Mm, I should do some work this weekend too. Timesheet for the week's looking a bit empty otherwise...

Oh lord, I remember them. And specifically the meedja never shutting the fuck up about them. EDIT: Just Wiki'd them and I'd completely forgotten about Ben dying in a car crash. Point remains, but with a slight whiff of guilt.

7/12 and I managed to refrain from using the c-word

Great song, but it'd be even better if it really did end like that, with a Jazz Club/Martin Jol-style voiceover.... "Shecshy!" Laidt down, in yor, warm armsch.. ..I'm schexchy ant I know thisch! Your schoft schkin isch.... ahh it's no good, I can't do it

What if that player didn't score in the meantime, but was loosely involved in the build-up to a goal?

from .com: 2007 Intertoto info UEFA have confirmed that the revised Intertoto Cup competition format introduced this year will be used in 2007, meaning that there's no guaranteed place for the current holders of the trophy (Newcastle). Have the "winners" ever had the right? There hasn't been one official "winner" until this season anyway... as far as I know?

- Won the pub quiz tonight despite being on a useless team, largely due to uselessness of other teams - Have consumed rather a lot of Polish beer and cheap corner shop wine - Fella doesn't seem to realise it's 1.30am, I've been up since 9 and I'm not his personal Nifty archive, but can't say anything as it would cause An Incident - The Decemberists are entirely fantastic - Corner shop closes soon

Well no, it's Philippe Albert.

Didn't mean it nastily m'dear, it sounds like a good idea to me. Good thing I didn't go back and edit it to "and order garlic chicken kebabs" like I was going to

Long as you can use it to post on here, she'll be happy.

I suppose it's better than "shite." Or "ever-so-game".

I know precisely sod-all about 9/11 and the arguments in this thread, but is it really out of the question that there's plenty of footage but they're deliberately not releasing it for security reasons? Waving a big flag and shouting "Look, terrorists, this is how little protection our major buildings have and how easily our defences are breached!" seems a little counterproductive somehow.

......technically the blame lies with Renton.. **tongue formly in cheek** Fact is NONE of you are american. You know fuck all about it, so shut up. Thank you. *dons crash helmet and waits* You wouldn't need a crash helmet unless you knew for sure there was an incoming hit. Co-conspirator!

....even Donnie can't remember what version of the story he is telling... Is it inconceivable that the word missile could be used to refer to an airliner being flown on a one way kamikaze course into a target? Or am I just way off here? Absolutely, the word can refer to any projectile aimed with intent to damage. Of course I assume (i.e. hope) Parky was just being awkward there. Do you think Rumsfeld would have said plane, if it was a plane? He seemed quite specific in the previous sentence. tbh, it's purely speculation, but wouldn't he actually have said: "Here we're talking about plastic knives and using an American Airlines flight filed with our citizens, and then flying them into this building and the World Trade Center" Doesn't that actually make a lot more sense? I'll ask you the same question. Do you believe the story put to you by the US Government regarding 9/11? Whoa there tiger, I don't have any particular opinion either way! I'm just a language pedant. You know, concentrating on the important things in life.
