Man, Katsulas was such a great actor. Convincing in almost every role. Sad to see so many dying--I loved that show (as you can tell from my user name)

Always felt that Hughes was an unsung hero for us. Never the first name on the team sheet, but always on it. Suffered from Stevie Watson's ailment: I think his 'versatility' led to never being played in his preferred postion (centre back) where he had a great season when allowed to play there. Felt he would make an excellent captain too.

IIRC when his english improved to the point that we could understand him, he was unbearably annoying and abusive.

He got it because he's bent and black, killed two birds with one stone imo. Looks good on the stats having a bent, black bloke working for you, shows you'll give anyone a chance. 89953[/snapback] Yes, clearly racism has been eliminated in the U.K. 89954[/snapback] It's just something else we have copied from the yanks 89955[/snapback] Not much of an argument, is it? The reality of racism is a lot subtler and a lot more insidious than most "white" people understand. Given my ethnic background, and the fact that I live in one of the most diverse countries in the world (even if it's not the most diverse part of the country) I have been (mis)taken for: White/Caucasion Arab Mexican Cuban Hispanic Asian South Asian Italian Spanish I've been assumed to be good at maths. I've been assumed to be a straight laced, straight A student. I've been assumed to be tight with my money. I've been assumed to be irresponsible and tardy. I've been assumed to be a passionate latin lover with a "latin temper." I've been assumed to have a small penis. I've been assumed to have a large penis. I've been assumed to be a muslim, hindu, orthodox christian, jew and lutheran. I've been told to go back to at least three different countries which I have never even visited. Not all of these are negative, but they all are racist. As someone with indeterminate ethnicity, I'm often assumed to be an immigrant. Since my children won't appear to be 'white' they will too. Depite the fact that they'll be sixth-generation americans, they won't be 'americans' they'll be 'indian-americans' or some such hyphen.

Shocking how England and all things English are always so horribly mistreated around the world.

Should've given him more time. Judge him when his squad is fit tbh.

Not even going to bother listening to the rest of the game. I'll watch it when I get home from work. We'll see how much of it is on fast forward. -

Sure seems like a fucking waste of water given the fact that it is a desert. -
He could be, but he keeps placing bets on his players as first scorer...

83584[/snapback] Genuine helpful advice tbh 83589[/snapback] Aye, a knarrr man. I happen to agree but I just liked the way you said it. In all honesty Zath, I like the sentiments but I'd be cautious about overdoing it! Minister in a referees outfit might be apt mind. 83593[/snapback] Really the only thing we're doing is football bowls filled with Hot Nuts, which are a bit of an in-joke amongst the Thunder Faithful.

The human brain is an amazing organ. It will extrapolate from the single eye image to create an image like you would see with two eyes based on what the one will see. It's basically making symetry assumptions, so certain things will be missed, but you can certainly see pretty damn well withonly one eye.
