		<description><![CDATA[Here we will take a look at 10 "sexy" female cartoon characters. Well, sexy in a hand-drawn, cartoonish kind of way! Just for fun of course.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Batgirl</h3>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2009/11/19/batgirl_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Female counterpart of Batman, all of the skills but with a lot more beauty. She first showed up way back in 1961.</p>
<h3>Betty Boop</h3>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2009/11/19/bettyboop_2.jpg" alt="" width="305" height="621" /></p>
<p>The good thing about cartoons is that no matter how old they get they still look as good as they did when they were younger. Betty Boop has been about since the 1930&#8217;s.</p>
<h3>Betty Rubble</h3>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2009/11/19/bettyrubble_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Long suffering wife of Barney, who is the long suffering friend of Fred Flinstone, there is just something about Betty Rubble that trumps Wilma every single time.</p>
<h3>Cheetara</h3>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2009/11/19/cheetaratwirlin_1.jpg" alt="" width="283" height="204" /></p>
<p>There was only two good reasons to watch Thundercats. In fact, scratch that, there was only one good reason to watch it, and that was Cheetara.</p>
<h3>Daphne</h3>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2009/11/19/scoobydootv10_1.jpg" alt="" width="245" height="666" /></p>
<p>Daphne played the eye-candy to Velma&#8217;s genius in Scooby Doo. The creators were obviously onto something with that idea.</p>
<h3>Elastigirl</h3>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2009/11/19/elastigirl_1.jpg" alt="" width="314" height="354" /></p>
<p>From the film The Incredibles, Elastigirl&#8217;s real name is Helen Parr. She may be able to stretch quite a lot but is that really why she made it onto this list?</p>
<h3>Jessica Rabbit</h3>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2009/11/19/jessicarabbitl_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>From the film Who Framed Roger Rabbit, how on earth a dopey rabbit could ever manage to marry one as hot as Jessica is beyond anyone&#8217;s imagination. Well apart from the imagination of the one who created it.</p>
<h3>Lois Griffin</h3>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2009/11/19/loisgriffinjustforfunbyfleetingmind040403_1.jpg" alt="" width="323" height="339" /></p>
<p>Husband Peter may be nothing short of a big fat slob, and daughter Meg might well have been hit with the ugly stick once or twice but it is Lois Griffin that provides the &#8216;eye-candy&#8217; in Family Guy.</p>
<h3>Smurfette</h3>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2009/11/19/smurfette_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>She may be blue, she may be a smurf and she may be the creation of someones imagination but there is still something rather alluring about smurfette.</p>
<h3>Tinker Bell</h3>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2009/11/19/tinkerbellpixie1_1.jpg" alt="" width="267" height="352" /></p>
<p>Her voice may sound like a tinkling bell and you might be able to fly is she sprinkles magic dust over you but watch out for her jealous streak. Still, as cartoon characters go&#8230;!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Just a wee collection of jokes for your perusal, with a Scottish tilt. If you can't quite work out some of these jokes, it might be the Scottish pronouciation you aren't getting. Anyroads, hope you enjoy.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There was once a Scotsman who was arrested for indecent exposure. Continually wiping the perspiration from ones brow with their kilt will do that!</p>
<p><strong>During a Partick Thistle V Clyde game (the real Glasgow derby!) one of the players, who was standing in the middle of a defensive wall at a free-kick, took a right belter of a hit right into his crotch; the pain knocked him out. The Partick Thistle defender awoke in the hospital the next morning and was still in a lot of pain. He asked the doctor how bad it was, and if he would be able to play again. The doctor said that the player would be able to play again but only if they had a woman&#8217;s team!</strong></p>
<p>A tourist was staying in a Glasgow hotel and phoned the reception at 3am one night just to tell them &#8220;I&#8217;ve gotta leak in the sink&#8221;. The receptionist told them just to go ahead with it!</p>
