This is some pretty amazing motor cycle formation riding. Taken in the 1960s apparently. Whoever choreographed this routine had a good mind.

This Ferrari was knitted by 22 year old art student Lauren Porter from London England. It took her 10 Months to complete. Better her than me, I don’t know if I would have the patience to have spent that much time, unless of course you coud stick a motor in it and take off down the street.

This video shows some amazing footage of the relatively new craze of extreme scooter riding. It seems to have evolved so quickly. The best is saved for last so it is worth the few minutes of watching.

This is extreme skating at its most extreme, the air that these guys get is absolutely amazing. It’s a far cry from my cruising down the end of my street on my HANG TEN skateboard in the early eighties.

I sort of sympathize with this… we all are sick of this.



What ancients did for us - The INDIANS 2/6

Archeology has always intrigued me. About 4,500 years ago in present day Pakistan, the Harappan civilization (3,000–1,500 BCE) built what’s thought to be a remarkably advanced, extensive city built on a grid system, of some 30,000 people, totally unheard of before the Roman Empire 2,500 years later.

In this ancient planned city, homes had their own wells, drains and toilets, complete with an underground sewer system comprising of earthenware pipes, a first it seems on our planet. They also had developed an advanced method of casting intricate Bronze statues.

My musical tastes are for the most part Rock, but this piece of bluegrass, performed by Earl Scruggs and friends, obviously talented and very experienced musicians, I really like… hope you do too.

Now whilst on the topic of music I like, I have to say I hate Country and Western! They can take there sorry stories of lost love, their dog dying, being out on the prairie, being God fearing and they can also take their huge hats and belt buckles and stuff it.

Boy do I hate Country and Western, and the inane conservatism sooo much that in my last few operations to repair some injuries, just prior to being put under, I told the anesthetist. “I hate Country and Western.” Taken aback and possibly not sure what he’d heard, he said “Beg your pardon? I told him, “Just in case, my last words will be, I hate Country and Western.” He then burst out laughing and told me he was a musician and he understood.
