[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAbqyGkxJq4[/youtube] There's nothing wrong with this earth except the people who live within...Know yourself mankind Following the riots in Tottenham the rest of London is getting their licks in.

Here we go again – death in police custody

I wondered what it would take to get me blogging again. After being disillusioned with the continued black on black violence, I just felt like a voice in the wilderness decrying it's stupidity.

Are trainers really that great in the snow? A lot of Timberlands out tod ...
