Turn the volume up loud, it is difficult to hear. It is a car advertisement from New Zealand . When they finished filming the ad, the people who made it noticed a ghostly white mist moving along the side of the car, and an eerie sound. The ad was never put on TV because of the unexplained ghostly phenomenon. About halfway, as the car goes past the trees, look carefully and you will see the white mist crossing in front of the car then following it along the road.

And I like them, so I'm sharing....<br> <br> <b>New Rule:</b> Stop giving me that pop-up ad for classmates.com! There's a reason you don't talk to people for 25 years. Because you don't particularly like them! Besides, I already know what the captain of the football team is doing these days -- mowing my lawn.<br> <br> <b>New Rule:</b> Don't eat anything that's served to you out a window unless you're a seagull. People are acting all shocked that a human finger was found in a bowl of Wendy's chili. Hey, it cost less than a dollar. What did you expect it to contain? Lobster?<br> <br> <b>New Rule:</b> Stop saying that teenage boys who have sex with their hot, blonde teach ers are permanently damaged. I have a better description for these kids: "Lucky bastards."<br> <br> <b>New Rule:</b> If you need to shave and you still collect baseball cards, you're a dope. If you're a kid, the cards are keepsakes of your idols. If you're a grown man, they're pictures of men.<br> <br> <b>New Rule:</b> Ladies, leave your eyebrows alone. Here's how much men care about your eyebrows: Do you have two of them? Okay, we're done.<br> <br> <b>New Rule:</b> There's no such thing as flavored water. There's a whole aisle of this crap at the supermarket, water, but without that watery taste. Sorry, but flavored water is called a soft drink. You want flavored water? Pour some scotch over ice and let it melt. That's your flavored water.<br> <br> <b>New Rule:</b> Stop screwing with old people. Target is introducing a redesigned pill bottle that's square, with a bigger label. And the top is now the bottom. And by the time grandpa figures out how to open it, his ass will be in the morgue. Congratulations, Target, you just solved the Social Security crisis .<br> <br> <b>New Rule:</b> Just because your tattoo has Chinese characters in it doesn't make you spiritual. It's right above the crack of your ass. And it translates to "beef with broccoli." The last time you did anything spiri tual, you were praying to God you weren't pregnant. You're not spiritual. You're just high.<br> <br> <b>New Rule:</b> I don't need a bigger mega M&Ms. If I'm extra hungry for M&Ms, I'll go nuts and eat two.<br> <br> <b>New Rule:</b> If you're going to insist on making movies based on crappy, old television shows, then you have to give everyone in the Cineplex a remote so we can see what's playing on the other screens. Let's remember the reason something was a television show in the first place is that the idea wasn't good enough to be a movie.<br> <br> <b>New Rule:</b> No more gift registries. You know, it used to be just for weddings. Now it's for babies and new homes and graduations from rehab. Picking out the stuff you want and having other people buy it for you isn't gift giving, it's the white people version of looting.<br> <br> <b>New Rule:</b> And this one is long overdue: No more bathroom attendants. After I zip up, some guy is offering me a towel and a mint like I just had sex with George Michael. I can't even tell if he's supposed to be there, or just some freak with a fetish. I don't want to be on your web cam, dude. I just want to wash my hands.<br> <br> <b>New Rule:</b> When I ask how old your toddler is, I don't need to hear "27 months." "He's two" will do just fine. He's not a cheese. And I didn't really care in the first place.<br> <br> <b>New Rule:</b> If you ever hope to be a credible adult and want a job that pays better than minimum wage, then for God's sake don't pierce or tattoo every available piece of flesh. If so, then plan your future around saying, "Do you want fries with that?"<br> <br> <font face="impact" size="5" color="#FF0000">NOVEMBER - MADRID, SPAIN</font><font face="arial"> <br> <br> <div align="justify">It seems only fitting that I post my November journal, since December is more than halfway gone.<br> <br> November was quite a month. To start with, someone had a birthday. <i>Another birthday!</i> I'm sure it was only a few weeks ago that my last birthday rolled around, but still, the calendar doesn't lie. At this rate, I'll be sixty-five before long...<br> <br> <center><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/imagesspain5/birthday1.jpg"></center><br> All sorts of strange people turned up to help me celebrate my special day. Unfortunately (no idea why) almost all the photographs from that day turned out blurry. But here's a couple of the better ones...<br> <br> <center><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/imagesspain5/birthday_ena.jpg"> <img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/imagesspain5/birthday_candy.jpg"></center><br> <br> <center><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/imagesspain5/birthday_guille.jpg"> <img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/imagesspain5/birthday_roos.jpg"></center><br> <br> But it hasn't been all parties and face pulling. Well, I guess it mostly has been. But Maria and I did manage to get away for a weekend to Granada. 300 photos later, and several kilos heavier, we returned to Madrid. You see, Granada is not only the most photogenic city in Spain, but it is also famed for its <i>tapas</i>. Tapas is the free bar snack that you get when you order a drink. Unheard of in Australia, but something of a tradition (possibly even a law) in Spain. In Madrid, your free tapas can be a humble bowl of potato crisps or a dish of olives. But if you know where to go, you could score a small serve of <i>paella</i>, or a few tasty <i>croquettas</i>.<br> <br> But Granada is a different story altogether. Honestly, I don't know how these places make any money. You pay 1.50 Euros for a small beer, and it comes with a plate of prawns or a bowl of meatballs, or just about anything you can imagine. But the last bar we visited just before returning really took the cake... two beers (3 Euros) came with two ham bagels, a pile of pasta salad and a generous handful of potato crisps.