And the winners are...

I have officially submitted my ballot for this years elections. Of course I voted Obama, No on 2, 4 and 8. Those are no brainers. I liked the idea of having a train take you from LA to SF within 2.5 hours, so I voted yes there. And, as always I'm supporting more funding for schools and keeping the streets safe. This time next month we can celebrate our victories and probably chalk up another 4 years in London if McCain/Palin wins.

Mightnight Juggernaughts

I've been seriously behind on updating my blog and have quite a few stories to publish, but first things first. I saw this great band that made me wish they had more than one cd at the end of their show. These lads are from the land down under and they were well received as you can see from the video below. They are a sci-fi/bowie/kraftwork inspired synth-disco band. Oh, it reminded me of DM at the Rose Bowl way back when OMD and Thomas Dolby were also on the bill. This pic is funny because I was in the midst of recording the footage as the pic was snapped.

Business At Niketown

Last night after work I had some business to attend to at NikeTown in Oxford Circus. On August 31st 1,000,000 people from around the world and I will run the Nike Human Race. This is a 10K that will be run in 25 cities from all around the world on that same day. You can choose from 3 charities (UNHCR, Livestrong, or WWF) for the proceeds of the registration and any other donations you would like to make will go to. The race packet that I picked up included an awesome red Nike dry fit shirt commemorating the run with the names of all the cities participating on the back. They also include a chip to tie to your shoe to get performance feedback on your time, distance, pace and calories burned.

Carlos Tevez also had some business to attend to at NikeTown yesterday; however I’m certain he will not be running the Human Race this year. Maybe the £35 million dollar man ($66,515,360) was trying on some new trainers? Maybe he was working on his Guy Ritchie directed Nike Take It film. Or maybe he was doing some work on a new Nike Joga Bonito video? Who knows what this Argentinian phenom had up his sleeve. All I know is that I made an exceptional choice picking him for my English Premier Fantasy Football team.
