That photograph comes with a soundtrack, unfortunately is a theme that starts like a storm of cool and them wimps away. But Ishtanchuk totally recommends the first minute of it as gold.

Do you remember the video of a bunch of them jumping on the bus with the open roof while blasting music and rocking jumping up and down the bus as they were right at the top and their song was playing.
Only a true Goon would know that video.
Here is a clip to that video

Time to go to sleep⌠night night people!
Also: colorize me like one of your French girlsâŚ
Photograph: Colorized print of a Japanese oiran in a carriage, by Suzuki Shinâichi, ca. 1870
Oiran were high ranking prostitutes, who often were paid just for âbeing thereâ as a sign of wealth of the host. Intricate hairdos with wooden pins were a sign of both status and their profession; in a way, the higher-paid an oiran was, the more elements she would wear in her hairdo, meaning that she had skilled servants and was in no hurry, which was a thing when a highly paid oiran could earn in a visit as much as a commoner in a year⌠and maybe not even have any kind of sex. Typically it could take several expensive banquets for the oiran and her entourage with the aspiring host just standing there looking at the oiran, before she deigned to talk to the aspiring host and maybe provide a taste of intimacy before a formal invitation. The bragging rights of being taken as customer by a top ranking oiran were a real thing, as some oiran were Taylor Swift-famous in the Edo era JapanâŚ

I rode bike with this guy way back when.
Marc Surprenant, a triathlon star during the mid-1980s, died on the 25th of May, 2010. He was 49 years old.
Marc was one an original âBeast from the Eastâ at a time when most top triathletes hailed from and lived in California. As was the case with most triathletes of that era, he was competitive across all distances. He finished 8th in the Hawaiian Ironman in 1986, and second at Ironman New Zealand.
But it was his shorter course talent that made him a top-10, and maybe top-5, triathlete across all distances during the middle of triathlonâs formative decade. He appeared on the cover of Triathlete Magazine, and his swimming/cycling prowess meant he appeared at the front of every race he entered.
Marc was a New Englander by birth and upbringing, but moved to California after earning a swim and water polo scholarship to USC. But he returned to Massachusetts and helped popularize triathlon in his home state and region.
He is remembered for his love of life, his accessibility, his playfulness and his outsized personality.
âI remember racing against him at the Cape Cod Endurance Triathlon,â remembers Scott Tinley, âand heâd cajoled a few of his local buds to be out there in a van with the back doors open and the speakers blaring AC/DC. When I finally caught him on the bike he looked at me and asked if I was a real rocker or not.â
While riding in the company of Dave Scott at the Atlanta stop of the United States Triathlon Series, Dave recalls Marc saying to him, " Dave, this is cool, really cool, weâre dropping everyone."
But, while Marc was having fun riding with Dave, that wasnât Daveâs intent. âMy reaction was that I was trying to drop Marc but couldnât,â according to Dave. âHis was totally indifferentâhe just enjoyed the moment as we were both bearing down in the midst of the race.â
Dave continues that, âMarc was a unique competitor in that he never had any animosity nor any vendetta against anyone. He was truly a great, free spirited guy who raced with a passion but more importantly was always there to shake your hand or ask about you. Marc was extremely well liked and respected by everyone.â
âOne weekend this guy traveled from Boston to California to race us heads-up, and killed it,â remembers Mark Montgomery. "That was Marc, and from then on he was a regular fixture on the circuit, as well as a passenger in my old community race van.
âHe raced hard,â according to Montgomery, "partied hard, and lived each day to the fullest. His infectious smile and high energy attitude made it impossible to be anything but upbeat around him. This news saddens me, he was a great friend and travel companion. We have lost a true legend of the sport and one of the uniquely adventurous spirits that Iâm glad to have known.
The âparty hardâ part I remember! He had one month off a yr. Was a friend of my roommate. He could maintain 90 cycles a minute. I could only manage 60. 
We would smoke like Willie Nelson and go ride. My biggest fear was someone would open their car door in the endless traffic jam that is Cape Cod in summer.
Ever heard this song?
I got to meet the âMudshovelâ this song was written about! Friend of the co I work for.
Should not be hard to beat that Zaera!
