Hey there actually is a special day for watermelon in Taiwan. lol...its cool. I just found out about it the other day. OK...here is a few pictures from the 2006 Melon Day in Taiwan.
Melon Day is the day where a collection of melon art is displayed. Pictures and words are engraved/carved onto surface of the melon. The 1st thing that captures your attention when you 1st walk into the hall will be this cute little heart shaped melon with the letter 'love' on it. I think the melon are actually grown in a heart shaped container to make it that way.
When it comes to carving, there will always be a pig in it. People just love to carve pig. Ah watever...there you go...pig in a melon.
Here's a few melon trying to be cute with its carving. I have been wondering, what happens to the melon next? Chop it open and serve it to your friends? after all that hard work on the melon? or you just keep it on display till it rot?
Nice art...imagine how long this will take...rose on a melon. Could it be...its done by a machine?
The first cubic melon is founded in Japan. Farmers of the Zentsuji region found a way to grow cubic watermelons, by growing the fruits in glass boxes and letting them naturally assume the shape of the receptacle. The square shape supposedly makes the melons easier to stack and store, but the square watermelons are often more than double the price of normal ones. Pyramid shaped watermelons have also been developed.
A few random pictures from the exhibition...
So what else can people do with melon?
EAT THEM!!!

sex doll in doggy style
We've all been there – finding that our dog is just a little too keen to be friendly with our leg.
But now a French designer has come up what he describes as the first dog sex toy in a bid to end canine frustration.
The Hotdolls are plastic playmates specifically shaped so their hips feel like a female dog.
They are covered with a 1cm-thick technogel skin to keep them soft to the touch. The dolls are supplied in two colours, black and white, and there is a choice of two sizes.

special coffin for everyone
Coffin is something that everyone will be needing no matter who you are (choi choi choi...needing but not so soon. Havent had enough of life yet). These guys has come up with creative designs that will suit everyone's favourite. what is yours?
1. Transportation series coffin

Cant affort a brand new Subaru? Well...if you love it soooo much, why not get a Subaru coffin and you can have it for eternity. No road tax needed.
OR a little red sports car coffin for all the car lovers out there.
OR u might prefer to rest in luxury, try the white Mercedes coffin.
OR get your own private jet coffin. who say dead people cant fly?

2. Food and drink series coffin

If cars and jet are not your type, try out this food and drink series. I'm sure there is something for everyone. What's your favourite food/fruits?
Pineapple for you?
If you like it hot and spicy, pick the chilli coffin.
Or keep yourself cool and fresh with a bottle of coke. The problem is you will be inside.

3. Animal series coffin

Fishy fish coffin would be suitable for fish lover. I think its the best selling coffin in the series. You dont need to buy it for yourselve, it can be for your pet fish which died of too much secondary smoke. Or for your pet cat which love fish so much. Turkey anyone? Or a credit for superiority, get an eagle coffin.

I have no idea how much it cost where to get it. Interested? Maybe you should just DIY it at home. Give it a try.

you dare to wear this swimsuit?

Do you DARE to wear this homemade swimsuit? It is dirt cheap, recyclable, most importantly it has unlimited choice of colours and design.
If you are someone wanting to prove you are special, then this is the way. Appear once a week in the public swimming pool and you will immediately become the talk of the day for many many months. How more special could you be?
Therefore, here I introduce to you the economic swimsuit.... the 'Plastic Bag' Swimsuit.
I had a great idea...while you are being sexy and special in that swimsuit, you could choose plastic bag from those hypermarkets or other big brand out there and they may even pay you for the advertisement you bring. I would suggest going for Carrefour, Giant, Makro or Tesco first as their plactic bag are easier to get.
Happy swimming then.

do you dare to play?
Fancy a roller coaster ride? I was surfing the net recently and found this amazing Half Pipe Coaster. I'm sure this is something which could give you the biggest adrenaline rush u've ever experience.
Half Pipe is a steel roller coaster located at Elitch Gardens (Amusement Park) in Denver, Colorado. I wonder if we could get this in Genting Highland one day. I bet Uncle Lim (Lim Goh Tong) wouldnt mind installing a small amusement roller coaster for everyone to enjoy.
This roller coaster takes advantage of Denver’s proximity to nearby ski resorts that cater to snowboarders. Riders are placed in one of two cars on the train which is made to resemble a giant snowboard. Each car is a free-spinning circle that holds eight people. The track is essentially a giant, upright U and trains are loaded at the bottom of the U. LIM engines accelerate the train up both sides of the track. A typical ride consists of approximately five to six cycles of the train travelling through the U. [via]
