  1. Name the British Army officer credited with defeating the Dutch to secure India for the Crown.
  2. Here's some Latin weirdness- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8Npq5QXGXs
  3. The star of the "Fast and Furious" franchise died in a car crash tonight, go figure. Aged 40 with a teenage daughter, very sad. Good guy too, apparently, was involved in different charities and was on his way to a fundraising event. R.I.P.
  4. I'd drop a quarter in a cup from time to time, but I stopped doing it a while ago. I got the inside story on a couple of well known panhandlers in the Boston-Cambridge area. One was offered a job at a movie theater, and she turned them down cuz she made more money begging. Another guy used to make the rounds of all the bars and restaurants in an area of Boston where I used to work, a real character who shuffled and smiled all day to the tune of $200-$300. He had an apartment, a car, etc. A bunch of con artists or drunks who unfortunately make life harder on the real legit desperate cases out there.
  5. Joleon Lescott could be a good loan target in January...
  6. Lack of overall quality combined with young players who are more nervous in front of their own supporters
  7. A point and a clean sheet in a season in which we know we're not winning trophies or qualifying for Europe. One point closer to not being relegated.
  8. Good fightback, didn't really see that coming, and didn't expect to see KEA and Westwood get the goals. Beauty by Westwood, too. Fair play to PL for making the big changes, it seemed to put the Baggies on the back heel and allowed us our chances. Still plenty of concerns though. Despite their goals, KEA and Westwood didn't offer much as usual. We need a creative MF in January, otherwise we will struggle to get points.
  9. I wonder if Lambert is the type of manager who has a real go at his players in the dressing room, or if he nudges and coddles. They need a proper kick up the backside.
  10. It's still the midfield that is the primary culprit. KEA jogging around and passing backward every time he has the ball is maddening. Tonev is selfish, Westwood and Sylla just make up the numbers. Benteke has been our best midfielder tonight!
  11. I Wanna Hold Your Hand US TV, maybe. Not UK, surely. typical American thinking that anything pre the US doesn't count first Ever TV , clue it was in the UK ..... quite difficult so clue 2 is it wasn't a Beatles song that they sang http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYvTeS8l35A
  12. Potentially historic agreement between the West and Iran on matters nuclear...but I've noticed Netanyahoo is saying it's "foolish", etc. And back home all the usual suspects who are bought and paid for by the Israel lobby are crying foul. Predictable...
  13. Blue ribbon and a copy of Gideon's Bible to Tony!
  14. I used to work in a paper shop, didn't I? Until it blew away...
