Fucking Brilliant

I'm in football overload, then along comes this.

Love Ronaldo's kiss, that look, Materazzi's fends, and even the intercepted crap cross field pass.

I'd have to agree it's the greatest ad I've ever seen.

Read 'The Death Zone' then ask what's wrong with this utube vid

Matt Dickenson's book makes the utube torch coverage look like bullshit. Clues:
- Conditions
- Numbers
- The group lower down watching
- Alertness
- The mountain closure
- Credible independent confirmation
Guy Cotter and co won't be commenting anytime soon but I'm picking plenty of others will.

I've been wrong before and want to go to China again one day.

Why I Won't Try P

Don't show your kids this.
"stimulation can be measured by the levels of the neurotransmitter, dopamine, created in the brain. Normal levels would be 100. Sex is 200."

and P is .....

Tim, you're a great guy but I hope you're bullshitting with this one as well "Surveys show the majority of New Zealand teenagers will try it, yet only 10 per cent become regular users."

Scary stuff.
I'll stick to bonking, running and fishing thanks.

Do your spadework

Ever had that "Oh Shit !" feeling?
I can bluff a 20k run but not 36ks which is why I pulled the pin on 42ks around Rotorua 4 weeks out. Next year.

Not quite so smart was the time I jumped from the speaders of Ivan Erceg's yacht and got that feeling half way down. Even dumber given the mast moved when I pushed off. I got lucky in spite of my bad judgement and all the De Bortoli Karen and Fiona kindly poured.

A couple of others who should have done the spade work and pulled the pin:
- Ronaldo "I score not so hot chicks"
- Princes Wharf jumper
Could have been any of us :) Nah, maybe not.
