Sabine Schmitz trying to go round the Nordschleife (the world's most infamous race track) in under 10 minutes. To put that in perspective, a top driver in a fast Ferrari or Porsche will do a lap in 7-8 minutes...
How about some of Hall of Fame manager Tommy Lasorda's profanity-filled post-game interview classics?

It sucks how that girl was so quick to steal his stuff. The old man was more in the right (crazy as he was), as he attempted to avoid escalating it by moving away. That's one of the reasons I moved out of the city, too many people running around with that prison mentality. Too crazy for me, I'll sit back and watch it on youtube, LOL.
Yeah well thats the best part of it for me. It's a snapshot into generational divide. Where the young fella is chirpen like a flavour of the month rap guy, while Epic Beard Man is from the Tradition of "when in doubt knock em out".
I love it. It takes me a waaaay back when i raised my voice and cussed in the presence of my mom and my grandpa.
It's not the same generational divide when I was younger. Nobody in my parents' generation smoked pot for their arthritis (or would even have considered it).
Personally I cannot stand Rap music or hip-hop, however my son, in an ongoing effort to turn me on to this form of artistic expression, e-mailed this to me the other day.
Its an interview with Immortal Technique, and indie artist.
Wow DR, thanks for that. This guy seems very intelligent and well-grounded. This interview actually makes me want to seek out his stuff and give a listen.

Well its a funny thing how the circle completes earl. I can remember with absolute clarity trying to sway my Dad on some of the bands i was listening to at the time. He just thought it was noise. I'd show hiim the lyrics from the album insert, and the day he approved of Rush's A Farewell To Kings, was really really cool, though he still couldnt get past Geddy;s voice or the "electric sound".
But then he was raised up on the big band sound, and listened to jazz, so for him he could apprecciate what was being said, he just didn't care for the delivery.
Thats pretty much how i feel about rap. There are a few styles that appeal to be rythmically, so I'm not gonna claim 100% of the medium doesn't work for me, as that would be false. But again, thats not any different imo that my mom liking "i never cry" by Alice Cooper, it doesn't mean she is down with 99% of his material.
War Is My Destiny : (Ill Bill featuring Immortal Technique/Max Cavalera)
[Verse 1: Ill Bill] They killed my entire family Murdered and tortured, raped and pillaged I was only five and I was the only surviving witness My entire village burnt to the ground He wore a serpent in his crown Unhappily committed murder with a frown In an army of black-hooded fiery-skulled generals And a sorcerer that could cast spells thatll change your genitals Held me in slavery till I turned eighteen Killed my slave master, five years later became king And I slain dragons and ate stakes during famine Had the seeds of war planted in a dirty tavern Had the seeds of presidents killed in a burst of anger And had their parents bleed to death on the floor of a dirty bathroom I watched their palaces burn, I seen the ashes of my comrades Returned to their family in an urn While a proud child remembers his father that died The cycle continues with vengeance alive in his mind
[Chorus:] Refuse, resist, war is my destiny! Desire unleashed, war is my destiny! Chaos, A.D., war is my destiny! Under a pale grey sky, war is my destiny!
[Verse 2: Immortal Technique] Yeah, yeah, I was an angel before the thud of the stars fell Cast with the sternum from Satan into the pit of hell Our beloved leader forced to be a bottom-feeder The great deceiver that promised victory over the monkey lovers We took a vulturous structure and traitor, fell upon em We ripped his skin off and crowned a new son in the morning A new president to lead our corporation The vengeance on God and Heavens domination But I seduced the daughters of man and made the Nephilim I demanded human sacrifice from the rest of them I became the spirit that tortured and protected them And I built them the tower of language that collected them And then the Lord cried, water falling out from his eyes And my children died drowning in the tears from the sky And it was then that Satan crawled back to me with a plan A design for the ultimate corruption of man See back then we used to set the chosen ones on fire You really think God only sent a single messiah? And so we allowed the birth of many prophets on earth And since the followers were human they were born with a curse They began to claim superiority to their brothers And for eighty-five thousand years conquered each other And when they prayed before battle they were praying to me Killing in Gods name cause war is my destiny!
