[Moozik: Rosetta Stone - Deeper]

After watching Roger Federer beat Andy Roddick so convincingly in the semi-final of the Australian Open, I really think we're watching history in the making. I've been a Tennis fan for as long as I can possibly remember. As a kid I grew up watching Ivan Lendl dominate throughout the eighties and then later Pete Sampras dominate throughout the nineties. Both were contenders for greatest players of all time.

And then came a man named Roger.

Watching him play today gave a sense that we're witnessing something special. That we're right in the middle of watching the man that will undoubtedly be looked upon as the greatest player of all time when all is said and done. If he wins the title on Sunday he'll still be 4 shy of Sampras in the Grand Slam title count but there can be little doubt that at 25, he still has plenty of time to accomplish that feat. A feat that Sampras himself has said is inevitable.

That story is bloody funny. And the comments even funnier. I liked...

They are also very aggressive and I can vouch for this as I was attacked by a flock and pecked severely while on my way home from flower arranging classes.

...and...

I think the correct solution would be to hack the wings off as many pigeons as possible before joining them together to create one large wing. This could be wafted at the pigeons by any member of the townsfolk when numbers got too high. Children could also shelter under it at times of heavy rain or possibly loud thunder.

Actually there's too many good ones to list ;-)
