Random Things on Your Mind (Part 5)

My basketball team had a big win in their 2nd semi final tonight, going through to the Grand Final.

 

[PrideOf]

Yup.

Organised my best mate's surprise bucks show on Saturday night at the Hackney, once he was alcoholically unconscious I got him home, then walked back to the Hackney, drove to Adelaide Oval, got in the line - I was about tenth, and i had a sleep on the ground for an hour. They started bringing the turf out, but wouldn't give it out until Tom Koutsantonis (?) arrived for the photo op. Got home about 9.30am, 4 slabs, in the garden now.

PrideOf did you get any?

Good on you deaneus. What was the turf like?

We were heading in but spent the night with two sick kids. Nothing but vomiting and crying for four hours. Kind of like a Redbacks first innings.

PrideOf geez it's really nice turf. Beautiful grass and good thick soil.

Anyone know why Graham Cornes hasn't been on the sports show for a few weeks now?

macca23 said he was on holidays

 

[macca23]

macca23 said he was on holidays

Correct. Back at work at 5aa today.

Apparently he had a heap of accumulated leave (other 5aa employees did too) and management has been getting them to take some leave to get 5aa's leave liability down.

Rowey has been mischievously suggesting that Cornesy had time off to have work done on his face.

Obviously not true, because no plastic surgeon of any repute would want to be vaguely linked to a head like that.

So was it heavy rain you guys got ?

Aussies about to lose 4-0, first time that's happened since 1969-70 in South Africa.

Time for another review?

My basketball team had a big win in their 2nd semi final tonight, going through to the Grand Final.

And tonight I found out we will win the Grand Final by default as both our potential opponents played unregistered players in yesterday's Prelim Final.

I agree with Homer Simpson now when he describes default as '

The two sweetest words in the English language!' ​

So much for the Argus review.

Congratulations

Actually, my first thought was that he looked better than he usually does.

Hey guys, sorry to intrude. Inspired by the brilliant "Top 100 Movies/TV Shows" threads on the Media and Entertainment board (definitely check 'em out if you haven't - they're great), I thought I'd create one for video games which can be found here.

Would really, really love your input so we can have a bigger sample size and therefore more accurate results.

Cheers.

It takes ages to do anything, scroll down, initially load, its rediculous they haven't sorted it out after years of it being the same on all there models. It's the only negative with them. But a big negative.

If I had to rank rapper's names that included "Ice", it would be

Ice-T
Ice Cube
Vanilla Ice

Ice-T is a great name. I've never liked Ice Cube very much, but it's still better than Vanilla Ice.

To be honest, not a clue in hell

I think a contributing factor was how close to mad march Easter fell this year. So much money would have been drained from the public over the last month. Easter is as early as it can be.
