Rick&Dick ironman





The link above is about what can fathers do for their sons. Rick Hoyt was born handicapped, he wasn't able to control his limbs. But that handicap didn't prevent him from running or cycling or even swimming. Because he finished ironman; one of the hardest triathlon contests in the world. Ironman consist of 4km swimming, 129km cycling and 30km runing so only thing Dick Hoyt had to do for his son was carrying him throughout whole way at the age of 65.

Is global warming real??? Where is our snow holiday


I remember good old snow holidays. We wouldn't go to school for over a week, and build some artistic snowman. I remember the days, we sliped down the big hill in my town with my friends on a sleigh. We often ended up crushing into a tree though. Now the snow doesn't seem as white as it seemed to me when I was a child and we don't have those one week holidays anymore. I think I would rather a cup of coffee for watching the snow than to go out and play snowball now. But I'm sorry for the young ones they won't enjoy the snow as we did.
