They play it on the ground more this season, so I'm going with 3.

Harbucks would be better. Collect underpants, ?, profit.

I went to the equivalent game last year. Bit of edge to it. And more so now I reckon after the play-off. I'll be there. Game of the season.

That junction is lethal. It needs a pedestrian crossing.

No 36! Bah.

Ah thanks. It would be a real shame if the complaint was upheld. Too few live venues round here.

Eh? I can't see anything 'disturbing'

I'll be at Hoopers, if I can get a pass out. Twelvetrees must be in. Foden humbled Brown recently. I'd go Corbs, Hartley, cole Lawes (if fit), Palmer Robshaw, Wood, Morgan Backs, who cares. Games won in the forwards.

'munching hummus' shurely?

Reminds me of the Half Man Half Biscuit line; 'I ring up Dial-A-Pizza I ring up Dial-A-Pizza I ring up Dial-A-Pizza And say that?s not how I would spell ?Hawaiian?' On inspection, and disappointingly, Papa John's get the spelling right on their menu.

I think you missed everything.

Steven For real?

I remember Mogg, Way and Schenker. Lights Out in London. Marvellous.

This thread has moved from a discussion of the big themes Klein discusses to ephemera, pedantry and spite. Good show in my view. I've got a lot richer since the 70s if that helps. Although my football team was far better in that decade. As was music. And the Summers were hotter. food was rubbish though. Apart from Curly Wurlys which seemed bigger.

Geoff.b Best first post ever!

12 years is the minimum tariff, but I think the Judge has discretion to go higher. I gather from the news that he can't bring race as an aggravating factor into his consideration because the law at the time didn't allow thiasinine the way it does now.

Yep. Them pesky facts keep getting in the way.

United Fruit in Guatemala is an interesting example of Klein's thesis. But this kind of reductionism to explain Iraq and Israel/Palestine and the Falklands is absurd. As Historians and students of political economy we must approach what we find around us with an open mind and not bring our pre-cooked dogma to the process of understanding. The 'all about oil' 'analysis' for instance is an abnegation of intellectual curiosity and honesty. Chomsky is the biggest sinner in this regard. I loathe the man, with his intellectual crookedness and flaccidity. Anyhow, it's good to discuss these big themes in these buttoned up and wizened times. So good luck to writers such as Klein and her advocates. It's just I think what they say is cr@p! And responding to Hugo: damn straight. China's economic imperialism in Africa is grimly fascinating too.

One of my favourite American commentators is Jonathan Chait, who is on the left but provides a thorough dismantling of Klein's thesis here: http://www.tnr.com/article/books/dead-left?page=0,3

LadyD I bet you ?1000 the US will not have invaded Iran by this time next year.

I think i saw Kebab Discard at North London Poly in the early eighties.

Cheese vouchers from Neal's yard.

kelly never won the World championship, won a quarter of the stage wins Cavendish has already racked up and was a doper.

EU parasites I'll not allow. It's public sector parasites. Can you use EUSSR?

Are you serious!? He's the greatest sprinter road racing has ever had. He's the world champion. And he's knocked up his ex page 3 model girlfriend. Golf's not really a sport. You can be fat and win the Open.
