Thanks Trench777

and now to answer your question .......

the penalties may look harsh , but Sport is Sport and Brawling should be reserved for that aweful show 'Jerry Springer' .......

Jerry should have stuck to something truly entertaining , even Rock and Roll

Do you think we live in a society as predicted by George Orwell in his disstopian novel - 1984? Give examples for and against your arguements.

well I can honestly say sometimes we do , I notice cameras everwhere , even in shops on sale , even at work my hand is scanned , and there always seems to be someone in the 'restroom' when I go in there.

I suppose it also is spooky that my boss has both my phone number and my address , he even has my Date of Birth (something that even CF doesn't have) and he also knows my insurance number and tax code , chilling!

There again I seldom leave this computer so there is absolutely no way someone can spy on me here .

It's not every day you see a convo go from the NBA to Jerry Springer over the course of a single paragraph.

Then again, its not every day NBA players deside to audition for Jerry Springer at thier arenas...

Another cryptic clue: Running around in your underwear in front of crowds of people...and Jerry Springer...and fighting.....hmmmmm, you may be on to something here, Cyg!

Hey, Cygnus

10000 posts ain't half bad!! Good on you!

I have a question for you - I read somewhere on CF that you deliver for the brewery......... I guess that means you're dropping off the ol' liquid stuff? If it does, then how many gallons/litres have you delivered over the years? And how many pints would that mean were able to be poured???
