Gall_4185

Watched it again on dvd the other night,sheer mindless fun. The quips and one liners are worth it alone,never mind the violence

*considers booking weekend off work*

RenegadeKorr for me.

Got Halo3 in my xbox360 deal earlier in the month,but haven't played it much. maybe this would motivate me a bit more

Joined up today,so I'm currently propping up the table. Lets see how well I do come may

Had to feel sorry for Sergio on the last day. Same thing happening on the 18th twice cost him the claret jug. Still,nice to see a golf tournament where woods didn't lead 90% of the time

Exactly Phil, it's escapism. Stripey and Gall_4185, you're so damned joyless! For one thing, don't criticize a book if you've not read it, or more to the point, if you hate the series so much don't come on a thread you know is going to contain stuff that aggravates you.

And Kris, I say again: it's a kids book. It has to be contrived, the age this was aimed at aren't really ready for post modern ironies or insanely complex plot twists. If you're going to read a book aimed primarily at the 11-16 age group then of course it will seem contrived to you (especially YOU ) because we're older, more cynical and harder to please.

Plus, of course, it's not cool to like anything really popular. And that's what this boils down to, isn't it?

Fairy nuff Kate,but while I am a cynical bastard,I'm also a big kid at heart. I guess I just hoped for more from it

Two ways to summarise this book for me would be "Underwhelming" and "Deus Ex Machina". It just came across as rushed and contrived in places

And by the way,the legal loophole mentioned in the first post closes in october when the new liscencing act comes into power.

so far I'd go with

Nine Inch Nails-Year Zero

Bloc Party-Weekend in the City

Chris Cornell's might sneak onto the list after a few more listens,the cover of Billie Jean is strangely addictive

Am I the only one who loved ep 21?

The creator said weeks ago the bomb went off in 22,but oh well.got it downloading now

EDIT: Just watched it,pretty dark ep in places but up to the standard of this series. One more to go!

22 tonight,

the bomb goes off

although I think it's gonna be ted going boom

. Cannot wait.

20 was awesome,can't wait to see how this plays out now

Heroes...ep 19...oh my...

I'll wait till hopefully a few more of you have seen it before I rant and rave about specifics

Joos Valgaeren. Remember him and Mjallby scaring a few forwards at Parkhead

He got a mention on post No. 5

Whoops,egg on face moment.

my point still stands though

How can a thread like this make it to 50+ posts before someone mentions Torr Andre Flo? 12 million...nuff said

Moravchik,Larsson and Agathe...all for 1,000,000

Reckon that worked out pretty well for the Hoops

Up until monday night Dave Matthews was topping the list(was,it was that good I was still looking forward to it two days after the gig) but then I got the chance to see NIN on thursday...

Thank you Keesher!

Just watched episodes 3-13 in the one sitting. Great show and I can't wait to see where it's going

I started watching them online the other night. Seems a cool concept and I'll be checking out more eps later

David Gemmell- Troy: Shield of Thunder

Historical fiction set during the lead up to the Trojan war and sequel to Lord of the Silver Bow(which is an incredible read)

Another re-read,but this time it's Deadman Writing by Jonathan Wilson. Collected form of a series of articles written by a terminal cancer patient diagnosed at 26. One of those things that helps put life in perspective

Same issue here Rachie,but only with contacts who are currently online. I get through fine to contacts who just come online though

Currently re-reading The Count of Monté Cristo
