Atlantis Found?

Artist Depiction Of What Atlantis May Look Like

Earlier this week, a research team situated in southern Spain stumbled upon evidence that has lead them to believe that they may have found the lost city of Atlantis. Whether you believe in it or not, the tale of Atlantis brings with it the most intriguing story of both the rise and fall of a civilisation.

Atlantis was believed to be the hub of technology in its prime, a vast metropolis that was rich in culture, wealth and science, all of which were not enough for it to evade its inevitable downfall. All in all, legend dictates that Atlantis may have been home to the most advanced civilisation for around 10,000 years after its own inception.

Its story carries a truth, once seen as fiction, that bears all the more symmetry and, as a consequence, relevance to that of recent events in Japan. I say it bears symmetry to this week’s events in Asia simply because Atlantis itself is believed to have succumbed to the sea in around 1500BC.

The team, led by university professor, Richard Freund, have utilised the most hi-tech deep-ground radar, digital mapping, and underwater technology available to them to survey the Dona Ana Park just to the north of Spain’s south coast. The results that they received revealed cities bearing architectural resemblance to that suspected of Atlantis.

It’s theorised that the few Atlanteans that were able to escape the city in time attempted to build similar cities further afield, in Spain. Whether the city exists or not, the latest area that scientists suspect Atlantis of being buried beneath has been rife with tsunamis since records began.

Only time will tell if this latest discovery bears any substance at all.

"I Have Had It With These Motherfucking Snakes On This Motherfucking Plane"

Holy Crap, She Has No Eyelids

If you don’t like Snakes on a Plane, you have no hope in life – not my words, but the words of Samuel Jackson, probably. Anyway, onto my first story of the weird and wonderful. A snake died this week, after attempting to nom on a model’s fake breast.

Self-described "beautiful", Israeli model, Orit Fox, was bitten on the breast by a snake that was being used as a prop in her photoshoot after she attempted to lick its face. Straightaway, I think there’s a lesson to be learnt for all of us in this – snakes love boobs too.

Remarkably, the snake died from silicone poisoning. The model, however, only received what looked like a flat tyre, but on her chest. I really do sympathise with the snake. I mean, not only did it die after having its face licked, but it also had to pose with a model that looks like a deflated Pamela Anderson with no eyelids.

Tick, Tick, Boom  
Now, if in times of severe crisis, say if you suspected a package of containing a bomb for example, who would you trust? A bomb squad, naturally. This is exactly what workers at a post office in Russia thought earlier in the week. 

Six-Inch Torpedo Of Death

The bomb squad arrived, expecting to see the most harrowing of sites when they finally opened the package. However, the layers of the suspected bomb-containing package unravelled to reveal a vibrating sex toy, which had just so happened to turn itself on.

As harrowing as that may indeed be, I’m no expert, but I don’t think vibrators have a built-in function to explode. I know what you’re thinking, ‘what an anti-climax’, which leads to me thinking, ‘that’s what she said’. Sorry, I couldn’t resist. Seriously though, thankfully no one was hurt and the vibrator presumably faces a prison sentence for attempted murder.
