  1. A harbinger of things to come elsewhere? Probably not.... I would have put this in the General Talk thread, but it's been locked for some reason...
  2. My micro-managing boss does my **** head in. Good guy, but when the pressure rises, he cracks, and says the dumbest shit trying to be "helpful", when in fact, he's just slowing people down and pissing people off who know what the hell they're doing!

    Deb=One of the best characters ever on a TV series.
  4. They hadn't made a decent car since the 80's.....but some of those models from the 60's and 70's are pure class, and they ran forever. Shame...
  5. His big boyish smile when they score was kind of nice to see in this cynical day and age, but lately it's gotten very old, and I want to remove his teeth with pliers.
  6. I was going to put this in the "General Football Chat" thread, but it's been locked? Anyway, check this out- click
  7. We had a couple of HMV's in Boston back in the 90's-early 2000's. Both long gone now, but I miss going to an actual record store, and listening to the CD's, and whatnot. Don't know if you guys had Tower Records, but they were huge here, and they're finished. We had a Virgin Megastore replace a Tower, but it went out of business in under two years. Between MP3 downloads and online CD stores, the old fashioned record store is obsolete, just like video rental stores.
  8. He was a little sex machine....R.I.P.
  9. I think there are bigger fish to fry than this....
  10. Top 7 8-12 13-17 Relegated Mods, could you make this a poll?
  11. A very important figure in the effort to dismantle the Soviet grip on the Eastern Bloc countries....It's not often a poet becomes president. RIP
  12. Predictable result, really. Come January we'll be hovering uncomfortably around 15th place, with even a lower degree of confidence than we have now.... Randy, are you watching?
  13. I always loved that Cantona footwork and chip goal. And his "celebration" after was pure cheeky bravado. I have to say, I miss Eric Cantona.
  14. Yup, Grade A assh*le, that one... Most entertaining player in the league by a mile. Balotelli is my favourite footballer in the world today. I am half tempted to give up on the Villa and just start supporting Super Mario. I can't disagree with you on that point. The guy is an unpredictable whack-job with boundless skill. But he comes off as a thick, petulant word removed.
  15. Mine is fairly run-of-the-mill, but it was when I was about 22 or so, I was a short order cook in a diner. I had worked a total of three shifts there, and the owner was a cranky old prick who was always hovering over me, and being a real jerk. As I was still learning all the menu items, and wasn't given the opportunity to train for a week with someone else, there were a few times when I didn't quite get the plate presentation the way he wanted. He'd make a big fuss about it, and my blood was getting hotter by the hour. He snapped at me one more time so I looked at him and said something like "Go f*ck yourself, you **** stupid old word removed, I'm done with this sh*t", took off my apron, rolled it up, threw it on the floor, and walked out of there, leaving him with no cook on the busiest shift of the week. It felt great.
  16. A Blair foreign policy as well, no?
  17. 40....I guess this is the time when these things start to happen....still, the guy was just 38 himself...too young to die.
  18. Just got the grim news that a kid I grew up with died last night needing a liver transplant as a direct result of years of heavy drinking.... He is the third person to die this year that I went to high school with..... WTF
  19. He did come out and admit he was wrong...in fact, the last several years of his life, he seemed to be making a real break with right wing ideology. Which you think would be hard to do for a guy in his 50's and 60's...

    Who is the Angels fan that posts on here? And how does he feel about getting Albert Pujols for 10 years/$250m?
  22. Throw in John Terry too. Head first, that way he'll finally get a decent haircut
