Sporadic Posts Ahead

Just some notification that I won’t be updating my blog as much for the next few weeks. I am moving to a new house in the first week of April and there are many things occupying my time, both in the office and at home.

Also, I’ve been receiving complaints from my friends and colleagues that I didn’t post pictures of our on-going house renovation.

Well looks like I am finally bowing to pressures. However I will post the pictures on my personal blog here www.joeff.net.

So I will update mrBadak.com once in a while but if you miss me that much :P then you can head on over to my personal blog.

Thanks!

Famous Headless Shark

This sculpture of a shark heading into a house is rather huge, it is 25 feet long and weighs 203 kilograms. I think those with Selachophobia (fear of sharks) will want to avoid living in this neighbourhood. The sculpture of the shark has no head and has been there since 1986 in, fittingly enough, Headington, Oxford, England. Get it? Head-ington? :P

What is the purpose behind it? According to the house owner

The shark was to express someone feeling totally impotent and ripping a hole in their roof out of a sense of impotence and anger and desperation…. It is saying something about CND, nuclear power, Chernobyl and Nagasaki.”
