Thought of the Day

If real soccer games had camera angles like FIFA 2009, would Americans give in? Think about what we do with football now - cameras hang from wires attached to the stadium lights and zoom around 10 feet above players' heads.

Hockey isn't hockey when you can't see the puck. Soccer isn't soccer when you can't see all 11 guys passing and attacking in harmony.

Thought of the Day

It's been pouring for most of the day in Los Angeles, so much so that waves of water were splashing over the freeway median barriers on the way to work.

So here's a thought for you: Do you drive in absolute speeds or in relative speeds?

In other words, do you always drive 5 MPH over the speed limit, or is it really that you drive 5 MPH faster than the average car next to you on the road?

On days like today, the speed limit doesn't apply - everyone is driving underneath it - but yet I still find myself passing people at the same rate as I normally do.

Thoughts?
