BP Oil spill according to John Clarke

John Clarke's weekly spiel on OZ telly. This played on Graeme Hill's show. JC is genius.

Skimboarding

While we're checking out some surfing... Do you have memories of gliding along on a skim board, across the thin sheet of water left behind as a wave retreats back into the ocean from whence it came? Well check out where the young punks of today have taken it. The sound track is drum and bass, so if that's not your style then turn the sound down and take in the level these guys perform at, they get HAMMERED, but in the process do some amazing stuff!

The genius of John Clarke gives you a clear run down on how the current crisis came about

Best ever World Cup

Monty Python Philosophers World Cup, superb!!!

Yoga for Surfers

Bit a obtuse one here. It's all about MEEEE! I do yoga and I surf (well my version of it anyhow), so it was a bloody pleasant surprise to discover a Yoga for Surfing video series. This is just the intro, and even if your not into either of these pastimes, there are some great surfing shots that don't go on for ever, and some cool looking yoga poses. I bet you end up having a go at it!

Joseph Herscher 'Cremes That Egg'

Here's a brilliant piece of lateral thinking put into 3D by a young kiwi guy Joseph Herscher. His parents are Lyn Lorkin and and Hershal. Renowned music critic William Dart called Lyn "one of New Zealand's cultural treasures". Well Lyn and Hershal gave birth to Joseph and coming from his lineage there was no way he would be anything but talented. I once saw him perform at a Ponsonby Intermediate School talent quest, doing a one man band routine, complete with cymbals on his knees etc. He was brilliant, but I don't know if everyone got it, most of the others were doing some form of hip hop or funky dance routine, but not this guy. This video is the result of Joseph taking up the Cadbury challenge to 'Creme that Egg' a couple of years ago. He came second. I'll post another video of his work next time, he got commissioned by a drink company to create a similar system that poured a drink... Check this: it's genius.

Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, you rock!

Can someone please let the NZ government p**sies out of their sound proofed tax payer funded bunker. I'm sure they must want to voice their opinion about the Japanese Whaling industry... and make no mistake it is an industry... plundering whales annually in an area designated a "sanctuary" (ie, do not whale here!) As the incredibly courageous Peter Bethune sits in a Japanese jail, Murray McCully, John Key and their muffled mates are displaying an incredible lack of conviction, courage and vision. They don't give a s**t about anything but the MONEY baby!. Whether or not you agree with how the Sea Shepherd goes about its business, surely if you have any kind of balls you can have some regard for their passion for fellow mammals, folks we're talking about living, breathing, placental creatures here. Here is a trailer for a film about Sea Shepherd called, At The Edge of The World.
