    Tunes that are just fucking ace..... 1 2 3 4 239

    by Guest Ulysses Everett McGill

    Y'know, just fucking boss tunes, tunes that you instinctively turn up to 11. Just had my iPOD on shuffle walking down the shops, and I got that immersed in "Life on Mars" i walked right past the fucking shop, and only realised about 150 yards further down the road. Other tune that can do that to me, "There she goes" by The La's, can get totally lost in that. Anyone else get this, or am i just fucking weird

    Usain Bolt just jogged 9.92 for the 100m. Gay and the other Jamacian haven't a chance. Even Michael Johnson is saying he's seen nothing like it. Does this go in swimming?

    images of war 1 2 3 4 45

    by neko

    i was just browsing earlier for an image and i realize that i have amassed, over the years, quite a good collection of images of warfare. i hardly remember where/when i found them all, but it definitely took some effort. i thought i might share some with the forum....i'll skip the more common ones that are familiar and easy to find, and post some of the more obscure images that are historically important, or just great photographs. i hope this is well received for its historic value - i don't have an agenda, nor am i some sort of war monger. i studied military history in university, and was always fascinated with warfare since i was a boy. i also have more than a…

    Just finished watching Bosch on Prime and for my sins watched Transformers: Age of Extinction recently. Didn't realise he was in that. IMDB informs me was also in Lost and Star Trek Voyager. Post in this thread any current actors who you've spotted in other films or TV series that you'd never previously noticed.

    The smoke has cleared, the dead have been counted, the battle is over and King Harold Godwinson and his Saxons troops have won. William the bastard has copped an unfortunate in the goads and his Norman Knights are on the retreat back to where they came from, a bit like England ever since. In your view, what would the difference be in the make up society and social structure and would England and the integration of the United Kingdom have been any different?

    Serious things you shouldn't laugh at 1 2 3 4 53

    by She Knows It

    Really heartbreaking story. One of my closest friends lost her brother last week and is obviously absolutely devastated. He has 2 young kids (age 4 and 7). I was talking to her yesterday and she was in tears telling me how they'd broken the terrible news to the children, specifically the 7 year old. I asked how he'd taken it and what he'd said and, still in tears, she told me the kid had replied "Can I have his phone?" I don't think I've ever struggled so hard to keep a straight face.

    Random musical chat. 1 2 3 4 99

    by Carvalho Diablo

    Thought it might prove interesting to put a few things out there and just see where it takes us. Like I said, random. Sugar's Copper Blue is one of the best pop albums ever recorded. Karate are one of my favourite bands and they should have been massive. As much as I love Radiohead, I still find Kid A unlistenable. Dave Gilmour's 2nd solo in Comfortably Numb (from Floyd's live Pulse album) is the greatest guitar solo ever. The Police's best song is The Bed's Too Big Without You. Shane MacGowan is a brilliant singer. Metallica would be a far better band without both Kirk and Lars.

    Very funny show. Dont know if anyone here has seen it, definately a great american Import in the same vein as Arrested Development, Seinfeld and even Curb. I was recommended it earlier in the year and it was repeated over Christmas, I can definately recommnd picking up the box set. Alec Baldwin is fantastic as the studio boss Jack Donaghy. YouTube - Random Insults from Jack to Liz Also Kenneth the Page is excellent YouTube - Random Kenneth Parcell Quotes And Liz Lemon the show is boss is weirdly hot, she is Tina Fey the same woman that does the impressions of Sara Palin.

Bidden, Obama`s running mate stating something big is about to happen after the election. an mi5 whistleblower saying an attack is coming to the west and we cant do anything about it.
