Mudcheck introduced himself to me in the highwayman.

Seeing this thread always makes me wonder just how many of you i do meet on a day to day basis, or walk past, or cross the road in front of you as you drive somewhere etc. then it starts to freak me out to remember that you are actually out there so i stop thinking about it. Things like this are probably why some people subscribe to the theory of solipsism, there is probably some comfort in believing that you are all just figments of the imagination!

Dont start giving out awards for thread necromancy, i don't want that damn martial arts one that references me in it to surface for a 4th or is it 5th time! my student take the piss for weeks whenever it happens!

I had such a great respect for Mr Moore, he always took the time to encourage theological/philosophical debate, regardless of where the debate took us. And i will always appreciate him sharing his emotions and what went on in his mind during the birth of his daughter, a story which was relevant to the lesson at the time, but was something so deeply personal many teachers would not have dared to share. Mr mills was a great teacher and very funny, but he had a nickname for me which annoyed the hell outta me! Dr. McNally, wow, how she used to shout at me! we often got into blazing shouting matches across her classroom and i was in more trouble due to being in her class in my GCSE year than i was in for all my other classes combined. Little did she know that i had a massive crush on her!! Only ever had Mr Cole for 1 lesson, he was filling in for an absent teacher, he did the lesson on the events leading up to world war 1, it was first time i had heard about the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand, but he presented the material with such passion, and with a great method of recapping and nut-shelling what we had just heard that it has stuck with me so well i can remember the entire lesson even though it was nearly 20 years ago, and i couldn't tell you what i did last monday!

This thread is called "best of youtube" not inane internet banality!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBwIRq_hmjg&feature=fvw funny and uplifting interview with a former leader of the KKK.

interesting, i have about 75 old tyres at my new training facility that need to be gotten rid of, and so far every inquiry i have made tells me that it will cost me. im not spending any money on them as they are not mine and i have only inherited them by bad fortune, i.e. the previous owner has abandoned them.

it seems to me that damning all hippies in general based on your dislike of this specific incident is going a bit far. i have met some very nice "hippies" who far from thinking the world owed them something, they felt that they owed the world and tried hard to give back to the earth.

im offended, the announcer says "this had some MMA qualities to it" Hair pulling and striking the spine are both against the rules in MMA. we are far more civilised in MMA than those football hooligans. ok im not really offended, perhaps mildly irritated.

chinahand this link needs a warning attached. the stupid ! it burns! i was rendered unconcious by the stupid in this video.

i approve of this wholeheartedly.

i havent kept up with the martial arts movie scene for a long while now, the more practical my own training became the less interest i had in the flash and fancy stuff of Hong Kong cinema. i though i was about due a catch up and one of my students had been going on to me about "never back down", so i watched it, boy what a let down! paints MMA in such a bad light. i havent caught any of tony Jaa's stuff but i might get round to it.

pretty much any of the fight scenes from Jet Li fist of Legend, a (better than the original) remake of Bruce lee's Fist of Fury, but these two in particular are short and awesome. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6z79bC4Lux0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McmjKPvgHkQ...feature=related for another amazing jackie chan fight scene check out this one from miracles: Miracles has to be one to own for any serious jackie chan fan, the plot is hilarious the fight scenes are all awesome and its production values are much higher than the standard JC fare.

http://www.youtube.com/user/andromedaswake?blend=1&ob=4 just a quick link to an account i have recently subscribed to on youtube. andromedaswake deals with astronomy, he has a some cool vids called welcome to the universe and quite a few debunking creationist and biblical astronomy nonsense (which was how i found him) enjoy.
