America's Pastime


The video above has been circulating around the web for the past few days. It is amazing, or as Dashiell Bennet from DEADSPIN puts it,"It's like the Citizen Kane of stadium fan fight clips." It does the video no justice for me to try and describe what transpires. You have to watch it for yourself. Ok, done? Pretty great stuff huh? I was impressed by all parts of this video. My good friend Shrek made a terrific point.

about the 8 sec mark where the young kid sneaks in a ballsy sucker punch for no reason. he' s well on his way to an illustrious bar fight record in his 20's.

I could not agree more. Look at that form! This kid is setting himself up(with the proper training) to become the ultimate cheap shot artist. If things go right I can see him making a name for himself in high school by running into fights that his friends are in, delivering a cheap punch or kick, and then running away. If he really applies himself I don't think that it is out of the question that he upgrades to using weapons by college. Let's keep our eye on this youngster.

Warren Buffet's simple life
In an hour-long interview with CNBC, Warren Buffet, the world’s second-richest man who has donated $31 billion to charity, revealed some interesting aspects of his life:

1) He bought his first share at age 11 and he now regrets that he started too late !

2) He bought a small farm at age 14 with savings from delivering newspapers.

3) He still lives in the same small 3 bedroom house in mid-town Omaha, that he bought after he got married 50 years ago. He says that he has everything he needs in that house. His house does not have a wall or a fence.

4) He drives his own car everywhere and does not have a driver or security people around him.

5) He never travels by private jet, although he owns the world's largest private jet company.

6) His company, Berkshire Hathaway, owns 63 companies. He writes only one letter each year to the CEOs of these companies, giving them goals for the year. He never holds meetings or calls them on a regular basis.

7) He has given his CEO's only two rules. Rule number 1: Do not lose any of your share holder's money. Rule number 2: Do not forget rule number 1.

8) He does not socialize with the high society crowd. His way to pass time after he gets home is to make himself some pop corn and watch television.

9) Bill Gates, the world's richest man met him for the first time only 5 years ago. Bill Gates did not think he had anything in common with Warren Buffet. So he had scheduled his meeting only for half hour. But when Gates met him, the meeting lasted for ten hours and Bill Gates became a devotee of Warren Buffet.

10) Warren Buffet does not carry a cell phone, nor has a computer on his desk.

11) His advice to young people: Stay away from credit cards and invest in yourself.
