Can't get it here in Tennessee either. :( Will have to rely on pats (or whatever the opposite of ex-pats is?) for updates.

Actually, what usually happens is that you have to claim your bags and take them through customs yourself. Right after exiting customs there is usually an agent for your airline who will take them off your hands again.

If I remember right isn't this film the origin of the Ramones 'Gabba Gabba Hey'?

I see McGhee has solved the problem of where to play Virgs. According to the official site he's in the team twice!

Hey, I was there in the North Stand for that Walsall game too. Wasn't that the one where Mullery gave 'em a roasting at half-time and sent the team out early? We got 7 in a game against York around that time too, didn't we? Happy days! Nostalgia - it's a thing of the past!???

The Sensational Alex Harvey Band - every time I saw 'em "Remember boys and girls. When freedom comes around, don't piss in the water supply."

Gawd, is this thread still going. You lot are certainly more inquisitive than my class! The bullet fired straight upward would (in principle) keep going 'sideways' at the same speed it was before it was fired. So it would stay above the same place on the surface of the Earth. For the most part...

Yeah, jumping on an open top bus would be different. The air is not moving with the bus but you are, so it would exert a backward force on you that would slow you down compared to the bus. You would indeed then land further back on the bus than where you took off. But unless the bus is moving...

Double post - Sorry!!!!

OK, I just have to jump in here as I AM a physics prof. Sorry, but jumping won't help you one little bit. Since you were moving downward at the same speed as the elevator your little jump just gets superimposed on that downward plunge - its not independent of it. Even in the case that the...

Hi Steve in Oz, this is Steve in Tennessee, also listening on the radio/net.:)

YYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!' Lap of honour coming up???? Clap,clap, cheer, cheer.... A..L..B..I..O..N

Sorry chaps, but the ball does not have to be touched to someone else. They changed the rules several years ago so you can now score direct from a kick-off. (You can also score direct from a goal-kick, but not against yourself.) But I agree that 2 seconds is a nigh impossible, that means the...

I've lived in the US for 15 years and have got used to most of those you've mentioned, but they all got up my nose at first. But the one that still gets to me is the word 'winningest', as in 'The winningest coach in college basketball.' and stuff like that.

Don't panic -- too much! Turns out this is not strictly true, though there are schemes that can cost you much smaller amounts. Check out: http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/scams/mobile.asp for the inside story

Christ, you lot are making me feel old. I saw Led Zep at the DOME, complete with Christmas carol encore! Anyway, how about Bob Marley Live for a great album?

Just had to use this subject for my first post. I must truly be an oldie, judging by others memories of this momentous occasion. We beat Liverpool at Anfield the day before the Mrs. and me flew to the US to start a new job. She said it would be OK to come back for the final, if we made it. We...
