January 2008 Archives

Well according to a poll run by the Daily Star newspaper, readers voted the sexy glamour model Lucy Pinder as the sexiest page 3 babe. The gorgeous Lucy Pinder is a favorite of both the Daily Star and mens magazine Nuts. Most probably because of her 32G boobs that she constantly has out in both publications.

The much anticipated Sony PS3 and Microsoft Xbox 360 release dates for Grand Theft Auto IV have been confirmed by Rockstar Games as the 29th of April. The date is for a worldwide release and if I was a betting man I'd put money on Grand Theft Auto IV being one of the biggest games (if not the biggest) of 2008.

Well its looking more and more likely that 28 year old Middlesbrough and (occasionally when not injured) England defender Jonathan Woodgate could be moving to Tottenham after the teams agreed a fee. The move to the London club now hinges on personal terms, but I think Tottenham would be mad buying him as his injury record is a joke.

I hate 'Open Plan'.

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

Seriously what is it with all these property developers taking tiny one bedroom flats, knocking a wall down and turning the kitchen and living room into one 'open plan' space and pricing it like its a sophisticated loft apartment in New York? Well for profit obviously, but its getting on my nerves. Ok so rather than your living room being 11" by 12" when converted to open plan is now 15" by 12" or something like that, but open plan has some serious bad points which is why I hate it and every stupid television influenced property developer who goes and does it to a half decent flat.

The Dark Knight Trailer.

As boys films go this one should be an absolute blinder, The second Batman film staring Christian Bale called The Dark Knight and Heath Ledger as The Joker. As you may have seen all over the news today Heath Ledger was tragically found dead in his apartment today so were putting the video of The Dark Knight trailer here on Manblogo as a mark of respect.

Crash the Stock Market.

Ah all day I've been urging the stock market to crash and its just not going into free fall as I want lol. No doubt partly down to the Federal Reserve in the USA cutting interest rates by 0.75%!!!! Its not fair, someone please crash the bloody market.

So Manblogo only went live in January but I think its going pretty good so far, plenty of visitors and even some comments giving me and the mens blog some confidence that we're doing the right thing (I hope anyway lol). An awful lot of our visits have come from Blogcatalog, something I wasn't aware of before starting this big boys blog but I have to say its a great resource for us little small time bloggers.

Yup direct from Macworld 2008 is the unsurprising announcement that Apple will release the Macbook Air, and just look at the gadget it stupidly tiny and thin (high five). No doubt will be a great gadget for working on the train then (I'm rather tempted to buy one for writing my blogs on whilst commuting) and isn't too badly prices for an Apple notebook with prices starting from £1,199 (then again the Macbook Air isn't too cheap either).

Found these bed covers that'll be perfect for any bachelor pad or overgrown boys bedroom. As you can see from the pictures the quilt covers have some sexy ladies on them, although I think it'd look a bit strange taking a good looking girl (or fat an ugly one depending on how much you've had to drink) back to your place and having a picture of half naked women on your bed covers lol.

Sara Jean Underwood

Just a few pictures of the super sexy Playboy Playmate of 2007 Sara Jean Underwood. The sexy Playboy model was born on 26/03/84 in Scappoose, Oregon, USA and is (according to Wikipedia, whether thats a safe source or not is debatable) currently at Oregon State University. Who cares Sara Jean Underwood certainly is one sexy girl who originally appeared on the cover of Playboy magazine in October 2005, then in July 2006 becoming Playboy Playmate of the month before becoming Playboy Playmate of the year in 2007.

A man in Australia is set to have his arm amputated after it was partially severed by a SUV as the man waved at girls at a car wash! The man reported as the passenger in a pick up truck is said to be 20 years old. He and a friend were driving in the western Australian state of Bunbury when he spotted two girls in a car wash and decided to wave at them. The unlucky man didn't notice the oncoming SUV which subsequently partially ripped his arm off.

A week of mens blogging.

Manblogo my attempt at creating a blog for men with news on cars, sexy girls, football (soccer), boys gadgets, weird things etc has been up for a week now and isn't doing too bad for such a new blog (if I say so myself). Looking at the statistics we've had 715 pageviews from 353 visits, not I know this is a tiny amount of visitors in the whole scheme of things but I still think its looking good for the future.

Newcastle and Chelsea have been filling up the football news headlines all this week with the sacking of Sam Alladyce and his gossip over his replacement and the Signing of Nicolas Anelka from Bolton. So lets ignore both those news stories and look at what football fixtures we can look forward to this weekend.

