Gilpin Family whisky is a new single malt whisky made from the urine of diabetics. Creator James Gilpin doesn’t sell the stuff, but rather gives away bottles as a public health statement.
We couldn’t make this up.
From the product page:
Resources Gilpinfamilywhisb Sugar heavy urine excreted by diabetic patients is now being utilized for the fermentation of high-end single malt whisky for export. The Whisky market is growing faster then any other alcoholic beverage worldwide. With a prevalent genetic weakness being exposed in the northern hemisphere leading to a sharp rise in type two diabetes, economists have found a new exportable commodity to exploit and are keen to capitalize on this resource quickly.
Large amounts of sugar are excreted on a daily basis by type-two diabetic patients especially amongst the upper end of our aging population. As a result of this diabetic patients toilets often have unusual scale build up in the basin due and rapid mould growths as the sugar put into the system acts as nutrients for mould and bacteria growth. Is it plausible to suggest that we start utilizing our water purification systems in order to harvest the biological resources that our elderly already process in abundance?
James, who is a diabetic himself, says that “large amounts of sugar are excreted on a daily basis by type-two diabetic patients especially amongst the upper end of our aging population.” James gets the urine from elderly volunteers including his own grandma.

The plane had just landed, but he was ready to take off.
A JetBlue flight attendant blew his top, grabbed some beer and bolted out an emergency slide at Kennedy Airport Monday – then headed home to have sex with his boyfriend.
After he was bonked in the head by a bag, Steven Slater stunned passengers by spewing profanity and ranting about quitting as the flight from Pittsburgh pulled up to the gate about noon.
“To the f—–g a–hole who told me to f–k off, it’s been a good 28 years,” Slater, 38, purred, cops said. “I’ve had it. That’s it,” he added, a passenger said.
The mad-as-hell steward grabbed a couple of beers and popped one open before activating the emergency exit, witnesses told airport employees. After tossing his two carry-on bags on the slide, he followed them to the tarmac.
Slater – who actually first started working for airlines 20 years ago, not 28 – then walked to the AirTrain, stripped off his company tie and flung it off as bemused passengers watched.
“I wish we could all quit our jobs like that,” said passenger Phil Catelinet, 36, of Brooklyn, who was on the flight and the AirTrain.
“He seemed kind of happy about it. He was like, ‘I just quit my job.’ “
Port Authority police said it took jetBlue 25 minutes to report the incident, allowing Slater time to leave the scene.
Cops found him in bed with his boyfriend when they arrived to arrest him at a beachfront home in the Rockaways with a porch overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, sources said. Click here to see a short clip of Steven being taken away in handcuffs while throwing a “Yeah…AND?” smirk at the cameras.
Slater was wearing a sheepish smile when Port Authority detectives walked him to a waiting van a few hours later. He was charged with reckless endangerment and criminal mischief.
JetBlue would not say how long Slater had worked for the airline, but he wrote on his MySpace page that he was “enjoying being back in the skies” after a five-year break.

The cast members of “The Real Housewives Of DC” appeared on “The View” yesterday to promote the upcoming show, but the drama that went down was far better than I’m sure the show will ever be.
Michaele Salahi was babbling on about who insulted who on the show, when Whoopi Goldberg emerged from the back area and touched her. Whoopi asked her to stay on topic, saying, “Can we go back to the White House, please?” She promptly left the stage, but most of the drama happened back there after the show.
Apparently Michaele had accused Whoopi of hitting her upon approaching her when the show was being taped. This set Whoopi off, prompting her to vehemently deny the kerfuffle. View the tape, below:
According to Lisa Bloom, the Salahi’s lawyer, Goldberg grabbed Salahi’s arm and said, “Move on, move on! Get to the White House!”
…Then, after the show finished taping, Goldberg, according to the Salahis’ lawyer, Lisa Bloom, burst into a room Michaele was sitting in with Tareq and screamed: “I didn’t f*cking hit you! Did you say I f*cking hit you?”
According to Michaele’s lawyer, Lisa Bloom, she was defamed on the show by being referred to as the White House party crashers, when they were told not to mention that. They’re still claiming that they were invited, even though that’s unlikely.
Lisa Bloom said, “I think they treated her horribly. I think they defamed her. I was really shocked by the way she was treated. It’s one thing to ask tough questions, it’s another to use defamatory language when you’ve been warned not to.”
What do you think? Are they just famewhores seeking more publicity?

