  2. I’ve been a dancer, a bicycle driver, a horse back rider, a long distance swimmer (some lakes, river Rhine, Mediterranean Sea …) – I taught thousands of kids how to swim, play hockey or basketball – so I enjoyed to introduce the photo above of that female native Indian basketball team in Mexico: to know to have a body, can mean so much joy …

  7. It would be so much prettier in Brooklyn if everyone painted their homes a different color. Instead it’s all the same gray, white and brown.

    Mexico Police Shoot It out With 4 Teen Car Thieves – ABC News (abcnews.go.com) –

    visit link above:
    there’s a problem with rich drug dealers there; but who made them rich? US-parallel youth societies I suppose; is it possible, to inztegrate them again, bringing them back to normality? via sports? social working? in Germany the media try to be kind to parallel societies adoring brutality, drugs, neo-Nazi-music scene etc. – in Rio de Janeiro military occupies parts of the city to make the area clean for some sports events next year – I wonder what will be the best method to handle the problem.

    my last comment, related to the youth culture, adoring methods of violence, in the news magazine DER SPIEGEL:
    (sorry in German language):
    Dass Sido und Bushido es bis in den SPIEGEL schaffen, hat nichts mit Ironie zu tun, nichts mit Freundschaft, auch nichts mit Angeln. Es hat zu tun mit einer höhnisch sich ausweitenden klammheimlichen Unterstützer-Szene. Traurig, dass der Kniefall vor Unverschämtheiten nicht nur die Musikszene vergiftete, sondern nun (mit verlogenem Gehabe) in Talkshows und seriöse Printmedien Einzug hält!

    Beautiful tropical colors! Frida Kahlo had such a tragic, tortured life. Did you know that her father, Carl Wilhelm Kahlo, was born in Pforzheim, Germany? I love Frida Kahlo’s folk art/surrealist style of painting. Great post FrizzText!
