.: The World's Greatest Driving Road :.
Absolutely AMAZING!
The Jebel Hafeet Mountain Road in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is the greatest driving road in the world. Stretching for 7.3 miles and climbing nearly 4,000 feet, it boasts 60 corners and a surface so smooth that it would flatter a racetrack.

So Adorable!
“Ninjas are deadly, silent, and adorable.
Ninjas, traditionally, are stealth assassins – trained in a variety of fighting styles. There are times, however, when combat isn’t required; when struggle needs not the exquisite edge of the blade, subtler means become necessary. Snuggles.
Wee Ninjas spend most days training, and most nights ninjaing. When they’re not ninjaing, they’re perfecting the art of the Stealth Hug. They’re also quite adept at the Sneak Snuggle, and the Fists of Tickle Fury. Cloaked in the night, these Wee Ninjas are perfect for cuddling their quarry into submission.”Go to ThinkGeek.com
