Slightly bending the rules as obviously these aren't photos I took myself but thought I'd share them anyway. Its photos of the holocaust, some are quite graphic so potentially NSFW.

No.4 . The White House watching the FAI Cup semi final. By the look on Hilary Clintons face when the picture is taken,Sligo have just taken the lead.

i thought this would be as good a place as any to post these... what happens when you go out to start your car in -44 weather to have it nice and toasty for your drive to work and then close the car door on your way back in for breakfast? This is what happens... its so flippin cold your sunroof shatters from the door closing!

-44? Apples?

Though at that temperature Celsius and Fahrenheit start to converge though I prefer the term "BALTIC"

This is what happened when a contract company in Egypt was asked to stencil 'Diesel Fuel' and 'No Smoking' in Arabic on the side of one of their fuel tankers.
