all think that we need boy friends ( well the girls anyway and maybe some of the boys) 90% of the conversations that the girls in our grade have are centred around boys. And boy some hormone are really raging and kicking ass while others remain blatantly non-existent. The thing is that we as the generation of today should be striving toward a more gender accepting society but I’m getting off the topic. So boyfriends right what exactly is the point. Oh yes of course I don’t have first hand experience , does that make me naive ? I don’t think so. I happen to go to high school so I do observe at close quarters ( no I’m not doing a study of teenage life forms) anyway one question I do feel obliged to ask is how exactly is an exchange of saliva romantic? I have asked around (believe me) No one , not one soul has given me an answer. Let me go through the whole boyfriend process for you.
Step 1. Oh-my-god-he-looked-at-me stage
Step 2 Oh-my-god-he-asked-me-out stage
Step 3 oh-my-god-he-is-such-a-good-kisser stage
Step 4 oh-my-god-he-broke-up-with-me stage
Now I ask seriously what is the point???
Love someone kiss someone break up with someone first he distracts you with kisses then with tears. I totally think that you should wait till you are in university that when there will be a point. Well Maybe

The Weakest Link

OK. Pay close attention. Here is a very simple little test
comprised of four easy questions to determine the level of your intellect. Your replies must be spontaneous and immediate,
with no deliberating or wasting of time. And no cheating!
On your mark, get set, go...

1: You are competing in a race
and overtake the runner in second place. In which position are you now?
Answer: If you answered that you're now in first,
you're wrong! You overtook the second runner and took his place,
therefore you are now in second place. For the next question try not to be so dim.

2: If you overtake the last runner, what position are you now in?
Answer: If you answered second to last, you are wrong once again.
Think about it... How can you overtake the person who is last?
If you're behind them, they can't be last. You would have been last.
It would appear that thinking is not one of your strong points.
Anyway, here's another question to try. Don't take any notes or use a calculator, and remember, your replies must be instantaneous.

3: Take 1000. Add 40. Add another 1000. Add 30. 1000 again. Plus 20. Plus 1000. And plus 10. What is the total? Answer: 5000?
Wrong again! The correct answer is 4100.
Try again with a good calculator. Today is clearly not your day,
although you should manage to get the last question right...

4: Marie's father has five daughters:
1. Cha-cha 2. Cheche 3. Chichi 4. Chocho 5. ????
Question: What is the fifth daughter's name? Think quickly...you'll find the answer below..
Answer: Chuchu?
WRONG!
It's obviously Marie!
Read the question properly.

You are clearly the weakest link

The Scratch Up Stranger

Dear Scratch Up Stranger

I’m a 16 year old boy and confused about my sexuality. The thing is I’m more comfortable with girls than I am with guys, most of my friends are girls and we have so much in common. But when I’m around guys I don’t know what to say especially when they talk about girls. ( they talk about how sexy girls are etc.) Sometimes I catch myself checking out guys, I do have some guy friends and we’re cool it’s just that we have nothing in common. And there’s my parents, my parents are really religious Catholics and think being a homosexual is a sin. I’ve been out with girls but nothing turns into a serious relationship. My best friend thinks I might be gay but I’m just so confused.

Help me please

Gay or Straight?


Dear Gay or Straight

Firstly there is nothing wrong with being gay so don’t stress so much. Secondly It’s normal that you are questioning your sexuality, You’re at a stressful stage in your life. I think your main problem is that you concentrate on what homosexuals do. In your letter you talk about “signs” that mean you are homosexual. I think you should step back, relax and think about who you are and not what homosexuals are. Whatever you do make sure you tell your parents about this, They should be there for you when you need their support and approval. Decide who you are, who you want to be and why you want to be this person. Think about you. Also tell your friends about this and ask for their support and approval through the times you need their love approval and support. So chill and take it one step at a time.
All the best whatever you decide

The top 6 Celebs of 2005

1. Paris Hilton
Comment:
To me it takes a special talent to be as arrogant as her I mean writing a book about yourself ! Wow it isn’t like she has done any work to become famous or rich. She has just inherited money from some dead guy. Jeez! She is definitely not my favourite celebrity -5/10
She is a major slut. Have you heard? She video taped herself wearing a thong the wrong-way-round and put it on the Internet! (and NO, you freaks! It’s not on there anymore!!! Ewwww!) Still she did give some money to charity, whether for her own gain or what, I don’t know. 1/10

2. Chad Michael Murray
Comment:

Hello 10/10 is not enough more like 100000/10

3. Lindsay Lohan
Comment
I like her but I don’t know why celebrities are always unhappy about the way they look. Lindsay Lohan dyed her hair blond! Why ? I have no idea but I think the red suited her much better. But a change of hair colour is nothing compared to anorexia but I still love her songs 6/10
She is a truly talented singer! But there were rumours that she was / is anorexic. So? That doesn’t mean we have to hate her! 9/10 (-1 for bad image portrayed by anorexia)

