Carter had the peanut farm

but you're correct, Gerry Ford fought in WW2 (Navy)

proof i didnt cheat anyhow with google

[Kayroo]

one wrong

two missing

Which one is wrong?

Teddy: Spanish American War
Truman: WW1
Eisenhower: WW2
Kennedy: WW2
LBJ WW2
Nixon: WW2
GHW Bush: WW2

So I assume Carter is wrong.

Taft and Harding never served AFAIK, George Bush Jr was a military reserve and I omitted him on purpose, I doubt Coolidge served and FDR obviously not so that leaves Ford (possible), Wilson (doubt it) and Regan (highly doubtful).

Also technically (see the sig) as they are Commander-in-Chief they all served.

Carter is wrong (never saw action)

SICKPUPPY got Ford

so just one left. It's not Reagan who was in uniform during WW2 but never saw action.

have to run

it was McKinley (Civil War)

[Lazare]

Did u ask her to marry you?
im not saying its correct but they did not declare war

They haven't declared war since WW2, their constitution makes no requirement that they do. Still war though.

According to Leanne Moore, The eurovision juries vote on the Dress rehearsal tonight instead of the show tomorrow.. Kind of weird situation, someone could fuck up the dress rehearsal and storm the live event, or vice versa..

New Approach is in the pic representing. Is that IonaPaul on the left or an impersonator?

Edit: Re the chat, don't think we should be getting any mention for most of the BS that went on in it. I ended up moving the screen so I couldn't see it.

[tylerdurden94]

Good thing that Terminal 1 and 2 at Dublin Airport are so close, you wouldn't want to make that mistake in many other airports.

Where are you off to Danny?

Slovenia, yeah true about the terminals here remember had to walk from terminal 2 to terminal 3 in Heathrow twice pretty long trek!

Have you flown before Danny?

Once when I was very young like 4/5 and then back in 09 when I went to LA & Las Vegas going over I was grand smiling like a dope but on the way back I felt a little anxious but same again today but when I got out I was grand on the flight.

cliffs on chat box?

[shano_88]

Is facebook acting up for anyone?

Hard to keep up with the amount of abuse your friend Mahony was getting. Who knows, maybe he was giving it to himself! I didn't look at it long anyway, saw a few moans about it here over the week.

Seems to be ok for me, I have noticed a little glitch in the chat thou when you get to the side of the chat box and if the word doesn't move onto a new line it wont let you insert a break and the words come out with no space between them, kinda weird.

Just checked there and its working fine on internet explorer. wierd.

Ya that happens me aswell with the chat.

You'll not profit one little bit from hearing 99% of the shite that went on in it.
I did like Caf and hit full screen so I didn't have to look at it after a while.

Been said before but the chatbox adds a big fat ZERO to the excellent livestream coverage and could easily be done without next year leaving more time for Bex to get constantly interupted and talked across by that Emmet bloke (don't get me started on him).

Zod was very funny though...'til they banned him.

Nice edit Lucky, because I was very confused!

I was reading a piece by Channing where he was saying he was pretty disheartened with all the shite that was going on n the chatbox - I suppose in some ways it helps the views interact with the show though

[JamieCarra]

Have got 1 spare (possibly 2) tickets for the Rush concert @ the O2 in Dublin tomorrow night. If anyone's interested PM me.

Meh if anyone really wants to get in contact they can email in. Chatbox moves too fast and any interesting stuff gets lost among the noise. Have you a link to that piece? Would be interested in reading it.

It gives people a voice who shouldn't have one. I'd love to hear how many people Iain(I think he had the power) banned. I agree with Bless You that it took away from the excellence of the stream, good to see it breaking records all the same. It was made worse, imo, by the fact that the commentators were interacting with the stream, ie people thinking the more they type, the more chance they have of getting a mention.

Think Danny just made this site's first mod edit from a different timezone.

Ah not so bad. I think after about 3/4 trips abroad the whole airport buzz becomes 2nd nature: check in online if possible, print itinerary + boarding passes and keep them in the pocket with your passport. Then just be on time and follow the signs basically. I always lol at how panic-stricken some people are for travelling and running around like headless chickens.

My first couple of times flying were nervous enough tbf. I can only describe it as being like the fright I had as a nipper when I got a few spins on my Dad's bikes. Equally as exciting as it was scary.

Oh and enjoy the trip or holiday.

+1, its a dangerous system to operate. perhaps a #tag system from twitter would be better next year, let people put their face to their comments, and still be able to delete the shite.

Most of the Mahony thing was in good jest. I had it on for a while before i had to switch it, but Channing got a ton of shit from the railtards and he was reading and commented on it. Marrow also got dogs abuse while commentating but think he was oblivious to it all

Positive cricket WC news for us

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/cricket/13365391.stm

Ireland's hopes of playing in the 2015 World Cup appear to have received a major boost.

Ex-Ireland captain Trent Johnston told BBC Sport on Wednesday that the ICC's Cricket Committee had "unanimously" recommended that there should be a qualifying process for the 2015 event.

Last month, the ICC announced a move to restrict the 2015 competition to the sport's 10 full members.

This led to a major outcry and the ICC later said it would revisit the issue.

Former Ireland captain Johnston was attending Wednesday's meeting as a players' representative of the associate nations.

Johnston wrote on his Twitter page: "Unanimous decision by ICC Cricket Committee to recommend to the Chief Exec Committee there be a qualifier for CWC 2015. A great result!"

A final decision on the issue is expected to be taken at the ICC's Annual Conference in Hong Kong in June.

Two weeks after the initial decision, ICC president Sharad Pawar responded to vociferous dissatisfaction among the associate and affiliate nations by requesting the executive board look again at the structure of the tournament.

Apart from Ireland, who beat England in 2011 and Pakistan at the 2007 World Cup, the other nations outside the ICC's full members to take part in the 2011 event were Kenya, Canada and the Netherlands.

Scotland, who were at the 1999 and 2007 tournaments, did not dispute the decision to limit the World Cup to 10 teams but argued there should be a qualification event.

Former England captain Michael Vaughan also called for a qualification tournament.

Cricket Ireland chief executive Warren Deutrom has insisted that the associate and affiliate nations will "keep up the pressure" on the issue.

Marrow deserved it. In fact, he probably deserved a shed load more. Abysmal performance.

[Bubbleking]

can anyone send me $300 on stars for the same on FT please? I'll ship first

I heard Channing talking about it alright but I had long tuned out by then. Marrow was lolbad tbf.

Don't know if anyone deserves anything like that though, they are giving up their free time for commentary to make the stream better(obv Marrow didn't make it better). But in the end I think the chat box should just be done away with altogether. Any requests/questions can be asked on the PPP blog.

Not really the same as the internet although I get what you're saying. I mean there is no need for people to have a voice because the feed is good enough without the chatbox. The only people I would be tuning in to hear(or who should have a voice imo) are the commentators and whoever comes along to help, like Doke. I don't see the point of the chat box and as I said I think it takes away from the stream. Lucky for me I don't have to read it.
