I spotted this guy at an “Eat Fish Day” festival I happened upon while on vacation in Dominica, and wondered to myself if he might have the world’s longest dreadlocks. Turns out I was wrong– Asha Mandela of Trinidad has dreds longer than she is tall — more than 8 feet!! Needless to say, this guy’s hair took some dedication!!

Blogadilla reader Melissah has come up with — or at the very least, championed — a great way of writing on her blog: every day, write a story of no more than 100 words. The random snapshots of worlds she provides are great; this particular story, “Megadik,” convinced me to blog about her project. Caution: not for the faint of heart (and be advised that much of her work is tame).
Mikey sat in a corner of his bedroom, surrounded by a moat of his own vomit and covered in Veronica’s blood. In fact, there was hardly a corner of the room that wasn’t smattered with gore or bile or pieces of torn entrails. The bed was the worst, of course. That was where Veronica – what was left of Veronica, lay on either side of the bed. She had been torn in two.
Between his legs, Mikey’s artificially enhanced member throbbed. It had ripped her apart, just as the spam message had claimed it would. His penis had killed Veronica.
Upon further review, it appears this project died October 12, 2008 — a year ago to the day. Bring it back, Mel!
“CNN has to get rid of that stupid voter reaction graph… At least while McCain is talking. Every time I look at the screen I think, ‘Oh my God, he’s dead.’”