<p><strong>A very attractive policewoman was sitting in the police car when she saw another car swerving all over the road. She quickly signalled for the car to pull over to the side of the road. The man driving the other car pulled over and proceeded to step out the vehicle. He was clearly very drunk, he fell down to the ground but quickly picked himself up. &#8220;You&#8217;re staggering&#8221; said the policewoman. The man replied: &#8220;Aye, cheers, you&#8217;re no so bad yersel!&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>One Scotsman went to have his suit dry-cleaned. The shop assistant told the man that it would cost him &pound;20 to have it cleaned. The Scotsman thought that was far too expensive so he went to the charity shop next door and donated the suit. A few days later, the man returned to the charity shop to find his suit hadn&#8217;t been sold yet. It had been cleaned though and he bought it for &pound;5.</p>
<p><strong>A wee old woman from Glasgow was shaking the hand of the minister after the weekly Sunday service. She said: &#8220;Ah&#8217;ve gotta tell ye, minister. Every sermon ye preach is better than the next one!&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>The various stages of Scottish Woman:</p>
<p>At 18, you give her whisky, tell her a story and take her to bed.<br />At 28, you don&#8217;t need to give her whisky or tell her a story just to take her to bed.<br />At 38, she tells you a story and buys you a whisky and then takes you to bed.<br />At 48, you drink too much whisky and then tell her a story to avoid going to bed.<br />At 58, you take the whisky and stay in bed just to avoid her story.<br />At 68, if you take her to bed that would be a story!<br />At 78, what bed? what story? but the whisky still tastes good.</p>
<p><strong>A Glaswegian woman went to the dentists and made herself comfortable in the chair.<br />&#8220;Comfy?&#8221; asked the dentist.<br />&#8220;Govan&#8221; replied the woman.</strong></p>
<p>Q: What do you call a Scottish dwarf who falls into a cement mixer?<br />A: A wee hard man!<br />Q: If there are two coos in a field in Scotland, which one is on holiday?<br />A: The one with the wee calf!<br />Q: What did Dracula get when he came to Scotland?<br />A: A bat in the mouth!<br />Q: What do you call a Scotsman who takes a small size shoe?<br />A: Wee Shooey!<br />Q: What do you call a Scotsman who takes a small size shoe and doesn&#8217;t have a dog?<br />A: Wee Shooey Douglas!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[These all did not happen to me but they did happen to people I know. Hope you enjoy.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Talking to someone that has a lazy eye- this is hard for me because the whole time they are talking I really don&rsquo;t hear anything they are saying. All I can do is keep asking myself is &ldquo;I wonder if they can see me with both eyes?&rdquo;&nbsp; If you&rsquo;ve ever been in this situation, you know what I am talking about. The only thing that makes this worse is a severely lazy eye of what I like to call &ldquo;the coma eye&rdquo;. I am sorry but this nightmare started when I was in the eighth grade and my math teacher had a &ldquo;coma eye&rdquo;. She would call on me in class but she wouldn&rsquo;t point or anything and then she would get angry when I would ask &ldquo;are you asking me&rdquo;? I am sorry but really was this my fault?</p>
<p>2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; You are at your new girl/ boyfriends place when all of the sudden Mother Nature calls. Now if it were for number one this would not be a problem. This was the wrong day to have the entire Chinese buffet for lunch and you knew this but we like to live dangerously, don&rsquo;t we?</p>
<p>3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Talking behind someone&rsquo;s back and they show up right when you are finishing up- this one has gotten me at least once a month since I turned twenty. I just don&rsquo;t get it, I mean these people would never even come within ten feet of me normally but the moment I say one bad thing about them they want to be my BFF. Now you could probably play it off if the crowd you were with had any idea of how to act normal but they decide to go all silent and act about as weird as a human being possibly could. If you&rsquo;ve been in this situation you know the rest of the story.</p>
<p>4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; You get caught watching naughty internet &ldquo;photos/videos&rdquo; by your wife- this creates a silence like no other. You could actually hear an ant pass gas during this silence. You scramble in your head to find any excuse what so ever but you can&rsquo;t come up with anything.&nbsp; Then it hits you &ldquo;these darn pop ups, I don&rsquo;t know why they won&rsquo;t stop&rdquo; just as she notices the timer that says that fifteen minutes have elapsed. Guess who&rsquo;s sleeping on the couch again.</p>
