'Scared? Well, Come in....'

Hello guys, Mama Papito here and I am making a very short post because it is not my usual day to post. Alright, today I will be posting about five most creepy and unsolved mysteries all over the world. Before I move on, I would like to recommend you all to read our reviews on music videos. We would appreciate it a lot, thanks.

1. Taman Shud Case

A man is discovered dead on an Australian beach in 1948. The only clue was the words 'Taman Shud', written on a small piece of paper concealed in a hidden pocket of his trousers. These words were later translated as 'finished' in English. His identity and place of origin are still undiscovered by the police.

2. The Pollock Twins

In 1957, two sisters called Joanna which was 11 and Jacqueline which was 6 were tragically killed in an accident in England. A year later, their mother gave birth to twins, Jennifer and Gillian. Remarkably, Jennifer, the younger twin, had birth marks on her body exactly the same place as Jacqueline had them. Dr Ian, a well-respected psychologist, have concluded from the sisters' actions relating to the deceased twins that Jennifer and Gillian were most likely the reincarnations of their departed sisters.

3. The Green Children Of Woolpit

In the 12th century in Suffolk, England, two children popped up of nowhere. Their skin appeared to be green. They also refused to eat anything other than podded peas and talked in a strange tongue which was incomprehensible. The boy took ill and died while the girl managed to adapt to the community and 'survived'.

4. Overtoun Bridge 


This seemingly innocuous bridge in Dumbarton, Scotland, is a hotspot for depressed canines. Over fifty dogs have thrown themselves headlong from the bridge to death or serious injury. It also occurs in the same weather, to the same long-muzzled breeds.

5. Jack The Ripper


Perhaps the most famous serial killer of all time, the Ripper ran amok in the streets of Whitechapel, London in 1888 and the ensuing years. In all, 11 murders in the area have been attributed to the killer.
All of the victims were female and many had their throats sliced open before being relieved of their innards. The fact that Jack has managed to get away with his acts is a reminder to all the people who walk home alone late at night.

You never know who is waiting around the corner...

Hi, Shikubi is here to give a review on a song which is a personal favorite of mine called "Hotel California". The lyrics and the reviews are below so please enjoy and if you could please leave your review too. If you would like to know more about the underlining meaning of the song you could visit this website here.

The Lyrics: 
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of *colitas, rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway;
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself,
"This could be Heaven or this could be Hell"
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say...

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year (Any time of year)
You can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

So I called up the Captain,
"Please bring me my wine"
He said, "We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine"
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say...

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)
Bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said "We are all just prisoners here, of our own device"
And in the master's chambers,
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
"Relax, " said the night man,
"We are programmed to receive.
You can check-out any time you like,
But you can never leave!

*Colitas: A marijuana bud

The reviews:
  • Shikubi: A very creepy song indeed but it rhymes and has a really nice beat. The song is rather catchy and it allows me to imagine demons because of the last paragraph. Most of all this song makes me feel like the guy is really drunk and doesn't know what is actually happening.
  • Mama Papito: It is a very nice song but I prefer other songs as stated in the last post. This is probably me in class......because I am usually playful and excited like my other friends. But seriously, marijuana in a song and it still sounds good, just amazing.
  • Pakalu Chapati: I prefer some anime songs but this is fine with me. In my point of view I feel this song has a very nice rhythm and rhyme to it. It has mention drugs in it yet it doesn't effect youngsters thinking like some of our modern song does. It is not really fast and not really slow so this is nice and suiting to my ears.
  • Banapal: I am not a choosy guy so anything will do for me accept for some of the songs that has terrible meanings. Although this song has mention drugs a few times but the meaning does not encourage youngsters to take it but more like telling the youngsters the effect and consequences after taking it so this song is acceptable for me.

3. The experience carpenter nailed every piece of rt he does but the new guy screwed everything up.

4. The other day i held the door open for a clown because I thought it was a nice jester.

When i finnished I told the waiter "Spain is good but there is Norway I could eat another bit and there was a little too much Greece that was on the Turkey and in my opinion I thought it was a bit unhealthy."

A Little Bit Of Space-Venus



Yo, Shikubi here. As usual I'm going to explain about the 9 planets and so today I will write about Venus although I am really lazy. Let me give you a slight introduction to this planet before we go further. Venus is one of the 4 terrestrial planets in the solar system meaning that, like Earth, it has a rocky body. In size and mass, it is similar to Earth, and is often described as Earth's "sister" or "twin". It can be seen from Earth as I have mention in the last post. Venus is known to the Romans as the goddess of love and beauty




The Greeks believed Venus was two different objects — one in the morning sky and another in the evening. Because it is often brighter than any other object in the sky — except for the sun and moon — Venus has generated many UFO reports.

Venus is the second planet to orbit the sun and it is hotter than Mercury even though Mercury is the closest to the sun, to be honest, it is the hottest planet in the solar system. It's temperature can reach to a ridiculous 863 degrees Fahrenheit or 462 Celsius. This is probably why the Romans named it the goddess of love and beauty if you get what I mean. It is impossible to live on the planet as the atmosphere is extremely toxic and the pressure would literally crush you. Venus's thick toxic atmosphere traps heat and creates a runaway greenhouse effect (It is too long to explain so click the link HERE)

(See, this is why we can't live there unless in any case you wanna die so STOP ASKING!)

