  1. Think I read yesterday that Valbuena had changed his profile pic (Facebook or twitter, I can't remember) to a photo of Benzema to show support for his pal. The implication in the story I read was that Valbuena and Benzema were still good friends and that Benzema was only involved in the investigations as he had discussed the issue with Valbuena.
  2. I do love "mistakes" like that though and often deliberately make them myself because it amuses me. I've no idea id dAVe did it intentionally or not but I regularly enjoy such delights as: "I think the dury is still out on that one" or "Xann's latest gif makes my brian hurt" I know all I'm doing is making myself look stupid and giving someone the opportunity to make themselves look clever by pointing out my mistake but the fact that I know it was intentional gives me the ability to feel superior.
  3. Finally got around to seeing this last night. Was supposed to see it months ago at a preview but work got in the way. Really enjoyed the visuals, even if the story was a bit all over the place. Also got round to this recently too. One of the most heartbreaking documentaries I've seen in a long while. I know a lot of people will have no sympathy for her but when you see how messed up she was and how little support she got, it's little wonder she went under.
  4. To be fair, they're not just laughing at Gabby. They're laughing at pretty much everything we've done in the first half.
  5. The hair on her head? A better sign is if they play with their hair down below. That was kind of the joke. Guess I"m just too subtle for you all.

    I'd say chances are somewhere between 0% and 100% at the moment but those numbers could change. 50/50 then?
  8. An elderly Donegal man is stopped by the Gardai around 2am and is asked where he is going at this time of night. The man replies, "I'm on my way to a lecture about alcohol abuse and the effects it has on the human body, as well as smoking and staying out late." The Garda officer then asks, "Really? Who is giving that lecture at this time of night?" The old man replies, "That would be my wife."
  9. I presume you're talking internationals rather than club rugby? Indeed. Then I am partly on-board with your hypothesis. Living, as I do, a stones throw away from Twickenham, I've seen how much more loutish, rugby support has got in the last ten years. I think I've made this point in here before now but I've a suspicion that it's in some way related to when England won the RWC. I suspect it attracted an element to the sport that wasn't there before and it's very much to the detriment of the match-day experience. I won't go down Twickenham high st on the evening of a game any more. I still think it's a small minority as most rugby followers I know are very reasonable but then I could probably say the same of football fans.

  11. The fact that I was briefly suckered-in by the stories about another series of Breaking Bad.
  12. Yeah but I've got so much very important work to get done and I want the boss to see me soldiering on like a fully committed, hard working superstar.
  13. It is very good. Then again, she's not someone I knew an awful lot about before watching. I am obviously familiar with her music but had never occasion to investigate her story. It's a little bit broad-brush, but I guess it's always going to be when trying to cram such a long career into 90 minutes. Compelling stuff though.
  14. One of the best documentaries I've seen in a long while. Informative (at least for me), inspiring yet heartbreaking. What a life.

    Because it isn't going to happen. It's why the odds are so high. tell me why laudrup isnt realistic He did for himself at Swansea. Tried to manipulate the club into getting his own way and when it didn't work, he went walkabout. I'd be amazed if any high profile club took him on any time soon after that.
  16. Great second episode of Fargo tonight. Beautiful to look at and the story line is building really well. I really love the way it's so understated and I think it's already looking like being every bit as good as season 1 (but damn Landry, you got fat).
