Funny you should say that. I went out on my Harley and held up a 7/11 last weekend for a pack a jacks. I'm ditchin the Harley though. Too many wannabes ridin' 'em. And it isn't fast enough gettin' away from the cops.
I think I really do love you. Just curious, not that it would seal the deal or anything, but do you have and Australian accent? Or could you like fake one really well possibly? :p

Of course if someone has a better idea for a game....go for it.
I think drinking should be involved....

One of my favorite foods is lasagna, which is coming out of the oven in 5 minutes....

[PS. But what I actually want is garlic-buttered grilled lobster, preceded by a lightly fried calamari and the best sauce imaginable, and followed by a delectable creme brulee, all washed down by an '82 Chateau Lafitte sitting at a candle-lit table in a restaurant on the cobblestoned margins of the Champs Elysee in the company of the girl of my dreams;) )
Dude, you're killin' me....I don't think Cinderella is leaving the building any time soon. ;)

But it get's better. I won't put "mate" on the end of every sentence (which would really annoy you, as it does the rest of the world).
But it wouldn't sound as Austrine as Steve Irwin, RIP, "Crikey, she's real angry this snake" [as he pokes it constantly with a stick].

But I'm considering you. If Helmut comes back, I'm yours.

What an excellent idea. Though it might be frightening waking up the next morning and reading the story sober.:eek:

I grew up in Northeastern PennsylvaniaHey Frigo, did you live anywhere near Punxsutawney, the site of one of my favorite movies - Groundhog Day.
Incidentally, in that movie, I could never understand why one of the times he woke up in his time warp, he didn't just drive straight out of Punxsutawney. I mean, the storm didn't hit until later.

There have been a few threads which have run as monologues, so you're not unique in that regard. In fact there's a chap called Fausto Coppied who seems to have an entire subforum of his posts, so you've got a bit more work to do.
Back to movies meanwhile, Lim's list jogged my memory a little and I have to add to my list ....
Withnail and I
Seven Samurai
Throne of Blood
Kagemusha
Chocolat
Babette's Feast
Amelie
Henry and June. Great movie. Uma Thurman naked all over the place and a real story too. Plus Henry talks about riding the Sixes at Madison Square Garden.

The pizza will be almost frozen when it reaches Seatle. They "par bake" the stuff and then freeze it. It defrosts in transit and you simply pop it in your oven.

Has anybody ever broken the scaphoid bone in their wrist? I crashed four years ago and hurt my wrist. However, since it was my first year of racing, I didn't want to miss any part of the season so I avoided going to the doctor. After about a year, the excruciating pain began to slowly subside. Although in the past six months its gotten worse. So, I finally went to an orthopedic surgeon. After telling me it was still broken, he asked why the freak I didn't go to the doctor when it happened. I told him it was racing season and I didn't want to miss any time... He immediately understood. Turns out he used to race for my team.
I now have to get a screw inserted and will be off of the bike for a few months. My question is what extent, if any, will I loose mobility in the wrist in the future.
Thanks

ThanksWas that last question just inserted to give you a reason to tell us about your broken wrist (which I am very sorry that you have been in pain for so long BTW).
I mean......ASK THE FRICKIN DOCTOR, Frigo.

ThanksBro Deal is going to be real pissed at that spelling error. It's his pet peeve.

ThanksSeriously though, with my limited medical knowledge, your wrist should repair as good as new. Unless there is permanent scarring of your ligaments which IMO is unlikely.
Once the weak link in the chain is fixed, and the pins come out, Voila...you are the man/cyclist you were four years ago, without the pain.
In any case, if there is any residual pain after your rehab period is over - ask the doctor for a topical injection of cortisone. Often fixes things overnight - especially around the small bones of the hands and feet. Worked for me.

Oh Brother Where Art Thou?
The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover (a bit disturbing, but an interesting movie nonetheless)
Das Boot
Cat Ballou
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
Some Like it Hot
