"peaking too early" - I think it would be good to peak during the world cup! I hope the all blacks haven't written off france as quickly as you have, otherwise the frenchies might just do ya! Read some more smack talk from australian head of rugby, O Neill today, the man is doing a fantastic job of firing up the england team! don';t know if he's ever been to watch sporby -qwerty- - Other Sports
Its on, lads! England pull some form from somewhere to qualify, ireland and wales crash out, and scotland limp through! So the QFs are: England Australia France New Zealand South Africa Fiji Scotland Argentina (I think?) --------- Are any upsets possible? I see Australia, South Africa and Argentina as dead certs for the semis. The only interesting one is goingby -qwerty- - Other Sports
Les Miserables is imo far better. Sure, Phantom has some fantastic music (phantom's theme is brilliant), but les mis is far more interesting. Better story, and although many say it "only has one song", I don't agree, I think its very, very good. I'm generally not a musical theatre kind of person, but those two are the best I've seen by far. You'll enjby -qwerty- - Off-Topic

I dislike enter shikari, its not a style that interests me at all. On the other hand, my favourite track right now is Leif Eriksson - Interpol, so that's pretty much chalk and cheese I guess!by -qwerty- - Off-Topic

I used to live near there, such a shame I hope they fix it up, don't really care how much it costs - I pay so much tax, about time it went on something I actually care about!by -qwerty- - Off-Topic
I used to be quite anti mac, but I bought a mac mini last autumn, and its changed my mind towards them. The reason I got it was purely practicality - I wanted a quiet, small computer which I could watch movies on etc. At the time there was quite simply no pc solution to match the mac mini option - it was 399 for a 1.66 core duo, 512 ram etc, and is completely silent and tiny. I couldnby -qwerty- - Off-Topic

just pop into an appple store surely. Unless you didn't buy it from apple that is. They're great in the shops, very helpful In fact taking it to them just to see if it works ok is a good idea, you can always say you bought it there, but didn't bring the receipt and i'm sure they'll let you.by -qwerty- - Off-Topic
Mayweather will never be considered up there with the best pound-for-pound fighters because he fights boring. Fair enough, it works, but its not good entertainment. De La Hoya is awesome, so I'm a bit sad he lostby -qwerty- - Other Sports

I think its very easy to say "why didnt anyone confront him" but in honesty the reality would be very different. No one is that stupid I also couldn't give less of a crap about a game link, its nothiing to do with anything in the reality of what happened.by -qwerty- - Off-Topic
To be honest, the only postive this serves is to make everone realise in the USA that having guns carries inherrent risks. If this encourages serious political debate and policy change then there is a positive from this tragedy. Anything else is a fillerby -qwerty- - Off-Topic

not the shining for the night it sounds like yyou're planning. Its a great film, but long and quite slow. It builds slowly to a climax, but I think you'd want something with more initial impact. gotta be the exorcist! chuffing scary.by -qwerty- - Off-Topic
