I experienced chess boxing for the first time last night. My life will never be quite the same again. A round of speed chess, some fisticuffs, back to the chess board, a bit more face pummeling - what more could a grown man want?

Yes Bar Berlin has updated its website with more 3D panoramic goodness. Note the addition of Yes Residenz, a surreal hotel (or hostel, army camp, jungle cafe, your call).

Regular readers (all 10,000,000 of you) may remember our last visit to Yes Bar Berlin earlier this year.

After posting about the place twice, I owe it to myself to pop in when I’m next in the city.

“Enjoy it…while it lasts” is a series of wooden ice lollies by artist Tim Berg. Digging the orange, digging the wood, so high fives all round Mr. B.

Creativebarn’s “cassette tape closet” is made from 918 cassette tapes that are individually screwed onto a wooden frame. It’s currently being auctioned on eBay, but as it’s such a big bastard it’s probably only worth considering if you’re in the Netherlands.

Icelandic illustrator Siggi Eggertsson has updated his portfolio, and it’s jolly nice.

A man walks up to a shetland pony and asks:
“Do you have a sore throat?”
The pony replies:
“No I’m just a little horse”

Photographer Julian Wolkenstein has some fun with horses, then talks about it in an in depth interview over at the F STOP.

Mumptown is the combined efforts of John Moores University graduates Ceri Jones and Oli Smith. Bless, they even have a blog too!

Adrian Johnson may well be a midget Evertonian, but why hold that against him when he’s doing such nice illustrations.
