From 1991: Tonya Harding Lands The Triple Axel In Competition

The first U.S. woman to do so, and it must be said, it was a MASSIVE triple axel. Tonya always had wonderfully high, fast jumps.

God bless you, Tonya. You always have mad props and the utmost respect from me.



Let's have another look at that triple axel, this time in 1992.



Massive. Look at the screen capture...the HEIGHT that chick got up from the ice, and her body perfectly straight up and down.

What I Will Be Watching Instead Of The Superbowl

"Ken, I want to go back to Vietnam," I said.
"What," he answered, "right now?"



The Lover (French: L'Amant) is a 1992 drama film produced by Claude Berri and directed by Jean-Jacques Annaud.

Based on the semi-autobiographical 1984 novel by Marguerite Duras, the film details the illicit affair between a teenage French girl and a wealthy Chinese man in 1929 Vietnam.

The Lover is a passionate, deeply sensual and tender love story with very generous lashings of magnificent smut.

It stars Jane March as The Young Girl, and Tony Leung as The Chinese Man.

It also features a breathtakingly beautiful soundtrack by Gabriel Yared.
