Ever been to Bastard? Sandy Balls? or Wet Beaver Creek? I am sure this site has them all... http://www.philbrodieband.com/jokes-jokes_town_names.htm If not you could always put in a suggestion.

Most politicians do that - which is why I hate them all! I can't see why everyone wastes their time carping on about the labour government, the British public obviously have a memory span of a goldfish. As soon as the tories get back into government (they'll probably do so by occupying the centre ground as well) we'll hate them too . And rightly so. For every good decision they make there are two or more gaffs which ultimately we remember them by. Maybe we should have free phone in polls to help influence critical decisions based on public opinion rather than our so called representatives. Interactive parliament television.

Are you insinuating that his list of hobbies could potentially be of the same nature as those of Mr King or Mr Glitter, as opposed to drinking weak lemon squash commonly preferred by hobbyists?

I went to Auschwitz-Birkenau a couple of years back. I would recommend to anyone that they go. What you learn at school or through the media doesn't bring home the enormity of what went on. There are downsides such as tourists taking photos of the wall of death with them in the photograph. The impact comes in the display cases, enormous piles of spectacles, hair etc. Then there is Birkenau. Razed to the ground it is just a vast open space where they have reconstructed just the first row of huts, and of course the train tracks remain. Whilst I am on the subject of photography, although a room 101 topic, I absolutely despise photographs of places with people cheesy grins, nine times out of ten is ruins the photograph, taking the focus off of the natural beauty, the amazing architecture etc. Anyone with me here? And another thing I find crass... Why on earth are we commemorating the start of the Falklands war? Surely we should be focussing on when peace was regained? I also read somewhere that families of fallen Argentines will be allowed to commemorate at the graveyards in the Falklands sometime towards the end of 2007. Surely there should be joint ceremonies as a symbol of peace, and that they be allowed to remember their dead at a more relevant time.

You will believe in Mermaids, Pixies & pots of gold at the end of rainbows also, no doubt. Along with the Hoax of the 20th century. Mermaids do exist. I know this because I have seen one. I've seen two! One in Copenhagen and one by the Lorelei rock on the Rhine. I've come to the conclusion that Mermaids couldn't possible swim as they all seem to be made of brass. Edit - sorry should read as bronze!

Thank-you. Unfortunately that clearly would be too obvious. I find the more education I received the more common sense I lost. I was no exception mind. In fact I've known some completely inept people gain PhD's. I hope you don't count me as one of those; maybe just one of the partially inept majority. If you want anything doing right these days, your best bet is to ask a five year old. Upshot, I'll bear the help function in mind.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/6518319.stm As long as they don't go after Comical Ali next! I don't know if ilovetheiraqiiinformationminister.net or whatever it was is still up and running. It sure was the best thing to come out of this disgraceful war.

Very Madejestic of you. You'd never catch a scummer doing that. What's it like when you play at Chav Central Fratton park. When I was just a little boy, I asked my mother what should I be. Should I be Pompey? Should I be Royal? here's what she said to me.... wash your mouth out son, go get your father's gun and shoot those pompey scum, and support the Royals. WE HATE POMPEY WE HATE POMPEY WE HATE POMPEY! Works just as well as Saints, though Fratton park falling down and building up with er, blue and white doesn't. Best thing about Portsmouth? The M275. Northbound.

Why do you keep harping on about this? We don't care about the FA Cup this season, that's why we put the reserves in for every game. So, if we don't care, why should anyone else? Maybe in two or three years, but not now. Coppell has also gone on record as saying we don't want to be in the UEFA Cup next year, and such an unusual statement might be tantamount for fan backlash. Not at Reading, where we just build & build, step-by-step, the Coppell Way. Where we are now would be a magnificent achievement come May. A long cup run would've damaged all that. Good point. Look at the 'success' of Southampton, Millwall and West Ham. They reached the cup final, they lose, the expectation rises, the players get full of themselves, they struggle, they get relegated. Entering the UEFA cup can be a bit of a curse as well... Too true but unfortunately if you don't have a Russian/Arab/Yank* financial magnate behind you, then you have to try to get as many televised matches as possible. It is all about the money these days. Those who have and those who have not. I can safely say our players did not get full of themselves, we had managerial problems. We were relegated 2 seasons after so it is not really a knock on effect, besides which getting to Cardiff was half of the enjoyment for the fans. Everyone loves an underdog, FA cup finals between two big hitters don't have the same appeal. My fingers are crossed for a Watford v Blackburn final. I am of course biased in the same way everyone else is on here towards Everton, Reading etc. That's what it is all about. Comic rivalry. *delete as appropriate.

