[Denny Crane]

Anyone happen to know the name of that song that was a mix of Thomas Newmans stuff? Think "Dead already" was one of the songs, and then the other was from pay to foward maybe.

Got it:

Defences dont seem to have tightened much since the opened envelope arrived in the post by the market trader woman

I think the wife should add chancellor of the exchequer to her portfolio in the Lazare homestead. Its for the best.

Cheque didn't really bounce it was a failed attempt to catch out MSN with a trampopun.


The second part is correct regardless.

[SatNav]

I really wish it was Liz selling that trampoline.

why ?

[KevIRL]

Great BBV-ing over the day. Like back in the day. Wp all involved.

[Laois Hammer]

Would it be worth buying an english sim card for trips to england?
I changed to bill phone and roaming isnt part of the package so dont want to get raped when over there.

Would an english o2 simcard work in my phone?

[Rufio]

I think it has to be wizardry too, certainly some kind of magic anyway! Or else they have every music boffin in the world tied up in a basement telling the computer the answer

I haven't tried the new Soundcloud, but it used to be called something else and it wasn't a patch on Shazam. Don't think I'd be bothered changing, Shazam is just amazing, it nearly always knows the song and gives you a link to the Youtube of the song underneath it.

It's hard to improve on perfection IMO.

What makes you say it's so much better??

Well I very rarely have my phone on hand when I hear a song I like, generally i'm driving or such. So with soundclound recognising the humming/singing version of a song it's ideal. It has a 100% record for about 7 songs now, obviously not a huge sample, but an impressive strike rate none the less.

[The C Kid]

Well this sucks for internet poker.

there isn't a hope in hell my phone (or any phone for that matter) will ever identitfy anything i may hum or sing to it, no matter how smart it is!!!

High probability of the Green Isle hotel featuring in a news bulletin tomorrow.

I'm at a surprise 60th and there's about 350 stone of aggressive Traveller males in the main bar.

Lazare it's your IPB duty to light the touchpaper and video the results. Something to the effect of the superior nature of Cuban boxers might do the trick.

He has a solid record there from what I can remember too.

[tylerdurden94]

Just home from Scream 4 didn't really expect much from it kinda liked the trilogy because I really enjoyed the first one and the 2nd was okish and the 3rd was meh but Scream 4 isn't very good overall as I said I wasn't expecting much but didn't think it was gonna be like that

It kinda bugs me the way these movie directors are still kinda hyped like they were back in the day when they first came about, Wes Craven/George A Romero don't think they have done a good movie between them in the last while and that other hack M Night Shayucvlusyvd;yea

Don't wanna say too much about the overall plot etc but I'm sure some of you will still probably go see it for yourself's so when you's do give me a shout.

It did have Alison Brie in it thou

[DeadParrot]

Alison Brie in revealing clothing can over a multitude of sins though

[Guest]

few quid on denny crane there

[oleras]

Friday night dinner ? the TV show, seems to have passed me by, up to ep6 on the 4oD player, gona give it a spin, anyone seen it ? good/bad ?

[The Situation]

Denny will prob need this run after a 4 month break. No suggestion in his form that he goes well after a break.

[Raoul Duke III]

reasonably well-punted despite this (I agree with you) and Lynam doesn't get it wrong too often

I only highlighted it for the craic tbh

[Charlie Sheen]

Also Lynam's horse's have barely even placed over the last month, so doubts about how fit he has them at the moment. His C&D record is impressive though.

Cracking show, written by a guy called robert popper who commisioned peep show whilst at C4, he also co-wrote the brilliant 'Look Around You'. a lot of people who don't like the inbetweeners wrote this off as the main guy fro it is in it. it's all about the neighbour and the father character

[Sirtoyou]

If you do sell it on adverts.ie, only accept cash, I sold a chest of drawers last year to a guy who paid with a cheque. The cheque bounced.

It would be so apt if a cheque bounced on a trampoline sale.

Watched the first ep and had the same feeling, I was dissapointed tonight to find out that this season was over- thought there was one more to go

[Raoul Duke III]

[Guest]

Classic film starting film 4 the French connection followed by french connection 2
Gene Hackman is excellent in both.

Yep, Murtagh didn't try a tap on him, didn't pick up the whip from what I saw. Definitely worth looking out for next time.

[Angry-Ball]

Never knew there was a sequel, is it worth watching or is it just a let down after the first one?

My annual stint as the easter bunny in my boys school rolled around this morning.
Now, I hadn't decided if i'd let the lads know it was me doing it this year as my eldest was well up for it, but my youngest wasn't too keen as he got a bit freaked out last year by the bunny not knowing it was me.

After a very pleasant 4-ball in the sunshine at Faithlegg the other day, my wife turns up with the kids. We're all getting our stuff sorted out when Nicnicnic shouts over to my boys asking them if they're looking forward to daddy dressing up as the easter bunny.
I start giving it the old shhh motions, Nicky mumbles 'oh fcuk', and everyone finds this very amusing including the kids.
My two boys love Nicky as he's always having a laugh and a joke with them so they never take him too seriously, which is just as well considering Nicky didn't seem to be finished.

Easter obviously wasn't enough, Nicky went after the bigone, Christmas. "There's no such thing as santa either" was the next illusion shattering gem to barrell towards my children. There was a split second silence before the laughter started again, I looked over at my wife with her mouth wide open, she's not quite sure whether to laugh or give out.
It was very much like the time last year when we got a new puppy and despite informing Nicky that the dogs name was Trixy, Nicky thought it best to rename the dog 'shithead' after Steve Martins dog in The Jerk, and made a point of asking the kids "where's shithead" every time he was up at the house. Mrs Diamond shocked, kids laugh, you get the idea.

Nickys attempted sabotage wasn't to go unpunished though, the golf clubs and trolley that usually fit fairly handily into the back of Nickys Civic decided to retaliate and we were treated to a two minute show of pulling, pushing,mumbles of 'they usually fit' and repeated attempts to close down the boot with no joy.
The gear eventually found its way home but not until my boys were nearly pissing themselves laughing at the site before them.

As an aside the easter bunny gig was good craic especially heading around to all the classrooms before the egg hunt, the mask is made of rubber though and i'd say I lost a good 3 pounds sweating like a serial killer in a lineup during my 3 hour stint.


tl;dr:
Nickypower shattering childrens fantasies since 1967
dannydiamond sweating his nuts off in a bunny suit every easter since 2009.


I'm the one in the pink waistcoat btw.


Me with my youngest in junior infants.


In my eldest lads class.




Chillin' with the little ones.

[Lord Sir Banter]

That bunny face is fucking freaky.

Cool! But... how much chocolate did you have to bribe them with?!

I'd have killed NicNic for shattering their innocence! Amazed your wife lets him into your house after the Christmas one...

[oleras]

Anyone have any issues with VLC player of late, just getting the sound on the small toolbar screen, downloaded the latest one and now no picture and everytime i start it it changes the colour settings in vista ? ?

The kids always take anything Nicky says as a joke so it's all good.

You kinda had to be there but it was pretty hilarious.

It's perfect here, try reinstall or somethings.

Very different but I really prefer the original. Although oddly the original feels like the cover and vice-versa, that one definitely suits the lyrics better, but you can't beat a bit of Tears For Fears

Yeah, I like both, both tunes are so different which makes them great in their own right.
Gary Jules has arguably recorded the greatest cover ever.

i would stick the nine inch nails song hurt up there covered by cash.

[rounders123]

Maybe you will sh!t bricks when you notice it

[Opr]

Its not just one of the best covers ever but possibly the most apt song that has ever played over the ending to a film.