Hilarious clip from Top Gear when the hosts Jeremy Clarkson, James may and Richard Hammond were laughing at the stupidly expensive Porsche Design smoking pipes. The video is really funny when Jeremy Clarkson tries to smoke the pipe back to front lol, maybe he should stick to testing cars and Porsche should stick to building them!


Idiot Hangs Himself.

A 23 year old man from Vancouver has proved the levels of weird idiocy in the world continue to grow after he managed to hang himself. The man who hasn't been named was filming a mock hanging with a friend in a local park. They thought he would be safe from injury as he was wearing a harness for the stunt but things went terribly wrong with the man ending up hanging by his neck!

Sexy actress Jessica Alba has said she can't understand why she gets so much male attention (yeah right) and thinks women with curves like Scarlett Johansson and Angelina Jolie are sexy. Ok I have agree with Jessica Alba about Scarlett Johansson, but she is gorgeous herself!

Fired for not smoking!

According to a report from Reuters a small German IT company has fired its three non smoking workers after they requested a smoking free work environment. The manager Thomas J apparently decided that they should be sacked believing they were threatening to disturb the peace of the IT company's office in Buesum. Germany is still one of the last remaining countries in Europe where your still allowed to smoke in offices although I'm sure it has some kind of law preventing people from being fired for not smoking!

Couldn't find the original article anywhere but I swear I read it a week ago and it said Playboys Car Of The Year 2008 is the Audi R8. God knows how playboy came to the conclusion that its the car of 2008 when its only just began but we'll let them off because of hot sexy girls and expensive fast sports cars go together perfectly. Not 100% sure why the Audi R8 as the Playboy car of the year though as it still looks a bit weird, I mean I know its nice but there is still something wrong with the shape of the R8 that stops it being gorgeous.

150 inch Panasonic TV!

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)
Now our sister site cheap televisions normally deal with all the home entertainment and television related news but this one is certainly a proper big boys toy. The television is being shown at this years CES 2008 and is a huge 150 inches!! Thats the equivalent of 9, 50 inch flat panel TVs stuck together and dwarfs the previous biggest a 108 inch TV made by Sharp. The only people who could house them or even afford the massive £50,000 price tag on the 150 inch Panasonic TV are probably footballers (the lucky gits lol, but what a gadget).

After just 8 months in the Newcastle United managers job Sam Allardyce and the clubs management have decided he should leave his position with immediate effect by mutual agreement. No doubt big Sam was probably pushed out rather than agreeing to the move. No news yet on who his replacement could be although rumors of Newcastle United hero Alan Shearer taking the managers job are rife although highly unlikely.

Sexy model and actress Olga Kurylenko is set to join Gemma Arterton as a Bond Girl in the next movie in the series Bond 22. Obviously no one knows in what capacity they will both star alongside Daniel Craig as the Bond 22 script is top secret. Who cares though Olga Kurylenko is one sexy girl and hopefully her acting talents will match.

More weird news. Two Czech billiards players got themselves literally stuck in a bit of trouble when they went in search of a billiards ball. They were playing a game in the Czech city of Karlovy Vary when one of the balls was sunk but never reappeared. So as anyone would they went in search of the ball by putting there hands down the pockets, which it turns out was a rather bad (if not funny) mistake.

Ok I admit it I can resist no longer and just have to post some pictures of the seriously gorgeous Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione. The Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione is not only beautiful to look at but one very rare car with production being limited to just 500. The Italian supercar is powered by a V8 engine producing around 444bhp which will propel the 8C Competizione from 0 to 60 in about 4.2 seconds and on to a top speed of 181. It will cost £111.000 here in the UK and ok so some German cars can hit these speeds at a fraction of the cost they can't do it in this much style.

This has been all over the press today being released at the CES 2008 electronics show today. Its called the Rovio and is made by robotics firm WowWee and has some cool little features like an omni-directional web cam so you can stalk people or something lol. Every boy dreams of owning a robot when they are little and as we grow into men we still want one and it appears home robotics are finally upon us with gadgets like this.

Striker Didier Drogba has cast doubts over his future at Chelsea by reiterating his desire to leave the London club. Drogba sites the departure of manager Jose Mourinho as a factor that has increased his desire to move onto another football club. His comments will probably be very unwelcome at Stamford Bridge although it may explain Chelsea's move to try and sign Bolton striker Nicholas Anelka.

General Motors is set to make its most powerful and fastest production car ever when the Corvette ZR1 hits showrooms. Initial reports say the ZR1 will produce a massive 611bhp from its V8 engine and should be able to smash the magic 200mph barrier. Now being an American car its not exactly pretty, has a plastic interior and body, but for those who want something to out drag a Ferrari, Porsche or Aston Martin but don't have the money here the perfect answer.