Same thing as Leeds, except in much smaller quantity. Delusions of grandeur far above their station - all of a sudden - once they were relegated. You remember I said about the Leeds fans being the most snide about us going up? Guess who was 3rd (behind QPR) in the "we should be in the top flight because we're more important than you, even though we weren't good enough" stakes at the end of the season? Birmingham are the same. No-one has a right to be in any division, you have to earn it.... Before the relegation, I think they were everyone's 2nd favourite Premiership team. Again, I also think (relative) locality plays a part in this. Funnily enough though, Southampton's The Dell was the first ground I ever saw, aged 3. Many a trip was made from Odstock to Toys R Us Southampton & I remember seeing this big structure I'd never seen the like of before. Good thing I didn't see Old Trafford or Anfield in 1981 then, as I'd be freaked out for life. I just hate Swansea as they're a bunch of sh*ts, especially Trundle. But then, my grandfather did support Cardiff.... Definitely right there with people getting a soft spot for the Saints. Many friends who were not from these parts adopted them as their own. If I should stray then a glory supporter I could be. My home town won the FA cup vase in 2004 You were lucky, my grandfather supported the scum (Portsmouth to those fortunate enough never to have heard of them). Fortunately my father rebelled

my family is from liverpool, but i was born here - efc since day one. not thats its got anything to do with it. and the only Glory Days that ive seen is The FA Cup in 95 and beating Southampton 7-0 in the Prem. Fair point. Oh how is James these days? We have an uncanny knack of selling our overachieving players. Good job there is no returns policy in the transfer market!

I want to know how someone from Penzance ends up supporting Everton; RM are you a (former) glory supporter? ...and OoO, what do you have against the mighty Saints? Okay, we certainly had our nine lives as far as the premiership went. Although quite frankly the survival race is much more exciting that the usual suspects chasing the title, by means of wealth as opposed to passion. Though with the rise of Chelsea I am gutted that Arsechester United is no longer appropriate. Manchelsea United just conjure up the right level of cynicism.

Just click on the post#168 (or whatever number) bit in the top right corner of a post and copy what's in the box before you hit reply, then highlight the word where you want the link & use the insert link option and paste; like this being careful to copy over the http:// bit that's already in the box or you'll have it twice and balls up the link. Or that might be what you meant you already did, so you can also use 'snapback', 'post=' or 'topic='. When you click on the post168 bit, the very last bit is the post number i.e. 94483. Just do <{POST_SNAPBACK}> for the snazzy arrow, or clicky for a post link. In the same link it says showtopic=4315 or the like, so use topic clicky to go to the start of the topic. You'll need to look at my post in reply mode to see what I've done, of course. If you can be arsed. Hope one of those helps! Sorry mods, this should all be in the 'deathlist howto' thread if someone can move it for me? Ta. Thanks - and sorry for going off topic! Perhaps I should have kept with education cool politics.

Okay, I had a look at all the wonderful tricks you can do but how do you find out the post/topic numbers? The only way I found them was by looking at the url/http malarkey. I ignored all those lovely pink boxed code sql things as I haven't got a scooby what they're on about. Thank-you!

To save AtJ the job, it would be most unfortunate if someone were to quote the above out of context. Ah. My answer depends on whether you're an old dog or not. On the Cartesian axes we are talking about the left side of 30 (just). Which I believe is quite old for a dog

I don't want to give the game away but is it all in the eyes? Either that or your laying the foundations for the 1st of next month!

From the BBC Do they mean unbalance? As in: unhinged, tapped, doolally, one step away from shoving two pencils up his nostrils and a pair of crusty Y-fronts on his head, shouting a sthz sthz sthz sthz sthz Chrissy Wibble? What new tricks can you teach me TLC?

Typical of the BBC - they will give you external links if it's either a) educational political or c) mind numbingly boring but when it comes to something entertainingly distracting you have to go and do the leg work yourself... Bjørnar the Eagle I see you've discovered the b + ) = unless of course you meant "educational cool political"? You can do educational political etc. though, by using (or for bullet points, for roman numerals, for numbers) then using a for each point, finishing off with [/ list] without the space between / & list. Have I overdone the explanation, sorry if you already knew this and just made a mistake. The crazy things I get up to whilst waiting for death, eh? Thank-you! I didn't know how to do that. If all goes to plan I do now. Okay - maybe not the list bit then

As and when you know the Doc's team why not just get a friend to pick one of his picks and put it in their team

I'm hoping I've managed the most odd "Team Theme" of the lot too. My theme is "The picks are all unique picks" I've created my first ever team and it was bloody hard sticking to the theme I chose I tells you... "Born in Belgium dead in 2007". Not knowing much about Belgian society until just over a year ago I feel I have come a long way - I can even name (and recognise) the prime minister. Did I mention I saw the King of Belgium and the Duke of Luxembourg last week? - albeit from 5 or so metres away

Go to Glastonbury

Is there not a US version of this?

...and "the more you ignore me the closer I get, You're wasting your time, Beware! I bear more grudges, Than lonely high court judges...Yeah, and let me in...its war" Sorry - never could resist a bit of mozza, is this the kind of moronic banter you were on about or should I have slipped in a bit about Morrisey squids the devil in latin?.
