Watch as two intrepid, middle-aged bikers--Vassilis Zambaras and George Tsiros--break the law and create history in the process by being the first to execute a record-breaking bicycle trip on a portion of the still-yet-to-be-opened new superhighway cutting through the heart of Messenias; this sequence shows them on their trail-blazing journey from the village of Oichalia to the Meligalas-Katsarou interchange--just before they were asked by two security guards to cut short their law-breaking escapade. The video is accompanied by commentaries in both Greek and English.

Undying Source of Immortality
—after a comment by William Michaelian
Mortal, whatever
It must be,
It can’t have sprung
From something
That has nothing
To do with those
Who live forever within
The space of a single,
Undefined moment—
It has to be
More than that.

Bridge over Troubled Water (Reader's Digest Version)
Dear Paul
Simon and Art
Garfunkel:
For the sad-eyed crooner that was
Croaking on
The calm
Surface of the water
Before the turtle that spied him
From the depths shot up to snap
Him in two, for lack
Of your more heartrending
Drawn-out rendition, this abridged
One will have to do.
