The Onion Town is a little village not far out side New York and the urban myth wants the local people to be a bit strange.? very strange

So a lot of people started visiting the village to see what really goes on. From what I found from many forums were visitor comments such “they are crazy” they tried to kill us” etc

So some people thought of filming their visit. So here are the videos from their adventure in oniontown. The first video does not show anything special but the comments in it enraged the town folks and the next bunch of visitors there were greeted with sticks and stones.

The police made a statement calling all outsiders to leave oniontown alone.

Yesterday in Halberstadt another piece from teh worlds longest concert was heard. It will keep going like this for 6 centuries till it concludes.

Back in September 2000, German composer, John Cage became 88 years old. From that day and for the next 639 years his masterpiece will play uninterrupted.

Its title is ORGAN2/ASLSP (As Slow aS Possible) and it is played at the church of St. Burchardi στο Halberstadt.

The play was written in 1985 and for piano but in 1987 Cage changed his mind and the play was rewritten for an organ.

If the long duration seems strange, do not worry as there is a very good explanation behind it. The composer decided to write a play as long as 2000-1361 = 639. The 1361 is the year that the organ first appeared in Halberstadt and 2000 is the year that the play started. Too bad that none of us will be alive to hear it by 2639.

The day that the new Batman movie, the Dark Knight, will be released is approaching fast and Warner is making sure that we don’t forget about it.

The most impressive part of this advert campaign is… the creation of the entire world of Batman on the Internet using dozens of fake websites that are related to the movie.

The Acme Security Systems, the Gotham Cab company, the Gotham Cable News, Gotham City Bank, and various other services/companies that appear in teh movie have their own website and they were set up for advertising the movie.

The spooky part of this campaign is Gina Tortericci’s webpage with messages from her friends etc and it looks so real that if someone was not aware who she is, he would think that she is really a person who lost their life.

So here are the ~40 websites that complete this advert campaign. Almost all deserve a visit:

We all know that when you add oil to water, it rises to the surface. A company in Japan, called Water Fryer decided to exploit this physical effect and add some water and a goldfish, at the bottom of a fryer.

As they state the oil’s high temperature does not affect the fish and that it also gets fed by the crumbles a potatoes bits that mgiht find their way down.

Of course if the gold fish tries to immitate Prison Break then the restaurant clients will get an extra treat!
