Plasma Televisions, PS3 and Xbox 360's Eat Power.

Wed, 04 Jun 2008 21:48:29 +0000

An Australian survey has recently revealed that plasma televisions, Sony's Playstation 3 and Microsoft's Xbox 360 are seriously power hungry gadgets. In the survey they said people should really turn off there gadgets at the power source and not leave them on standby as they still consume a fair amount of electricity. Now I'm far from the greenest person on the planet and nor do I intend on becoming one lol, but given the current financial climate I actually think I might take note and do this with my plasma television and Xbox 360 just to see if my electricity bill actually goes down at all.

Seriously the weird stories we keep finding for this section of the mens blog are getting more and more obscure with time. Today on Reuters its being reported about a man in Taiwan climbing into his dead girlfriends morgue freezer!

Porsche Toaster (Siemens TT911P2).

Mon, 26 May 2008 02:46:36 +0000

Right its all been pretty quiet on the man blog and just to quickly fill you in I'm buying my first flat, well funky bachelor pad is what it will be. So anyway I had a £25 voucher for Waitrose from work so thought ah I can go get myself a new cheap toaster for my new kitchen (I haven't moved in yet by the way). When I was looking I saw a really cool looking toaster and thought ah that'll do, then I noticed it was a Porsche toaster and for £110 its not cheap lol. Yes as well as smoking pipes there are Porsche toasters who would have guessed!

Sexy girl Sarah Michelle Gellar star of cult television show Buffy The Vampire Slayer has been baring all for charity Coalition of Skin Diseases in America. Ok thats a right mouth full but at least we get a sexy naked picture of Sarah Michelle Gellar to make up for it. The naked pictures (see below) we auctioned off online to raise cash and awareness for the charity.

Audi Clubsport Images Caught On Camera.

Sun, 18 May 2008 19:00:00 +0000

The picture below is of the new 300 bhp Audi TT Clubsport which was recent taken in Germany. I have to say it looks a lot nicer and more aggressive than the previous roadster Audi TT which looked like a bubble car lol. The engine is the same 2.0 liter turbocharged motor that powers the Audi S3 and is of course 4 wheel drive.

Portsmouth win FA Cup.

Sat, 17 May 2008 20:07:17 +0000

Portsmouth have beaten Cardiff City by a single 37th minute goal from Nigerian striker Kanu to claim the FA Cup at Wembley. The game shown on BBC television wasn't a classic by any stretch of the imagination although Portsmouth and Harry Redknapp won't care having managed to get there hands on some silverware this season which is there first since 1939.

Amphion Xenon Floor Standing Loudspeakers.

Sun, 27 Apr 2008 23:06:23 +0000

I can't claim to know much about the world of HiFi and audio, but I do know the sound of a good set of speakers when I hear them. I haven't heard these gorgeous looking Amphion Xenon floor standing loudspeakers yet but if the noise they produce is as good as they look I'd certainly have a pair in my flat.

Armani Television.

Sun, 27 Apr 2008 00:29:28 +0000

Another gadget for our virtual bachelor pad this time although being marketed as an Armani Television is actually made by Samsung. Apparently this TV will come in both 46 and 52 inch versions and uses full 1080p LCD television technology. Thats enough of the boring details, to keep it simple the picture on the Armani / Samsung television should be more than good enough to watch the football on with your mates and a cold 6 pack.

Next Weekends Premiership Fixtures 26/04/08.

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 23:19:38 +0000

Might as well get the Premiership football fixtures for next weekends matches in early. Fixtures are for games being played between 26/04/08 and 02/05/08. The biggest game is obviously Manchester United's championship clash with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, but my second pick of the weekends football action is Everton versus Aston Villa.

The Last Shadow Puppets Video.

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 13:28:26 +0000

Haven't added any new videos to the blog for big boys recently so here's a new one for you. Again its a music video (running theme going on here I know) from The Last Shadow Puppets and the first single release The Age Of The Understatement which I am really loving. I'd be very surprised if anyone on here hasn't already heard of The Last Shadow Puppets as they are The Arctic Monkeys Alex Turner's side project. Anyway enjoy the video for The Age Of The Understatement.

James Bond Aston Martin Crashes.

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 13:11:22 +0000

The Aston Martin used in the new James Bond film Quantum Of Solace has been crashed into the Italian Lake Garda. The British sports car was being delivered to the movie set in heavy rain when the driver lost control around a tight corner and the Aston Martin DBS ploughed off the road and into the lake.

Wii Fit on Nintendo Wii.

Sat, 19 Apr 2008 22:37:07 +0000

If we're all honest we would be able to admit that most of us could do with losing a few pounds around the waistline. Well it seems Nintendo have decided to take the boredom out of exercise with the forthcoming release of Wii Fit on the Nintendo Wii. It looks like a pretty cool gadget with two footpads that measure the treasure being applied to them. Although I think it Wii Fit will hit the newspapers after a load of the units break from super fat people using them!

Fri, 18 Apr 2008 23:19:56 +0000

Manchester United seem to be securing the long term services of there English players after announcing new deals have been reached with Micheal Carrick, (the over rated and highly dislikable) Wes Brown and Rio Ferdinand. The length of the new contracts has not been disclosed and was announced to Manchester United boss Alex Ferguson by chief executive David Gill today.

Bargain Xbox 360!

Thu, 17 Apr 2008 23:45:23 +0000

Yup its sale time in the computer games industry especially with the excellent Microsoft Xbox 360 (who would have thought excellent and Microsoft would ever make it into the same sentence lol). Anyway they have just dropped the cheapest priced Xbox 360 now named the Xbox 360 Arcade to just £159.00 which I personally think is a bargain.
