In celebration of mankind’s historical first landing on the moon, we’re sharing “5 things you didn’t know about the moon“. To start – turtles were the first to orbit the moon. Secondly, during a solar eclipse, the moon’s shadow moves faster than the speed of sound. Third – the moon was formed by ‘the big whack theory’. Fourth – blue moons aren’t all that rare, more like once every three years. And the last thing you didn’t know about the moon is that it ‘moonquakes’ just like an earthquake. We’re still trying to figure our where the term ‘pull a mooner’ came from.

Some things are just recession proof – ya know, like the 25 thousand ‘love hotels’ in Japan, which are visited about 500 million times a year. Love hotels are exactly what you think they are and have names like ‘Hotel For You’ and ‘Asain P-Door’. You can get even get rooms by the hour. The variety is huge – there are mock castles, themes of soft toys and bondage, doctor and nurse dress up and for those who wanna teach someone a lesson who’s been really really bad, there are even classrooms. Book early – there is a 400% occupancy rate, which means each room is, on average, used four times per day. Lets just hope that the cleaning staff doesn’t go on strike.

So just in case you’re looking to make your partner jealous, there’s actually a kit you can buy to help you unfold faking an affair. It’s called “Traces Of An Imaginary Affair” – check it out here. The kit contains a set of nine tools that can leave marks on your body such as bite marks, carpet burns, bondage marks, love bites, scratches and bruises. There’s also lipstick, perfume and hair that can be applied to your clothes. Apparently it was inspired by stories of people who used fake evidence of being a victim or being sick to receive attention from others. I guess it’s also handy for the Don Juan who’s too busy to meet that special someone, or if having an actual affair seems like to much scheduling. Whatever happened to old fashioned dumping?
