My favorite is how American athletes practice to withstand Nordic depression by staring at a dead tree and thinking of childhood regrets.

That was excellent. I love how they even got the film all dirty and old looking. We might want to consider filming a retro documentary sometime too...

I know--it was really like those scratchy old docs we used to see in school. (And remember filmstrips?)

A retro mockumentary---that could be fun!
