LOL.

I bloody hope England win just so they will stop going on about 1966. It was 40 years ago and nobody except us cares, so just drop it. If they do win though it will sucik that I'm in America - there's nothing like the atmosphere in a London Pub during an England World Cup game, especially when they're winning. Instead I'm gonna have to settle for watching the game on my own at 8am with an American commentator getting all the names wrong.

And as for Rooney, there's no denying he's a good footie player, but he's also a chav and a hooligan. You just know that if he wasn't a footballer he'd be out nicking cars and robbing houses, and Steven Gerrard would be with him. I kinda hope he's not ready for the World Cup so someone else can rise into the limelight and we can all shut up about Rooney, but at the same time I have money on England so I kinda hope he is fit in time.

I hear ya man, and what really gets me is when they play their music through the shitty PSP speakers at full volume on a public train.

Anyway, this is only vaguely related to the thread, but I found a NES in my in-laws' basement today and hooked it up to play Super Mario 1. The Legend of Zelda cartridge doesn't work though

I had already figured that ESPN were going to be showing some games, but this schedule helps immensely. Thanks dude.

As for USA having a chance, I agree - before I left England I placed a bet on England winning all their group games and USA qualifying to the second round. Whether or not they'll go all the way I'm not so sure, but I think they'll definitely make the quarter finals again. They've improved a lot in the last few years, and I think football (I may as well just bite the bullet and start calling it soccer) in general has become a lot more popular in the States in recent years.

So, the World Cup starts on Friday. Who's watching, who are you supporting, etc.

I'm obviously for England, but I'll be following USA too.

No, I didn't see the VH1 thing, but I have seen Queen perform with 2 Freddie Replacements. One of them I can't remember who he was but he was pretty good. One of them was Robbie Williams and, while I must admit he has a good voice, I think he's a wanker and is nowhere near Freddie Mercury's greatness, as a performer or an artist.

But I did recently see 'We Will Rock You', a musical written by Queen and Ben Elton (who co-wrote Blackadder), and featuring all the Queen classics, and the main guy in that was an INCREDIBLE singer.

Over in another thread somebody suggested that Michael Anthony (Van Halen Bassist) should take over vocal duties and they become a 3 piece. I think that's the way to go if one of your band leaves or dies - an existing member should take over. When Ian Curtis of Joy Division died, their guitarist became the singer and New Order was born. When Peter Gabriel left Genesis, Phil Collins, formerly just the guy on drums, emerged as a vocal talent in his own right. Recruiting new singers never seems to work.

Of course, if nobody else in your band can sing, you don't really have much choice.

Oh God! ANOTHER Van Halen/ Star Wars fan?! I thought I was the only one.

Another one here.

Actually, despite the fact that it is on the ANH cover, that picture of Mark Hamill as Luke was taken after ANH and after his car accident.

Trooperman, that sounds like a great idea.

I'm a big X-Files fan and every now and again they would go out on a limb and shoot an episode in an unusual style, or have it all form the POV of one character, etc. I used to really enjoy those 'alternate' episodes, and I think this could work the same way.

Poor guy - his childhood dream never came true...

Maybe not in this job, but chances are you'll meet all new bitchy cows in a future job.

Unless you just won the lottery, in which case, can you buy me a Delorean?

Emperor: Strange, that I have not. I wonder if your feelings on this matter are clear, Lord Vader.

If you want to make Flash animations, use Flash.

EDIT: I realise that my post came across as sarcastic and cocky but it wasn't meant that way. Seriously, use Flash.
