In African country of Ghana an old TV, VCR or Boombox make you a rich man. Not a lot of people there can afford this kind of things. Ghanaian artist Philip Kwame Apagya can make you look wealthy at least in the photos - traveling with a plane, TV, PC and other stuff an average Ghanaian can't afford.

Geee, awful quite in here.
A professor is sent to darkest Africa to live with a primitive tribe. He spends years with them, teaching them reading, writing, math and science.
One day the wife of the tribe's chief gives birth to a white child. The tribe is shocked, and the chief pulls the professor aside and says, "Look here! You're the only white man we've ever seen and this woman gives birth to a white child. It doesn't take a genius to figure out what happened!"
The professor replied, "No, Chief. You're mistaken. What you have here is a natural occurrence, what we in the civilized world call an albino! Look at that field over there. All of the sheep are white except for one black one. Nature does this on occasion."
The chief was silent for a moment, then said, "Tell you what. You don't say anything more about that sheep and I won't say anything more about that white kid."

A college pizza delivery boy arrived at the house of Larry Johnson. He delivered the pizza to his trailer. After giving it to him, Larry asked, "What's the usual tip?"

"Well," replied the boy, "this is my first trip here, but the other guys say if I get a quarter out of you, I'll be doing great."

"Is that so?" snorted Larry, "Well, just to show them how wrong they are, here's five dollars."

"Thanks!" replied the youth, "I'll put this in my school fund."

"What are you studying in school?" asked Larry.

The kid smiled and said, "Applied psychology."

Time-lapse video captures 12,225-mile road journey across America... in just FIVE minutes

A freelance photographer took to the road for inspiration and came back from his trip with a time lapse video speeding across 12,225 miles in just under five minutes.

Brian DeFrees, 25, took a two month road trip across the United States to visit places he had never been and catch up with relatives along the way. The fact that he is a freelance photographer helped him lend a goal to the project, as he hoped turn the trip into a creative piece of some sort at the end.

'I wanted to inspire people to go out and take a trip of their own, whether they live in the U.S. or not- there are a lot of parts of it that you haven't seen then hopefully you'll go out and see,' Mr DeFrees told MailOnline.

Though he set out by himself in his Honda Civic Si, Mr DeFrees was happy to go it alone, if only for a few days.

'I know enough people across the country to only go a couple days by myself, but I have to say I really didn't mind [being alone] that much. Another part I really enjoyed was only having the belongings that i had in my trunk, it was kind of freeing,' he said.

Starting his journey on August 8 in his hometown of Syracuse, New York, Mr DeFrees then headed south along the east coast, hitting eight states along the way.


By attaching a digital camera to his wind shield that had a program installed to instantly take photos every five seconds, Mr DeFrees was able to drive and shoot at the same time.

He continued his trip heading west along the Gulf of Mexico before getting to Texas and driving up the historic Route 66.

'I went on Route 66 from Amirillo, Texas to Arizona and that was really cool,' he told MailOnline. 'I was just trying to stay on the old roads and stay in the old towns.'

Given the frequency of the digital shots, viewers are able to see the evolution of rain clouds along the side of highways. Differences in climate also prove entertaining, going from sunny Los Angeles and it's palm tree-lined streets to the snow capped Rocky Mountains in Colorado Springs.
