A man from Al Ain is 135-years old according to the details on his identity card, and he says daily prayers and a healthy lifestyle have helped him reach the ripe old age.

Nasir Al-Hajry says he remembers historical events that occurred more than a century ago such as the Tribes War in the Arab Island, UAE daily Khaleej Times reported on Thursday.

His family plan to contact the Guinness Book of World Records after seeing his identity card.

The man claims to have attended the Arabian Revolution against Turkish imperialism in 1916 and the Arab Island’s wars during the First World War (1914-1918).

Al Hajry said that visiting the mosque five times daily was his only social activity now.

court refuses obscene name change

A New Mexico appeals court on Friday ruled against a Los Alamos man who wanted to change his name to a phrase containing a popular four-letter obscenity

refused his request to change his name to "F-- Censorship!"

The man - whose current legal name is Variable - argued on appeal that it was improper government censorship to deny him the name change

The man has the right to call himself whatever he wants, unless there's fraud or misrepresentation involved, the judges said.

But once he seeks court approval for a name change, the court has the authority to turn him down on several grounds, including if the name is offensive to common decency and good taste, the judges ruled.

That law was clarified in a 2004 case in the same court that apparently involved the same petitioner. In that case, an Albuquerque man whose name was Snaphappy Fishsuit Mokiligon got the go-ahead from the appeals court to change his name to Variable.

A new library allows readers to borrow people for a 30-minute chat. Here's the experience of one man who offered himself as a human book

instead of books, readers can come to the library and borrow a person for a 30-minute chat.

The human “books” on offer vary

healthy cross-section of stereotypes

list included Police Officer, Vegan, Male Nanny and Lifelong Activist as well as Person with Mental Health Difficulties and Young Person Excluded from School. I was there as Gay Man.

First out were Social Worker (“naive”) and Immigrant (“wasting resources”) and then Muslim (“beard”) was borrowed for a quick chat, presumably about bombs and his attitude to women.

introduced to my first reader, a young Romanian woman

We launched into a frank conversation about how much seeing two men kissing in Leicester Square had unexpectedly upset her

Back in the shelving room, the conversation was alive with first impressions. “Have you been borrowed yet?”

clipper's remarks: Lose the Cat
A man hated his wife's cat and he decided to get rid of it. He drove 20 blocks away from home and dropped the cat there. The cat was already walking up the driveway when he approached his home.

The next day, he decided to drop the cat 40 blocks away but the same thing happened. He kept on increasing the number of blocks but the cat kept on coming home before him.

At last he decided to drive a few miles away, turn right, then left, past the bridge, then right again and another right and so on until he reached what he thought was a perfect spot and dropped the cat there.

Hours later, the man called his wife at home and asked her, "Jen is the cat there?"

"Yes, why do you ask?"answered the wife.

Frustrated the man said, "Put that cat on the phone, I am lost and I need directions."
