  1. Ah good old Pirate Jack, my greatest ever photoshop contribution.
  2. My favorite soft drink is Dr Pepper but it used to be: RIP 2004-2009 Most soft drinks in America are horrible cause they use the ultra sweet High Fructose Corn Syrup rather than sugar, however Dr Pepper is one of the few you can still get the sugar cane version of, it's called Dublin Dr Pepper made in Dublin Texas and is bloody fantastic.
  3. Death Proof - Not great, granted it was a bit of a novelty and probably should be taken as such. Kill Bill: Vol. 2 - It would have been impossible to top the first but I think it complimented it well and if you take both parts together as one Epic it's a masterpiece. Kill Bill: Vol. 1 - Brilliant in every way. Jackie Brown - Really dissapointing, worst thing he has ever done but still very watchable which says a lot. Pulp Fiction - One of the greatest films of our generation. Reservoir Dogs - As low budget directorial debuts go, has there ever been a better one? it single handedly ushered in the age of the independent film? (Citizen Kane obviously aside) But that's it 3 great films (taking KB as 1) and 2 dissapointments, really in the 17 years since Resevoir Dogs we would have expected Tarantino to have made a lot more films.
  4. General the boys brought back a bit of pride today. Gutted by the result but proud of the performance.
  5. If I was working from home right now I'd be playing Fifa and looking at porn. Instead I'm in my office playing Football Manager and reading Villa talk.
  6. Could be the most difficult question I have ever asked but I went with Homer since he is representative of the failings of every man. We can all relate to him whereas Peter Griffin only represents the few of us who are total dickheads, me included.
  7. General what are the current plans for the clubs archive of photo's and other materials? I assume our club historian is waste deep in paper sorting it all out but I would love to see it all made available to the fans over the web. It would be magic to log on and read The News and Record from 100 years ago, or look at high res photos of Villa legends long gone. Even if such a service came with a reasonable fee.
  8. Fuckit I'm just after working that out but Levi beat me to it!
  9. One thing we can all take away from this Six Nations. Northern Hemisphere Rugby is shit right now. France -> Shocking, bad management and a lack of real quality, I've no idea what's going on with French Rugby at the moment, since the stuffings they took off the Argies at the WC French Rugby has looked to be in dissarray. England -> Poor, a couple of bright sparks but nothing to suggest that squad can become a force. Plus I think Martin Johnson is a poor choice at manager. English rugby needs to stop getting sidetracked by over rated rubbish like Cipriani and focus on finding the next Joe Worsley or Simon Shaw. Number 10 is always going to be a hard position to fill but what's the point in filling it when you've nobody to recycle the ball to him. Ireland -> Aging, great Grand Slam but sadly I think it was a last hurrah for a generation that would have achieved a lot more had it not been for that fuckhead O'Sullivan, next couple of years will be crucial but I simply don't see the players coming through that can replace the quality going out D'Arcy(29), O'Gara(32), O'Driscoll(30), O'Callaghan(29), O'Connell(29), Stringer(31), Geordan Murphy(30), Paddy Wallace(29), Shane Horgan(30), Flannery(30), Hayes(35), Horan(31), David Wallace(32). That's an awful lot of talent that's reaching its sell by date. Scotland -> Poor but finally showing signs of improvement. Italy -> Poorest they've been in years, decent showing against Wales but missing a couple of stars who can create or finish something off. Wales -> Their time is quickly coming to an end, like Ireland most of the team is hitting 29/30 years with versy few younger lads stepping up to take their places. There's a couple of years left in the tank but without gradually bringing in the youngsters now the wall will be hit hard and painfully, 2 maybe 3 years from now.
  10. I would understand if you said "first time in his international career" but to be fair to that word removed he did perform in both the 06 and 08 European Cup finals. Still he's a prick and I hope while Ireland still win he manages to lose his knob in the process.
  11. The heart says Ireland, the head says prepare for a dose of your usual dissapointment. However, Kidney does know how to prepare teams for crunch games unlike the last joke of a manager.
  12. In an ideal world they should join the Tri Nations but will the other three take them? Then theres the issue that most the Argentinian players are at European clubs and that Beunos Aires is as close to Cardiff as it is to Auckland.
  13. so your saying my highley criticised predictions at the start of the 6 nations could be true only time will tell ! Yeah but in the same post you said England would beat Wales
  14. England have a much better points difference than France so if Ireland beat Wales, England beat Scotland and France don't murder Italy you should finish second. I actually fancy that the Italians could do that French side England played yesterday.
  15. Only chance at 7 Nations would be the addition of Argentina, which imo would be great. No chance of it reverting back to 5 Nations as Rugby is really on the rise in Italy. Unless of course we boot the sweaties out.
  16. Interesting choice General I would have gone with Gene Hackman but if you insist:
  17. General, if a movie was being made about your life, what actor should play the lead role and why?
  18. Brilliant roasting tips there lads cheers. Unfortunetly one of the curses of living in New York feck all access to fresh veggies at a fair price but I've assembled an interesting combo for tomorrows dinner and hopefully it works out.
  19. Had some roasted veg wile out today that was simply amazing, any tips for roasting mixed veg?
  20. No idea who he is but for some reason I felt compelled to hit the TW** button.
