Sorry, but it seems that some scurvily infected fellow :sick: on the Mayflower didn't bring with them the proper vocabulary. Forgive my ignorance, but could you broaden my poor English vocabulary...Quote:

Yeah, it's funny old game. All those years of rugby holding league to the ground by the throat, but give it another five years and it'll be taking over the rugby game. I agree that nowadays, it's a far better game.Quote:

And you don't describe women as catty sometimes? Still strongly in use. Ever seen catfight? All claws, screaming and biting?
there is skill in hockey... but! you should all watch a game of Gaelic or Hurling sometime...
But only if you are wearing flack jackets and steel helmets. The same goes for those attending an Irish wedding.Quote:

I didn't hear you order one?
I don't agree that growth and popularity is a sign of a good sport. I have discovered that the masses don't necessarily have the best taste. People are followers...like lemmings. Consider Reality TV...it is very popular, but that does not mean that it's good.
Oh I'm sorry sir!:D All the sports talk had me a little distracted! LOL!:lol: Here you go!:DQuote:

Quickly skib, get the rifle. Be careful, try not to hit the whiskey!

Ok then...
I get a dart from the dartboard, kneel down and throw it underhand, impaling the weasel through the throat and lifting it a few feet up in the air, twitching and pinned against the wall.
'Sorry about the mess!' I shout, as blood trickles onto the floor from its throat, all over the floor.
But luckily the bottle topples over intact, and I put it back on the bar.
We have a new dart champion!!Quote:
