Had tickets to see Folds a couple of years back. Put them away in a drawer somewhere when they arrived and completely forgot about them and ended up missing it >_>

There was a rumour flying around when it first hit fame that he WAS Ben Folds..

Ben Folds plays tribute to the Chatroulette Improv man at a concert:

I'm going to be playing in defence in South Africa at this rate...

Pun intended?

I expect Ashley and Llambias to try and sweep it under the carpet with a string of hilarious press releases that, in some unknown way, all end up being a pro-Ashley statement. "Oh no it's all just got a bit misconstrued! Steven had just heard Mike was in the office and was going to congratulate him on what a fine job he has done at the club when Andrew, after a meeting about how financially sound Mike had made the club, opened the door and unfortunately caught poor Steven!" e.t.c e.t.c.

If you don't use mega amounts of band width then I can't help but recommend Zen Broadband. It won the Which Magazine award for best customer service and customer satisfaction, and even better is that you are on a rolling month-to-month contract, so if you do want to change providers then you aren't tied into one of these long 18 month contracts. Their call centre is based in England and is run by all English people (if that sort of thing matters to you), and they have a handy 'Web Chat' feature that you can use to talk to them in an MSN-style IM window (which I found to be quite an odd experience. I was unsure if the likes of "lol" and "brb" were accepted etiquette in such a chat! ) But if you really are looking for a new ISP, then at least check them out!

Urgh just got a major glitch in Manager Mode >_> Got the message that I didn't have a full squad to play, so I went to MM and didn't see anything wrong. Tried again, but same message. So I changed the team completely but still didn't work. Just had to forfeit the game, which meant getting knocked out of the CL, and losing a massive 22 Rep. points ang going from a 5 star manager to a 3 star one :s What a piss take...

This is the only month we've gone over it, which I assume is down to my own excessive downloading. Has otherwise been fine with two laptops, the Xbox and my phone all using the same connection. Will just have to live with it for this month until it is reset again on the first!

At the moment I have Broadband with a 25G bandwidth allowance. We never normally go over that, but this morning we did and I had to add some more. No real problem, but I have some questions about what bandwidth is and how it is worked out. Now, the main reason I think it has gone over is because I have been trying to 'acquire' the Sims 3, and after the first DL didn't work I am currently 'acquiring' a multi-pack that includes all updates and the expansion pack. This is a massive file (Just under 13GB). Does this mean that downloading this file would use up 13GB of the monthly allowance? Also how much bandwidth is generally used with day to day usage of the internet. Lets say I am running MSN, Skype, and Firefox, and maybe saving the odd picture here and there. How much, approximately, am I likely to be using?

Only know of Big Star because of Elliott Smith's cover of 'Thirteen' R.I.P (Both Elliott and Alex Chilton)

if youve still got the box then use steam Will have a good look tomorrow. Chances are that it's been put into a box somewhere, as we are planning to move house in the near future.

Can't find my FM disc anywhere :/ Got a proper big urge to get back into playing this as well!

I just wonder if there is some sort of problem to do with a build up of stuff? Don't what that could be, but certainly I never had problems with FF until recently. Had ran fine on an old laptop w/ XP, on the old PC with XP, and for the majority of time on this laptop with Vista. Was only in the last few months that it started playing up. Will just have to wait and see if I get problems after prolonged use of it in Windows 7!

With this very window open, and Facebook open in another tab Firefox is running at 48K. Explorer runs at half that CPU usage, although I wasn't logged in to either Facebook or TT (if that makes a difference). Haven't bothered to install chrome again as Firefox has been running fine.

I did a complete reformat of my hard drive and installed Windows 7 on it, and thus far Firefox has been working perfectly again.

Of course there is the Newcastle connection, but I probably speak for most people here when I say Sir Bobby Robson. I'm sure that had he never been connected to the club we would all still say it. An absolute gent of a man, and a great example of a human being both in and out of football. I quite like Jose Mourinho as well. He just made me laugh, and I think his arrogance is great!

Can't even begin to explain how much this made me laugh! A must for all you chatroulette 'fans' out there:

Paul O'Grady doesn't look too chuffed with that Italy shirt.

Is having a massive spike in activity right now as was mentioned on the Jon Stewart show in America. There is also a rumour that some of the people who invested in Facebook want to invest in it. Not sure what they would do with it, mind :/

Is it Danquah who is launching the rap career, or is that Baheng?

Wasn't LuaLua out for quite a bit due to injury? I think that contributed towards it, because he was getting a few run outs last season.

you clearly didn't read the warning You don't see the warning when you click on the thread straight from the forum homepage. Even so, I would quite like to read what people are saying without wretching at the picture

Shit. Seriously, can we at least make that picture into a link so I can browse the thread without wanting to throw up? I can't stand looking at bad injuries at all

West Brum 2 - 1 up. I have a feeling Derby will grab an equaliser before the game is up, mind...Not that I'm watching the game or anything, just a feeling
