I just don't like smileys in general and tend not to use them. Personally, I think it's just insulting the readers. For example, say I was to write: I passed my driving test today That basically means: I passed my driving test today, and if you haven't worked out what emotion I'm feeling right now, I'm feeling very happy about it. Although, as far as smileys go, I don't completely mind the dead horse one.

Life of Brian- 9/10 Amazingly the first time I've seen this, but I was not disappointed, even though I seen parts of it before. The Godfather pt.II- 9/10 One of my favourite movies of all time. Gets better every time. Memento- 7/10 I think this is the third time I saw this now, and I loved it the first time, but after you get over the original narrative and the ending, it doesn't seem that good. Annie Hall- 8/10 I didn't think I'd like this film, but I did. It's unique structure and fast pacing really brings you into the film, which itself is pretty heart-warming stuff, and the witamnages to up-hold well after 30 years. Good film.

35mg Edit: I think Yep. I'm right -
This is depressing. Only ten past twelve and I'm already on the computer. Anyway, happy new year guys. Best of luck in 2007 yadda yadda yadda.

The Wind that Shakes the Barley- 9/10 A great little movie. Some pretty powerful scenes make it one of my favourite films in the last few years, for example the discussion after the cinema scene. The Proposition- 9/10 A good old masculine film. Plenty of violence, no forced romances etc. The film itself, though is great though. The story is gripping and the plot is well paced; the acting is practically flawless, and the likes of score and cinematography are excellent. Well worth checking out.

Well, I got hammered last night, so therefore I can't be fucked with anything tonight.

Well, I suppose it would be nice to move to Australia or Ireland just for the simple reason that it would be quite nice to live there. Although, if we were allowed to change our nationalaties and our family history whilst we're at it, I'd probably move to Little Italy in New York, become a gangster, then a made man, and just rake it in with the odd heist now and again, or have a small buisness 'owning' other small buisnesses. I suppose I'd change the decade I live in too if I could, such as the 50's or 60's. I heard the mafia today are pretty shit.

Sit ups and push ups every 2 or 3 days. I try to go to the gym as often as I can, which consists of 15 minutes on a treadmill, 10 minutes on a rowing machine, and weight machines for the rest of the time. Otherwise no, apart from walking my dog, usually an hour on every day I'm not in school or doing something big, 20 minutes in the field out back.

Yer ma! Actually, a dictophone and a couple of DVDs/CDs

1. Oh God, there were plenty. Firefighter, tram driver, cop etc. I think I wanted to be a lead singer in a boy band at one point as well. 2. Civil Engineer or screenplay writer for films. The former probably most likely. 3. Civil Engineering. Makes sense, really. Hopefully will be taking on a course at Cardiff or Liverpool University next year. 4. Full time student/ Unemployed 5. Uni, then possibly a job in a local engineering firm, then hopefully a job abroad.

Sure, I'll join. Can we create our own mob nicknames and back story? It probably won't affect the game, but I thought it would be an interesting idea to create a tad more authenticy.

I always thought he was dead for some time, but as he had just died now, it is still a bit sad. R.I.P. The Flintstones was cool

Live Free or Die Hard Teaser Trailer
Monopolyman replied to Happenstance's topic in General Chit Chat
Doesn't look bad actually, considering the franchise's age. Ah, but then again, it might just lose it. I'll probably go out and see it on the day of it's release, though. -
There was only really one album released this year I cared about to be honest. Bob Dylan- Modern Times

Historical (and not so historical) quotes

The serial killer episode from one or two seasons back. Not sure if it is my favourite as it's just of the first to come to my head, but it's certainly up there for having such hilarious moments, such as: Police officer: Hi there, do you mind if we have a look around your house, Mr...? Serial Killer:...God! (Well, the quote is something like that)

As far as I was aware, n/0= The imaginary number of n/0, and thats it. Or, I suppose you could say, for example, 6/0= 0 remainder 6. But yar, the whole things daft.

School of Rock, 8/10- Formulaec (sp?), but still a great little film. Very witty, and all the rock references were cool. Full Metal Jacket, 9/10- Excellant. A Kubrick film, very realistic (at least the latter half) and shows the inhumanities and dehumanisation better than any other war film I have seen, all mainly through humour, atmosphere and grittiness Once Upon a Time in the West, 9/10- I used to dislike this film, but now that I have matured a bit, I can see why it is so popular amongst western fans. Dazed and Confused, 9.5/10- Watch it especially for the soundtrack, the stoner talk and the general excitement of 70's U.S. high school life. It's not like a normal high school film, with the stereotypical jocks, cheerleaders etc., but it's more realistic and has more likely high school characters, which is why I like it so much, I suppose. Highly recommened. Arlington Road, 6/10- I don't know what to think about this film. It started off as a very good thriller, but it reached a certain point where it started to slide into eventually a silly and farfetched plot, but the ending hits you in the face, in a good way, and sort of makes up for the previous half-hour or so. I think a 6 will do.

Are halfies allowed? Well, I'm a little over half Irish. My Ma is completely Irish, grew up in Sligo; and my Dad has some Irish relatives somewhere down the line. Never been to Ireland, though. Prehaps I should visit the place, considering the Nice guys over there gave my family a nice cheque for 1000 euros

Of course were going to need nuclear defence. It's effectively the best method of defence for our country, and like Blair suggested, who knows whats going to happen in the future.
