Westerners are quick to criticise other countries such as those found in the middle east because of an apparent 'lack of freedom'.
The West has it's ways, the middle east has their ways. It is grim when people start piping up about how awful these countries treat their women etc, and the lack of freedom. Who are others to state how they should run their own land? Leave them be.
loo and behold!

it seems that americans are keen to get amongst the big boys when it comes to soccer skills as can be seen from the embedded page futher down this post.. however, i have a sneaky feeling that americans might well be lacking in the genetic skills department when it comes to actually understanding the finer points of the noble art of soccer, let alone having any natural aptitude for the game.
this is a an excerpt from a book by bill bryson, a very popular american author who keeps us brits amused for hours with his experiences of living in england.this is bill's account of his first ever attempt to play soccer:.
"i had watched football (soccer) on tv and i thought i had a fair idea of what was required, so when one of the team lofted a ball in my direction, i decided to flick it casually into the net with my head, the way i had seen kevin keegan do it.
Big headed Yanks
have you ever won anything in your life?
i didn't, but indirectly i did.
back in 1982 my mother won a brand new honda civic.
At birth, I won a 'onehellofashittylife' award.
I feel so privalidged.
Other than that, many years ago I remember winning a bear at a football match lol
may you all have peace... .
.... and the answer can be found at genesis 6:1-4. cain was afraid of being killed... and the only killers... or "fellers"... of men... at that time... were the nephilim... "avengers of blood"... who were in the earth at that time.
these, by reason of being spirit beings were "like god, knowing good (life) and bad (death), for vengeance was their vocation.. these... were posted outside eden... stationed in the land of fugitiveness... or "nod.

Maybe it's just a fairy tale.

Fine post.
I remember Alexi 'Wild Man' Lalas heading home the 2nd goal in our 2-0 deafeat away to the Yanks a while ago when Turnip was in charge. That was humiliating enough, but I have still got a suspicion the Yanks will beat us soon, judging by how well they played at the World Cup.
I remember at France 98 when USA played Iran, and Iran won 3-1. That was a fine moment, but I think the American's are rapidly rising to the top, I hate to say it, but they seem to have the will to be the best.
i took the quiz and i got:.

Lo, the Matrix was a good movie, but thats all it is man, a movie.
My brother started to go off on a tangent about it also, and how he waiting right until the end of the film to see the trailor to the next movie..... I think people take movies too seriously. He also told me that he left the cinema and 'had to sit down' because he was so 'amazed' at what he had seen. This boarders on insanity and sadness.
Yet, whatever floats your boat.
