Seems Australians are damaging their ear to such an extent
that up to ¼ of the population will be
going deaf within 20yrs says a leading expert.
They say the main problem is the aging population and the
overall loudness of the modern environment a professor said he thinks that
people should think of noise damage the same way they think of
sunburn…………..what the hell……................he also said young people wearing
headphones to listen to loud music is damaging their hearing, who would had
thought……………lol
A few weeks ago hundreds of British animal lovers decided to
have a run around a zoo, naked………….to raise money for a rare subspecies of tiger…………they did raise
$102,000 but what the hell……………….I don’t get people running around naked…………
A young New York City man was killed recently after
being struck in the head by a remote-controlled toy helicopter he was flying in
a city park. the 19yr old , suffered the fatal head injury.
Witnesses told police the helicopter he was flying crashed into his head and
cut off part of the top of his head and his shoulder, while his friends watched
on in horror.
"He was known to be aggressive in his flying and often executed
tricks. He was executing a trick when he was struck," a police source told
the Wall Street Journal.
The helicopter's blades, which spin at 2000 revolutions per minute, span
1.5metres. What the hell.............
I am not at all surprised by the hearing loss as we are all surrounded by extremely loud noises. Even going to the theater about blasts you out of the seat when the movies starts.
ReplyDeleteI don't get the naked run either. AND why is anyone putting in money to see it?
I saw that story on the local news about the toy helicopter. What a waste that someone dies over playing with a toy. Really such a shame.
It didn't surprise me either, I don't get listening to loud music through ear bud type headphones....
DeleteI wouldn't pay to see someone run around naked either
I wouldn't had thought a toy helicopter could do so much damange
Even for a good cause, I would never think of running around naked in a zoo. Ack.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are feeling better, my friend~
I am feeling better, and no bloody way I would run around naked no matter how much you paid me
DeleteWell animals don't wear clothes.
ReplyDeleteI hadn't heard anything about the toy helicopter. I wonder when they will take them off the market.
I can believe it about the hearing. I hate those ear buds. Give me old fashioned head phones any day.
Yes I prefer the old fashioned head phones too.......
DeleteIf animals wore clothes we would think it odd........
Yeah I wondered too if they would take it off the market
I always told X he shouldn't listen to such loud music with head phones. I felt no sympathy for him when he suffered significant hearing loss. I hope he makes the new Mrs. X miserable by constantly asking, WHAT? in an angry voice the way he did with me.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
I have always like loud music but not through head phones...........that I don't get
DeleteOnce upon a time, if you ran about nekkid you got arrested and made fun of in a comedy record. Now, you raise 100K. Whatta world!
ReplyDeleteYeah what a world I would not pay to see someone run around naked but I am not that interested in seeing naked people.......
DeleteEven for a good cause, I would never think of running around naked in a zoo that would be scary
ReplyDeleteYeah a giraffe might bite you on the boob, you know it does have along neck
DeleteKids are wearing ear buds listening to music at a very young age these days. I won't allow my kids to use them yet. They'll be doing it enough when they're teenagers. I would never run naked -- too much bouncing around! lol!
ReplyDeleteYeah I agree we need to stop young kids wearing them because once they are teenagers it is a task and half to stop them doing anything if they feel like doing it.
DeleteYeah bits flopping up and down not a pretty sight
OMG, WTH!?! And my hearing totally sucks and I never did all the loud stuff to cause it.
ReplyDeleteWhat? I can't hear you. :/