<p>5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;You are driving and someone pulls out in front of you- now you are very fired up! You begin cursing and riding their bumper. You are yelling and screaming while flipping them the bird. You see them shrug in the mirror as if to say &ldquo;what did I do&rdquo;? Then your girlfriend in the passenger seat has had enough of your rant. She looks at you and says &ldquo;why did you run that stop sign&rdquo;? At this time you look in the mirror and realize that you are an idiot!</p>
<p>6.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; You are taking a shower for a dinner party at your place that begins at six- it is almost five and you are ahead of schedule for once. You finish up in the bathroom and as you always do you walk to your bedroom in the nude. You look and you have no underwear so you walk down stairs to the laundry room. As you reach the bottom of the stairs (still in your birthday suit because your wife thinks it&#8217;s cute)and turn the corner into the kitchen your guest have arrived early, so you think. Your mother in law comes out of the kitchen and gets the money shot (She doesn&#8217;t find it as cute as your spouse does, shocking I know). You run back to your room and begin to thumb through the yellow pages for a therapist. Your significant other comes up to remind you about your conversation two days prior that the time had changed to five. Then she asks (as if your life weren&rsquo;t already as bad as it could get) &ldquo;did you pick up my parents thirtieth anniversary present&rdquo;? &nbsp;&ldquo;Oops&rdquo;.</p>
<p>7.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; You show up at your girlfriend&rsquo;s house &ndash; and there is another guy walking out the door with her. You come face to face with her. There is a long silence, it is broken by her voice &ldquo;oh, didn&rsquo;t you check your Face book&rdquo;? Are you kidding me? Face book? Really? Is it even legal to break up with someone over Face book? Oh by the way, next time please send a private message, I really don&rsquo;t need the entire Face book nation knowing I have E. D.</p>
<p>8.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; You get so drunk that you crap you pants. Enough said.</p>
<p>9.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; You are a shoo in for an award. It is time for the announcement. You begin to loosen up and prepare for you big acceptance speech. You have been waiting for what seems to be a month. It is time, the announcement comes and you stand up and begin walking to the isle when you see another person walking onto the stage. Everyone is looking at you like you are an idiot (when five seconds ago they thought you won too) so you continue walking to the exit and get to the front of the line at the after party.</p>
<p>10.&nbsp;&nbsp; You&rsquo;re at your girlfriend&rsquo;s house when you receive divorce papers- this probably wouldn&rsquo;t be that awkward if your girlfriend knew you were married in the first place.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[I'm just an ordinary guy but I have wishes too. Life would be so much easier if Santa could help me by fulfilling some of my wishes.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&nbsp;Hey, I&#8217;m just an ordinary guy and life doesn&#8217;t always go as smooth as they show it on television. I have a job and I have a family and I have kids too. What else could you ask for? The house is warm and we have enough to eat. When we go shopping, we always go for special offers, pick three and pay two or we pick the large family packs. We go shopping every Friday evening after work, like so many other people. I hate the full supermarkets. You can&#8217;t make step without being pushed or run over by a pram or shopping trolley. Nobody takes any pity on you &#8211; they just carry on.</p>
<p><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Colourful_shopping_carts.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2009/11/13/colourfulshoppingcarts_1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>Image via <a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Colourful_shopping_carts.jpg" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a></p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;Shopping also takes too long in most cases. If I go out and look for something, I&#8217;ll only leave with a shopping list in my hands, and work my way through the shelves systematically. That&#8217;s why I find it so annoying that they constantly move the goods around. Once I had got my bearings and knew where to find the rice &#8211; I bet next time I go there, they&#8217;ll have moved around everything, and where the rice was, is now the tea. But that doesn&#8217;t mean that where the tea once was, is now the rice. That would be too easy. They want us to solve the riddle by travelling through the whole supermarket.</p>
