I just heard the words "Come on, if you're hard enough" uttered on the Today programme on Radio 4. Please can I always start my Monday mornings like this?

In case you're wondering why, it was in relation to this news story: Evan Davis vs. the Karate Kid. The 'kid' in question being the world's youngest holder of a black belt at the age of 5. Appropriately enough, she's in the UK to promote the video game Mini Ninjas!

*grin* Maybe it isn't in India? Her dad is the national champion, so that probably means she can wear what she wants ;)

Hee! I saw that this morning as well. There have been a few ninja kitties on there lately. Very appropriate :D

I heard that just as I was driving into the gates car park at work this morning.

Best Today Programme thing recently was last Thursday's weather:
"Rain in the north, dry in the south, please could some of you in the north send your rain down here as our gardens are parched."

Heh, they do seem to have fun sometimes - I guess by 8.45, they figure anyone still listening is probably in the mood for something lighter :D
