Muhammad Ali Speaking On How People Only Respect Wealth (Video)
April 3, 2012
While talking with a few friends of mine about how athletes & many rap artists today don’t get behind any causes other than their own I was reminded of this interview Muhammad Ali did back in the day. He spoke about how most people are sheep until you can lure them in & then give them the message you’re really trying to get across. Unlike Ali, the majority of preachers, evangelists, athletes, & rap artists today aren’t delivering any real message with what they are doing. I guess it makes sense to be flossy if there is some sort of purpose behind it.

Blind Man Goes For A Spin In Google’s New Driverless Car (Video)

We posted something similar to this a few months back, but imagine how the blind gentleman in the video must feel about the possibility to have more freedom in his life than what he’s currently able to enjoy at the moment. Check out more video below….

Skateboarder Tom Schaar, 12, Makes History Landing First Ever 1080 Off 70 Foot Ramp (Video)
April 1, 2012
I’m not a skateboard enthusiast but I do marvel as many of the things cats are doing on their skateboards. I watched it live when legendary skateboarder Tony Hawk landed the first ever 900 off of a quarterpipe wall during the X Games. 12 year old Tom Schaar is a young promising skateboarder who just made history by soaring above a 27-foot quarterpipe wall & spinning three full rotations and landing with his board still underfoot. I remember when people said no one would be able to beat Tony Hawk’s 900 after it was completed. It took a 12 year old skateboarder to prove them all wrong.
