USA=Soccer (??)
I know, but still, it confuses my poor brain when someone says football in america and referres to NFL.. I keep thinking football, as in soccer.
I don't understand how NFL is football. You kick the ball a few times, most of the time it is being carried or thrown... Oh well... I'm going to shut up now and get back on with some work I am meant to be doing....

Cameron was nice to look at! I'm a Days of Our Lives fan though. Hmm...if Marie can add a little more content to her dances and not faint, I think she'll be safe next week.

Hey XDA,
I just made The Binary Huddle league on Yahoo, so if anybody wants to join here's the link.
-Autodraft
-No dues
-Flex spots (including WR/TE/RB/QB)
-Fun scoring
This is a casual league to have some good fun with a little smack talk. If you're an extremely intense fantasy player who feels that you should be paid as much as the players for what you do, this probably isn't for you

Queen weren't hugely popular in the USA. As if further proof were needed that they have absolutely no taste!
Freddie was simply one of the greatest performers and front men the world will ever see. That man had more talent in his little finger than every 'artist' currently producing music, combined.
I'd pitched up at work for a 05.00 start to the sound of Queen blasting from the intercom, and every stereo in the building. One of the night-shift guys broke the news that his death had been reported overnight. Everybody in the building, including me, was devastated. We played nothing but Queen for a good week after that!
RIP Freddie.

I went to school & college with Jacqui Abbott, from The Beautiful South.
I was supported by The Verve when I was a solo performer, as a teenager.

They went to college in Wigan with my mate and we used to go clubbing with Richard Ashcroft. The band were pretty new when they supported me and I hate to say it, but they were TERRIBLE!!!
It was about 89/90 and Next thing I heard from them was Bittersweet Symphony. A bit of a change to say the least!
I also forgot to mention that I supported my favourite band EVER - The Cardiacs.
