You’d like the people that founded the Guinness Book of Records, benson.
Norris and Ross McWhirter, both also political activists on our side of the fence. Ross was murdered by the IRA.

benson – any hot chicks at that computer convention?

dona- omg- I just tried the mirror writing thing. I did it! Never tried that before. Finally, the ability to write in ink without smearing across the page! 🙂

I once went after the world’s record for “swinging on a tire”. When the Guiness’ Book of World Record was first becoming popular in the early 70’s, my high school friends scanned it to see if there were any records that could be easily broken. I happened to come upon the category of “most cycles swinging on a tire”. I forgot what the number was, but it was not that high. I pounced on the opportunity. I spent a whole day in a friend’s backyard in Staten Island swinging on a tire. I didn’t beat the record, however – I faded out.

I did, however, have a tire imprint on my arse for three days after.

spank bank???? LOL
