"Safer Communities Together"

Well this new youtube hit has a kiwi cop using a bit of humor to warn a young man going to get a pie at the BP station in the early morning.
The use of the NZ police slogan "Safer Communities Together" was used very well.

Enjoy and remember ALWAYS BLOW ON YOUR PIE

All Blacks Shine In The Land Of The RIsing Sun

This afternoon as everyone was thinking the All Blacks cleaned up the Bledisole Cup 4-0 over a lackluster Wallabies side.

The game that was played in Tokyo as a match to hopefully spread the international game into Asia.
The game was mainly a warm up test for the end of season tour into the Northern Hemisphere but with each tran-tasman battle there was no love loss.
Both sides fielding a nearly full strength sides although some of the Australian's were out with injuries because they are all big pussies.

After a close first half which ended 13-16 to the australians the All Blacks rose to the challenge as they always do playing their best football when they needed it. A clinical perfect kicking game from Dan Carter secured the game which finished

32-19 To The Mighty All Blacks.

Words From John

"Its Like I'm in the fourth dimension, and somebody is asking me to describe it verbally. and thats what the fourth dimension is all about, no words, no symbols, no images, all pure real energy and vibrations. And if i thought about how cruel the world this is, i would probably just commit suicide after a while if thats what i spent my energy thinking about. I would definitely not having any strength left to create music" J. Frusciante

The Germans & The Scottish Do It The Best By Far

One of the best known music festivals in Europe and the world being the German Rock am Ring being held every year or so. This concert draws in many thousands probably within the hundred thousands each year.

This year they welcomed back the Scottish pioneer's of dance music "The Prodigy" and they didn't disappoint with an amazing set including all their old and new hits.
This video although long and will take a while for some of you to load (looking at you Brandon) is absolutely amazing to see both the band with amazing lighting and the hundreds of thousands of Germans going off.

Just imagine what it would have been like right in the middle of that crowd.

Getting In Touch With The Red Neck Within Me

Well in this part of Expanding your octaves with James Hastings, we are going down south, where people like to sit on their porch with a shotgun, like to pick cotton and incest is not frowned upon.

Yes thats right bluegrass.

Now i've been listening to quite a bit of bluegrass lately especially Hayseed Dixie that plays some really cool covers of songs. I know this genre of music isn't for everyone and can come really annoying but while listening to one of their albums i came across something miguel and conrad will enjoy. They do a bluegrass cover of I Believe in A Thing Called Love.

I find it very cool and quite funny

My Back And Its Amazing Adventure

Well as i know everyone at school today would have done absolutely nothing except cry in the corner because I wasn't there.

I was planing to come to school today, that plan was crushed this morning when i couldn't get out of bed without causing myself a lot of pain and discomfort. Then when it came to walking and moving my body my back didn't think that was a good idea either so i just took some painkillers and went back to bed with a heat pack on my back.
This evening i went to the physio as my back hadn't got much better through the day and it turns out after a session of the physio managing to find the points that hurt a lot and keep poking them and a small session of electroshock therapy.
He told me that i had damaged the muscle that connects my ribs to my pelvis badly causing pulling and deep spasms and extreme pain.
So hopefully tomorrow i will be back at school unless my back stiffens up again tonight as i'm back at the physio tomorrow afternoon.
