The Texas Tornado . The Modern Day Warrior . He brought us the Iron Claw . The one, the only, Kerry Von Erich . The Von Erichs are the most famous family of wrestlers from Texas. I used to love watching these guys, and even caught an live event as a youngster. I remember this sh t in black and white, so it had to be very early in my childhood. I spent many a Friday night in front of the TV and on the sofa bed, wrestling for the title as my hero The Texas Tornado. Often against my toddler brothers and cousins. I had a 5 year start how could I not win and retain the title right? Sadly his personal life ended in tragedy. Kerry committed suicide by shooting himself with a 9 millimeter handgun in the chest, at his father's ranch in Denton, Texas, on February 18, 1993. Kerry drove a Jeep over a steep embankment at the time he shot himself. R.I.P. Kerry Gene Adkisson (February 3, 1960 – February 18, 1993). Photo : the Von Erich Brothers (Kevin, Kerry and Mike...

Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms  I believe this was the first real album I actually had for myself.  I think the UK got this album in 85 so I must have been 8 or 9 when I got it, on a clear plastic cassette tape, and I played it all the time on my Walkman­™  I was brought up around lots of music, LPs and live performances. For that I am eternally grateful.

The Dallas Sidekicks Whilst we're in a football mood, another childhood memory. I had all the players cards and followed football very closely. TATU was my favourite player.

It's no secret that I am down on Theo Walcott. I don't feel he has lived up to his potential but Wenger still sees something in him so I repsect that much. Still, if we got a £10 Million offer I'd not hesitate. Today he got his first hat-trick for Arsenal, albeit against a mostly 10 man Blackpool. Still, he made the difference by actually finishing in front of goal. I'll take that away from this game, and he of course takes the match ball. Kudos to you Theo, kudos to you.

Found this snippet of an article on Hypebeast and wanted to share. PW - "Marc Jacobs is the godfather. In no specific order, there’s Karl [Lagerfeld], Junya Watanabe, Rei from Comme des Garçons and Tommy Hilfiger is creeping up too – he has a nice couture line . Let’s get Nigo in there as well! All of those guys are the kings of all kings. The fact I was able to meet those people and work with them was really cool." Never in a million years did I think I'd see that type of accolade from P Willy, guess the $3Billion buy out did get some people's attention. I love my job, and the brand I represent.

A couple of cartoons that I remember watching a lot of and getting me thru. Underdog and Casper The Friendly Ghost

I'm running behind, what with all the Kelly Brook nakedness that's happening at the moment. Yes I just bought the Playboy with her in it. No it's not as awesome as I'd hoped. But she is still lovely. So I'm going to bend the rules once again and feature four favourite arcade games from my early childhood. So many days playing Q-Bert and Frogger usually at the gas station. And some very special nights watching my Dad and his band whilst rooted to the Dig Dug or Miss Pac Man table. Great Rock & Roll, hot old school bar maids, a sweet cherry in every glass of Coke, and quarters all night long. I miss those nights.
