Wednesday

It was lovely and cold last night! This of course meant that I slept better. I am getting used to the laptop, it's a very nice one, I watched 'Murderball' last night. Zupan is a Croat namehis father certainly LOOKS like a typical Croat guy, but with all that Celtic tatooing on him there's got to be a good streak of Scottish Irish or maybe even Pictish! :)So maybe his mother is from that background? Not that that matters, Mark Zupan kicks ass and takes names, and I ended up really respecting the whole team. Do see it! the film was entertaining, and very moving but not in a sappy way, in a real way. Sometimes films about people with serious handicaps are very sappy, this film NEVER for a moment let you forget that these guys are men! In fact it took on the touchy subject of how guys who are quads deal with sex.
The games were riveting, I seldom enjoy watching sports but I got so involved with the guys that I was cheering them on. It takes GUTS to play such a rough game as wheelchair rugby, it's a rough game, makes regular able bodied rugger look DULL really really really really DULL by comparison!
Joe Bob says 'check it out!'
