At Spa Park, last Sunday, a BMX world record

Jed, a 24 years-old from Taupo, was attempting to break a WW record on BMX, namely to do a triple 360 on his bike. There was even cheering messages on the library board. Okay, this time I was not watching live because, ahem, I went to the contest of Taupo Mainstream and, man, it visually hurts when they falls. But these guys can fly on their bike... The other reason would be that now, Mano does go to BMX every now and then with his mate Nate....

Gin on Pink

The Charlatans - Blackened blue eyes

"A charlatan, I
Noble and wild
Hustling for tricks to help you feel loved
And we all need a shoulder to cry on
Once in a while

And there won't be a dry eye in the house tonight

Blackened blue eyes,
I don't care too much for
circumstances or you
situation-wise (...)"

Rachel

Placebo - Plasticine

Beauty lies inside the eye of another youthful dream
That doesn't sell it's soul for self-esteem
That's not plasticine
Beauty lies inside desire and every wayward heart redeemed
That doesn't sell it's soul for self-esteem
That's not plasticine

Don't forget to be the way you are [x4]
