NZF for obvious reasons. WTF goes on in their offices? Special lessons on how to screw up? What areas of New Zealand can you go so you don't have any cellular or Internet access?

there are a million places. You only need to get off a main road

The point is how do the not have systems in place so that someone else takes care of it when he or she is not there. Even an out of office reply to let the sender know they need to send it to someone else

There are a few. Remote areas of the Far North and East Coast for example.

So I'm using Pandora playing a number of stations on shuffle.  

I decide I want to add an artist to one station so click on that station and it starts playing a cover from the artist I was about to add by the primary artist for that station that I did not know had ever been recorded.

Co-incidence.

So the Adam Johnson thing where he convicted for the thing with the kid. I hope he gets more than a right kicking in prison cause that shark deserves more than a kicking (and I'm not looking for a moralising debate on kids that have underage sex with their boyfriend)

The other part to this is that he has a daughter and its highly likely he wont see her until she is about 12 yo. Whats he going to say to her about why he was in jail? What can he say to her when if she comes home at 15 and says she is pregnant? 

Some people are just dickheads and have nothing but shark for brains.

It's a thrash metal band with Japanese chicks - hardly revolutionary.

They were being discussed somewhere else on here last year but I can't find where.

That's actually quite an old track but they are obviously being repackaged for the US.

I dont smoke. I would like to know the percentages of those that do. One being for pleasure and one being for stress relief?  I reckon it would be higher for those whom smoke for stress relief.

Personally it was stress relief that started me, and then not smoking caused me a lot of stress so while I was doing it for "pleasure" it was very unpleasurable for me to not smoke.

Fortunately I quite a few days before the new announcements.  Today is day 10.  Day 2 and 3 was the worse but I'm still considerably more stressed than when I smoked.

Just have to keep dealing with said stress untill not smoking is the normal again.  getting there...slowly.

Ernie resigning. Sure there were tactical deficiencies and some weird subsitutions but what he did and achieved off the field for the Phoenix is nothing short of a miracle considering budget restraints etc. Thanks Ernie, thanks for all you have done. I reckon all you needed was an assistant with some tactical nouse and a plan A,B, C and D for those moments when things were not working out right.

I think Ernie was a bloody exellent coach. If the FFA gave him an even playing field he would still be going I reckon.

At least Ernie knows we are on the rough end from his own experiences. Not that the FFA will ever admit to it.

I played in a match in Eastbourne many years ago, goalkeeper punted the ball and it disappeared back over his head for a corner. Very nearly a very bizzare og
