Meet Rapping Monk Mr. Happiness

Well, this is different. Kansho Tagai, also known as Mr. Happiness, has made quite the name for himself, fusing Buddhist chants, religious prayer and hip-hop beats. But where did this idea come from. Kansho told Reuters:

“When I listened to rap music for the first time, it was in English so I couldn’t understand a word. I realized that the same can be said for Buddhist sutras because most people can’t understand a word. And the thing is, listening to rap music makes you feel good even though it may be incomprehensible.”

Good point! The rapping monk is now taking those ill beats and dropping them all upon young Buddhists in Japan. Kansho has been rapping since 2006 and continues to use his mad hot skills to try to encourage young people to get involved in the faith. But what’s next after conquering the world of Buddhist hip-hop. Well tap dancing of course. Be on the look out for Mr. Happiness to mix together some rhythmic footwork and some hot fire in the not so distant future. Check out his lyrical skills after the jump. Continue »

Latest Threat to Homeland Security…Exploding Breasts

What will they think of next? British intelligence officers are saying that terrorist organizations have claimed that women are getting bombs put into their breast implants. Instead of stuffing a bomb in their shoes (a la Richard Reid) or putting some explosives down their underwear (thanks Umar Abdulmutallab), women are going under the knife to have an explosive rack put in their chest. In theory, I guess this was probably the next logical progression in terrorist activity. With full out body scanners slowly making their way into airports across the world, where else is a budding psychopath and terrorist going to put explosives?

And how would these TNT titties detonate. Well that seems to be the tricky part (and the one that will save all our lives), according to terrorism expert Larry C. Johnson:

“What we’ve seen is, at least, the al Qaeda explosives competence, while they are visionary with their devices, they’re not terribly competent with actually being able to get something to detonate.”

Well thank God for that.

Another Piece of Scientific Genius: The Heineken Robot

It’s so refreshing to know that great scientific minds are putting their efforts and talents to good use! This beer-delivering little gem was presented at the Kinetica Art Fair in London. A group at Middlesex University came up with this gadget that responds to a simple wave of a hand. To get the Heineken Bot to refill your empty cup, simply wave your hand over its sensor and put the your glorious beer chalice in its hand and watch as the robot fills her up! Once finished and you are happily satiated with the taste of cerveza, the robot continues to move around the room in a preprogrammed path.

Wow, this would make keg parties so much more interesting, but they might make keg stands slightly more dangerous.

Super Bowl 44 Was Kind of a Big Deal

The numbers are finally in and it turns out that Super Bowl XLIV was the most watched, highest rated television broadcast in U.S. history. In your face Hot Lips! The title was previously held by the series finale of M*A*S*H, which held on to the record for an impressive 27 years. How many people watched the Saints own the Colts? That would be 106.5 million! That was a held of a lot of people who saw Tracy Porter become a hero and even more who saw Hank Baskett become an utterly pathetic loser. Thank the lord he still has that hot Playboy wife to go back to.
