Here is a wonderful live performance of Our Lady Peace’s Are You Sad? A gentle song that borders on hope, it’s a slightly different version from the original but it is so beautifully accented by the lighting effects. I didn’t expect this song to translate this great in a live format but OLP have proved me wrong.

A Great Flirting Line
I don’t know if you’d call it a a pick-up line per se, it’s more like a flirtatious & harmless little line that always seems to do the trick for me as far as breaking the ice and making a girl laugh and open up to me. The last few times I have used it has had tremendous effect and I know that this seems to be a memorable line for them women who I have used it. So what’s my favourite line:
“Do you know that you’re so angry when you’re beautiful?”
I’ve tried this over the phone, face to face in person with women and it’s guaranteed to get me a laugh and quite a few smiles. I usually do this during a little flirting session or even when we are casual chatting. Even did it once during a mild argument and the effect was fabulous. The woman who was arguing with me, a friend & colleague, stopped as if she was hit by lightning as soon as she heard me say the words, I could see her trying in vain to hold back her laughter but I could see the twinkle in her eyes. I then winked at her and smiled and watched in pleasure as she laughed out loud and pinched my cheek and said that I was impossible!
Deep Fried Beer Recipe
Here’s a great piece of news for those who love going in for those beer binges frequently. A chef in the US has come up with what he claims to be the world’s first recipe for deep-fried beer.
According to chef Mark Zable, the beer is placed inside a pocket of salty, pretzel-like dough and then dunked in oil at 375 degrees for about 20 seconds, a short enough time for the confection to remain alcoholic. Five ravioli-like pieces will sell for $5 (£3) and the Texas Alcoholic Commission has already ruled that people must be aged over 21 to try it.
When people take a bite, the hot beer mixes with the dough to give a delicious taste sensation, British newspaper The Daily Telegraph reported.
Zable said it had taken him three years to come up with the cooking method. “Nobody has been able to fry a liquid before. It tastes like you took a bite of hot pretzel dough and then took a drink of beer,” he said.
His deep-fried beer will be unveiled in a fried food competition at the Texas state fair later this month. The Texas Alcoholic Commission has already ruled that people must be aged over 21 to try it.
Zable previously invented dishes including chocolate-covered strawberry waffle balls and jalapeo corndog shrimps.
