Pacman Destroys Ricky Hatton




Boxing is one of those sports that leaves its' true fans awed and horrified at the same time. This was another one of those occasions, while you appreciate the skill and the bravery shown in the ring, you're also mortified after seeing the fighters take such savage beatings, and all you can say is for God's sake someone stop the fight. Shocked and awed; those are the only words that I can come up with to describe what I saw last night, as Manny Pacquiao absolutely obliterated Manchester's Great, Ricky the Hitman Hatton. Thousands of wildly chanting english fans who came all the way from the pubs of Manchester to cheer for their hero, were silenced almost as the fight began. The way each fighter entered the ring, foreshadowed what was to come. Ricky came in serious, tense, and rearing to throw leather. Manny Pacquiao entered the ring with his entourage that included Wrestling Superstar Batista, Pacman's face was lit up ear to ear with a huge relaxed grin that hid the ferocity within. Manny seemed like a schoolboy who already had all the answers to a final exam.

Ricky Hatton came out fired up, throwing jabs and digging punches from the clinch. Pacqauiao started out slowly, boxing and evading while sniping a rapier like jab of his own. The thousands of Mancunians in attendance drowned out their Filipino counter parts as Hatton seemed to push Manny into the ropes. Their joy was short lived; as Pacquiao snapped out lightning fast punches that seemed to shock Hatton. Oscar De La Hoya had told Hatton before the fight, that Pacquiao does not hit that hard, (probably the stupidest piece of advise ever given. A clearly fazed Hatton, got caught with a wicked right hook with a minute left in the first round, as he fell face first unto the canvas. The brave English brawler, got to his feet and fought back, only to be caught in an avalanche of punches coming from every direction. Hatton tried desperately to get away, but was knocked to the canvas again by a powerful straight left that actually came through his upraised glove. The bell ending the round, saved Hatton.

Floyd Mayweather Sr, Hatton's idiotic trainer blabbered incomprehensibly in his corner. Floyd Sr, for all his smarts, talks like an urban kid stricken with down syndrome, to which Hatton only nodded his head. I don't think he understood a single word he was saying at that point. Hatton came out for the second round, in much better shaped than I thought, and weathered Manny Pacquiao's whirlwind assault even getting in a shot or two to stave off the inevitable. Still, brave Ricky was rocked several times and the end seemed apparent. When it looked like Hatton would escape the second round by a hairsbreadth, Manny drew Ricky in with a feint right jab before unloading what only be described as a Left Cross from Hell. The monstrous blow, hammered into Hatton's chin snapping his locked neck to the left before whiplashing back to the right. The english warrior was out cold before he even hit the canvas. He did not even have enough consciousness to brace his fall to the canvas.

Frighteningly, Hatton lay unconscious for several minutes on the canvas, his eyes were glazed and his breathing was shallow. In the front rows, Hatton's beautiful fiance was mortified and shaking as tears ran down her face. HBO were being assholes as they panned to where she sat as Hatton was knocked cold.

Javelin Olympian Wins Gold Metal in Hotness




Like many other red blooded males watching the Olympics Opening Ceremony I also noticed a particularly striking Olympian from Paraguay. Up until now I did not know her name or even in what competition she belonged to. I figured maybe she was a gymnasts or a swimmer, certainly not a marathon runner or a heaven forbid a woman weight lifter. Still when I found out she was a javelin thrower, I was a little surprised. Her name is Leryn Franco, long lost cousin of General Francisco Franco, okay I don't think they are related, but she is an aspiring model and apparently has her own calendar. All I know about this javelin thrower, is that I sure would like to spear her...

Ever wonder why the Hall of Justice was kept so clean?

An illegal alien is brought to the Hall of Justice to work as a domestic helper, rofl. Maybe some of you are too young to remember the Hall of Justice; but it was the Headquarters of the Super Friends when the show was being run in the early 80s.

Skin Whitening Products According to me.

Davy's Guide to Skin-Whitening Products..

All is fair in love and skin.

Before and After Skin Whitening Product Whitening




Fair skin is often associated with health, class, wealth, and beauty in many backwards ass countries. Here in the U.S we don't care about that stuff and get drunk and pass out at the beach without worrying getting dark, however..

The skin-whitening market is gigantic in scale, encompassing such diverse locales as Manila, Kuala Lampur, New Delhi, even reaching its pale tentacles to Big Ben in London. Traditionally skin-whitening products have been geared towards women, but recently men have begun purchasing these products too. Apparently not a single man in India will admit to being dark skinned and handsome, they all say they are "Wheatish Complexioned and handsome" I guess if you go there you won't find a single dark skinned man, they're all rolling wheat fields of masculinity.. I swear that Likas soap in the bathroom is not mine!! I think its my brother's... Some dismiss this preference as some lingering ethos of a Colonial past. However, I question the veracity of this widely held truth. If you read Ancient Hindu poetry the aesthetic aspirations of idealized Hindu Beauty was always fair-skin. Same as in China and Kazahkstan (#1 exporter of potassium)

I don't disagree that colonialism only reinforced this notion, but I think it is something ingrained within the human psyche, for even the colonial masters themselves held remarkably similar beliefs.

I think it stems from two things. The first lies within the differences betwen the Aristocracy and the working class. In many cultures, 'fair-complexion' was a sign of Nobility and elitism as it denoted the line between someone who sits in a Castle all day being pampered and one who works the fields performing back crushing labor under the oppressive sun. The Filipino notion of working in "ofis" vs working in "field" describes this perfectly.

Second is the natural tendency for a woman to be always fairer in skin than her racial male counterpart. White females tend to be lighter than white males, black females lighter than black males unless of course your name is Michael Jackson, and ect..

So with that slightly long footnote and psychobabble, here's my list of top skin-lightening products.

1) Bleach: Clorox Bleach is the best, not only will it clean your sox and underpants it will also strip your skin bare plus it is remarkably cheap, I'm sure those rashes and burns are only temporary. My mom works at a hospital so I know these things......

2) Mercury: some people have made unfounded claims that mercury is a "neurotoxin" I think this is just hearsay from people who are jealous of your lighter skin. Some alleged scientists claim that elevated Mercury levels could cause retardation in children.. But who cares, remember if you are a dark skinned girl in a backwards third world country your chances of marriage and consequently having children are slim anyways, and who cares if your children suffer from retardation at least they will have lighter skin.

3) Likas Papaya, a little bit of false advertisement because this didn't taste like Papaya at all,.. However it is the most prefered brand in the Philippines. I asked my white friend which product he used to keep his white skin white while in the Philippines and he prefers this above any other product. Obviously this product works, because he stayed out in the sun a lot and stayed Whiter than rice.

4) Emami Industries "Fair and Handsome" with the tag line "Be Fair or remain in Dark Oblivion".. This product is popular amongst Metro Sexual Indian men. Promising that if you use this, College Girls will swoon all over you. I ordered 25 bottles of this stuff, I'll tell you later how much swooning goes on.

5) Whatever skin lightening my aunt modeled for, obviously this stuff is great, she has radiant skin. I can't remember what it is, it might be Likas, don't quote me on that.

In closing we humans always have this wish to ameliorate our skin condition, and will probably continue to do so, I just hope my Boss doesn't assign me to the "field" *gasp* or I will need more Likas Papaya and Bleach....
