I'm originally from a town called Leicester and we're a city of snooker lovers (boring, i know!).<br /><br />When will we get to see your book in publication? I'll definitely invest in a copy. Also, the documentaries you've mentioned are highly intriguing. I'll be checking them out.<br /><br />Cheers<br /><br />Marc :)Marc, Manchester UKnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6750399704496351785.post-73697410358656610322011-01-21T10:27:04.494-08:002011-01-21T10:27:04.494-08:00p.s.- How is Manchester United doing this year?p.s.- How is Manchester United doing this year?Tea Kruloshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07994495796501352329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6750399704496351785.post-73693335733058233262011-01-21T10:24:15.578-08:002011-01-21T10:24:15.578-08:00Yes, I think this subject is a new one to Marc and...Yes, I think this subject is a new one to Marc and when people are first introduced to it (myself included) it is hard to know what to make of it.<br /><br />Marc, I think you'll be interested to find out that over the course of this writing I crossed paths with some British RLSH- I'm going to guess 15 or so. I talked a couple times with The Statesman, Lionheart, and others. Also, there was at least one guy in Scotland. They are talked about a bit in my book in a chapter about international RLSHs.<br /><br />A majority of these guys were centered around London, but I seem to recall one or two were in Manchester- I'll look into it.<br /><br />Also! A British guy made a documentary that looks like a lot of fun where he becomes a superhero named SOS. I'm really interested in seeing it. It's called "Superhero Me."<br />- www.superheromemovie.comTea Kruloshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07994495796501352329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6750399704496351785.post-18376824267276725812011-01-21T09:50:24.587-08:002011-01-21T09:50:24.587-08:00How exactly am I 'browbeating' the RLSH mo...How exactly am I 'browbeating' the RLSH movement?

As to...The stretchy pants are perks of the job. ;) <br />As to whether they exist in a reality that you understand that they may not. However, your perception of reality may vary from that of others and who says your version of reality is the right one? And no, you don't need superpowers to be a superhero. Green Hornet, Batman, Robin, Hawkeye, Mockingbird, ect. ect. All of these famous comic book heroes (which the RLSH are heavily influenced by) have no super powers whatsoever. All they have is intensive training and the willpower to step forward and make a difference in a world that is often apathetic or cruel to those in need. <br /><br />Nice try though Marc.

One thing I took from the interview is that the maker of the documentary grew to understand that "all RLSH seek glory and attention first" is a gross exagerration of the truth. Beyond this he seems to recognize that the RLSH movement is a "think outside the box" way of approaching some of the problems that plague society, especially the indifference it sometimes shows to those in true need.

All the imperfections removed and content sanitized. A perfect imaginary representation of an imagined perfect product. <br /><br />The movie will spread their message, and this is a good scoop of a story, and one thanks you. <br /><br />Still looking for the documentary that shows the real story - the good and the bad, w/out attempting to shill a viewpoint. There will be this documentary - if not by indie film makers, then by investigative reporting. <br /><br />One doesn't want to start the comments in a negative light though. Others will say positive things, and one encourages their viewpoints also. <br /><br />-Lord MalignanceLord Malignancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16340347432478407974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6750399704496351785.post-13579154190424211462011-01-19T12:22:33.483-08:002011-01-19T12:22:33.483-08:00LOL...ok?LOL...ok?Tea Kruloshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07994495796501352329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6750399704496351785.post-55346100913964719942011-01-19T12:10:51.405-08:002011-01-19T12:10:51.405-08:00Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ---deep inhale--- oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!<br /><br />(first post)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
