Posted: 30 Jul 2008 07:49 AM CDT When I first saw these pics, I thought they were another set of photoshopped strange alien creatures. They look so strange yet adorable at the same time! Think Wallace and Gromit. If you don’t already know, go ahead, make a wild guess as to what they are. Bet you won’t get it!

Posted: 30 Jul 2008 07:09 AM CDT The world is full of strange places, so why not strange hotels? You will not likely find any of these in the most recommended section of even the best hotel portals as they are not for the average traveller. Forget about Travelocity and Orbitz, we tell you about these places (as recommended by Forbes) that is probably not on their databases. Jules Undersea Lodge, Key Largo, Fla.You can almost imagine this place like the isolated research labs in the DOOM movie and it actually is a former research lab located underwater. Those who cannot scuba dive can forget about staying here although you only need to dive 21 feet to reach their main lobby. This hotel can house a whooping 6 guests but, listen to this, each room is air-conditioned and contains a full 42-inch window in the water. Better draw the shades if you don’t want fishes and other deep-sea creatures peeping in on you!
Hydropalace, Qingdao, China.This most unique hotel is anchored in the Yellow Sea where it is 16-20 meters deep during low tides. How do you get there? By a yacht of course! Ice Hotel, Quebec, Canada.This hotel is probably most well-known among all the rest on this list no thanks to James Bond. This freezing hotel is reconstructed each year out of 15,000 pounds of snow and 500 pounds of ice. The 34-room hotel features an ice chapel, two art galleries and a host of outdoor activities. Surprisingly, the temperature inside the hotel is not arctic cold, but hovers around 23 to 28 degrees Fahrenheit, and best of all, the beds are carved from ice. Don’t worry, you don’t sleep directly on the ice, though–there’s a wooden plank between the ice and a comfy mattress, plus you’re insulated with a special sleeping bag that can withstand the harshest temperatures (-40 degrees Fahrenheit). The best thing about this place, the bathrooms are heated! Casablanca Hotel, New York City.This Casablanca Hotel is named for the classic 1942 film featuring Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman. Propeller Island City Lodge, Berlin, Germany.Each room features a different theme from coffins to castles. There is even a room (as seen below) with wooden blocks adorned with 300 different symbols, talk about unusual. Library Hotel, New York City.No prizes for guessing what this hotel is unusual for. It is located, (surprise!) near the New York Public Library. Each of its 10 floors is designed after one of the 10 categories of the Dewey Decimal System, such as Math and Science and Religion, and each room houses part of the hotel’s collection of 6,000 books. Think Nerd paradise. The Pitcher Inn, Warren, Vt.The nine rooms and two suites at The Pitcher Inn are designed on themes such as “School,” “Trout” and “Calvin Coolidge.” And the themes are not limited to just variations in wallpaper–the “Stable” suite has a hay chute opening into it. Ariau Towers Hotel, Brazil.Ever dreamed of sleeping on the treetops since you were young, but could not build a treehouse near your home? This is your dream come true. This hotel is situated in the treetops of the Amazon Rainforest with “Tarzan’s house,” perched on stilts 80 feet above the ground. This sounds cool! Beckham Creek Cave Haven, Parthenon, Ark.Think Bill Gates during caveman times and you get Beckham Creek Cave Haven. This ultimately “luxurious cave” features jacauzzi bathtubs and large windows for lighting. Winvian, Morris, Conn.The most unique feature of this place, is the lodging options, one of which is a helicopter. Don’t ask me, but it doesn’t sound like the most comfortable room! |

Posted: 30 Jul 2008 07:09 AM CDT This former Miss USA was born in 1964 and was the 1st Hispanic to win this coverted crown. She also made it to the top 10 in Miss Universe 1985. She also tried her hand in acting in Mulholland Drive, The Punisher and The Shield among others. She’s a beauty in a non-sleazy kind of way, don’t you think? |
Posted: 30 Jul 2008 07:08 AM CDT My wife and I can't come to the phone right now, but if you'll leave your name and number, we'll get back to you just as soon as we're finished. A is for Academics … B is for Beer. One of those reasons is why we're not here. Please leave a message. Hi. This is John. Hi. I'm not home right now, but my answering machine is. So you can talk to it instead. Wait for the beep. Hello, I'm David's answering machine. What are you? Hi! John's answering machine is broken. This is his refrigerator. Please speak very slowly and I'll stick your message to myself with one of these little magnets. Hello, this is Sally's microwave. Her answering machine just eloped with a tape deck, so I'm stuck with taking her calls. Say… if you want anything cooked while you're leaving your message, just hold it up to the phone. Hello. You are talking to a machine. I am capable of receiving messages. My owners do not need replacement windows or a hot tub, and their carpets are clean. They give to charity through their office and do not need their picture taken. If you're still with me, leave your name and number after the beep and they will get back to you. This is not an answering machine. It is a telepathic thought-recording device. After the tone, think about your name, your reason for calling and the number where I can reach you. I'll think about returning your call. Hi. I'm probably home. I'm just avoiding talking with someone I don't like. Leave me a message, and if I don't call back, it's you. Hi! This is Anna’s disembodied voice, she can’t come to the phone right now, leave a message or try another plane of existance. Hi. This is George. Sorry I can't come to the phone right now. Leave your name and number, then wait by your phone until I call you back. Hello. If you're a burglar, then we are probably at home cleaning our weapons right now and can't come to the phone. Otherwise, we are probably not at home and it is safe to leave us a message. You're growing tired. Your eyelids are becoming very heavy. You feel sleepy now. You are gradually losing your will power and your ability to resist suggestions. When you hear the tone, you will feel helplessly compelled to leave your name, telephone number and a brief message. At the sound of the tone, you may leave a message. You have the right to remain silent. However, anything you say will be recorded and may be used by us. Hello. You've reached Jim and Sonya. We can't come to the phone right now because we're doing something we really enjoy. Sonya likes to do it up and down, and I like doing it left to right … very slowly. So leave a message, and when we're done brushing our teeth, we'll get back to you! |
