Bathroom break saves neighbors

Neighbors of Renjis Empati, 57, of Borneo are very thankful, and some might say relieved, that he heeded natures call.

When Renjis walked outside to use his toilet he noticed that his kitchen was in the process of being swallowed by a sinkhole. He immediately called out to his neighbors and saved them just in the nick of time.

Said a grateful neighbor: “If it were not for him, most of us would be dead by now.” Approximately 100 neighbors were saved by Renjis Empati’s call to get out of their homes.

Angry wife was really fired up

A spurned Chinese wife from the Eastern province of Shandong China was so upset with her husband that she set more than 400 cell phones on fire!

The couple co-owned a successful retail business and when her husband walked out on their marriage she retaliated by destroying their stock of mobile phones valued at more than $42,000 US. After she set fire to the phones she walked out of the house.

Luckily neighbors saw smoke coming from the house and called the firefighters who extinguished the blaze quickly.

The 37 year old woman has been arrested for arson.

That scarf makes her look older!

Last week my wife found the Petsmart bandanna that we were given when we had our Labrador Retriever puppy groomed in January.

I guess she wanted to see if Midnight would tolerate the bandanna on her head like a scarf. To our surprise the scarf stayed on for about an hour before Midnight had either had enough of was sick of us laughing at her.

Doesn’t she look totally pathetic? She reminds me of the elderly women in our neighborhood (mostly Macedonians and Greek) who often wear scarves on their heads.

Here’s another shot:

Poor thing. We won’t do that to her again. Promise.

This weeks theme is Important

This weeks Photo hunter theme is important and I’m having a hard time deciding just what to post.

There are so many things that are important to me.

I’d post a photo of my wife, but she hates having her photo taken so I don’t have many to chose from and uh she’d probably kill me for posting a photo of her anyway!

Family, friends and music are important to me. I’ve always been a very social person. Talkative my wife would say. So it’s easy for me to have a good time just about anywhere I go because I talk to anyone.

Chris and Sofie guitar lesson

I think I’ve met just about all of our neighbors. Not just the ones next door either. I work three blocks from our home and I think I know just about all the neighbors within that three block range.

The photo above is of our neighbor Sofie. I was playing guitar in our backyard one day and she was out in her garden. Just for fun I wanted to try to give Sofie a lesson but it didn’t go so well. The photos’ great though isn’t it? Sofie rocks!
