Myers

Can't see Myers in the team for tonight. Disapointed as I have him flagged as one of my big movers for this year. Not listed as injured on the EFC website.

Looking forward to seeing Gumby and Neagle thought. Also very happy to see Bacha back as well.

Re: World Cup Qualification Thread

I hear the players are going to wear black armbands for the bushfire victims. I reakon this will bring out that Aussie spirit and we might sneak a win.

Re: World Cup Qualification Thread

Getting ready for Wednesday. A win here could seal it for us. I'm not confident about this one though. We will miss emo and kewell. We also miss Viduka.. Kennedy got pushed around badly in our last game.

Re: Great Movie

Funny. I actually saw Frost Nixon the week before and thought it was a very good movie as well. A very small movie in terms of scope but great characters especially Frank Langella as Nixon. In that genre I saw a great movie 2 years ago called "Bobby" as in Bobby Kennedy. If you like Frost ...

Great Movie

Saw a movie after work yesterday. Slum Dog Millionaire ! and was blown away but the colors the music, the story. Take my word for it - just go see it while you can still see it on the big screen. Will win an acedemy award for sure !


Be interested to hear if anyone else has seen it.

Re: CRISIS in GAZA

I came across this article which explains why some of the hatred is so strong. Worth reading. I have this guy's recent book which is also a good read if you ever get the chance

Re: CRISIS in GAZA

Or is it because hateful old men are able to incite poorly educated unemployed young men with dreams of paradise and a better life in the next world. The reason hatefull old men are able to do this is because GAZA is a refugee camp and there is no hope for these young men. They will ive in poverty ...

Re: CRISIS in GAZA

Situation is terrible. Both sides are full of hate and I can't see an end to this. Agree with TOM. I think the only way to engineer peace is to create a secular state where Palestinians are given their property back or compensated with other land and property. It makes me so angry to see the support...

Re: Favorite Comedy

I think we are forgetting about the following comedies which must surely be found in the Panthenon of Comedy Genius. (Not in the movie section)

1. The Office (UK)
2. Extras
3. Dermot's Getaway segments
