    Do men lose weight more easily than women?

    A few ppl at work have been saying this is true. Their husbands have been wanting to lose weight and it seems to just drop off them very easily.

    Hikers Find 140 Buttered Shoes

    AS shoe collections go, the one found by a pair of Swedish hikers definitely had no place in any closet. A Swedish couple hunting on a remote mountain on Sunday in Sweden's far northern province of Jaemtland found 70 pairs of shoes, all filled with butter. "If we knew who had done this we...

    My Speakers are Speaking to Me! (Radio Interference)

    It's very irritating, but I am kind of getting used to picking up odd things on my speakers when I have them turned on. I get taxi drivers driving past and as they speak to the office, their voices come over my speakers, with "Alright mate" or "I'm just coming up to the traffic lights on..." It...