4. Anne Hathaway
Comment:
I think she is one of the best teen stars. She isn’t arrogant or intimidating. She is like any of us really and that is the way it should be 8/10
Whatever! I just think she makes a cool Ella Enchanted and Princess of Genovia. Way to go, Mia! 9/10

5. Avril Lavigne
Comment:
She rocks! In addition to this she is really kind and thoughtful. Everyone of us can relate to at least one of her songs 9/10
I love all of her lyrics! Apparently she writes them from her own experiences with love, etc. That is so deep! I especially love “Happy Ending”! 10/10

6. Ashton Kutcher
Comment:
Him again! Why??? To me he is really mean. My prejudice has some thing to do with “punking” people and beards so whatever! 2./10
I actually stopped liking him once I found out about the Demi Moore thing. It’s disgusting! She’s like, more than 10 years older than him!!! But, he does deserve SOMETHING for those good looks! 3/10

Bird Flu

Summer is here and millions of birds are about to begin their annual migration from Northern Asia to nest and breed in the warmth of Africa, But this time the friendly flocks might bring with them a not-so-pleasant package. The deadly “Bird Flu”. Why not so pleasant? Well in 1918 the flu killed 50 million people– this time it could be far worse. The bird flu also a.k.a. H5N1 virus is a rampant virus that infects birds and the people who handle them. In humans this virus attacks the human’s lungs but the worst part is that it kills one out of every two people it attacks. Before the world thought it was a middle eastern problem that is until it started surfacing in Europe a few weeks ago. In turkey two thousand birds were diagnosed positive aswell as two parrots that arrived in Britain from South America, as were two swans on a lake in Croatia these diagnosed birds give form to scientists worst nightmares. The bird flu is spreading around the globe. But for now the virus is mainly confined to birds but – in something that sounds like the plot of a science fiction movie– the virus has the unique ability to cross over from birds to humans. Our continent Africa ,because of it’s problems with poverty and disease, will be the most vulnerable target. Co-ordinator for the bird and human flu (UN), David Nabarrow says it might be impossible to control the virus because of lack of expertise and funds. The Bird flu is a virus that we should all be aware of because it is hitting the globe so fast that we be conscious of ourselves and of all the other diseases and viruses going around. We can never be 100 % aware but together we can make it right

Star-spangled Gossip

Someone asked Sienna Miller what lessons she'd learned over the past year. Surprisingly she didn't say, "When I ask Jude if he's cheated on me, and he says no, and yet he's lying in a pile of lipstick, naked women, and condom wrappers, I probably shouldn't believe him." What she did say that the biggest lesson she's learned this year is "hold your cards close to your vest."
"I've got a huge mouth, especially when it comes to my business," the actress told Life magazine. "But I've realized that if you start talking about things, you open up a floodgate." Miller's on-again, off-again relationship with Jude Law may be on again after reports in recent weeks suggested the couple were back together. "I find it odd that people ask me things like, 'Why did you take (Jude Law) back?' I don't regret anything," she says.
Well it's good that she doesn't regret anything. You'd think she might regret hiring the nanny that was banging Jude on a regular basis. Because, in retrospect, that probably wasn't a good move.
Kanye West claimed that, during his time in China as a child, he often put on impromptu martial arts displays in the street for extra money.
"When I was little," he said, "my mom took a job over in China, and I used to do karate demonstrations for pennies. To be honest it was pretty entertaining for me, and I used to spend what I earned on ice cream. My mother was like, 'How can you ask for money from these poor Chinese people?' I guess I was a hustler in fifth grade, entertaining people."
Few things are as entertaining as the idea of a bunch of Chinese people throwing money at Kanye doing his best Bruce Lee imitation. Unless, instead of imitating Bruce Lee, he was imitating Carmen Miranda. And, instead of the performing on a street in China, he was performing in Bob's House of Transvestites in San Francisco. And, instead of throwing money, the audience was throwing butt plugs. Now that would be worthy of a Grammy.

For all the nay sayers out there who thought Tori Spelling's new fiancé was a tasteless oaf, here is irrefutable proof that he is, indeed, Prince Charming. Because is there really any more romantic way to express love than by shoving your hand down your girlfriend's pants and grabbing their ass? It almost makes me shed a tear, it's so sweet.
There are things the world needs more of - love, peace, masturbating penguins. One thing certainly not in that list is another Spears-Federline child. According to In Touch Weekly, however, Britney Spears is eager to give son Sean Preston a sibling — “the sooner the better.”
“Britney was advised to wait at least three months after her baby’s birth before trying to get pregnant again,” a friend said. “Now that that’s passed, she wants to try right away.” Spears is hoping for a girl this time around, and thinks another baby will help smooth out her relationship with Kevin Federline. “She is hoping another baby will strengthen her marriage to Kevin,” another friend said.
Ah yes, nothing like having another child in a desperate attempt to patch up a doomed relationship. That always works well. Another great idea would be for Britney to have sex with other men, take pictures, and post them on kevinlicksballs.com. Or she could wait until Kevin's asleep, cut off his testicles, and post pictures of them on kevinhasnoballs.com. He might not be happy about it, but he sure as hell wouldn't be tempted to cheat on her. Maybe.

