There has been laods and they are all crap.
Wanted, Jumper, Push.
All the same.
Male lead with dead parents discovers his has powers; or male lead is rebelous due to his powers.
Meets mentor with same problems and powers.
They bond for a while, one teaching the other.
The mentor has a god complex.
They split ways as enemys.
The younger one trains, *insert montage*
They meett again, do battle, the male lead wins as he is the chosen one

I assume you are all glued to The Voice of Ireland?
I think one of the strongest thus far is this guy who got a somewhat lukewarm reaction till the end. Almost thought they were sending the harmonica through to the next round.
I think he has potential to keep delivering as the show progresses when many others won't.
This guy certainly was interesting:
(awkward moment from 1.40 - 1.45
)
Also found this interesting, it's good and possibly shit at the same time, need to hear more to find out which.
Lastly I predict Keane will like this:

Watched Casino Royale.
I was not aware of this.This film replaces the high-stakes casino game of Baccarat / Chemin de Fer from the novel "Casino Royale" with the modern high-stakes card game of Texas Hold 'Em (also spelled Texas Hold'em or Texas Holdem). Interestingly, in this game, a hand with a pair of eights is called an "Octopussy", the name of both a James Bond short story and movie (See: Octopussy). A hand with a pair of eights is actually seen in the movie.

I've been awake all night reading and reflecting on a few things and I caught my eye in the bathroom mirror and Thomas Kinsellas words struck me as being particularly apt. Good morning BBV.
Mirror in February
by Thomas Kinsella
The day dawns, with scent of must and rain,
Of opened soil, dark trees, dry bedroom air.
Under the fading lamp, half dressed - my brain
Idling on some compulsive fantasy -
I towel my shaven jaw and stop, and stare,
Riveted by a dark exhausted eye,
A dry downturning mouth.
It seems again that it is time to learn,
In this untiring, crumbling place of growth
To which, for the time being, I return.
Now plainly in the mirror of my soul
I read that I have looked my last on youth
And little more; for they are not made whole
That reach the age of Christ.
Below my window the wakening trees,
Hacked clean for better bearing, stand defaced
Suffering their brute necessities;
And how should the flesh not quail, that span for span
Is mutilated more? In slow distaste
I fold my towel with what grace I can,
Not young, and not renewable, but man.‘IF YOU had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.” Genghis KhanComment

The bench is sickeningly good. Hari!
Ireland team to be named at 13:15 today. The 22 should be
1. Healy
2. Best
3. Ross
4. POC
5. Ryan/Tuohy
6. Ferris
7. SOB
8. Heaslip
9. Reddan
10. Sexton
11. Earls/Trimble
12. D'Arcy
13. EOM
14. Trimble/Bowe
15. Kearny
16. Cronin
17. Court
18. Ryan/Tuohy
19. Henry/POM
20. Murray
21. ROG
22. McFadden
expect to see DK make some ropey calls, potentially playing Earls or McFadden at 13, when Earls is a born 11, McFadden a 12/14. We'll see wingers having to bust their balls to manage to get a pass from either Earls of McFadden. Also, any inclusion for some of the oldies - DOC / Paddy Wallace, or some of the guys who are already beginning to get shone up by youngsters - Jennings in particular would be unsurprising unfortunately.
Earls is a broken field runner that can be completely neutered by realising that he never throws a pass, and when the ball comes to him from the right, he jinks right, and when it comes from the left he jinks left. Every single time.
McFadden takes a lot out of the ball too, that's why I feel his game is more suited to 12/14. He is a powerful runner, and great in close quarters rugby, but doesn't have the distribution skills to play outside centre. He's also liable to a bit of headlessness in defence.
If we see Bowe at 13 though, I might have to end it.
we've lost last 3 games against Wales where we went for the conservative, probe the corners game that ROG is king at. They've got a back 3 that won't kick a ball back to us, and that's what hurts ROG's game. They've speed and evasiveness, and when the time comes that they must kick, Halfpenny's got one of the biggest boots in the game, he'll rarely if ever miss a touch, and we make a net gain of <10yards almost always.
I'm sick of seeing us kick the ball away anyway, we're a good enough side to play some rugby.Comment

I've loved the poem since I was 16 but I have reached the age of Christ at long last so perhaps you are right.

ODE TO A WORM
Ooey Gooey was a worm,
A mighty worm was he.
He sat upon a railroad track,
A train he did not see.
The train came roaring round the bend,
The driver gave a squeal,
The guard got out his pocket knife,
And scraped him off the wheel.
Ooey Gooey!Comment

Christ? No estimate of the length of his life can be accurately confirmed in the historical record; in fact, it cannot be definitively confirmed that Jesus was indeed a historical figure and not just myth! Though the majority of historians do believe he actually existed. When you take an overview of Jesus and strip away his importance in later eras, you can see why no real data on him would exist; he was born of poor stock in a remote(-ish) corner of the Roman empire, achieved minor local fame / infamy in his home province over the course of his life as the leader of an Eastern cult (loads of them around at that time) and was executed along with other minor ne'er-do-wells. Considering the lives of many Roman emperors, the most powerful men in that part of the world at the time, are not always well understood due to lack of historical records, it isn't surprising that we know practically nothing about the facts of the life of Jesus of Nazareth.Originally posted by Hitchhiker's Guide to...
