things i learned today.

i spent my entire day today online. i do leave from time to time to eat, play with kiann and laugh with my sibs, but when i am home i usually spend my time in front of my pc.

i've got a number of interesting findings today after spending more than 18 hours of going online:

1. obamamania

- you are not going to believe a lot of barack obama's merchandise being sold on the net today! there's obama toilet paper, obama bottled water, obama barrettes, and... catch this: obama dildo. the "Head of State" dildo is available in two colors: democratic blue and presidential gold. how's that for a "Change?" =)

2. cosmic latte

- beige is the color of the universe, according to a team of astronomers from john hopkins university. the heximal RGB value for cosmic latte is #FFF8E7.

3. angel lust

- you can still have an erection once dead. a death erection is a post-mortem erection which occurs when a male individual dies vertically or face-down with the cadaver remaining in this position. during life, the pumping of blood by the heart ensures a relatively even distribution around the blood vessels of the human body. Once this mechanism has ended, only the force of gravity acts upon the blood. as with any mass, the blood settles at the lowest point of the body and causes edema or swelling to occur; the discoloration caused by this is called lividity.

4. pricey charice

- and so i was browsing ticketnet website bec i've been contemplating since last week on how will i manage to be in cebu and watch boyz ii men at the same time. i was kinda surprised to find out that tickets for charice pempengco's concert is actually more expensive than that of boyz ii men! that girl's voice is indeed powerful and i actually liked her, but sure not more than boyz ii men. maybe it has something to do with the group's sponsor or something??

5. sex in the middle ages

- anything other than the common “missionary position,” was considered unnatural and a sin, according to the Church. the woman on top position, or entering her from the rear (sex a tergo) were not favored because they interfered with the natural order of male-female roles. anal and oral sex were sins because they could only be practiced for pleasure, not procreation, which for the purists was the only purpose of sex.

- lesbianism is a sin according to the book of gommorah. sodomy was punishable by death, which could involve mutilation, burning at the stake, hanging, and, in the case of priests caught in the act, being hung in a suspended cage until they starved to death.

- the Church actually approved of prostitution. ironically, the practice was regarded as a way of preventing adultery and homosexuality on a larger scale, so it was viewed a necessary evil.

6. brittany flickinger is paris' bff no more

- i thought that when paris hilton launched a new season of the reality show, she's still good friends with brit and that calling brit a 'hungry tiger' is just part of the intro. but after reading brit's blogs, paris apparently dumped her and the next day a casting for "paris hilton's my new bff" season 2 began. i liked brit so much bec she's funny and pretty and sings really well. but i am surprised to know that she actually thought that she'd be bestfriends for long with paris. that blondie has no brains and is so fake for heavens sake. brit: you deserve so much better than that. just be thankful to paris for letting you win the show, but other than that? you have so much more to offer than be paris' personal assistant. hmp!

7. hot guys and nice guys are two different people

- they can never be one and the same. 'nuff said.
