Anyone else here following the rugby tour to SA?

I speak english, french. I have an understanding of some german - and I would love to learn how to speak german more fluently. I have a small amount of Italian/Spanish. I also speak Gaelic (native Irish language).

Agreed. Hastings books are excellents reads too.

I would be very surprised in Nina's mam and *** were not also very good looking people. Today seems to be a day full of talk about genetics for some reason!

Yeah, Italy too. Which is strange, given that the Roman empire conquered the known world from Gaul (France) to Philistina (Palestine) to North Africa (Libya). The racial mix of the peoples across all those territories is very diverse - yet modern Italy appears to have it's own specific DNA...

I think the only real conclusion that one may draw is that Europe is a complete mix of different genetic basis. Except for Finland, according to that map, all European nations are a mix of different genetic makeups.

This might be of interest to posters here. It is a DNA profile of European populations by Erasmus Medical Centre in Rotterdam Holland. http://strangemaps.wordpress.com/2008/08/18/306-the-genetic-map-of-europe/

I am a keen student of World War II and I have just bought and am now reading D-Day by Antony Beevor. Beevors previous books, Stalingrad, Berlin, were both superb books. Each book evoked and replayed the sheer ********* that was World War II in Russia and Germany. Beevor, an acknowledged...

You forgot the surf board, Rock!

I'm showing my age now................Mary Tyler Moore! Her show was broadcast here in the very early 1970's and as a very very young boy, I thought she was the bees knees

They're not a bad band either! Their music has improved a lot over the years

Nina is a fantastic looking girl. But. As with all fantastic looking people, a lot of their look is down to having inherited fantastic physical genes. Obviously Nina inherited great genes from her mam and ***. Naturally if she did not stay in shape, she would not look as well as she does...

I watch Bloomberg quite a bit and Ms.Deirdre Bolton takes my fancy! Brains and beauty and class. http://cdn2.maxim.com/maxim/files/2008/11/17/tvs-10-hottest-news-anchors/deirdre_bolton.jpg EDIT: Please note, this is not a picture posting forum. You are not allowed to attach pics unless you...

Johnnystyro ain't my ****** rolemodel! *when I calculated the number 9................I looked at the above list and then had to google the name johnnystyro. I didn't know who he is/was !

I would think that you need to be very physically fit to do parkour - and be able to be light on your feet and have superb hand/eye co-ordination. That's my impression at least. Fabulous way to get fit.

Parkour is a superb spectacle. Do to it - and to avoid injury - I suspect that one must be very very fit.

Neither. much prefer this. http://www.thememriblog.org/image/1886.jpg EDIT: Please note, this is not a picture posting forum. You are not allowed to attach pics unless you start a thread, or it is in ID thread. And in no case a hardcore image. Only OCSM and Content owners are exempted.Post a...

Yeah, it's a masterpiece. Ulrich ****** away shortly after the movie was released.

The Lives of Others (Das Leben der Anderen): superb

Coco-Chanel is my wifes favourite.

Like I said, brain dead. Reagan, George W >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Palin.

Palin is a cretin.............a very dangerous cretin I should add. Her ideology is similar to Bush and I think if she ever got in to office that she would be completely overwhelmed in terms of the role, in terms of understanding policy, implementing policy. She is brain dead in this posters...

Musta been a wetdream - cause the bedsheets were stuck to me!

Good question. I've discussed this with my British inlaws and friends. They have very high regard for Queen Elizabeth (the saying for Queen and Country, comes to mind). As an Irishman, I have to say that I am indifferent to Her Majesty. I'm neither pro/anti monarchy. She does a good job and...

I think it takes time to clear up the substantial mess left by Bush and his neocon cronies. Stick with Obama : I think he will prove to be a superb leader.

It was either going to be deltaoscarbravo or Erwin Rommel. I went for DOB username. *and Erwin Rommel's my avatar!

Thanks for the rep.

Does it bother you that some porn stars REFUSE to work with black guys? no.

Relationship. I wouldn't be the man I am, without my wife.

It looks like President Ahmadinejad has been re-elected. I think that President holds some very interesting and worthwhile views. I would like to see him engage Obama directly.

American hand wringing.

You a Dub as well??

Good hangover cure, 99. Personally I go for toast, poached egg, bacon - with several cups of tea. Getting hungry!

Hello - I am trying edit the title of a thread I started : the thread title should read WWII and instead its read Wwii. Can you edit the title for me to show WWII Thanks

Just wondering if any of your relatives fought in WWII? And if they did where did they take part and for who? My uncle fought with the British Army in North Africa. My maternal granduncle fought with the Wehrmacht on the Eastern Front.

Re: United except 80 million for Ronaldo! Exactly. Times have changed and the money in football is way out of proportion t the ability/skill of the guys playing. What would a Bobby Charlton or George Best fetch these days? And they could play the game. By all accounts Tom Finney was the...

Re: United except 80 million for Ronaldo! No worries! But that is crazy money - £80m!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: United except 80 million for Ronaldo! Accept. Not except. £80m is crazy money for Ronaldo : very overpriced in my view. Nice windfall for Man utd I expect Sir Alex to use the money wisely

I agree. If Americans think that Obama is socialist, then they'e deluded. I do think that some genuine socialism would help the USA though. It's been a while since I was over there, but when I visited, I was surprised at the diversity in wealth between the very very wealthy and the very poor...

Yep, Roma is a stunningly beautiful city : plenty to see/eat/*****. Paris. Love it too. But Munich for me is my favourite.

Yov've far too much time on your hands.

Hmmmmm. I think you prejudicial view of Obama obscures any attempt you make at what you claim is sarcasm. Reagan's presidency was the beginning of the decline.

The election turnout was huge. Obama's win was a massive endorsement from the electorate, Unlike 2000, for example. In fact Obama's vote, matched your hero's vote numbers. In terms of percentage vote gained, Obama emulated Reagan. oooooooooohhhhhhhhhh, the socialism...

Certain Statesiders grasp of historial/numerical/economic fact, is highly tenuous. Putting it politely.

Really? If your thesis is correct (and it isn't, I might add),then explain to me why in 1992, Clinton inherited a (then) record balance of payments deficit, trade deficit, increased unemployment levels? Those record deficits have now been surpassed by George W Bush : another Republican president.

You're way out of your depth here.

You and Mega are hilarious. Clinton's presidency was superb on many levels. In terms of international politics, he achieved the end of two conflicts, Northern Ireland (which raged since 1969) and in the Balkans where hundreds of thousands died. He almost brought an historic agreement between...

You don't know what you're talking about. The fact of the matter is that under Clinton, your country had a trade surplus, record low unemployment, balance of payments surplus, international prestige through peace deals in the Balkans and Northern Ireland. America enjoyed under Clinton...
