I have to say that I've called a couple of drivers plum or wankers after they've gone past me texting or cut me off. They've followed me and indicated they want to discuss it further, so I've pulled over, got off the bike and waited for them, idly swinging my reasonably large sized Kryponite D-Lock...

Would Nigel Mansells idea or forcing the teams to have better brakes that last longer and giving them better tyres make for better racing At the very least they'd get to drive the cars at 100% instead of 75% Well, the limiting factor then would be the maximum fuel flow and maximum fuel usage regula...

Indeed. May as well make use of it.

It turns out the creator successfully sued the Guardian for printing this in 1991.

The Cabin Boy was called Tom.

That's interesting, because "Tom" is also slang for "have sex with".

That's about the same as the bookmaker odds, which give New Zealand about a 40% chance of winning.

I'm guessing the guy has autism. Why would you say that? My son has autism and he wouldn't dream of punching anything in the face. I guess you don't know what autism is.

Given the 20-25 tents in the park outside Central for homeless, and other, i'd say that's a good guess.

It's not that mysterious. Their tight five is powder-puff and their fullback is a winger playing out of position All they have to do is achieve parity in the pack and their backs have the talent to take care of the rest. Under Cheika, I see their pack coming good. Not world-beaters perhaps, but eno...

It also taps out in Morse code: "This way if you are gay." I really don't think this is intended to deter submarines. It's a joke, intended to mock Russian anti-gay laws. Unless I'm being whooshed.

Rob Horne will be in the starting XV, brilliant in defence, and okay in attack. And that's not unreasonable.

Perhaps not a bad idea. Would there be protections for drinking water, or would 'consumers' compete directly with lawn owners?