Just a couple of pictures of sexy Atonement and Pirates Of The Caribbean actress Keira Knightley. Certainly one of the lads favorites coming in at the top spot for the 100 sexiest women in FHM's annual poll in 2006 (I think it was 2006). Keira Knightley doesn't really do slutty pictures and being a family friendly website you won't be finding any half naked pictures of her here, although she still looks hot!

You just can't make this stuff up but according to a report in The People the Queen loves playing on Prince Williams Nintendo Wii. Proving that the games console isn't just for kids and even more impressive that Queen is actually slightly cool the report claims she saw William playing and thought it looked like great fun. The Queen playing bowling on the Nintendo Wii is hilariously funny if now some very weird news.

After all the football at the weekend there is some more news today with the fourth round FA Cup draw beening made Unfortunately Southend United didn't get drawn against one of the big Premiership side like I wanted. However Swansea of Havant & Waterlooville could get a trip to Liverpool if they manage to win there tie at Luton. And preivious giant killers Oldham and Huddersfield Town face each other.

Apparently 81 year old Playboy Hugh Hefner can't keep one of his 3 live in girlfriends happy and she has to resort to using a toy to keep herself satisfied. In the interview Playmate Kendra Wilkinson told OK! Magazine "I'm 22 and still have my whole sex life ahead of me. But all girls need a vibrator!" From the sounds of it the very sexy Kendra Wilkinson is jealous of one of the other Playmates who Hugh Hefner apparently spends most of his time with Holly Madison.

You'd be forgiven for thinking I've gone a bit Porsche crazy today, but I thought this phone was a proper big boys toy so its here. Now just to be clear the Porsche Design P9521 isn't made by Porsche its just designed by them (apparently) and is actually made by phone manufactured Sagem. It does look the part though with and aluminum and black glass finish although all this style does come at a price with the Porsche Design P9521 phone costing a hefty £800!

Our first weird news story is from Germany where news agency Reuters have been reporting that a thief used a flower pot to steal a 150,000 Euro 997 Porsche Turbo. The owner who lives in the German city of Bonn was reversing the sports car out of his garage when he heard a scrapping noise, so he got out of his car and saw a flower pot stuck behind the rear wheel. As he bent down to remove the flowerpot the ingenious thief pushed the Porsche owner out of the way, jumped behind the wheel and drove off with the silver supercar.

Most mens magazines and mens websites will use some crap article as an excuse to post half naked pictures of sexy supermodel's but not here. So we might upset the more intellectual readers on the internet who cares Gisele Bundchen is just sexy and as such here some pictures of her for your viewing pleasure. Obviously this blog is aimed towards adult men but we have to be responsible so there will be no nude pictures on Gisele Bundchen on here I'm afraid.

British car makers Aston Martin have unveiled there new race car the Vantage GT2 which is loosely based on the stunning V8 Vantage. Unfortunately its not a road going model and is purely for the race track and prices for the Vantage GT2 haven't been announced yet I'd imagine its bloody expensive. The boring stuff is that it will run on normal race fuel or E95 ethanol making the Aston Martin Vantage GT2 apparently greener! They shouldn't have bothered as we could do with the UK warming up a good few degrees. The good stuff is like all other Aston's its going to be a seriously good looking car although I do prefer the road going Vantage to the artists picture as the spoiler just looks wrong, yet unlike the idiots cruising in there Nova's it actually needs the rear wing for grip.

Cocaine snorting supermodel Kate Moss has apparently made a huge profit of £2.2 million according to a report in the Sun newspaper today. The sexy stunner made the money over the period when all the tabloids were slamming her for taking cocaine and dating drug junkie Pete Doherty (shows how alll press is good press). Every mans dream girl in a way, worth a fortune, looks sexy and out of her face most of the time so won't argue about whats on the television lol.

What makes the FA Cup special in football? The history? The tradition? The prestige? Nope its none of them its the giant killing by small teams on the premiership football clubs that we all love (unless you support the losing team obviously). This year is no exception after League One team Oldham knocked Everton out of the FA Cup. Everton are having a seriously good run of things this year in the premiership currently placed 6th just above Aston Villa on goal difference nut there dreams were dashed by Oldham with a strike by McFadden on the stroke of half time.

Welcome to manblogo which is very loosely a blog for men. No idea why I have stared the site but I write another blog and keep finding male orientated topics to write about that aren't appropriate for it but want to share it with a wider audience. Secondly there are so many female type blogs on the internet that a little piece of the internet being reserved for men and all things we like. So expect posts related to football, sexy women, fast cars, beer, mens fashion and all that kind of stuff.