<p><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:2ndAvenueSubwayStationBottleneck.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2009/11/13/2ndavenuesubwaystationbottleneck_1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>Image via <a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:2ndAvenueSubwayStationBottleneck.jpg" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a></p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;But that would be awkward, that would take me too long. I get flustered when it takes too long. It&#8217;s like the bright lights in the supermarket ring an alarm bell in my brain and I can see it flashing in front of my eyes: &#8220;Get out of here!&#8221; That&#8217;s why I rather leave before I&#8217;ve found what I was looking for, if they hide it from me. So, this would be my list wishes for Santa, if it comes to Christmas. These are the things I&#8217;d like to change if it wasn&#8217;t for getting real presents from Santa, like an X-Box or a digital satellite dish:</p>
<ol>
<li>Please, Santa, make that the supermarkets close at seven in the evening &#8211; I can&#8217;t see a reason why I should go shopping in the middle of the night. But my wife finds it cool and shops her socks off, and then the credit card is finished.</li>
<li>Please, Santa, tell them in the supermarkets, that they don&#8217;t need to hide the goods from me. If I can&#8217;t find them, I have to leave without buying them. And that doesn&#8217;t mean good business for them, does it?</li>
<li>Please, Santa, introduce bouncers at the entrance to supermarkets around the rush hour time. The number of people inside needs to be limited. I don&#8217;t want to be pushed around and knocked over and have to step around children on the ground because I&#8217;m afraid to hurt them.</li>
<li>Leave all the goods in the same place all year round and give me a plan, where I can see what I can find in which place, that would half my shopping time, and I would have more spare time for myself.</li>
<li>Please prohibit the use of prams, children on scooters and roller shoes since they are a risk in the market, and I don&#8217;t want to be knocked down. There could be playing area where the toddlers and bigger kids could play together and were safe and keeping busy.</li>
<li>Please get rid of these automated check-out terminals. They are no automates, they can&#8217;t even once work properly alone and without having an assistant on your side helping the poor thing to understand what it is supposed to do.&nbsp;</li>
</ol>
<p>&nbsp;Oh yes, and there would be another one, although there is no more space on the wish list: Pleas give me my own supermarket, where I can freely shop on my own whenever I feel like it. But that would only be necessary if you can&#8217;t fulfil my other wishes.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Having trawled through the British media this morning I was amazed how many animals get themselves into a "bit of a pickle"!!  These are just a few of them picked at random!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/11/05/shoebill-duck-3_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Now this picture seems to indicate that our little ducky friend has got himself into hot water and is about to become duck soup for the shoebill, especially&nbsp;bearing in mind the 4 ft tall shoebill is a renowned predator and not impartial to a bit of wildfowl for dinner, but read on!</p>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/11/05/shoebill-duck-2_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Having grabbed the duck, the shoebill merely moved him to one side &#8230;</p>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/11/05/shoebill-duck-1_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>and dropped the poor little blighter onto his back.&nbsp; As you&nbsp;can see it ruffled&nbsp;a few feathers but, according to onlookers, the duck appeared none the worse for wear!</p>
<p>The shoebill is a threatened&nbsp;species as it&#8217;s believed there are only about 5,000 or so remaining, and it tends to be found in large swamps in eastern Africa where it can grow to more than 5 ft tall and have a wingspan of up to 10 ft &#8211; quite an imposing figure I would imagine if you&#8217;re a duck trying to get out its way!.&nbsp; It was only discovered in the 19th century when some&nbsp;shoebill skins were brought to Europe.&nbsp; They mainly feed on fish, frogs, reptiles (including baby crocs), insects and small mammals.</p>
