Now I am not into skateboarding in any way shape or form, but credit where credit is due - this stuff is VERY impressive. This is Rodney Mullen, who would be one of the more famous skateboarders in the world, and would probably be ranked above Tony Hawk by skateboard fans (Tony Hawk sells out, thats why the rest of the worlld hears about him).
Anyway check it out. The music is shit, so you'll have to turn it down.

...more to English
While discussing my recent post on the healthy progession of the English language, I was reminded (by Neeve McShoe...kudos!) how cruel the language is to people who have speech impediments.
Examples:
Lisp... for people who can't pronounce 'S', that's a bit much.
Stutter... could you fit any more 'T's in that word?? Why not add a few hyphens...
and to add spice, Jonathan Ross' parents must have been a laugh ("I'm Jonaphan Woth").
Still... shows you what a progressive Language it is, can laugh at itself so gracefully.

Anyone else think there is a scary similarity between Dawn French and Cherie Blair? ... quite a disturbing thought really.

Possibly the greatest ad of all time.
This is the Nike Soccer Ad used during the promotion of the 2002 World Cup. Brilliant idea, brilliantly executed. Nike has established a bit of a reputation for themselves of producing great football ads...some of which will be posted here soon.
