Hmmm, I'd say we'll have to open Off Topic mk II soon. 10,000 posts is where the internet usually goes into meltdown isn't it?

Firstly Fair play Neil on the moderatorship, my fellow G.A.E Brother.

Now then , I suppose anyone watching Prison Break will agree its turned to Pish!

This be the only thing keeping me watching:

Necronomicon

It sure did. I stuck with Season 3 hoping for some pay-off in the finale, but it never happened. Should've been a one-season mini series like The Kill Point.

Sup Neil, the noob is finally here. Ashamed to say I recognise her from the OC. You're dead right, I hope his legger doesn't mean the end of here.


Side note: Watching Kendall Grove and Ed Herman now.

Thanx 4 The Fish

Just readin back over the first few pages of this thread. Some posters have changed their tune on the idea of an OT thread! :pac::pac:

For example!!

If you are too lazy to click on the politics board to talk about politics issues or rugby to slag off the ireland rugby team, or after hours to talk about anything else that can go on in the world then you probably should not be allowed on the internet on your own.

Got a good laugh earlier on when my mum glanced at the tv, saw voronin missing a chance in the highlights of the pats-berlin match, and then asked me in all seriousness if I was watching women's football!

My bottom left wisdom tooth is fecking killing me, and I can't go to the dentist. I didn't pay enough stamps in 2006 to get free dentist, so I'm living on solpadeine, pack a day at this stage.

On another note. Anyone ever drink Rooibos Tea? It's from South Africa, and is really soothing and pleasant, especially before bed. No caffeine at all.

I like the soccer forum this week.

Only because it is currently the least troublesome forum I moderate. Just.

Mr Alan

i can go back into the Villa thread and it'll kick off it you want?

nope des, i aint drunk.

That has to be a first? What are they possibly doing on the paranormal forum to rival some of the soccer forum muppetry?

Can imagine politics is a barrel o laughs with the recession/Team Obama vs Team McCain/bonus payments etc.

I've seen mates fight over science (long story, they do science in college and got into a heated row about something on 2 separate occasions) so i can well imagine......but paranormal? has the Roswell case been reopened and the skeptics are out in force?! :pac:

Tough job GY.

It's amazing how heated the science vs "god put us here" debate can get, I've seen it first hand, while I of course sat back and laughed at them both!

I feel your pain brother.

About two weeks ago, I was in the same boat. For two days staright it was unbearable, to the point that I didn't sleep for 48 hrs. However, it just kinda went away, and I am so grateful it did. Gonna get it looked at soon.

A few short term remedies I piked up though were:

- Drinking ice cold water, lots of it.
- Take a shot of whiskey, and gargle and swish for about 1 min around the bogey tooth.
- Get a few ice cubes, and smash them up into smaller pieces. Then proceed to suck on those smaller pieces, placing them in and around the bogey tooth.
- If you can get your hands on any pain killers (none of those over the counter placebos), ones like Oxycontin/Oxynorm, keep them to one side, and use if you absolutely cannot get any sleep.
- I also found that doing things, even just chatting to someone, can sometimes distract you from the pain, and it seems to subside somewhat then. the worse thing is to just sit, and let it consume you.

I feel for a Des, really do, as there is nothing worse than the pain of a **** wisdom tooth.

Fantastic Des, post of the day IMO!

****waits for someone to take it all too seriously and drag this thread dangerously on topic:(

Ponstan ok? I have some of them lying around. Might pop one before I head away.

Who you voting for GY? Old Dude and Hockey Mom?

Well I feel that Palin speaks to me so I have to vote for her :rolleyes:

Fair enough, but I really found this to be one of the better remedies. The alcohol kills the bacteria, and numbs the nerves for a short time. Worthwhile if it gets you that 20 min window to fall asleep. Believe me, lying in bed awake all night, with the constant thumping pain, is not something I would wish even on Dennis Wise.

Des wrote: »

Don't know it, but its worth a shot. I found panadol, neuorfen, solpadene, and all the other over the counter stuff to be a load of ****. 'Scrip pain killers are the only ones that will actually target the nerevs and signals that are telling your brain you are in a muthafcukin jock.

You find her attractive?

I met her on her recent tour of battleground states, I think the camera flatters her.

Des - if you speak ill of Sarah Palin you're automatically sexist and insensitive or her special needs baby

Des wrote: »

An undecided state. Many if not most states will almost certainly go one way or another. There are a few close ones that the candidates refer to as battleground states - for example in the last round, Florida was a key one.

Question GY, being American, do you follow any of the pro sports? If so, what's your football and baseball team?

Xavi6

GY is a Chi-town Fire girl. Same MLS team as myself.

By football, I meant NFL, not sockerr.

Chi town, so presumably she is a Bears fan. One of my favourite teams, not including Dallas of course. Love seeing the fear in a team when kicking to Hester.

Cubbies/Sox fan?

Xavi6

Cubs baby! Lived literally 5 minutes walk from Wrigley Field for a while. Some sessions when the Cubs are at home 5 days in a row!

Charlie

Yankees fan (I know, hate on me). Nothing like going on a bender in the bronx on gameday, and then cheering on A-Rod and the boys.

Seriously, soccer can learn alot from the atmosphere/craic at Baseball grounds. Sitting in the bleachers, everyone on the lash on a warm balmy evening, ripping the piss out of the one red sox/mets fan who decided to brave it in, and wear his teams colours.

Xavi6

Yanks would be my 2nd team cause of Derek Jeter. What a legend. did the tour of Yankee Stadium a few years back and it was class.

The bleachers in Wrigley Field are the biz. We had a home run hit from Derrick Lee come in to land about 6 feet from us. Mad dives to try grab it!

Charlie

It really is an epic place, so much history. Would have loved to go to one of the final games played this year.

As for Jeter, he just personifies what a pro athlete should be. Leads by example, loyal, and your go to guy when you need that 3 run homer. Although I am a huge Giambi mark.

Bleachers all way, its where you get the proper fans who are up for a bit for craic. Not like the plastics sitting by home-plate.

When I was over in '07, the atmosphere in the bleachers was electric everytime A-Rod stepped to the plate and tried to get that 500th homer. Hair on the back of the neck stuff.

Xavi6

Yesh Giambi's class. Fat bastard who just hits the ball so bloody hard!

I was in Wrigely back in 05 for this -

On July 26, 2005, Greg Maddux struck out Omar Vizquel to become the thirteenth member of the 3000 strikeout club and only the ninth pitcher with both 300 wins and 3,000 strikeouts. Maddux became one of five pitchers to reach 3,000 strikeouts while having allowed fewer than 1,000 walks.

Needless to say the atmosphere was sensational with Maddux getting a standing ovation that lasted for ages.

Epic indeed.

There is a magical kinda electricity at a ballpark on those sort of days that is just awesome to be a part of. Every play builds like a crescendo.

Oh aye, some right bobby dazzlers. Certainly from a New York point of view, any of the Yankees games and Mets games that I went to, always had that Italian/American style of girl there, and they are always uber hot.

I think alot of it has to do with how baseball is a much more social thing compared with football over here.

In fact, google gives me this, a cubbie:

Oh, and for the first cnut that comes in in the morning and posts 'baseball is soooo boring', 'baseball= epic fail' etc. etc., you are a utter mong.
