"Your World is about to get a whole lot smaller" the end of cheap oil just started it, looks good relates the "peak oil" phenomenon to the economic concequences of said phenom. not a complete "brainwashed egghead"..... also just finished "the Burning Land" -5th book in the saxon stories series by Bernard Cornwell and "Under the Dome" by Stephen King

the freestyle (moguls, arials and ski-cross) are at the hills surrounding (and visible from) vancouver and I think the halfpipe and slalom snowboard events are as well but I can't remember which is where Cypress and Seymour are the ones that come to mind but then there is Grouse Mtn as well. When they take photos/film the snow boarders from uphill at the halfpipe there will be some crazy shots of downtown vancouver as the back drop, it looks like the riders are going to land across Seymour Arm. HOCKEY!!! OLYMPIC HOCKEY, MAN!!! Can't wait to see U.S., Canada, Russia, and Czech Republic. Those are going to be some strong teams. Canada taking the top line from the Sharks, U.S. throwing a young and inexperienced gritty team out there, Datsyuk centering Ovechkin and Semin? Wow. Gonna be some good puck being played. i'm worried though canada has had a bad habit of choking on the big stage...(sound familiar) so much hype for the olympic team and how 'it's our game so of course we'll get the gold medal', but just look at the world junior tournament this year and we got out played by the US team. I just hope there isn't a sense of entitlement by the canadian players. but i agree its going to be some great hockey

Aren't Pompey struggling to name a bench these days as well? Fwiw I'd go with. --------------Harper -------Willy Colo Kadar Jose Routledge Smith Guthrie Jonas ------------Nolan Carroll But operating more like. 4-1-3-1-1 because all too often our central midfield is 20 yards behind the play It aint FM2010 son. No PLPLSOAFFG? 5-0 tonight. pardon my ingnorance but wtf is that? Pish League Pish League Shite Overpaid Arseholes Fuckin Fortysix Games cheers Peter Lovenkrands, Peter Lovenkrands, Signed On A Free From Germany - its a song in the ground, apologies. no worries, i wouldn't have known the difference, all i can ever get the game on is a gamecast or sometimes the radio newcastle stream and i can never hear the words to the singing

indeed february in canada....... swimming pools are all frozen and have people playing hockey on them The winter Olympics is it classed as an Olympics? I didn't even know what country it was in, in fact the only one I can ever remember was in Canada, Calgary I think. I don't even think we show it on TV let alone publicise it. like i said before 'magnifying glass trained on the UK' , and it doesn't surprise me about the lack of coverage, UK isn't really (on a normal year) a winter sport hotbed is it?however there is a huge world out beyond the borders of the UK stevie, i know i know.....none of it will be as good as it is in the UK, but it might not be all bad either...... True. It aint all bad. You seem to think the UK just considers the UK, especially in sport, but we're not that insular, we get Spanish football here on a weekend, and Italian although most normal people don't watch Serie A. hahahaha......no stevie i was talking about you.......

Thats what they call me I come up with some cracking ideas / business plans but am shite at turning them into reality! Thats the problem when your "creative". (special) Tell us one of your business ideas. Selling mobility aids such as scooters. Massive and growing market, old people living longer and demanding to stay as independant as possible. Currently have a spare bedroom full of scooters but cant be arsed to "get on with it". Also researched several franchises such as cash generator and then put off going ahead with it and watch some other fucker open it instead. Typical creative tbf You need a shop for that I guess? You'd have to sell a fair few mind. What is a cash generator? As franchises go its pretty decent and quite recession proof . Currently opened over 100 franchise stores throughout the UK https://www.cashgenerator.co.uk/franchise-opportunities so it's a pawn shop? why didn't you just say so?

once I get my P.Eng. I am going to start my own business, register it anyway and start designing/project managing custom homes for people, I've been keeping a folder of ideas for this for the last 2-3 years and I have been building a scale model of my first design which uses old shipping containers as the main building material.

