They say the best ones are either gay or married, but Jake Shears of the Scissor Sisters is going to be both. Jake has proposed to his boyfriend and the two will get married in New Jersey where gay unions are legal, and this will be followed by a lavish party in New York. Jake has told his fag-hags Kylie Minogue and Geri Halliwell to keep the secret date free. Jake has chosen a “technicolour” themed wedding and plans to wear a striped suit for the ceremony.

Congratulations Jake and Chris. I wish you guys the best!

So apparently according to Celebrity-Look-Alike.Com, I share a similar face with the likes of Jude Law, Dominic Purcell, Gerard Butler, and Eugene Levy. Who do you look like?

Admit it, we’re all guilty of wishing we owned our own island where we could live out our fantasies. If you, like me, have dreamed of sipping Mai Tais under a tropical sunset, now’s your chance to own your very own hunk of land surrounded on all sides by water.

The only privately owned island on the San Francisco Bay is up for sale. Red Rock Island, 5.8 undeveloped acres plunked in the bay eight miles north of Fisherman’s Wharf, was purchased by attorney David Glickman in 1964 for $49,500. Now 78 and living in Bangkok, Glickman’s putting the island on the market at $10 Million.

Howdy folks from sunny Dallas, Texas. This is Mike again from over at Technologo.us. The summer is starting to heat up, so why not keep cool by staying indoors and reading RGS and Technologo.us!

Make Prime Minister John Howard say what you want, like:

He said to me, just now " I love cock and I believe the biggest cock is the President of the United States!" It’s true!

Ode to Zach Braff, just hit the front page of YouTube.

“I don’t care what you say, in a non-gay way I love Zach Braff…”

Who am I?
I am Shea Gunther. I’m an Eco-Entrepreneur, Publisher of Green Options, Editor of the Green Report, and a new guest blogger here at Random Good Stuff. I am a links and news junkie and run across a lot of funny/strange/crazy shit every day that I will share with the good readers of RGS from time to time. Look for me on StumbleUpon.

I’d say I would scale up to Chubaka.

It seems everyone is obsessed about their weight these days. Too fat, too thin, size zero this, obese that. The whole weight debate is enough to make you want to smash up the bathroom scales and start again.

And that’s pretty much what the makers of the hilarious Celebrity Weighing Scales have done, because they’ve dispensed with traditional units of measurement and replaced them with the names of celebrities, historical figures and even a few calorifically-challenged fictional characters.

With this deeply ironic set of scales you get to compare your weight with the likes of Fozzie Bear, Mr Ed (yes, the talking horse!), Donald Trump’s Combover and even the Baby Jesus. Just think, with a set of Celebrity Weighing Scales in the bathroom you’ll be itching to step aboard, not dreading the prospect. After all numbers are so final, aren’t they?

Even if you couldn’t give a fig about your weight, you’ll want to use these scales every day just to see which iconic figure you’re currently on par with. Of course most of us would prefer to achieve parity with Stephen Hawking ( sans wheelchair ) or Goldie Hawn, not Big Daddy or Half of John Candy. But even if the reading isn’t to your liking, at least you’ll have a giggle looking. Besides, in today’s celeb-centric society it’s rather comforting to know you weigh the same as King Kong or the Karate Kid. Sort of.
