  1. News reports are saying just now that Houston's daughter was taken out of the hotel on a stretcher....
  2. Suarez is in for a lot of abuse when Liverpool are away from home. And it wouldn't surprise me at all if someone tries to hurt him on the pitch.
  3. I couldn't stay there too long. I felt sleazy just being on that site
  4. I find the Downing appraisals more funny tbh... That is just the tip of the iceberg really. They do not like him up there !!!!! £20m This is another Downing appraisal that made me chuckle Traffic Cone LMAO
  5. Suarez could be the biggest word removed in football right now. Incredible. How can a Liverpool supporter even begin to like the guy? Er, never mind.
  6. Addiction is a bitch. R.I.P.
  7. A good balance between weights, cardio and diet will do the trick. If you're serious about losing some flab quickly, cut out booze and as much carbs as possible, stick to low fat protein sources, fruits and veggies and water. It's amazing what you can get done in just 3 months.
  8. I've started a VillaTalk fantasy league, and have about 7 people interested so far. I'd like to get a 12 team league. PM me for details. I also started a thread for it in the Games and Gaming forum.
  9. It's getting close to spring training....should be another interesting season. Detroit have bossed their way into the reckoning by signing Prince Fielder. The Marlins are now Miami, in a new stadium with some big signings...the NL East should be a lot of fun this year. Will Boston rebound from our collapse, or will the rot continue? I'm predicting Detroit over Texas in the ALCS Philadelphia over San Francisco in the NLCS
  10. Seems my skepticism was justified. I took the X-Rays to my old dentist, and she said I only need 3 fillings, not the 12 the guy was trying to sell me. Suffice to say, I'm having her do the work.

    Syria

    Bit of a flashpoint right now, with China and Russia refusing to side up with the UN Security Council, the Arab League essentially giving Assad the green light, and everyone wringing their hands trying to decide what to do next. If there was oil there, Assad would probably be dead by now, of course. But when confronted with just a humanitarian crisis, do countries with power have a moral obligation to help?
  12. Me too, but with Archery :oops:
  13. That I'm supposed to think Johnny Cash is amazing
  14. I think you've had more snow in England this winter than we've had in New England, and that's amazing, really.
  15. Do any of you plan on seeing some events? Which ones interest you the most? Are any events happening in Birmingham?
  16. I'm on MassHealth- they cover 100% of cleanings and X-Rays. Everything else is out of pocket.
  17. Bright red lipstick. I don't want to kiss those lips. Not a good look either. Give me natural lips and I'm happy.
  18. You have an entire regiment to floss your teeth?! All private dentistry here. I just had a new inlay put on one of my teeth. $1800. Arrgh. Mind you, I'd rather pay that than go NHS. Last time I used an NHS dentist he just decided to take a couple of teeth out rather than repair, which has cause me no end of problems down the track. Bastard. Finger stretching, tongue twirls...it's intense
  19. I'm starting a fantasy baseball league for VillaTalkers...there's 7 of us so far. We need at least 8, preferably 10 or 12, at most 14. It will be through Yahoo.com, you will need an account with them if you don't have one already. There will be a live draft at a time of our choosing, (mid March) and it will take around 90 minutes to complete our rosters. The season will run from April through mid September and is free to play. Because they play so many games in baseball, in order for your team to be competitive, you will need to be an active manager, essentially keeping an eye on your players on just about a daily basis. Or at least be checking the schedule and selecting your team for the next few days accordingly. There will be 5 pitching and 5 offensive scoring categories, I'll probably just set them up using the basic Yahoo default categories, like Home Runs, Runs Batted In, Strikeouts, Earned Run Average. If you are not comfortably familiar with the rules of baseball, you might not want to participate, because it's intricate and there are a lot of terms and abbreviations that are specific to baseball. The Yahoo fantasy site does give a concise description of terms and rules, etc. You can sign up for live Mock Drafts to practice your drafting strategy and get familiar with the setup. Each team will play another's team over the course of a week, and whoever takes more categories, gets a win for the week. 5-5 counts as a draw during the regular season. I was never interested in Fantasy sports until I was dragged into a friend's league a few years ago, and now I'm hooked. It's a lot of fun. PM me if interested, and if you have any questions. Mike
  20. So I had my first appointment with a new dentist today. The dental assistant who cleaned my teeth and took x-rays said that I need to improve my flossing regiment because she saw too much calcified plaque. She said I might have a little decay. Then the dentist came swaggering in, and within 5 minutes determined I had 12 "small" cavities, and that it will cost me $1,700 to get them filled. My last dentist when I saw her 8 months ago found no cavities, although she didn't take a X-ray.... Despite that, I feel like maybe the guy is trying to scam me. So I asked for a copy of the X-Ray, and I'm gonna take it to my former dentist to see if this guy is as dodgy as I suspect. I presume you guys wouldn't encounter this kind of thing being on National Health? Is all your dental work covered?
  21. Why would you want the job if you were Harry Redknapp? He's got Spurs flying high, and the England job is nothing but aggravation. I can see it going to someone English, but out of work. Do I not know who it will be
