It’s a habit that I call collecting horizontically. I used to make tapes for the car, recreating local southern california radio charts of 1963 and 1964. I was not born in that year, however. But find the mixture quite pleasant, interesting even – pop, rock’n’roll and mood music, each at a peak point in a way. I would like to be able to visit a page for each year. I always thought time travel is just a question of the effort you are willing to make. — Kahuna Kawentzmann

Surfersvillage Global Surf News, 1 December, 2007 : – - As Ireland was battered today by the largest ocean swells ever predicted by the Marine Institute’s weather buoys (14 metres), a group of four surfers braved the stormy conditions to successfully take on the biggest waves ever ridden in the British and Irish Isles, off Mullaghmore Head, south Donegal Bay, Ireland. Duncan Scott (Newquay, Cornwall, UK), Alistair Mennie (Portrush, N.Ireland), Gabe Davies (Newcastle, UK) and Ritchie Fitzgerald (Bundoran, Co. Donegal, Ireland) motored out at first light on two jetskis to await the arrival of the massive, storm-driven swells.
