Free Running

with 7 comments

Browsing somewhere, I just can’t remember (I am poor at keeping bookmarks), I saw a link pointing to http://kswissfreerunning.com. A viral marketing site (is that correct?).

A simple site, type in a few letters and express yourself. What it does is to download pre-recorded images of Foucan (was he not that guy running from James Bond in the new Casino Royale?) free-running around those characters. Yours truly decided to find out how many characters they had pre-recorded. http://kswissfreerunning.com/?m=4c0392afeb91ed9eaaee2f3744836231

I was somehow disappointed, I would have expected them to create different types of runs per character and pick them randomly, giving a better impression of free running.Try and type a character, like say, 15 times, the guy just keeps repeating himself. Boring :(

Foucan - Free Running

Too bad, numbers (by way of consequence “9″) were not included. Had to make do with free running – nigeriasite. That links shows all possible characters.

I had a discussion with a friend over the weekend, concerning christians and movies. Bone of contention: a pornographic movie laying on my brother’s bed (dropped there by me while rearranging my room, and yes the movie is mine). Transcript (as much as I remember)

Him: this kind of movies are not good for you

Me: why?

Him: they corrupt your soul and mind

Me: how?

Him: because, after watching them, you get feelings which you should not have

Me: urges to have sex?

Him: yes.

Me: ok, I agree, but what of horror movies

Him: they are still ok, not as bad as porn

Me: so a porn provides a greater sin than action/horror/war/*whatever* kind of films

Him: i did not say so

Me: so, a pornographic movie corrupts your soul, yet a horror movie (obviously showing off the devil’s power) does not corrupt your soul

Him: no not really, but its still easier to watch a horror movie than a porno

Me: and how is that? prove it.

Him: do you know how many women get raped in Africa daily?

Me: do you know how many people get shot in America because someone watched an action movie?

Him: but that’s them, we are us.

Me: so in your view, action and horror films are good for us blacks and porn is good for whites?

Him: do you have that cash to lend me or not?

Obviously, end of discussion. Got me thinking, its alright to watch an action/sci-fi/war/horror flick, yet a pornographic movie is an abomination. Who are we kidding?

Him: well, different people have different ways of handling things they see and hear

Me: which means
