Brushing your teeth can save you from a heart attack, because it removes germs that can harden your arteries .... in fact, apparently its a miracle defence against a myriad of illnesses.
.... apparently mum really did know best.
Read The Instructions
A woman in Birmingham England had to have surgery on her eyes to remove a 'bluish mass'. Examination found that it was at least 27 disposable contact lens fused together. She had been using contact lens for 35 years, but hadn't always removed them before putting new ones in. The 67 year old had gone in for cataract removal. Reminded me of a lady neighbour of ours when I was a kid, who complained that she had been "eating diet chocolate after every meal" and had put weight on.....
Tough Teats
Many women with augmented breasts have apparently been left with boobs like rocks, caused by scar tissue forming around their implants. It's called capsular contracture scarring, and is caused by infections creating the body to try to reject the implants. Sorry, no pictures with this one.
Trauma Ted
Trauma Ted is a teddy bear used to help kids traumatised by fires. He disappeared from a fire engine and has posted pictures from Lapland and of himself visiting other fire stations in Devon. There are pictures of him in the snow and even in the plane's cockpit with the pilots.

The Liberal Party in the UK fought the last election campaign with a pledge of free sanitary towels for school girls. This was because according to them some girls were too poor to buy them, so skipped school.
LA Elfy Lifestyle
Luis Padron already lives in La La Land, USA but that's not enough. He prefers the lands of Middle Earth, or other fantasy worlds .... so he has paid £45,000 to have his eyes changed, his ears made pointy, and his jaw altered to make him look like an elf.
You Speak With Forked Tongue
Apparently tongue splitting is body art craze amongst the tattoo brigade. It also carries a very high risk of infection, nerve damage and hemorrhage so reputable plastic surgeons wont carry out the procedure.
So how does it get done then .... or perhaps more importantly why does anyone get it done?
Oops What Have I Done?
The 17th of January is the most popular date in the calendar for women to take pregnancy tests ..... its 2 weeks after January the 1st .... hmm. Anyways, over 10,000 women in the UK will take a test at home on this date. Records indicate that January the 2nd is when the highest number of UK babies are conceived. ...... How many of the women are relieved by the results is a matter of conjecture.

Being a overweight in your 50's, cuts the risk of dementia by nearly a third (29 per cent), with underweight middle-aged people, a whopping 34 per cent more likely to develop the brain condition. Mind you, as they were using Body Mass Index (BMI), its likely that some very fit muscular people were classed as 'overweight' in the study ..... so take these results with some caution.
