Possibly, but Mrs Wingy will be with me. Cost me a business class ticket, she did, not to mention the shopping she'll be doing.

Reply to WingDing

It's Chicago. Nothing but the Cubs, Bulls, and pizza. You should be relatively safe.

Never heard of Chicago's magnificent mile? A prime shopping area (known to some as the million dollar mile).

This is gonna hurt. A few pints of stout might be very welcome indeed.

Reply to WingDing

Taking Mrs W to Chicago will save Jef a fortune on travel, the beer should be on him.

I bet that SOB will try to buy me a Coors.

If he does, he'll lose that self-respecting barkeep bonus.

Reply to WingDing

That sh!te has recently turned up in two ale houses I use. "Why don't you try it Tom, it's 5% just the same as the Stella you like"? asked one of the managers. Fcuking retard, WTF has the alcohol content of piss got to do with taste? It's also quite popular in Halifax, but I don't expect much from farmers anyway.

My local just got some decent Budvar on tap. Really good stuff.

Reply to WingDing

I take that the Poles have moved in then. Say what you like about immigrants, I'm a big fan of anything that forces pubs to sell decent beer.

Reply to Tom_Smart

You can say that again. At least there's one upside to having them here. That and cheap building labour.

Reply to WingDing

Stella is 5.2% I believe, but as Tom said, f*ck the alcohol content, Coors should only be forcibly tried due to a lost bar bet. Even then, a copping out wouldn't be frowned upon... Better to simply take a punch in the stomach. It won't hurt as much.

Sounds very familiar. A lot of families in Liverpool rely on building work in some shape or form. Those families, and often, entire neighbourhoods are less than happy about the influx of cheap labour. Racism, unfortunately, is on the increase.

I can see the BNP gaining a foothold here in much the same way they have in places like Oldham and Burnley. Turning a once rational person who's had their livelihood taken away by, to them, invaders, isn't to tricky a task.

Luckily we are also somewhat of a militant crowd too, hopefully we'll demand and force some government intervention before it gets too bad.

WHAT???? I heard that Pats lost, but to the Dolphins??? I'd've put Wingy getting anal before the Dolphs beat the Pats in the near future!

Sig isn't any gayer than you are. You make the decision there and tell me how gay it is.

hah, talk about racism, up here we have tons of poles and other eastern europeans. for the most part all of them are really nice, hard working people unlike the majority of native scum i see and yet you still get comments about them.(it's getting harder to bite my tongue these days)

the worst part is that they have to be working before they can get a council house here, natives don't. seriously, i would rather have people who want to be here housed than people who just happened to be born here.

also, for some reason i can't recall any ugly young polish women coming over, some alright and a good few quite good looking but none as ugly as alot of the locals you get.

nope, apart from the language barrier, i have nothing bad to say about them.

Here's a cool song put together by Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam. He's a Chicago native and understands our suffering. The first one has better audio, the second one is a cool video montage the local cable channel put together for the Cubs.

I hope so! We have a shot, and as much as I'd like to see Milwaukee make the playoff's, I don't want to beat the snot out of the Mets and then lost to Milwaukee. Considering that whoever makes it we could be playing, I say we need to win all of them.

ImageCave is just like photobucket. If you saw that screen shot of the Ray's score, then set up a free Image Cave acct and beat the filter (for now).

Which is why I said I'd have to look into it.

For a while, Photobucket was hit / miss. I couldn't get there, but I'd see Tom's spinning signs in his sig, then I'd reply, and by the time the page would re-load, they'd be blocked...

Truth is ... I haven't talk about the Rays because (before this year), they stunk! I haven't been to a single game in 4-5 years. When I would hear about the Rays rookie 3rd baseman, Evan Longoria (who should be Rookie of the Year in the AL) ... I always thought they were talking about Eva Longoria ... seriously ... and I thought there was some kind of a joke going on :whistle:

I just started following the team late this season (when they were winning), so yeah, I'm guilty of being a fare weather fan. Susan, my companion, is from Boston, so we always kind of followed the Red Sox ... but just at the end of the year. The Yankee's play spring training here and I've seen a few games (mostly to just drink beer and not hassle with crowds) - but I'm not a Yankees fan at all.

Maybe that makes me a baseball hypocrite ... I'll admit that. I'm a football fan. That's about it.

Just like I told the cop while I was cutting down the MIS banner that still hangs in my garage........

Officer = What are you cutting down that banner for???? [hand on pistol]

Me = Race car fan Sir!!!!!

Officer = Looking at his shoes laughing, Take It.....

So I did & it's still in the garage like I said..... [devil]
