Anybody fancy earning £10 000 for doing absolutely nothing?

Death grip

On the walk back from work today.

Me: I'm thinking about taking kung fu lessons to keep fit. I mean I might as well, most people seem to naturally assume I know kung fu anyway.

Three Lions One Tiger

Euro 2004 isn't the Three Lions' this time around because of Urs Meier's gross refereeing ineptitude... But could Wimbledon 2004 be one Tiger Tim's? Whatever happens, let's just get Boris Becker out of the commentary box! I can put up with Alan Hansen's stock phrases like <scottish accent>"chance after chance after chance"<scottish accent> but Boris is just too much!

Who supports Spurs?

swiss flagIt's a well known fact that some of the worst footballers in the world play for Tottenham Hotspur. What's less well known is that if you can't get in to play there, you still might have a shot at the Swiss national side. So, come on England, I'm predicting 5-0 tomorrow, especially as I hear the English fans have been roughing up the opposition a bit off the field. Have you noticed? Almost every Swiss supporter has a great big white bandage on them!

Euro 2004

If you live in Europe, then it can't have escaped your attention that Euro 2004 started yesterday! I found a new thing on BBC sport that replays goals and incidents virtually, just in case you couldn't see the TV coverage. It's called "Virtual Replay." A brilliant idea. I work in 3d graphics and simulation so it's especially interesting to me to find that this sort of thing is taking off in sport (there's Channel 4's Hawkeye and Virtual spectator who do yachting, rallying, etc) and even game shows like Time Commanders.

Anyway, back to Euro 2004 and completely unrelated to 3d graphics, my Tournament Predictor might interest you if you want to see who the team you're supporting could meet in later rounds. The BBC sport one does scores too.
