True Colours AND NoT bAd increases

And now, one of my favourite tunes of 1984. Americans, they just can't spell worth a darn.


We all have our own set of "true colours", and I think it's a shifting changeling coat we wear. The insides remain pretty much the same, though, don't they? I mean, when you get down to physical components and stuff. They stay the same.

I wonder what "not bad" truly signifies. Logically, it means "good". "Not bad, not bad at all" is often used for superlatives, I guess. So why does it make me laugh?
Well, just once in my life, I'd like someone to skip using the word "bad" in the same sentence as my creativity.
Calling creativity "bad" or "good" is kinda superfluous. It's really an individual thing, and the fact that we all have different ideas about it is part of the human equation. The human equation is still being solved;)


(Psycho-crazy bad isn't relevant here. You know who you are, and you don't read here anyway. I HOPE!!)


Creativity is part of breathing, really. Aren't you creative everytime you are alive? Heck, your body is busy creating stuff, your mind can't help itself. It's part of everyday, even if everyday seems boring.


I keep pointing out the obvious, and hopefully, someday, someone out there might get it better. That's mainly why I type, so that I can try to get it, only better.

Not bad, eh?

Oh, and weirder news of the day, Indonesia has voted to ban women riding motorbikes astride. They have to sit side-saddle. Ayup. Open legs bad, closed legs good. It's amazing, isn't it? Some things never change.

I found a way-cool link by an Irish trainer, and hey, just the word Irish gets me to post this:)
I'm tired of trying to explain the obvious. No, really, I am. That's part of my uniquely offensive charm:) And I bet this lass can explain it very, very well. This technique is ignored by many barrel girls/BOYS?? as they hit their barrel. Square up the turn, and voila. No shoulder smackage of the barrel. But what do I know, right? I am ancient, and everything has changed since 30 and 40 years ago. Except, ya know? It really hasn't. How much would GoLightly sell for today, do you wonder? I don't anymore. His price would be about the same.

Anywho, sorry, this post is all over the place. Like me.


This video makes me sad.

 But this video never, ever does:)



And, just to be fair, there is a commonality to the art of falling over a horses' head. Can you see the similarity in start position?
