I wonder how many people have been seriously injured or killed because they were trying to make a video that would go viral?

 Stupid is a matter of perspective , to most people the simple act of riding a motorcycle looks pretty stupid .

Yeah, I know, it's all really the same, nobody is really bad, nobody is stupider than anyone else, everything is relative, everything is a matter of perspective ... Oh my I feel good now.

Many of us regularly disobey speed limits.

The difference between being a scofflaw and being an idiot comes down to where you think it's appropriate to excercise the 'Go Handle'.

Having just spent two months in Europe I can honestly say that if I lived here I really wouldn't need a Griso, (Not that I *Need* one anyway but you get what I mean?). On the first ten weeks of this trip Jude and I were raving about how good the Mana would be! Today it was 10*C in north western Germany. We're glad we're in the car, horrid though it is!

We spent the morning at the sight of Varus's defeat and the battlefield of the 'Lost Legions'. Google or Wicki it if your knowledge of Roman history is slim. It was a turning point in Empire. Even today you can see how the Tutteburgher (Sp.) forest would of been a ghastly place for the Roman legions to fight, especially against a horde consisting of many Roman trained auxiliaries who knew their tactics.

It was one of the worst military defeats the Romans suffered and set the boundary for Germanic expansion. Varus's suicided after the defeat and three standards were lost and never recovered. That just 'Didn't Happen' in the first century AD.