<p>Our next little furry friend is completely&nbsp;barking!</p>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/11/05/mad-dog_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Meet dizzy Daisy the Staffordshire terrier &#8211; no, she&#8217;s not headless but the mad mutt managed to get her head stuck in a tumble dryer vent!&nbsp; She was trapped for over an hour with her head in the 6 inch hole in the wall of the utility room in her home in Cambridgeshire.&nbsp; Unfortunately, as she struggled to set herself free her head became swollen making it impossible for her owners to free her so they had to call the local fire brigade who chipped away the wall around her neck and removed some bricks.</p>
<p>Naturally the terrified terrier didn&#8217;t make life easy for her rescuers so the firemen administered oxygen to her to keep her as calm as possible.&nbsp; After about half an hour she was free with nothing worse than a few scratches.&nbsp; She was subsequently checked over by a vet who gave her a clean bill of health &#8211; no pun intended&#8230; utility room?&nbsp; Laundry??&nbsp; And just for those of you who are interested in seeing Daisy in a slightly more dignified manner, here she is.</p>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/11/05/mad-dog-2_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>The next animal is bound to have all you animal fanatics out there going aaahhh!!&nbsp; Meet Baldrick the bald hedgehog &#8211; oh bless!!!</p>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/11/05/baby-hedgehog_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>This little chap was found in a garden at Great Yarmouth in my home county of Norfolk and is now being looked after&nbsp;by a wildlife rescue centre.&nbsp; He&#8217;s about four months old and, as you can imagine, is a bit of a rarity.&nbsp; This wrinkly little critter would normally have around 500 prickles to protect him from predators and to help keep him warm but he&#8217;s got absolutely zilch!</p>
<p>In order to keep him alive his &#8216;foster parents&#8217; clean him using an antiseptic scrub and then rub baby oil into his skin in the hope that it&#8217;ll soften enough to promote the growth of spikes.&nbsp; Apparently Baldrick is partial to mealworms and has been known to go to the edge of his cage and put his paw up to take in&nbsp;the odd&nbsp;mealy morsel!!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s thought that Baldrick was probablyy abandoned by his mother but it seems he&#8217;s doing just fine now &#8230; He was a mere 240 grams when he arrived at his new home but he&#8217;s now reached a hefty 800 grams!</p>
<p>Now we meet Meadow, who&#8217;s half the calf she used to be!</p>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/11/05/calf_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>This little Black Angus calf was found in a paddock having lost her hooves and part of her ears due to severe frostbite, but help was at hand via Nancy Dickenson, a rancher who bought the calf and then proceeded to spend thousands of dollars on surgery for her.&nbsp;&nbsp;Part of her&nbsp;back legs were amputated back in August and vets and students from Colorado State Uni have just fitted her with prosthetic legs and hooves.&nbsp; Apparently Meadow&nbsp;is now enjoying her life frollicking around in the fields&nbsp;&#8230; and before you ask, no she&#8217;s not going to end up on the barbecue but is very much a family pet in the Dickenson household!!</p>
<p>And last but not least &#8211; meet the stag who decided to spend a night at a Five Star Hotel.</p>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2009/11/05/stag-night_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>This handsome looking guy held the security team at bay when it gatecrashed into the lobby of the Five Star hotel in northern China.&nbsp; It&#8217;s thought that, due to it being the rutting season, the deer saw himself in the glass and charged the reflection.&nbsp; Having found himself in the lobby of the hotel he became a bit&nbsp;twitchy &#8211; whether it was due to the strange surroundings or the price of the&nbsp;B&amp;B I don&#8217;t know, but he&nbsp;started to run amok.&nbsp; Eventually wildlife experts sedated him, took him to a zoo close by to get him checked out and then returned him to the wild.&nbsp; Certainly puts a new&nbsp;slant on the term &#8217;stag do&#8217;!!!!</p>
