Statistics are always blurred and the truth is that 87% of us hate our job sometimes. We all have our good and bad days and in fact there are times when we love or hate our job at the same time and in equal measure.

Be glad you are using the best invention of the past decade. That is of course, if you are on Facebook as Facebook is named best invention of the past decade.

The survey, performed on several Britons, asked more than a thousand people to name their favorite invention within the past decade. Almost 75 percent of them named Facebook among their choices. This does not surprise us, as facebook had defined the landscape of social media and social networking. Facebook is not the only social networking website ranking in the survey as Twitter comes third getting 58 percent of the votes. iPhone comes in between Facebook and Twitter, ranking second in the survey.

There were funny inventions ranking in the survey such as jeggings-a fashionable cross between jeans and leggings and there were even some who voted for Jedward–the X Factor twins.

Facebook comes at the top of the survey with 73 percent, iPhone comes second at 62 percent. Followed by twitter, the mp3 player, satellite navigation systems, the iPod, Youtube, HD TVs, GHD hair straighteners and 3D films.

It is funny to note these things down. Considering that these are the technological inventions which have defined the last decade.

Happy Jousting with Pummel Sticks

Aurus — Fri, 04 Jan 2008 01:32:25 +0000

The pugil stick was popularized in the United States by the physical game show American Gladiators, which first aired in 1989. In the joust contest, players would try and knock each other off of pedestals using pugil sticks. These padded weapons have been used by military personnel for bayonet training since the 1930s or 1940s. They allow soldiers to train without potential for very serious injury. Pugil bouts are usually conducted with hard contact while wearing protective gear.

If you’re up for a pugil duel, there’s no need to sign up for a game show or the army – these inflatable Pummel Sticks will let you have a gladiator match in your very own backyard. They’re a breeze to assemble and even come with an air pump. The inflatable Pummel Sticks are made from strong PVC material, so you can get your annoying brother good without hurting him too much.
