What previous names was Walter mitty? Apart from Finkle?

[CHDad]

Barring injury do both start 85% or more of Chelsea's EPL games?

Don't think even one of keepers will play 85% of the games.

Fabregas and Hazard will both play 30+

Don't see Silva as a terrible option in any way??

Maybe terrible is too strong. But with City playing Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea in their first five games, I think there are easily better options for the same money.

[FeetMagic]

Fair enough, didn't realise that. I've gone with Mata, Lamela, Coutinho, Ramsey & Fabregas.

Lottie will not be impressed with that

Eriksen >>> Lamela

Again, I am shit at FF.

Based on pre-season he's going to starting in the no10 role with Erikson on the wing, chipped in with 3 goals already. Will switch depending on first few games.

[RoadSweeper]

Erikson takes set pieces if that changes anything.

this is for the one-shot league though, no transfers all season

I dont think Ive ever been affected so much by reading a blog, so well written and quite brutal in its honesty. Doke, if you read this I hope you dont beat yourself up too much and hope things work out for Oisin, yourself and the family

Finally seen Boyhood earlier tonight. Loved it so much. Just been listening to a good podcast discussing the film.

[hotspur]

Ya me either, Ramsey Coutinho, Fabregas, Mata and Eriksen, nut midfield

Pretty close alright. If you could squeeze the extra .5 to upgrade Coutinho to Sterling it would probably be better. Coutinho purchasers from last season will moan to you about what a points tease he is as he goes to pieces when he gets in front of goal. Played well versus Dortmund apparently, but Sterling has been on fire pre-season and I really think he'll kick on.

I would be amazed if Lamela outpointed Eriksen this season. Eriksen is a really good buy imo and I would strongly recommend anyone to buy him. The only Spurs player I think should be bought.

I am a strong dissenter when it comes to that film. I thought that it was vacuous, and I was actually annoyed that such efforts had gone into filming a boy's life over 12 years and yet so wasted as it offered no insights into him.

Then I looked up who the director was and what he's done. Explained it all. Air headed slacker and comedy teen stuff.

Caught a little bit of a film on C4 last night which looked remarkable, has anyone ever seen it, The Wall?

Thanks everyone for comments on my latest blog. It was written in the early hours of Sunday after Saturday grind, then I spent the next few days agonising over whether to publish or not. So the reaction is very heartening. Thanks also to Mireille and my closest friends for persuading me to publish it.

Need some computer help here, something is up with my laptop and I'm not sure if I need to replace graphics card or something or just redownload something.

So every time I stream a match, watch a movie, youtube, vlc player!!! pretty much every single thing with a video with sound then the video plays for anything up to 30 seconds and then stops and the audio starts and keeps going until it catches up with the video and plays perfect. Has been like this for a while now, figure I should finally try and fix it

[Guest]

Iago might know some of the info I'm looking for seeing as he knows all about everything. A pub has come up for lease very close to my snooker hall, rent is very resonable, it's fully kitted out, very modern. Trying to figure out any hidden expenses I have not thought of.

Depending on what is included in the lease

Electricity
Water
Council tax?
Taxes
Insurance
Wages
Security
Booze
Food
Repairs
Petty cash
Musicians etc
WASTE

What kind of GP are they claiming to be making and is that enough for you/can you see yourself bringing enough to the game to improve it?

Rap sheet

War Machine has been arrested and convicted numerous times for violent offences.
On September 2, 2007, he was found guilty of striking a Las Vegas man in the face and choking him unconscious during a parking lot scuffle.[34] In February, 2008, he was sentenced to three years of probation and 30 days of community service, avoiding the possible felony charge and accompanying prison time.[34]
On February 22, 2008, Koppenhaver plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge of assault and battery, and was fine and sentenced to probation.[35]
In August, 2010, War Machine was sentenced to one year in the county jail for a felony assault conviction stemming from a fight at a Point Loma bar earlier in the year, as well as an additional fight at a Pacific Beach bar.[36][37] He was imprisoned in the San Diego's George Bailey Detention Facility and served time in administrative segregation.[38]
After going to jail, Machine maintained his Twitter account as well as a blog documenting his time in jail. In this blog, he stated that "The oppression of MEN is worse than oppression of Jews in Nazi Germany, worse than the slavery of Blacks in early America... I'm not exaggerating either."[39] He also described how he was sent into administrative segregation due to jail policy violations but decided to voluntarily remain there until the end of his sentence.[40] Koppenhaver was released from incarceration on July 15, 2011.[41]
On February 1, 2012, it was announced via Machine's Twitter that he will be serving another year of jail time, due to preceding events. He was released on October 29, 2012.[42]
On August 8, 2014, it was reported that Christy Mack and her friend were assaulted in her Las Vegas home, allegedly by War Machine, and taken to the hospital where it was found that Mack suffered from 18 broken bones, a broken nose, missing teeth, a fractured rib and a ruptured liver.[43] The Las Vegas Police have named Koppenhaver as the "prime suspect" for the alleged assault. According to Mack, War Machine also tried to rape her, but got angry when he failed to.[44]

Also does anyone here work for Ladbrokes? or anyone ever hear of anyone experiencing this before. Am truly disgusted here.


I was playing the live casino and had money on a hand, I get booted from the table because of technical issues on their site!...and when I get logged in I get told I can continue my hand... with an automated machine. I click okay figuring they took the cards from the table and play it out accordingly and log in to see that I have 10-6 vs 3.... when I left the table I had the queen of hearts

I go on to chat and this is how the conversation goes after he says 'I am sorry for the inconvenience this has caused you'

"Player8157: it is not an inconvenience
David: I will also have this checked with our Technical Team to make sure if there should be winnings that must be credited to your account.
Player8157: you took €125 of my money and potentially €250 of my money
Player8157: What I would like from you is to contact the live casino directly
Player8157: is this possible?
Player8157: You have the amount bet, you have the table, and you have the card dealt to my €125 bet
Player8157: they will be able to prove that I am completely telling the truth
David: I'm sorry but we don't have an option to do that."

Nah tis going very good for me now so it is no longer a problem .


Honestly have never even heard of something like this happening before and actually just disgusted with how the live chat responded tbh, I have bet a lot with them over the years and never had a single complaint from what I remember and their reaction tonight was horrendous - felt as though they were accusing me of making it all up because their system didn't instantly show it.
They utterly deserve the bad press in this post! I went to Vegas on their poker team a few years back and it was literally just amazing and I have always had a huge soft spot for ladbrokes since but that has well and truly disappeared now. Have a card with 2000 points so I am going to go in and put that free bet on and make back my 125 at least but still appalling on their side.

Haven't seen Boyhood yet but its a bit trite to dismiss Richard Linklater like that.
School of rock you may be able to be shoehorn into a slacker teen genre but its streets ahead of the competition. A Scanner darkly is far and away the most accomplished effort at getting the essence of Philip K Dick's writing on to the screen. And love them or hate them the Before Sunrise, Sunset and Midnight trilogy are a fresh and original take on the oldest story of all.

Comes from a typical uncultured Aussie, we were all discussing the plans for Aus Day last Jan. Sitting around eating some grub and this chap, he is about as Aussie as you can imagine. Long Hair, scruffy facial hair, coarse, loud, obnoxious, blatantly racist and utterly devoid of any logical thinking. Very endearing to be honest. Never a dull moment.

About 20 of us, couple of the lads oul pair and a token granny are sitting around a big table, and my mates mother asks the 'plan for tomorrow?'.

This lad looks up from stuffing his face with bbq lamb and shouts: "Faaaack it woman, we are going to get absolutely faaaaaaacking GOATWeaseled".
