Dude, if you mix up two threads like that, I think that you might cause a rift in the space-time continuum.

You ****ing people ought to be ashamed of yourselves. We didn't start this fight - I'll remind you - but over here in the real world, we will finish it.

Also, Hockey is probably the best major sport to watch. I love playoff hockey. Damn shame about this season.
How about you ask the people of the middle east who they prefer?

This is truly one of the funniest posts I've seen in a while.

From the movie A Hard Days Night, please don't tell me you never saw that movie and please don't tell me you never heard of The Beatles. It was in the scene when Ringo was in the pub and he put his pint down and it got smashed!

No, it's not rounders, but you know Blind Willie McTell sings of rounders in Little Delia. And a "rounder" is a traveling gambler.

It's called "Roundabouts" in Sid Sackson's The Book of Classic Board Games. I assumed it was a British game because of the name he used "Roundabouts" which are those silly pointless traffic circles you get stuck in like "Hey look kids, there's Big Ben, and there's Parliament" - Clark Griswold
