  1. I take it you are from the States? I hear its pretty grim over there right now. Was watching a programme on it a week or so ago, and they used (interestingly) Cleveland, Ohio as an example, as it is allegedly the poorest state in the US. Apparantly reposessions there are at an all time high, and the blame is soley on mortgage lenders who sold mortgages to people who were clearly in no position to be able to afford repayments once the fixed term expired.
  2. Like I said in another thread, the US economy is in a full scale recession, and the UK's is on the brink of it. Reposessions are up, houses not selling, all fuelled by inflation and interest rates. First time buyers are shafted unless they have a huge deposit. There are going to be hard times ahead.
  3. Enjoy life before 30, it gets very dull after that trust me :winkold:
  4. The US economy is in a full blown recession. Our economy will probably follow suit in a few months time. Very worrying, I note the amount of home reposessions is rising fast.
  5. General, I know this may not be an issue high up on the list of priorities, but I feel I must voice my concerns regarding sale of players to Birmingham City FC. I know ultimately MON has the final say, but I really can't see how giving them anything, to help them fight relegation is good for us. You have seen how they look at us with disdain and envy, so I have to say I am very disappointed to see them try and prise another of our players in the young and promising Mr. Cahill. I know me saying this will not affect any transfer outcome, but most fans don't like trading with BCFC, and certainly would rather sell a player to someone else before they sell to them. Rant over.
  6. Houllier wouldn't be such a bad move - he won a fair few trophies with Liverpool (ok he spent 120 million)
  7. Please let it be Keegan! Hasn't he walked out on every club he has managed?
  8. Redknapp changing his mind, strange betting patterns... Hmmm...
  9. 'arry staying at Pompey, don't think enough brown envelopes were offered.
  10. The bloke is very ill, I doubt he'd have the stomach to manage that shower.
  11. clicky a quick online journal search revelaed this paper as probably the closest study, but its one of those things that is hard to validate as most people who take ecstasy won't openly tell you they are taking it.
  12. Because its not a prescription or over the counter drug! (I know you are playing devil's advocate here)
  13. I don't have any stats to hand, I am just using common sense 1) aspirin is more readily available 2) More people use aspirin than ecstasy therefore more people are likely to suffer adverse effects from it 3) Most aspirin related deaths are probably intentional overdose If I saw a person who came in with an ecstasy related cardiac problem (I;ve seen a couple) I wouldn't tell them its as safe as aspirin.
  14. Add into that aspirin is easily available as over the counter whilst esctasy isn't which further distorts facts.
  15. So most aspirin related deaths are as a result of people abusing drugs, whereas most ecstasy related drugs are as a result of people abusing drugs. Chalk and cheese I wouldn't conclude. Mlost aspirin related deaths are due to people taking 100 of them to top themselves, while the ecstasy ones are due to people taking one and having a cardiac arrhythmia or something similar.
  16. Most of the aspirin related deaths are due to deliberate overdose. How about asking if taking one 75mg aspirin tablet is the same as taking one ecstasy tablet. Police talking shite as usual.
  17. Newcastle think they will win the league every season, or some sort of trophy. Not with Fat Sam you won't.
  18. Careful, you'll upset a few people with these sorts of comments.
  19. Apart from those that I talk to that go to the games that is. Yes its strange that one isn't it. I've been to every home home game and a couple of away games and I've yet to hear anyone say that they are downbeat about Mons signings. Do you speak to every single person in the ground?
