Best Performance?

Laugh and be well - Matthew Green

Spent a lot of time today trying to get the audio of my Tour De France downloads to work. A guy who left a the download link emailed me some Xvid codecs to make it possible to get the audio, but none of them worked. Rendered files, more time wasted. In the end I managed to download a completely new player (called VLC) which I had all along but hadn't noticed a dialog box where you have to click that you want the player (usually it installs automatically). Not long after that I happened across Stage 8 of Le Tour on AFN (at about 3am).

Lance was saying he didn't have a great day, didn't feel so good and his team let him down.

I've also been optimising my computer. And while I've waited for memory and connections to be checked and optimised, I've been optimising myself. Have used my Pilates ball, and started shaving my noggin. Didn't stop there, then started shaving my legs. Then saw in the mirror I'd missed a few spots, then really let rip and started shaving my chest. What's next? Eyebrows?
We westerners are really different creatures to the Koreans. In the pool they are as hairless and glossy, with the same sort of puppy fat appearance naked babies have. We must appear like big lumbering gorillas by comparison.

One of the guys I encountered at the pool today (who'd been drinking, caught the whiff of a brewery) introduced himself as Gumpoh. Who? "Name is like Forrest Gumpoh. Gumpoh."

Some things that catch your eye (or ear), should make you smile.