Italian artist Giuseppe Veneziano has opened a controversial show that features superheroes and various loved cartoon characters doing some very human (and disturbing) things.
The show in Pietrasanta, Italy has stirred up controversy due mostly to it’s image of a baby Hitler cuddling up with the Virgin Mary, but it also features several other strange images of beloved characters engaging in destructive (read: awesome) behavior.
Check them out below!

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is a complete wack-job. The Iranian President stated yesterday that Paul the Psychic Octopus is a “symbol of Western decadence and decay”.
If you aren’t aware of what Paul the Psychic Octopus is, first, congratulations for finally getting out from under that rock. Now, let me clue you in.
Paul, who lives at the Oberhausen Sea Life Centre, in Germany, correctly predicted the outcome of all seven German World Cup matches. Then, just because he wasn’t sure that was enough of a display of his badassery, he decided to go ahead and correctly predict that the Spanish would win the World Cup.
Now Mahmoud is pissed. He believes that this evil little bastard of an octopus represents all that is wrong with the terrible Western society.
He stated,
“Those who believe in this type of thing cannot be the leaders of the global nations that aspire, like Iran, to human perfection, basing themselves in the love of all sacred values.”
What a bag of douche.

A private jet carrying funnyman Dave Chappelle made an emergency landing last night in Pittsburgh when the pilot deemed Chappelle a “safety risk” because of his erratic behavior.
A source close to the incident claims that Dave went all Tyrone Biggums while on the plane, refusing to buckle his seat belt and repeatedly entering the cockpit and grabbing the pilot’s arm while asking how much longer the flight would last.
Chappelle then checked into a nearby hotel and allegedly told employees there that he wanted to rent a car to drive back to Ohio… except that he couldn’t remember where he lived.
He was seen leaving the hotel this morning, and a rep told TMZ that the entire incident was caused by Dave Chappelle’s need to use the bathroom. The one on the plane just wasn’t the “right kind of bathroom”.
What?

Things aren’t really adding up in the case of Jeremy London’s kidnapping. Firstly, the former child star claimed that he was held up at gunpoint after changing his tire. He also claimed that he was driven around in his car, forced to do drugs and even purchase beer for the kidnapper’s friends.
And the plot thickens. Apparently, the kidnapper, Brandon Adams, has friends who say that he isn’t an angel, but he would never force anyone to do crack. His neighbor said that he may do drugs with “that actor”, but he wouldn’t force anything like that on anyone. Oh yeah, and he’s a big drinker….
Now that Brandon has been hauled in to the police station and booked on a crap load of charges, new details are emerging. Apparently, Jeremy had his wife, Melissa Cunningham, in the car with him while he was being kidnapped. And because kidnappers and thugs are SO nice, they dropped her off.
I have never heard of a criminal so kind that they decide to drop off the woman, so that she doesn’t get hurt. Maybe I just watch too many movies….But what I can’t fathom is why she didn’t immediately call the police when she was so nicely dropped off?
What are your thoughts on the situation?

Lady Gaga is the inspiration behind a new sex doll, and the box art is frickin’ hilarious.
I really don’t find Lady Gaga that attractive for some reason, but I’m sure that at least a dozen people will be buying her look-a-like, the rubber doll aptly named “Lady Gag Gag“. Then they are going to have sex with it. Terrifying sex.
According to the box, “Gag Gag Loves GOO GOO!” and “She Loves It When You Poke-Her Face!”
I wonder if the star is hiding a penis?

Actor Jeremy London (of Party of Five and 7th Heaven) had quite an adventure last week.
London, 37, was changing a flat tire in Palm Springs, California when two men stopped and offered to help. Instead of helping, they drove him around town in his own vehicle at gunpoint (which I’m guessing means that they did change the tire after all) before supposedly forcing him to smoke either crack or methamphetamine. They also made him purchase alcohol and hand it out to a bunch of a people in the ghetto.
It’s almost heartwarming. Like Robin Hood, but with assholes.
London somehow escaped around 3am and notified authorities, who found his vehicle in a Palm Springs neighborhood near where one of the kidnappers lived. Two men were charged yesterday over this total ball of WTF.

