I knew a lass who swopped her Beatles tickets in 1967 for a set of Beach Boy ones................ takes all sorts I guess She'd have been able to hear the Beach Boys. Good choice.

Some people believe that fossils were left by god to test our faith. These people would argue that certain branches of science should not be taught as fact in state schools, if they can tolerate your beliefs, what reason could you have for such intolerance of theirs and their right to have their kids educated accordingly? Other than the widely documented scientific evidence to the contrary, the lack of any corroborating evidence for their point of view and the generally stupefying notion of god being an omnipotent version of Jeremy Beadle.

I was happy to see Anne Hathaway get her chebs oot in Brokeback Mountain. Anyone who hasn't made sure to watch it is a puff.

Would you like him to comment? I'd love it. But he's not been about for months. -
Saying nowt tbh.

Most people who saw Dylan live at the height of his powers ('66) thought he was shit. Hence all the booing. Watching them back I can't imagine not being in awe, especially of the power behind the electric half of the set. As he'd sing to the audiences at the time "You know something is happening here, but you don't know what it is", very true.

An everday problem the average viewer can associate with and hopefully a resolution we can all learn from. Or maybe just a freak show we can point and laugh at.

As opposed to surreptitiously? Look, over there! ....... Head? What head? To be fair to DotBum, it wasnt a live stream. I think he'd have been personally uncomfortable with the idea of watching a beheading that soon after it had taken place. I think the footage was a few days old at least. I'm guessing he watched some of the blanket coverage on or immediately after 9/11. Probably a few of the many documentaries, perhaps read some of the many books and articles, he'll have seen a few post 9/11 films with a highly political subtext directed at that day and subsequent events. But it's uncomfortable when someone makes a straight dramatic reconstruction that promotes the ideas of hope and heroism in the face of terrible actions. What is it about a 9/11 dramatisation played straight coming out now that so offends when compared to the wealth of other dissections that have come before? -

Jesus. The nerds as depicted on the simpsons are spot on like.

Believe it or not, that's probably the least gayest excuse I've had today. I'd love to but Im off shagging six women before taking part in a drinking contest and watching the boxing. *Do I win the least gayest excuse award? I thought it was the most Brock Mansony excuse.

Aye, the lad who went was over the moon tbh. I just couldn't be arsed with another job hunt. I'm shit at interviews.

Jesus wept, that's subtle! What criteria are they using to dismiss people? Are you on a permanent contract? Performance - I've far exceeded expectations for donkeys. Skills - don't know why they think I have these.

I'm staying put!

They're telling people whether they're safe or sacked in a room with windows onto the whole office, offers no privacy whatsoever. Tactful. So far one lad from my team gone, one safe. Looks like we the rest of us will be fine as we're only scheduled ten minutes each, the sacked lad got scheduled an hour.

If, as I expect, we lose the next 4 games

Not sure about that. 3 pole position targets lost, brain tumour, snaggle tooth, bad eyes, works with Freddie Shepherd and Douglas Hall, Owen and Dyer crocked, Ameobi and Bramble fit. The poor sod. -
I'd heed your advice Rob, if I'd won friends or influenced people. Unfortunately, the bulk of my data is emails from the receptionist to say the sanwich van is outside.

2 New albums a day. Not difficult, but I couldn't do it. I've ended up with hundreds of albums I couldn't comment on because I've listened to them so infrequently, and that's just getting 2 or 3 new albums a week, tops. I don't think it necessarily follows that doing something lots makes you any better at it. Look at Shola Ameobi.

I must've misunderstood.... "I'm almost scared to listen in case it's rubbish."

4 points when people expected none. Roeder seems to be performing above expectations.
