That is a horribly written article.
But I do dig the apparently un-ironic use of the term invading. For those who don't know - which I presume is most of you - Humboldt County, California is an area in which growing pot is legal, and know for the dank strands produced as a result of the open communication which is possible between growers. I can only assume there is some link there.

It's like some kind of Doctor Who episode.
I'm a bit scared.

You know how I'd deal with the endemic "Squid Menace"? - deadly combination of garlic and lemon…i really don't care if its main attacking moves are "beaching itself" and "maybe still squirt ink", I've got money on me being the Rocky and the squid being the Tommy Gunn in this instance (minus the AIDS an shit)…
But this tsunami fish "correlation" has gone too far and gives me the shits. I can only surmise that there is some retarded 14yo dedicated to capatilising on any topical current events, purely so they can be the name at the bottom of the FWD: list….check [url=http://www.snopes.com/photos/tsunami/creature.asp]here[/url] for the sobering reality…c'mon fellas - I even posted one of these piccies ON THIS VERY SITE around 2 months ago, remember, Badger Without Skin ring any bells?…

How disingenuous!
And on the internet! Home of well-researched fact!
Pretty sad, really, that people resort to lies (and fairly boring ones at that) to try to get attention.
Only one step from spending all day photoshopping J-lo's face into a porno pic. SAAAAAAD!!!
As to the squid, BRING 'EM ON!!!! I'd imagine they're delicious.
Giovanni says:
In actual news, I am apparently referred to as a "Lefty ratbag" in today's West. In the igeneration piece by Gareth Parker.
Gareth still owes my an apology for shitting on my August 2002 article that predicted Iraq would turn in to a quagmire and argued that there was no evidence of WMDs in Iraq.
Selah!
ms lee says:
You should know, Dave. I saw that pic of poor J-Lo in the trash…
Robert says:
Couldn't see Gareth's article, Jeeves.
Giovanni says:
maybe it's in the today liftout, or something
or it doesn't exist
Robert says:
Nah, found it. Disappointingly superficial.
Giovanni says:
It's Gareth Parker.
In The West.
You aren't really disapointed are you?
Blazin Billy Zabka says:
Yes that was quite amusing, although KL and I are pretty sure it read "lefty nutjob Giovanni Torre" - from the tone of the article, I think that was your apology, backhanded or otherwise…
didn't mention your squid-connection either…
BTW just got out Dodgeball last nite on DVD (what I was waiting for, me no like payee $25 for Vince "Phone It In" Vaughan), and the best bit is the "Directors Commentary" which has Vaughan, Stiller and the Director eating chips, swearing, going off at each other, being read the "Commentary Guidelines" by the "studio guys"…full piss-take on the "Commentary" genre…
but for the *real* dorks, (who watch too many wrasslin DVDs) you can actually find the REAL (sensible) "Commentary" when you right-click twice on the "Alternate Ending" heading - and f–k me the Alternate Ending is pretty amusing!!!
To re-iterate, waiting for DVD *IS* the way forward!…

Anyway, on the subject, who thinks that Woolmer et al at the PCB should go with this one day line up:
Salman Butt
Kamran Akmal
Younis Khan
Inzamam-Ul-Huq
Yousuf Youhana
Shahid Afridi
Shoaib Malik
Abdul Razzaq
Mohammad Sami
Rana whatsisname
Danish Kaneria
?
They were nuts to send 'the Danish' home.
fancy dave says:
Fuck, I didn't realise they sent him home! What a bunch of spazzies!
Mayhap they're anti-Christian? Or just anti-wicket-taking?
Smacks of Brad 'Tonguemeister' Hogg getting dropped after a 5-wicket MOTM performance. Say whaaa?
Yes, but that's a much better looking line-up than what they've been playing. I might swap Youhana and Inzi around, just in case they lose early wickets. Or open with Afridi if it's a good track, but they seem to have lost sight of that tactic.
Giovanni says:
The Danish is a Hindu, I think, or maybe a Buddhist. Youhana is the Christian - first ever to captain the team too.
It's pretty stupid. Tonguemeister is the man. He fields like Jonty and bats like… well, someone who can bat better than Shane Warne.
Is Sami injured? He was very unlucky to not get more wickets in the tests. (Like when he had Clarke plumb three times in two overs and he wasn't given.) Also, I watched him make 20-odd at the WACA when everyone other than Shoaib Ahktar shat themselves and he looked very disciplined and has a tight defensive technique.
If Saqlain Mushtaq was fit this would be a much better side. He's 28, he's taken 288 at 21.78 and has an economy rate of 4.29 which, given the way one dayers have been played for the last ten years, is brilliant.
Oh well.
KL says:
Sami is injured. Which is a bummer. I too am incredulous as to why Danish went home. The bloke is good value.
The Aussie team is a bit of a mystery as well. Suffice to say if they decide to play a spinner, then Hogg is in. If they are unsure he gets dropped and they rely on Lehmann and Symonds for some slowies.
Speaking of Symonds, while it was raining they showed that incredible century he smashed in the World Cup. I hope the bloke gets back into form, because 5 ducks isn't good in anyone's book.
I wonder how long they will keep Michael Clarke on the yo-yo before they realise that he needs a consistent spot.
I think they have to let Lehmann go from the one day team. I can't believe that Bevan got put out to pasture when old Shrek is still humping his fat arse around the field.
killer says:
Next time you see Hogg get interviewed, try playing a little game called Hogg 2-Up (you can probably think of a better name than that but.. y'know)… Hogg will always start his answer with a "Yeah, Nah", a "Nah, Nah" or a "Yeah, Yeah", the object of the game is to call which combination you think he will use.
If anyone has any videos of Brad Hogg getting interviewed (Fancy? Geeves? KL?) youse show bring them out tomorrow.. you can't get anymore dinkum than Hogg 2-Up on Australia Day.
Giovanni says:
That's hot.
You are some kind of genie-arse Killer.