<br> <br> <center><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/imagesspain5/granada_tapas.jpg"></center><br> <br> Thank God I don't live there, or I'd have to get my clothes custom made!<br> <br> Anyway, about the 300 photos. Most of them were taken in the Alhambra. If you aren't familiar with the Alhambra, I suggest you do a google search for it, cause it's 2.00am as I write this, and I just don't have time to describe it. But I've posted the best few photos on a separate page. Check it out <a href="http://www.thesavagefiles.com/granada.htm"><b>here</b></a>.<br> <br> And while on the subject of eating (we were still talking about eating, weren't we?) have you ever seen anything like this????<br> <br> <center><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/imagesspain5/egg.jpg"></center><br> <br> It's an egg. One egg. And with the sprinkling of potatoes, peppers and <i>chorizo</i>, it fed ten of us. No doubt, you've figured that it didn't come from a chicken.<br> <br> All this talk about eating is making me terribly tired. As I've been at the computer for fifteen hours today, I'm going to give myself the rest of the night off and catch a few hours of much needed sleep.<br> <p><p> <!--End Column 2--> <!--Start Column 3--> <td body bgcolor="#FFA500" align="justify" valign="top" colspan="6" width="180"> <iframe src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=thesavagfiles-20&o=1&p=8&l=as1&asins=B001G5ZTPY&fc1=000000&IS2=1&lt1=_blank&lc1=0000FF&bc1=000000&bg1=FFFFFF&f=ifr" style="width:120px;height:240px;" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0"></iframe> <br> <iframe src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=thesavagfiles-20&o=1&p=8&l=as1&asins=B001G5ZTQS&fc1=000000&IS2=1&lt1=_blank&lc1=0000FF&bc1=000000&bg1=FFFFFF&f=ifr" style="width:120px;height:240px;" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0"></iframe><br> <a href="http://www.thesavagefiles.com/aluche_sunsets.htm" TARGET="_BLANK"><b><small>MADRID FROM MY WINDOW</small></b></a> <br><br> <div align="center"> <a href="http://www.teva.com/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=6670" TARGET="_BLANK"><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/imagesspain5/teva1.jpg" align="center" border="0" width="170" height="112" name="slide"></a> <script> <!-- //variable that will increment through the images var step=1 function slideit(){ //if browser does not support the image object, exit. if (!document.images) return document.images.slide.src=eval("image"+step+".src") if (step<9) step++ else step=1 //call function "slideit()" every 2.5 seconds setTimeout("slideit()",2500) } slideit() //--> </script> <br><br> <a href="http://www.pac-safe.com"TARGET="_blank"><img src="http://www.pac-safe.com/www/images/pacsafe_logo.jpg" width="150" border="0" alt="street smart security gear"></a> <br> <a href="http://www.dmh.aust.com/camp_mats.htm" TARGET="_BLANK"><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/images/dmhlogo.gif" width="150" border="0"></a> <br> <a href="http://www.amg-outdoor.co.uk/vango" TARGET="_BLANK"><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/images/vangologo.gif" width="150" border="0"></a> <br> <a href="http://www.caribee.com" TARGET="_BLANK"><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/images/caribeelogo.gif" width="150" border="0"></a> <br> <a href="http://www.camelbak.com" TARGET="_BLANK"><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/images/camelbaklogo.gif" width="150" border="0"></a> <br> <a href="http://www.energizer-eu.com" TARGET="_BLANK"><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/imagesspain5/energizer.jpg" width="150" border="0"></a> <br> <a href="http://www.timex.com" TARGET="BLANK"><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/images/timexexpedition.jpg" border="0" width="150"></a> <br> <a href="http://www.leatherman.com/products/tools/xe6/default.asp" TARGET="_BLANK"><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/images/leatherman.gif" width="150" border="0"></a> <br> <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com" TARGET="_BLANK"><img src="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/homepage_graffix/lp_logo.gif" border="0"></a> <br> <a href="http://www.worldnomads.com/index.aspx?affiliate=TSF"><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/wn/wnman.jpg" align="center" border="0"></a> <p> <div align="justify"> <font color="#00008B" face="Impact, Helvetica, Sans Serif" size="+1">NEW FUNNY STUFF!</font> <br> <br> Clever advertising?

Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me the hell alone.<p> 2. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a broken fan belt and leaky tire.<p> 3. It's always darkest before dawn. So if you're going to steal your neighbour's newspaper, that's the time to do it.<p> 4. Don't be irreplaceable. If you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted.<p> 5. Always remember that you're unique. Just like everyone else.<p> 6. Never test the depth of the water with both feet.<p> 7. If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a couple of car payments.<p> 8. Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.<p> 9. If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.<p> 10. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.<p> 11. If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.<p> 12. If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.<p> 13. Some days you're the bug; some days you're the windshield.<p> 14. Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.<p> 15. The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.<p> 16. A closed mouth gathers no foot.<p> 17. Duct tape is like 'The Force'. It has a light side and a dark side, and it holds the universe together.<p> 18. There are two theories to arguing with women. Neither one works.<p> 19. Generally speaking, you aren't learning much when your lips are moving.<p> 20. Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.<p> 21. Never miss a good chance to shut up.<p> 22. Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.<p> <div align="center"><a onclick="window.open('http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/imagesspain5/phil_europhil.jpg','javascript_7','width=390,height=660,top=20,left=20,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizeable=no');"><img src="http://www.cairnsunlimited.com/thesavagefiles/imagesspain5/phil_europhil_small.jpg" width="170" border="0" alt=""></a></div><br> <br> <b>You're An <i>EXTREME</i> Redneck When.....</b><p> 1.
