Happy Face

Been catching the odd episode on BBC2 and wondering if it was really as good as i remember it. But it's shit like that reminds me how great it was. The kid who went to his aunties (or was it his granny's) getting it too. Awesome stuff.

Or indeed apple for including "Import CD" as an option in Itunes.

As an aside... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/8000876.stm That bold bit is hilarious. I never had a clue. All those people avoiding downloads to stay legal, and they could be done for ripping the CD's they own.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8003799.stm Well there's a turn up.

Madagascar Canny little cartoon. Lot's of good geeky film references for stuff like American Beauty, Planet of the Apes and Lord of the Flies. Madagascar 2 More of the same and all the duller for it. Lazy approach of noting how much the kids liked "I Like To Move It" so putting it in repeatedly AGAIN. Also highlights the Dreamworks formula for cartoons which the original managed to keep under the radar a bit better... Ben Stiller as a confused lion Hero trying to please the parents = Mike Myers as a confused Ogre Hero trying to please the parents, Eddie Murphy as a wacky Donkey sidekick feeling marginalised by his partner = Chris Rock as a wacky Zebra sidekick feeling marginalised by his partner, Zany Dragon and Donkey cross breed relationship = Zany Giraffe and Hippo cross breed relationship etc. The crack Penguin troop are funnier than any of the shrek extras though.

£££'s could still end up being the driving force to bring them back, if the TV money bubble ever bursts. If it brought in more money the clubs would push for it irrespective of TV money. They gladly went along with all seaters because they could whack up prices like there's no tomorrow, attract women who can sit by their boyfriend and read Heat and cut out a whole load of matchday bother.

"Special" innit To be fair, I'm a geordie and have lived in London for about 9 years. I absolutely love it and can't really see myself living anywhere else in the UK. That said, I can see why many people don't like the place as its all down to personal opinion. I bet you dont live in Tottenham though. Thankfully not! I'd rather live in Kabul than Tottenham. The Seven Sisters Road must be the only place in the world where the fried chicken shops outnumber the inhabitants, Which reminds me, those coming to the game on Sunday, make sure you try a "Chick-King". Its like nothing you have ever tasted before Wetherspoons and fried chicken? I never. Sir Francis Drake must be shitting himself. Its funny because normally we go for canapes and pimms but we thought, what the hell?! Its football mate. Man Up. I'd recommend a shit-hole kebab shop and chain pub for when you come to Newcastle, but they're ten a penny, and all much of a muchness. Never realised you had to roam for miles around that there London to find such establishments, last time I was there you couldn't move for them.

I'd like to see that person arrested....but in a crowd of thousands, if they scarper, it's understandable if they aren't. What's your point.

Clearly. The one you would have used will do. Any one that didn't start with backhanding her in the face would be a good start. I thought so. Once you can deal with someone without having to back hand them in the face Chris, the world is your oyster. Non-contact riot police are go.

"Special" innit FACT "innit". Just a better standard of....well everything. Is it "Like no other city on Earth"? "a magical experience"?

Aye, but you like to beat da ladies. Thing is again though, why does someone that is beating a police officer over the head with a pole just gets told to "calm down, please, calm down" as the officer backs away in one instance? Yet in another a women gets quite seriously backhanded in the face by an armoured glove and then beaten with a baton (a baton that it's completely illegal for a "civilian" to carry as well) for being mouthy? Are you saying the policeman's response would have been justified if it was a man getting in his face? Are you saying the policeman's response would have been justified if it was a child getting in his/her face? No I'm not. Children and adults are distinct groups treated differently in the eye of the law. Are you saying the policeman's response would have been justified if it was a man getting in his face? Are you saying the policeman's response would have been justified if it was a disabled person in a wheelchair getting in his/her face? How would someone in a wheelchair be six foot up in the air? Was the woman six feet up in the air? Are you saying people in wheelchairs should be treated differently by the law than those not in them? Yes. There's no point braying a cripples legs to start with. Are you saying people in wheelchairs should be brayed in the head/body to restrain them/stop them shouting at you? (ignoring whether they actually have feeling in their legs) Are you saying that is "proportional force"? Yes. That's exactly it. Someone lock the thread and send Fop his book token. Don't start what you can't finish. But basically are you saying what that policeman did to that woman was "proportional force"? Bearing in mind what she was doing, and their size difference (not that he was especially big, but she was 1/2 his size). And if so what about if she had been a fella his size hitting him on the head with a pole? I've already stated my position.... Saw the new video on ITV last night. Some stupid bitch tells her mate to film her and gets in the face of a copper 3 times after being asked to stand back. I've got no sympathy for her. Why don't you give your opinion for once? What should the policeman have done? Ignore her? Arrest her? Engage her in conversation about the merits of globalisation?

Like asking for a good restaurant and being recommended Maccy D's.

There's nothing incentivising clubs to push for it is there? Show clubs how it would make them money and they might start lobbying, but the increased capacity would be negated by the reduced asking price on a ticket and the increased stewarding required. Not to mention the redevelopment work. All those in a position of power prefer the sanitary version of support we have now.
