Baron, there's something I've been meaning to talk to you about... son.

Hypothetically, if I were to start a thread about Stanley Kubrick, chances are that I wouldn't want to post lots of pictures of a camera shy bearded man, because well, why would I? But discussion about his films, the thing people might be interested in, that'd be worth keeping in the Movie section, surely.

Are you kidding? Marie-Monique Robin is a woman. A one second glance at the thread would have made this abundantly clear.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_Hood_(1973_film) must be included at some point. Otherwise I consider this all invalid!
Claudia, Christy, Paulina (RIC!!!), Cindy and Naomi. Maybe Linda, too. Probably all in the same magazine. A magazine that probably cost £1.20 then but now sells for £4.99! OH DADDY.
Could there be any more Lion King songs? Honestly I can barely bring myself to vote in Round 1. Okay then, Hakuna Matana, why not? Round 2: Bare Necessities. Round 3: Gaston. Part 2 is going to include Pixar films, right? Because Randy did a few terrific things on the original Toy Story. The others, not so much (Cars...zzzzz)
The last few pages have been exquisite - like watching Clint Dempsey's finish last night! I never say this but I'm (sort of) looking forward to the Champions League quarter finals. 1) Barca will beat Arsenal, so hooray for that. 2) A French team will definitely be in the semis, which is excellent and 3) hahaha, I always say Bayern will win the whole damn thing because they always get what they want when it comes to decisions, and now they're playing Man Utd, the ultimate referee bullying scum! I hope Bayern win but what a horrible, mean spirited tie it will be!
Thought John "JT" Terry couldn't be an even bigger cretin? YOU THOUGHT WRONG. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/8572727.stm On a cheery note, I'd like to welcome Iain Dowie back to the managerial game. Finally some much needed glamour in the Premiership!
Wait, why isn't Gary Megson Hull manager yet? Mark Hughes and Iain Dowie? IAIN DOWIE?! Why don't they just go for Brian Laws, so that he can go for an unlikely hat-trick of managering three sides terribly in one season. I hope these candidates understand that should they sign they're contractually obligated to sing a Beach Boys song at the end of the season, rain or shine! I nominate Surf's Up.
Steve Bruce may not have an exciting brand of football to his name but he has a legacy in my household. When he was Birmingham manager, Clinton Morrison was busted in the back car with a group of men of dubious morals, who among their possessions, had a big old bag of weed. (I'm paraphrasing this story quite a bit, but indulge me!) Morrison claimed he didn't know the men and that he was merely being given a lift home by a group of generous strangers. Instead of laying down the law on the unreliable, mostly useless Irish forward Bruce played the untenable, unbelievable line of "how many times have we all accepted a lift home from a group of strangers?" card. Millionaire footballer hitchhikes home has a certain ring to it but anyway, Bruce's response entertains all kinds of questions about his recreational time. Therefore, any time a ludicrous story comes on the news and a loved one says to me "how the hell did a man accidentally freeze his own testicles?" I always retort that this in fact a common experience and that actually the exact same thing once happened to Steve Bruce. TEHEHEHE...
^He is a 'good egg', yes. I don't think he's responsible for the ridiculous sycophancy afforded him by the UK media... I've only been here 2 months - and it's already annoyed me though. How do you do it? I think at this point Beckham is in a special league - along with Prince Charles, Paul McCartney, etc - who have been really famous for such a long time that no one can remember a time before they were filling newspapers and magazines. Therefore a proportion of society tend to be overly cynical about them or deride them for various things (some just, some not, some tedious, some all of the above), whilst another feels the need to continually praise them and zealously over defend them like archaic statues that the local council are threatening to destroy.
Guys, this is a serious thread that's meant to contain serious observations. You don't see me wasting posts on silly stuff, do you? Come on now. But seeing as it appears inevitable. Footballers who look like lesbians Samir Nasri MUMMY, DADDY, MUMMY
Beckham's a good egg. I don't know anyone personally who's treating this as anything more than a "aww, sucks for the guy, he really wanted to go" story. From a footballing perspective he's always been a committed player, I'll never forget him hopelessly tear arsing around the pitch when Croatia won at Wembley, but ultimately that's just an old story that counts for nil (like Owen Hargreaves being our best player in 2006). I'm guessing column inches will be filled by endless guff about divided dressing rooms and lack of leadership zzzz...don't care. Milner should be playing in every conceivable position, anyway.
What? No.
At first sight the WI probably thought Jimmy Bullard was one of their own. He sure does resemble a dinner lady! Jokes aside, poor old David Beckham. And poor old for me for just having read this from Mike Ingham, one of those BBC blowhards. How true. How profound. How utterly inane.
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back *crickets* ?
Hopefully not.
