Sometimes it's hard to be me. I mean, I have a burning desire to get all inky but I’ve been having trouble finding source material for flash that is up my alley. You see, my interests range far and wide like a sparrow in s spring breeze. Firstly, I really, really like competitive synchronized swimming. It’s a fantastic sport that embodies all the graceful athleticism that people have to offer. The choreography, the difficult swim moves, the sportsmanship, the scent of chlorine in the air, the cool looking nose plug dealies, the sweet bathing caps and pointed toes all add up to a symphony of viewing entertainment. For me at least, it is a totally and completely visceral experience. From the moment that the athletes exit the change rooms and move towards the gently undulating surface of the watery arena, dip gracefully under the surface, take their positions and wait for the technical support person located high atop the swim arena to push the play button on the carefully selected musical accompaniment CD and launch into the frenzy of sweat and beauty, artistry and fascination, joyful states of being that alternate between wet and less wet, in and out of the water it can be almost too much to bear witnessing. Never mind trying to bring the whole thing to the mind of a casual reader.

Many publications dealing with the art of body adornment completely miss this sport as a source of inspiration for designs and that, my friend, is what we call around these parts at least, a crying shame. My other great passion is the passionate sniffing of bicycle seats on warm spring days. I know that this may seem odd or even socially unacceptable to some people having only unenlightened perceptions and prejudices to help them to understand the world around them. Notwithstanding the aforementioned, there is similarly a dearth of flash on this inestimably interesting topic. I know I would be the talk of the town, the finest adorned clown, wearing a crown of excellence and all if I could only get a nose and a bicycle seat inked upon my chest. I would proudly go naked from the waist up and parade around the town if only I could get a brightly coloured piece like that. This just goes to show that you really have to look around for good sources of these materials.