TMZ has confirmed that the pictures of Gary Colemanon his deathbed that have been shopped around today have been bought by an unnamed tabloid. The person behind these pictures? I’ll give you one guess.
Yep, his heartless gold-digging ex-wife, Shannon Price.
Oh, it’s such a good thing that I don’t write certain words on this blog. The one that comes to mind starts with a “C”, though.
Shannon Price not only quickly pulled the plug on Gary, she also hired a production company to take the pictures of him in the hospital while he was laying there dying. One of the photos that has been sold is a picture of Price posing next to Coleman while he’s on his back and full of tubes.
So, this evil bag of douche wants people to believe that she didn’t attack Gary, then pull the plug on him as quickly as possible so that he wouldn’t wake up and tell anyone. I think the authorities need to take a good long look at the bitch. I’m all about a bit of ruthlessness here and there, but this is taking it a bit too far. I wish bad luck upon Shannon Price. By “bad luck” I mean a slow, painful industrial accident of some sort.
Illusionist/endurance artist David Blaine has revealed that he is contemplating being set adrift in the middle of the ocean inside a life-size bottle as his next stunt.
Can you say shark bait?
Blaine, 37, who has done stunts like holding his breath for over 17 minutes and spending 44 days without food suspended in a Perspex box in London, said he is trying to work what he had seen in a dream into becoming reality.
“What am I working on next? It started because I had a dream one night that I was in a life-size bottle in the middle of the ocean.
That’s where it started, and now I’m trying to work out how to make that into a physical reality – into a real physical feat.â€
Uwe Mitzscherlich, a German man, has a dying cat, Cecilia. Apparently this man was so lonely that he decided to marry his kitty.
Cecilia reportedly suffers from asthma, is 15-years-old and dying. Uwe thought because they share the same bed, that they should be husband and wife.
Since it is illegal in Germany to marry an animal, the groom hired an actress for $395 to officiate the ceremony. He said, “Cecilia is such a trusting creature. We cuddle all the time and she has always slept in my bed.”
Yes, I’m sure you cuddle all of the time, but that doesn’t mean it’s okay to marry your cat, ya freakazoid. He even put her in a bridal gown and himself in a tux with a top hat. Because that’s classy!
Ugh, this post has just got me sickened beyond belief. There’s a guy who was adopted, Phil Bailey, who went looking for his grandmother after his mother died from cancer. He found her alright! And they’re having a baby together.
Wait, what? Yes, you read that correctly. These two crazy kids have decided to procreate! Grandmother Pearl Carter is 72 and he’s 26 and they’ve hired a surrogate to have their baby. Yes, I’m hearing the collective “Ewwww” that you’re all spitting out at the same time.
You’re supposed to love your grandmother, not LOVE your grandmother. These two don’t see anything wrong with their hookup and Phil says that he likes the older ladies.
In their defense, Phil says that he never knew Pearl while he was growing up, so this doesn’t really count. Yes, Phil, sorry to break it to you, but it does count. She birthed your mother and even though you never knew each other, this is just wrong!
She says, “I’m not interested in anyone else’s opinion. I am in love with Phil and he’s in love with me. Soon I’ll be holding my son or daughter in my arms and Phil will be the proud dad.”
Phil says, “I love Pearl with all my heart. I’ve always been attracted to older women and I think Pearl is gorgeous. Now I’m going to be a dad and I can’t wait. Yes, we get laughed at and bullied when we go out and kiss in public but we don’t care. You can’t help who you fall for.’
Yes you can! Now even after she passes away, he’s always going to be known as that dude who diddled his grandmother. Fact!

What kind of moron do you have to be to never smoke a single cigarette, yet somehow get addicted to nicotine gum? The Jessica Simpson kind of moron, apparently.
The boobalicious singer recently stated that she started chewing the gum by accident (she thought it was chicken, I’m assuming), and now relies on it for energy.
She said:
“I am addicted to Nicorette gum… Never in my life have I smoked. The first time I ever chewed a piece of Nicorette gum one of my close friends’ mother gave it to me. I think she thought she was giving me a piece of regular gum. I was chewing it and it was like a party in my mouth. It was like fireworks and ‘Oh my God, I’m talking a million miles per hour and I love this gum and what kind of gum is this? I have to have this gum!’ It’s Nicorette and it gives me energy – it’s like drinking three Red Bulls.”
If Jessica Simpson has an addictive personality and wants a party in her mouth… well, call me, Jess.

PETA does some wacky things, most of them involving nudity (which I 100% support). I’m going to have to call foul on their newest ad campaign however. It’s not so much that they used Bea Arthur’s image, since she was a longtime supporter of their tree hugging mumbo jumbo, it’s the headline. The damned headline.
“It’s enough to make Bea Arthur roll over in her grave”
Really, PETA? You take one of the freakin’ Golden Girls, use her image above a slaughtered chicken with the title “McCruelty“, and follow that up with a line like,
“Death couldn’t stop this Golden Girl from fighting the Golden Arches‘ cruel slaughter practices.”
That is so full of WTF-ery that I am truly at a loss for words.
