Meet Bodhi, the Adorable Pooch Who Works as a Menswear Model for Famous Clothing Brands Posted: 16 Oct 2014 02:04 AM PDT Bodhi the dog has no time for silly pastimes like chasing squirrels or playing fetch – he's quite serious about his high flying career as a top New York menswear model. The four-year-old Shiba Inu is well known in fashion circles as 'Menswear Dog' – he has landed paid modelling contracts with top brands such as Coach, Todd Snyder and Salvatore Ferragamo. He's also a social media sensation with over 140,000 followers on Instagram. Bodhi's owners – Yena Kim, 27, and Dave Fung, 29 – came up with the idea as a joke; they dressed up their adorable Shiba Inu in a few fancy suits and hats. When they posted photographs on their Facebook page, the response they received was overwhelmingly positive. So they started their own Tumblr page featuring Bodhi dressed according to popular fashion trends.

Artist Uses Sharpie to Transform Husband’s Skyline GTR into an Artistic Masterpiece on Wheels Posted: 16 Oct 2014 01:40 AM PDT You don't really need to spend thousands of dollars on Swarovski crystals or hair extensions to give your car a neat makeover. An inexpensive Sharpie can do the job just as well, if you're creative enough. Like this woman who used dozens of Sharpies and put in 100 hours of hard work to convert her husband's 1995 Nissan Skyline GTR into a mind-blowing piece of art. Collen Kelton, a US military officer stationed in Japan, had always hated the dull silver color of his R33 GTR. So he told his then-girlfriend Allison that she could doodle a few scratches on the bumper. But when he saw how beautiful her designs looked, he was compelled to ask her to keep going.

Couple Accidentally Build $680,000 Dream Home on Lot Owned by Someone Else Posted: 15 Oct 2014 11:13 PM PDT You can't help but feel sorry for this Florida couple – their newly constructed dream home is now turning out to be a mega-nightmare. Although Mark Voss and his wife own eighteen residential lots in the gated Ocean Hammock community, their house was accidentally built on one that doesn’t belong to them! "We're in total disbelief," said Mark, who is the owner of a property management and real estate company in Missouri. "We may have moved someday. But, with this headache and grief, we're not so sure. The Midwest is looking pretty good now." The couple said that they purchased the lot – with the address of 23 Ocean Ridge Blvd. – in 2012. Then they hired a company called Keystone Homes to build the three-story, five-bedroom, 5,000-square-foot vacation rental that cost them a whopping $680,000. Six months after the custom house was built, however, a survey crew working nearby realized the error – that the house actually stands on the lot next door to the Vosses' – 21 Ocean Ridge Blvd. North. This one belongs to a North Carolina couple who bought it way back in 2003.
