Drivers who complain about cyclists on the road.

Turning up at the Vic in Petone to watch the League tonight to find that they have the cricket on... why we didn't just go the Four Kings in the first place is ummm...??

This, although I know some cyclists dont help themselves - the responsible few of us get rather annoyed with that!

The defender who shagged around so much with the ball he gifted Waitak a goal yesterday. WTF was he thinking of??
 
The decision to play a lone striker 5 feet tall against two 6'4" defenders and then getting his team to spend most of the game pumping high balls to him instead of passing along the ground.

Responses to my posts about cyclists that differ from my own. There is no discussion. I am right.


(Except, maybe,  in the instance where that cyclist and I had that "discussion" which I won but he nearly got run over by that bus that neither of us saw but if he hadn't thrown the punch and been all off balance so that when I pushed him in front of the bus it wouldn't have had to stop...but just as well it did..)

GREED!!!

US President Barack Obama has expressed anger at $165m (�116m) bonuses pledged to executives of bailed-out insurer AIG, calling the payments "an outrage".

"It's hard to understand how derivative traders at AIG warranted any bonuses, much less $165m in extra pay," he said.

I'm sure there are plenty of road in Wellington you don't use as well.  Perhap we should have a toll booth on each road.

People who put in scything two-footers in pre season friendlies. Then have the nerve to turn around and say they did nothing wrong.

So who do you think pays to maintain the other roads in Dorkland?

You are one brave man to state on a public forum that women piss you off. 
Women do not like being told things like that! Now if you'll excuse me i'm going to duck for cover before things start flying!
