The "jokes" are flying already, must say one or two raised a giggle they are so bad. None of them are nasty though unlike the Jade Goody type ones.

I loved the Jade Goody jokes, but then, i couldn't stand her. The Jacko jokes aren't as funny as the ones from when he was alive tho.

The after effects of his death will be huge. 50 dates now cancelled in the o2 in London. Plus the staff who were working, the food and drinks, the stage fitters, the hotels etc etc etc. Could run to hundreds of millions.

Why are you quoting something I said before you said to stop talking about it?

He quoted you both because you both kept harping on about it after I had asked to try and get back to light hearted banter.

Also if you need to feel you have to question a moderators decision, PM's are for that, not the forum.

I agree.

WAY too many morning shows, why do they bother? hats

why not a long show with different presenters for different times?

Given TV3's presenters, the fewer of them, the better. Cos they all sound like a Trinity College reunion at Lillies Bordello

"OH MY GAAAWWWD, NO WAAAAAY!"
Shotgun please, thank you! Now to do my put for public service...

I used up the grenades on my Fianna Failure bombing crusade a few weeks back.

Got the results of my ICT Case Study (first exam I did) today, got a B.
Happy enough with it, was expecting a bit more given the work i felt i put into it, but as Mick Jagger said, "You can't always get what you want, but if you try some times, you just might find, you'll get what you need"

Just gotta get the results of my S.O.W and Psychology exams next... 1/3 of the way there baby!

the reason the jade jokes are funnier then the jacko ones are 2 fold:

1) michael jackson was an amazing musician and an inspiration to many a generation whereas jade goody was a fame hungry pig headed racist.

2) the jade jokes are well thaught out and can be clever, whereas the majority of jacko jokes are either a) child abuse jokes or b) puns on his songs, so not clever or funny!

ive a feeling you wont be posting here again, not that a persons personality has anything at all to do with how one would do in their exams.

congrats shaun btw. although from the amount of talk about it i saw here on Off topic id say most thought youd def put enough work in to pass

I highly doubt it was flahavaj far too unimaginative for him to be fair.

We have enough to go on to believe otherwise. Or else he wouldn't have been banned.

Any more discussion on this will result in people following him. I've deleted enough posts and sent enough PM's!

We can compare ip addresses and there was a direct match between flahavaj and salvationarmy. salvationarmy has been sitebanned by an admin and we have permenantly banned flahavaj from the PW forum, with admin consent. If flahavaj can convince us it wasn't him he will be allowed access to this forum again, but that is up to him to prove and to argue against the evidence we have to the contrary.

This matter is not up for further discussion on this or any other thread on this forum, as per charter regulations. Please change the subject folks

Well done SR! Best of luck with the rest of them as well.

I don't know whats going on...the broadband is 7.6 I think, but its a crappy connection at times anyway (UTV - stay away from them!). Can't wait to switch back to BT Ireland next month.

Just had a look at the line-up. Rich Hall would be interesting to see live, must tell my bro about it actually, I think he has one of his CDs in his collection lol.

I'm going to see Michael McIntyre in Cork in two weeks time. Bought his live DVD a few weeks back and have yet to watch it.

I hate that man even more than Jimmy Carr which is something I never thought I would say. I would like to see Rich Hall but everyone who I know who seen him came back with bad reviews.
