    It's completely nuts, and sooner or later something's got to give. When it does, it won't be pleasant. :( I'm not expecting to have any hope of buying another property for several years now (I'm in Basingstoke), particularly since I'm paying a third of my income in maintenance now! For the time being I've rented a room in a shared house so I've got a chance to save up, but in the long term it sucks, it really does.

    ROFLMAO!!!    I walk these roads,    I climb these mountains,    Though they are nothing,    But paths and hills,    for the only mountain is success,    and the only road is life.

If it wasn't for Columbus and all the other assholes that followed, the natives would still have their land and total freedom and not just mini-souvereignity and casions. Perhaps you didn't understand me properly. Let me repeat it, and make emphasis on the important points: They live in America, a country that allows them to speak freely, and none of them are complaining. In fact, with all their mega casinos, I'd say they're pretty damn happy. Jörgen Sigvardsson wrote: If it wasn't for Columbus and all the other assholes that followed, the natives would still have their land and total freedom and not just mini-souvereignity and casions. Total freedom, eh? They're as free as any citizen of this country, with several important exceptions, like they don't have to pay federal taxes. Jörgen Sigvardsson wrote: That wasn't criticism.

I have been in favor of going to war with the entire damned middle east since 9/11. I have never bought into the notion that Islam is a peaceful religion. It isn't. The entire region is full of iron-age morons and badly needs to be cleaned up. Taking Iraq out, and chasing a few terrorist from cave to cave just doesn't do it for me.

    "And for those who ask what has Saddam done to us, I ask what had the 9/11 hijackers done to us before 9/11?" Oh?, Ok!, I'm off to kill my neighbour, better him than me, you really don't know what those human are up to, do you?... Marchers chanted and carried signs that recalled familiar slogans such as "America — Love It or Leave It." This is the sort of things you only hear in Denmark from Skinheads and Nazis. It is amazing to see how many of the pro-war people confuses anti-war and anti-america, is it stupidity or provocation?.

    True. I never meant to say that the England team should have gone despite threats. I was only wishing that the threats should not have been there in the first place. But you are right.

    Kant wrote: I think will Poms will pack their bags and watch Pak vs Zim in Airport Lounge. I will like to say that Zim will defeat Pak but the moment I say some good thing it doesnot happen. Anyway, Zim is not an ordinary team anymore. They are fully capable of defeating Pakistan esp. with the current form of Pakistan. Plus it was your prediction that Aus, Zim, Ind or Pak will get in SX. You got the part with Aus and Ind right. I feel that there is a good bit of chance for Zim to get thru'. I can't stop fantasizing about all the different things that can happen is SXs. Two teams have to be eliminated. Who will those two be? My guess 1. Kenya 2. Zim (if they get thru). It will get interesting and interesting. My fear grows that Law of Avgs will hit Tendulkar in this crucial stage.
