I’m trying to get my strength back after getting my butt kicked by this virus. Not quite back to normal yet, but I’m getting there. In the meantime, I’ve been looking at a lot of movie trailers. The trailer for Murderball, a documentary about wheelchair rugby, looks promising. I’ll gladly shell out eight bucks to watch some badass gimps in souped-up wheelchair go all gladiator on each other.
Yeah, I’ve probably commented on this film before, but it looks really cool. It makes me want to go out and buy a Murderball T-shirt. I like how the trailer seems to emphasize that having a physical disability doesn’t necessarily mean one isn’t physical anymore. Like everyone else, gimps just want to smash shit up sometimes.
LOL, smashing shit up, yep, that’s me! Hip cripple with an attitude! Do the wheelchairs have to have protective gear too? Or do they get extra accessories to turn them into weapons (spikes on the spokes…rocket propellers from the handlbars, like a wheelchair version of the batmobile!)
Love your comment about still being physical with a physical disability. Go for it!
