Meet the King of All Squatters: Harry Halowes Turns 21 Years of Squatting into $8,000,000 in Land

This is Harry Halowes:

Harry has been living in a discarded junk tent camp right down the hill from a vacant London estate for the past 21 years. A big fat cat billionaire bought the estate, dumped over a hundred million dollars into fixin’ it up, and was shocked when his attempt to boot Squatter Harry from the land was turned away by the courts whose ruling gave Harry rights to his plot of land.

Harry’s lot is now worth nearly $8,000,000. We hope he sells out and gets himself setup with a nice apartment in some swanky part of town. He should have enough left over for a butler and 20 or 30 years of eeeeasy livin’. Not a bad upgrade from a dingy squat lot. Huzzah for Harry.

Bored Japanese Guy + Recycled Chopsticks = Awesome Green Canoe

Shuhei Ogawara, a city hall forestry employee in Fukushima, Japan must have looked around the lunchroom in dismay at all the wasted-single use wooden chopsticks discarded so callously after poking through rice and picking up sashimi.

And then, inspiration struck. Why not build a canoe out of all those chopsticks? What would have been a weird, sort of random idea for most of us came as second nature to Ogawara who also happened to be a canoe-maker (go figure). So anyway, he saved up a boat-load (hahaha!) of chopsticks and built him a canoe. We commend him for his recycling efforts but even more so for his awesome waste of time and extra potentially toxic polyester resin needed to glue all those little sticks together. Where is anime porn when a man needs it?

Crying Out For Greener Office Pranks: What Does 187,000 Post It Notes Look Like

Mr. Cranky Green loves him some pranks as much as the next blogger, but this one strikes me as a little wasteful. Five stars for execution, minus one for sustainability.
