If his team loses, he's going to wallow in the pits of dispair, and may even go into deep depression and stop posting here. Join me here in wishing Noba's team a loss, because really we could all do with a good laugh. This has been a public service notice. A nice "mate" you turn out to be. I don't give you grief over <font size=-2>Geelong</font> bombing out - again. And you wish my team, and moi, ill. Swine. AND you saddle me with that German-ophile idiot !

MrPeng Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 OK. He's a serf. Now let's send him to Coventry. Then bring him back. Then make him eat headcheese. Then send him back to Coventry. Then make him muck out Yeknod's paddock. Then back to Coventry. Then give him really bad indian burns on both arms and an atomic wedgie. Then if he can actually write something that makes me laugh, and I mean a boffo belly laugh, not just smile quietly to myself, THEN you may take him to squirrel. Got it?

Boo Radley Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 Stupidville, Crawdads (Cadiz)... do I hear Flatt and Scruggs tuning up their banjoes? Peng in the wilds of Ohio (But where he is aint that wild unless you can squeal like a pig... or Peng, as we may find out). So, I have a chance to drive down to West (By Gawd) Virginia North to meet with the inestimable Peng to hob nob and pass judgement (and perhaps water) over the rest of the MBT. This needs much thought and rumination and... another beer. The last two weeks are right out, that much I know for certain. But we shall see. And smell.

Yah, Stupidville did have a bit of a power-reek about it. I liked the bridge into it from WV though - very stylish as suspension bridges go. I'l be making at least two more trips out there between now and the end of the year, unless I annoy the wrong office lady at the wrong time and get canned before the end of the project when I will get canned for sure.

Still, as we Geelong supporters say there's always next year. But that Grand Final 4th quarter was some of the best footy I've ever seen. Real nail biting stuff.

Stonehenge, where the demons dwell Where the banshees live and they do live well Stonehenge Where a man is a man and the children dance to the pipes of pan Stonehenge Tis a magic place where the moon doth rise With a dragon's face Stonehenge Where the virgins lie And the prayer of devils fill the midnight sky And you my love, won't you take my hand We'll go back in time to that mystic land Where the dew drops cry and the cats meow I will take you there I will show you how Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

**YK2** Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 Here's another song... Not so Jolly but just as meaningful... If you’re not the one then why does my soul feel glad today? If you’re not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way? If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all I never know what the future brings But I know you are here with me now We’ll make it through And I hope you are the one I share my life with I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am? Is there any way that I can stay in your arms? If I don’t need you then why am I crying on my bed? If I don’t need you then why does your name resound in my head? If you’re not for me then why does this distance maim my life? If you’re not for me then why do I dream of being your wife? I don’t know why you’re so far away But I know that this much is true We’ll make it through And I hope you are the one I share my life with And I wish that you could be the one I die with And I'm praying you’re the one I build my home with I hope I love you all my life.......... I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am Is there any way that I can stay in your arms? ’cause I miss you, body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away And I breathe you into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today ’cause I love you, whether it’s wrong or right And though I can’t be with you tonight know my heart is by your side......

MrPeng Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 Footie Update: Another victory for the Fury today... It was a close one, but we hung on at the end and kept the lead at 4-3, with the other team putting on massive amounts of pressure. Or should I say thier RINGER was putting on massive amounts of pressure. She was quite good, but she was trying to win the game all by herself. In contrast to our ringer, who when confronted with a defender passes the ball to a teammate, their ringer thought she could out manhouver the whole team. She did once, actually, but that gets very tiring I suppose. Madeline played like a champ in goal today, only giving up one and a cheesey one at that. There was a bit of a scrum around the goal and she was trying to get to get at the ball when a striker gave it a mighty wallop and Madge stopped the ball with her face. OUCH. Sort of stunned her a bit, and being a bunch of little girls play sort of stopped, but there was no whistle and the other team recoverd first and put one in while Madge was sort of standing there non-plussed and dazed and everyone else just milling around. I went over to her and that's when the tears started. She came out for an icepack and some TLC from mom while the game went on. She went back in as a mid in the last quarter and played fine. Natalie had an assist in the second quarter and scored her first goal of the season in the fourth. She came inches away from a second goal on a breakaway. At that point we were up 4-1. And that's when the other team went wild. They scored two goals in quick succession, but my girls held on for the victory. They are quite a bunch.

Is this even the same game that I love & cherish (at least every two years when the World cup/European Championship's is on)? I mean what is a quarter? A ringer? Or a breakaway? Still go Furious!

Joe Shaw Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 Welcome comrades to the first in our continuing series of lectures on the subject of: What the Hell's a Noba Anyway? This installment examines the possibility that it refers to ... Netarhat Old Boys Association This seems unlikely, not least because it would give credence to the dubious notion that Noba is actually educated, but also because said N.O.B.A. is in India and they CERTAINLY wouldn't let him in. Tune in for our next installment ... New Orleans Ballet Association ... it's a thigh slapper and no error. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