Venus orbits the sun every 225.7 Earth day and each day on Venus is 241 Earth days. Venus is one of the planets visible with the unaided eye. Because it has always been easy to see, it’s impossible to say who discovered Venus. In fact, after the Moon and the Sun, Venus is the brightest object in the sky. (Look closer if you can't see the last sentence!) The first person to point a telescope at Venus was Galileo Galilei in 1610. Even with his crude telescope, Galileo realized that Venus goes through phases like the Moon. These observations helped support the Copernican view that the planets orbited the Sun, and not the Earth as previously belived.
There are altogether 43 Missions that have been done and most of it are failures like losing contact and not having enough power to get out of Earth's orbit but that was before 1970, after that there were lots of success. There is a current mission called "Akatsuki" going on right now that started in 2010, it failed but scientist are going to try it again in late 2015. there will also be future missions.

Venus is a planet that contains carbon dioxide, nitrogen, sulfur dioxide, argon, water vapour, carbon monoxide, helium, neon. There are also traces of carbonyl sulfide, hydrogen chloride, hydrogen fluoride. 
Most of it are carbon dioxide because Venus is a planet that doesn't have carbon cycle that puts carbon into rocks, nor does it seem to have any organic life to absorb carbon in biomass.
(This is a simple version of the carbon cycle process)

This is long enough for you guys to read and be entertain for the week. Join me next week for a closer look at Earth! But before I go take a look at the video below and listen attentively, it will help you understand more about what I had been talking about, it will also help you in your studies i guess. So long from this lazy guy!

'Sexy'

HELLLLLOOOOOOOOOOO PEOPLE, Mama Papito here. Foxknot is back with a post that reviews a music video. Today, I will be doing a review on the K-Pop music video, Miniskirt by AOA. As hinted in my previous post, I am a huge fan of AOA. Although this is not their latest song but this is definitely one of their best hits. Speaking of their latest song, check out Heart Attack music video if you want. : )



Enjoy!

Lyrics(Translated):
                                                        Your eyes that look at me
It’s not the same as before
I’m still good-looking
But why do you look at me like I’m a worn-out shoe?
I’m so pretty, whatever I wear
I’m so sexy, even if I don’t show skin
My risky high heels, blackSTOCKINGS
You won’t be able to take your eyes off of me (don’t stop me)
When I wear a miniskirt and walk on the street
Everyone looks at me
I’m wearing a miniskirt
But why are you the only one who doesn’t know?
I’m a confident girl but why are you making me struggle?
You only ignore me
But I don’t know where I’ll bounce off to
I make time toGET my nails done and change my hair
I wear new shoes and wear a miniskirt but
You don’t notice, why are you so indifferent?
Before other wolves come snatch me away, pay attention boy
I’m so pretty, whatever I wear
I’m so sexy, even if I don’t show skin
My risky high heels, blackSTOCKINGS
You won’t be able to take your eyes off of me (don’t stop me)
When I wear a miniskirt and walk on the street
Everyone looks at me
I’m wearing a miniskirt
But why are you the only one who doesn’t know?
I’m a confident girl but why are you making me struggle?
You only ignore me
But I don’t know where I’ll bounce off to
I’mGETTING more and more tired
Even your eyes that look at me, why is it so cold?
I don’t know but it’ll change now
I’m a confident girl but why are you making me struggle?
You only ignore me
But I don’t know where I’ll bounce off to

Mama Papito's review:
Well, as you all can already see from the thumbnail of the video, this is based on a 'sexy' concept which was a trend during that time. This concept is very common in all the K-Pop girl groups. Like most K-Pop songs, there isn't a ton of meaning to the song. It was clear that the video was meant to portrait an attractive image of the girls and deliver a bodacious vibe. However, there were also many criticisms of this release, stating that their attire and certain scenes were revealing, disturbing and alluring in a bad way. From what I interpreted, the song is about them(members of AOA) who attracted everybody else's attention but not a certain someone which they admired and struggled to impress.

Mama Papito's comment:
What I personally like from this music video is the dance and also scenes which showed that the girls are desirable and sexy. I listened to this group ever since their song, 'Confused' was released. Of course, this comment will be heavily bias but I highly recommend this song. The music video is not necessarily in everyone's favour but I am sure that the song might make up for it somehow. All in all, I hope you enjoyed the music video. Look forward to our posts in our future! Thank you for reading.

Banapal's comment:
First of all, this music video really got me excited. I find it very AP-PEELING. GET IT? GET IT? Alright, I guess Shikubi's punny skills has gotten into me somehow. Anyway, I really enjoyed this video and I hope you guys do too. The girls, the song, the concept... It was all great. 

Shikubi's comment:
I am filled with excitement when I saw this. Nice music video.

Pakalu Chapati's comment:
Although I am not interested in all these but I must say that I have enjoyed it slightly. At the very least, the song is a little catchy to me.
