OT - Congrats to the U.S. Rugby team
16 years without a victory in the Rugby World Cup and they cracked it
tonight. 39-26 over Japan. Well done and may there be more in the future. (this from someone who doesn't like rugby - the next inovation in rugby will be a handle on the ball so it's easier to carry when it gets too slippery for the poor widdle players to hold - but I like and admire persistance). -- Alan Erskine alanterskine(at)hotmail.com Due to Optusnet's failure to deal with the current virus SPAM attack, respond to alanterskine(at)hotmail.com |

made the sensational claim that: Rugby? Is that some sort of sport? Yeah, it's like soccer only not wussy. -- This is a siggy | To E-mail, do note | This space is for rent It's properly formatted | who you mean to reply-to | Inquire within if you No person, none, care | and it will reach me | Would like your ad here |

It's kinda like American "foot"ball, but without the pussy helmets and padding and sissy chat sessions (what do they talk about? how they broke a nail? their mascara's all smeared?), actually requiring participants to run for much of the duration of the game. And when they have an event with "World" in the title, teams from more than one nation turn up. It is also invariably commentated on by announcers who make bellowing bulls trampling runners at Pamplona sound like the Vienna Boys Choir. For some people, it constitutes entertainment. Go figure. ;-) David -- per aspera ad astra |
