Forget the Flowers. Say it with Size 204 Shoes


Count on the Latin Americans. When outgoing socialist Ecuadoran president Jose Miguel aka "Juevos" Macamba immodestly remarked that his successor, Ramon Perez, had very big shoes to fill, he made sure his supporters were behind him. A pair of gigantic shoes were crafted and marched into the capital city by anti-Perez demonstrators shouting "Stamp out tyranny! Viva la Bolivarian Revolution".

If only peaceful protests in Canada smacked of this much glitter, I'm sure we'd be a far happier and prosperous nation. Alas, the crafting of size 204 shoes seems to be a bit of a lost art.

Goitre Bird


This is NOT an animal you want to meet down a dark alley. Supentius camelus to our friends in the scientific community, or "goitre bird" to the layman, this cock-a-too is sure to kick your ass at more than Chinese Checkers. Biiiitch!
