This gives new meaning to the need for SPEED...I guess we all have our "guirky" moments but this story, to me, kinda takes the cake...

I'm trying to collect every single VHS copy of the hit 1994 action adventure film 'Speed.'"That's the simple goal of Ryan Beitz, chairman of the World Speed Project based in Moscow, Idaho.As a kid, growing up on a farm outside Pullman, Wash. Ryan and his brother, knowing that "Speed" "wasn't that bad" for an R Rated movie, managed to convince their mom to buy to it and because it was one of the only Rated R movies they owned on VHS, Ryan and his brother would watch it over and over again.But that was just one copy. Now he owns 550. (He just picked up 13 more copies Wednesday night.)-from MyNorthwest.com-Alyssa Kleven

World Hunger..Cancer..Violence in Schools...I guess we all need an escape..but it's moments of yet another school tragedy like Friday's senseless death that makes me think we can all do better.
