So a while ago I came across an article or maybe a new item that I had to rub my eyes to make sure that it was real.

Knight Warrior: The real life super hero of Salford.
I was amazed that anyone could wear tights in Salford (Greater Manchester UK) without anyone breaking their legs.

Sadly my doubts were less than prudent as the poor guy ended up getting repeatedly punched in the face by some local thugs. I still have to respect the fact that it was due to the wishes of his family and friends that he stopped, rather than out of fear of it happening again. I'm also rather impressed that he was able to do this for 3 years (I think it is now, possibly longer.)

He's also got his own facebook page.

The sun beyond the mountain glows
The yellow river seaward flows
You can enjoy a grander sight
By climbing to a greater height

I have run out of places to climb. I will abandon this body and take to the air. We will leave twin vapor trails in the air, white lines etched into these rocks. I am the aerial. In my passing, I will send news to each and every star.
