Third the one with the hairy chest.. (Which is Cool)

How cool was the discussion about cool? Was it cool? What is cool?

Along side my very cool videos, I have added two links this week, first a link to the Top gear cool wall, and secondly a link to Time Magazine's website and their article on the quest for cool. The Top Gear cool wall is a place where you yourself get to take on the role of the Top Gear pesenter and decide which cars are cool, uncool, seriously uncool, or the elusive sub-zero. Thats cool. Fitting even more with the cool theory, it turns out that you are actually judged by Jeremy Clarkson on your choices of cool and uncool. In turn, you are able to (only in your self) judge Jeremy on whether he is correct in his overall assesment of the cool cars, generally judged by whether Kristin Scott Thomas (The epitimy of cool according to Top Gear) would judge you as cool for driving it.

It would seem, even just from this link (which i beleive to be cool) that cool is something that cannot be gained, only judged. Are you cool? Well, thats just not for you to decide.

(talking inside brackets is what all the cool kids are doing these days)
