I've been telling people that I was going to put up some sporting links but I haven't had the time. Instead, I've been watching the most disappointing "Fight of the Century" (note: link has already been pulled from You Tube. That's how bad the Tua-Cameron fight was!) thatI have seen, well ,so far this century really. So I thought I'd put some links on that you might like.
Here, quite frankly, is a buskers wet dream. Do you think this guy was shitting himself or not? I'm not a big Bruce fan but he seems like a cool guy. It was his 60th birthday this week so here's to him.
There was a doco made a few years back about people who jump off the Golden Gate Bridge. They put camera's at both sides of the bridge and watched the people walking across. It's a sort of indictment of the San Francisco City Council who are not taking any action to prevent jumpers. The bridge to them, is a Mecca where they come from far and wide to jump. While beautifully and respectfully done it could be disturbing so please don't watch if it's not your cup of tea.
Ted Williams was one of my hero's. Weirdly, his death has taken on a life of it's own. There are so many other levels to this story but this is really rock bottom. Only in America.
Speaking of America, here is another reason for more gun control! Way to go Jethro!
If you have either this or this at your next party ,well, quite frankly I'm not coming.
Greg Easterbrook writes a column about American Football and will mix other things in that I find interesting (science, technology,current affairs etc.). I don't always agree with what he says even though he is more intelligent than most people I know of. He often writes about ignorance in America ,which is ironic, because he often holds a point of view that is out of touch with the rest of the world too. His TMQ column is quite interesting,
but maybe only to me.
I threw a link in my last post to Liam Finn. Here is his dad and uncle from around the time he was born.
If you have any links you'd like to be seen, feel free to share. Meanwhile, I'm watching the beginning of New Zealand and Pakistan match while I'm doing this and they have a midget singing the Pakistani National Anthem in a deep Barry White voice while the women who sang the New Zealand National anthem just made a hash of the whole thing. Welcome to my world!
