Featured Bodybuilder - Alfonso del Río

"As the strong man exults in his physical ability, delighting in such exercises as call his muscles into action, so glories the analyst in that moral activity which disentangles."

Featured Reality TV Star - Rafa Mora

A few hours ago my buddy Dwight Supremacy did a post demanding that We Need Mora - a reference to Spanish reality TV star Rafa Mora - and I couldn't agree Mora more. So here is more Mora...

Happy Hump Day! 

I'd never heard of Rafa before - so I did a little digging and found out that he's 28 years old, was born in Puerto Rico, and now lives in Spain. From what I can find out (most of the info on him is in Spanish), Mora is best known for appearing on a show called 'Mujeres y Hombres y Viceversa'.

But, in all honesty, who really cares about all these pesky facts when Rafa's PICTURES can do the talking for him. Amirite??

The Island Of Giant Bunnies !

This bit of news just couldn't wait until Bunday. Paleontologists have discovered the bones of a pre-historic species of Giant Bunny Rabbit on an island off the coast of Spain:

[...] the skeleton of a giant rabbit has been discovered, one that was once about six times the size of today's bunnies. 

The fossils of the giant were discovered on the island of Minorca off the coast of Spain, a fact reflected in the rabbit's scientific name, Nuralagus rex, "the Minorcan king of the rabbits." 

When the bunny lived approximately 3 million to 5 million years ago, it weighed about 26 pounds (12 kilograms), about six times the size of the living European rabbit.

Sunday In Astoria, Queens

This picture was taken a half-block away from my new apartment (see more pics HERE).  My neighborhood (Astoria) is extremely diverse - but I had no idea there were so many actual Spaniards (or at  least fans of Spanish soccer) around.  After Spain won the World Cup on Sunday I could hear people cheering and horns honking all over my neighborhood.