really you bought used shoes? a false (and foolish) assumption is that everything on ebay is used 5 pound for new ones.....maybe...but i take your point

really ? who do you work for? my advice if your company has a vancouver office opt for that one, calgary is a strange 'city', thinks it's bigger than it is and then you have the country music aspect as well (not the good stuff either like Willie or Waylon just the new country rock shit). A Consultant Engineers, we have one there too. Calgary is close to Banff though The problem with Banff is that is in Alberta, and at the risk of sounding like stevie with an anti-(insert non new castle region) (no offense stevie) tirade with alberta as my target. BC is miles (kilometres) better than AB, I am assuming you've been to banff since you have it as a reason for going to calgary. Most of BC is like banff without all the tourists and painfully high prices (except for beer. booze is cheap in AB). Not to mention that vancouver is a far superior to calgary as a city you have the mountains the ocean and all the ammenities of a major metropolitan center, and none of that crappy country rock shit that calgary has.

I reckon 75% of people on here won't know what you mean by any of the points I highlighted, some of the 75% will pretend they do, but what's an okanagan, a kootenays, and the Olympics are in two years time here in England but most people I talk to don't care. The World Cup is 100 times bigger in my view. i'm sorry i didn't realize i had to run these past you for approval.... FFS.....use google man, the internet really is a modern wonder.....btw the olympics start in 3 weeks Paralympics like? Aye Leazes still blocked yes those too, but no those don't start till after the olympics are over it's all well and good to live with your magnifying glass trained on the UK stevie, but aren't you worried about the sun hitting it? You know the best thing about geordies mate, they don't talk in riddles like yanks. oh dear.....i don't think the yanks on here will like that very much

1. leaving the okanagan in a month going back to deepest darkest west kootenay's 2. grossly out of shape but #1 should take care of that 3. surprisingly non-plussed about the olympics (torch went through town last night/today) 4. nervous about registering for my professional designation in two months time 5. pissed at myself for being to cheap to splurge for setanta ( so my chances of seeing NUFC on TV are slim to none)

"Take it again, I blinked!" Looks like a life-size game of chess btw, poised at check mate. ...you're right it does

keep in mind these stats are for flights for the states any given day there are 87,000 flights in the air over the US, so thats 31755000 per year (source http://www.natca.org/mediacenter/bythenumbers.msp ) how many planes are blown up every year, I have no idea and could find no info but for the sake of argument lets say 100 which seems high I think we'd all remember if there were 100 planes blown out of the sky every year. that gives a .000003 percent chance of being blown up by a terrorist every time you step on a plane. i have to say i like those odds, and i like them enough to say that i don't want any of the freedom that i enjoy taken away because the terrorist color of the day has changed from yellow to orange. but then what do i know.......

Curdling as we speak. If he weren't a boring cunt, who devotes more than half his posts to me it could, but I should be flattered people devote so much attention to me to be fair. just questioning your motivations, are you ashamed of your beliefs or something? If you don’t want your opinions challenged, why post them? Which particular opinions (with direct quotes from me) do you feel the need to challenge? Don't give some ambiguous attention seeking bollocks neither. ^ crikey Stormfront shut down for the day. Stevie, your opinions have been noted before, isn’t that why you lost your privileges? you then revert to kind with your avatar, which as previously has deep racist undertones. as for a quote: HappyFace: That's possibly the most punchable face I've ever seen Stevie: Can you not see my avatar like? I detest racism, however people try to use it. You continue to ignore my queries about what message you are trying to get across, so have made this charade, I can only presume coward regarding your beliefs, but you still want to represent them and when questioned you go “sssshhh go away lad”, etc. Explain your reasons for the Avatar then? I'll be the first one to admit I don't agree with a lot of Stevie's views but getting him to explain his avatar seems a bit '1984' to me....FFS since when is taking the piss been an issue on this board......btw i thought the burning american flag was a better avatar