Future Disasters: The Polar Ice Caps ( the new atlantis)

In the last 100 years the Earths temperature has increased by half a degree Celsius this is not a lot but our ecosystem is fragile so this affects the Earth already. In addition to this in 100 years the earths surface temperature will rise by another 2.5 degrees Celsius the sea level has increased by about 15 - 20 cm in these last 100 years. 70 % of the world’s fresh water and ice is Antarctica. By 2100 the sea would have risen by 95 cms, which basically means all sea front property will become part of Atlantis. This is if the polar ice caps keep deteriorating at 9% per a year. This disaster due mainly to the green house effect is also due to the indiscretion of the human race. The green house effect is not necessarily a bad thing in fact it is a good thing because without it the earths temperature would be about -14 degrees Celsius and unable to support life but if the amount of greenhouse gases over power the ozone in the atmosphere we will have dangerous Uv rays entering the atmosphere in addition to the problem of the melting polar ice caps. We have all heard it a million times but heed it this millionth and one time be careful about how much deodorant you are using and how much air pollution you are causing. Because it might end costing humanity its life and trust me this will make Catrina look like a spring breeze.

Girls prayer vs Boys prayer

THE GIRL'S PRAYER
Our Cash
Which art on plastic cards
Hallowed be thy name
Thy Michelle Herbelin watch
Thy Gucci bag
In Stuttafords
As it is in Edgars
Give us each day our Platinum Visa
And forgive us our overdraft
As we forgive those who stop our MasterCard
And lead us not into Foschini
And deliver us from Woolworths
For thine is the Levi's, the Dior and the Armani
For Chanel No.5 and Eternity
Amex.

THE BOY'S PRAYER
Our beer
Which art in bottles
Hallowed be thy booze
Thy will be drunk
At home as it is in the pub
Give us each day our daily beverage
And forgive us for drinking tea
As we forgive those who drink Marval, Fresca and Coke
And lead us not into churches
But deliver us from meetings
For mine is the bitter, the lager and the sex
Forever and ever

6. Tell the order taker a rival pizza place is on the other line and you're going with the lowest bidder.

8. Do not name the toppings you want. Rather, spell them out.

9. Change your accent every three seconds.

10. Ask what the order taker is wearing.

11. Order 52 pepperoni slices prepared in a fractal pattern as follows from an equation you are about to dictate. Ask if they need paper.

13. Have your pizza "shaken, not stirred."

14. Imitate the order taker's voice.

15. Belch directly into the mouthpiece; then tell your dog it should be ashamed.

16. Order two toppings, then say, "No, they'll start fighting."

18. Tell the order taker to tell the manager to tell his supervisor he's fired.

19. When they repeat your order, say "Again, with a little more OOMPH this time."

20. When they say "Will that be all?", snicker and say "We'll find out, won't we?"

The Indian Mom

Mom comes to visit her son Kumar for dinner...who lives with a girl roommate Sunita.
During the course of the meal, his mother couldn't help but notice how pretty Kumar's, roommate was.

She had long been suspicious of a relationship between the two, and this had only made her more curious.
Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between Kumar and his roommate than met the eye.

Reading his mom's thoughts, Kumar volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Sunita and I are just roommates."

About a week later, Sunita came to Kumar saying ,"Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the silver chutney jar. You don't suppose she took it, do you?"
"Well, I doubt it, but I'll email her, just to be sure."

So he sat down and wrote :

Dear Mother, I'm not saying that you 'did' take the chutney jar from my house, I'm not saying that you 'did not' take the chutney jar. But the fact remains that it has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.
Love, Kumar

Several days later, Kumar received an email from his Mother which read :

Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Sunita, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with Sunita. But the fact remains that if she was sleeping in her OWN bed, she would have found the chutney jar by now.
Love, Mom.

Ali G

Ali G's Sister is pregnant and has a car accident.
She falls into a deep coma. Asleep for nearly six months, she wakes up and sees that she is no longer pregnant. Frantically, she asks the doctor about her baby. The doctor replies, "Ma'am, you had twins! A boy and a girl. The babies are fine. Your brother came in and named them." The woman thinks to herself, "Oh no, not my brother... He is an idiot!"

Expecting the worst, she asks the doctor, "Well what's the girl's name?"
"Denise," the doctor says.

The new mother thinks, 'Wow, that's not a bad name! I guess I was wrong about my brother. I like Denise!'
Then she asks the doctor, "What's the boy's name?" The doctor replies, "Denephew."
