The Aardvark’s Tongue

While we do like having a blog and hope that people will actually stop by and read it, the whole social media scene is starting to feel a bit force-fed for our tastes. Social media should be about what feels normal and natural (because it’s social after all). But now with businesses and marketers spending big bucks to pry their way in and people going out of their way to socialize themselves online it’s getting to be a bit much. That’s why we were thrilled with this new service: Anti-SocialMedia.

Not only do they have a dead bird as their mascot (which is right up our alley) the service they provide accomplishes everything we could hope a social media site would do in only one or two clicks. Wander on over and . You will surely thank us.

This Friday, May16th we can proudly celebrate Endangered Species Day and all that
we have to done to create an environment where animals and rare species are cherished and protected. Amazingly the U.S. government yesterday declared the polar bear and endangered species and acknowledged that climate change is indeed destroying its habitat.

So, have a beer, read up and donate a buck or two to celebrate.

You have to be “tough down under” to make a bottle opener from your scrotum. Apparently Australians are tough.

Ripped straight from the loins of a mature Kangaroo, the manufacturer of this fine article assures us that the Kangaroo-Scrotum Bottle-Opener is “the perfect bar accessory for anyone who likes to impress their mates with their toys.”

I’m not too sure how comfortable I am in using the words “impress their mates with their toys” and “scrotum” in the same sentence. - Bob

According to this report by the BBC if you happen to be in Kano Nigeria, why go to the store when you can get everything from tupperware to dried monkey skulls direct from your local hawker.

The pharmacist pictured here will eagerly provide you with any range of dried animal parts:

• Vulture Heads - he’s got em.
• Dried Elephant Dung - he advises that you feed it to your breast feeding babies (we have no idea why).
• And or favorite: Dried-Aardvark-Tail which is apparently a cure to madness.

It makes sense. The Aardvark’s tail is the cure to the madness of the Aardvark’s Tongue.
