Sounds like you just can't wait, eh!

Spinal Tap is a brilliant film. Tony Hendra did some great comedy work with National Lampoon magazine and many of the National Lampoon albums. He sang a devastating satire of John Lennon, called Magical Misery Tour for the album Radio Dinner. That LP also includied a hilarious satire of the uber-activist and folk-singer Joan Baez, called Pull The Triggers, ******s (We're With You All the Way) written by Hendra.

Congrats! The first 40 years of parenthood are the worst.

"Made a rag pile of my shiny clothes, Gonna warm my bones, Gonna warm my bones; I got silence on my radio, Let the air waves flow, Let the air waves flow".

Presumably he means that they have to show up AND show the right attitude and effort.

OK, if you like that sort of thing (blue-eyed soul). Daryl Hall is certainly a good vocalist - did some interesting work with Robert Fripp, for instance.

Well. I am studying the table after each game, and comparing our fixtures and results with those around us. I've not given up all hope yet. We can still survive. Where there's life, there's hope.

Lots of positives, though, for the other 10%? There was a time when motorcyclists didn't have to wear helmets. Is it a better thing now, do you think, that it's mandatory?

Thanks to you and Minty for the help!

I'm interested to know how to calibrate my computer screen. Any advice would be gratefully received!

They don't help if you fall and bang your head on icy snow? Would Richardson be alive now if she'd been wearing a helmet?

Of course we care - what else has the angst and delirium of the last few months been about?

Have we ever won a "must-win" game?

To quote Bill Shankly: "We murdered them 0-0."

You know what, I don't find any humour in this situation.

I agree - great album! I saw her in concert in Toronto last October - an excellent performance!

I can't believe the negative comments about Neil Young on here. "What a load of tosh"? "Whoopdeedoo"? I can't let comments like that go! I can only assume that you people are ignorant of his work. Or have never seen him live before. Or don't like rock 'n' roll. Here are a few superb albums of his you ought to check out: Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere, After the Goldrush, Rust Never Sleeps. And there are many more excellent ones! Neil Young - one of the true greats of rock music. Still putting out good music after all these years. And he's kept his integrity intact. "Hey, hey; my, my; Rock 'n' roll will never die"

Thanks - that's useful! [bump]

I wonder what Australia's aboriginal people think of this view of their country's culture and history? By the way, this "Christian" God that is spoken of above is the same God that the Muslims believe in - just a different name. Both religions are monotheistic; to speak philosophically, they just use different names for the same "ground of being".

Not for me, anyway. Very frustrating! OS shows the team line-up - identical to last week.
