I love it, when I dont have cigarettes I stand near groups of smokers

[MenaceMartin]

I don't smoke, and i never will. I tried it once and absolutely HATED it, however, i don't mind being around smokers/2nd hand smoke...

[Jason]

I want a cigarette RIGHT NOW! I've been quit since January 31 of this year though, except for a few little cheats here and there... but sometimes the craving still hits me like mad.

I can whistle really loud, loud enough to scare the
crap out of people in a crowd

It used to bother me to see girls puking, not necessarily from a virus or something, but definitely after drinking too much. Watching the whole metamorphasis was unsettling. That puke face was enough to make me put down my drink and go home. It happened to me once or twice, but like a sick dog, I made my way to a field and ate some sweet Kentuck Blue and let er rip.

Now when my wife gets sick (not from drinking because she never drank), I am right there in the midst of it helping her out until its definitely over.

- Burt Lancaster is my favorite actor (and I'm only 29)
- My baby is from Germany
- I like Richard Wagner's music
- I like to study foreign languages

[coldsteal2]

I was raised on a farm,
one of my favorite chores was shouvling up chicken poop
and throwing it on a fire.

[PGblues]

I hate it when girls listen to Britney, Rihanna, etc...it always upsets me when I notice that a woman has no sense for good music. I already managed to turn my baby into a Peter Green fan

1. I cannot ride a two-wheeler bike. Never was interested, and therefore never learned.

2. My favourite actress is Ingrid Bergman, with Tippi Hedren a close second (can't be doing with all the modern posers). Now they were class females...

3. Favourite film is Casablanca (what a cast! Bogart, Bergman, Paul Henreid, Sydney Greenstreet, Peter Lorre, Conrad Veigt...)

4. When I played cricket (League cricket here in Norfolk) I went through the same maddening routine before facing every delivery. I would step back two paces, then forward two paces again to the crease; check my batting gloves were on tight; crouch down slightly flexing both knee joints, twirl the bat handle between my hands, then finally take guard. Did it religiously for years and years.

5. Another cricket anecdote (the Brits on here will understand, at least). In one league game I was cautioned by one of the umpires. Now a caution in football is fairly common, but in cricket it is practically unheard of. We were playing an important league match against a team that was running for the title with us. We batted first and posted a really good score. We got a couple of their batsmen out cheaply and then their best batsman came in. I was wicketkeeper, and when he had made only a couple, one of our bowlers sent down a beauty, he got an edge, and I took the catch easily. He didn't 'walk', as is the protocol, and we couldn't believe it when their umpire said not out (biased bastard!). At the end of the over he was at the other end, and as I passed him to take up my position he said "I swear on my life that I did not touch that delivery." Quick as a flash I said, without thinking "Well your life's not worth a ****in' carrot then!" Their umpire only heard what I said, and came over to me and told me I was being officially cautioned, and also spoke to my captain. What a tosser. Anway, we got him a couple of overs later and ended up winning the match. As I reached the pavillion coming off the field at the end of the game, their captain, who I knew very well from playing table tennis for years, asked what it was all about, so I told him about the verbal exchange. "****in' 'ell, John, we could hear the snick back here in the pavillion. He was out and should have walked immediately." We had a good laugh about it in the bar afterwards. I was never ever cautioned in all my years of playing football and rugby, but got one playing the gentleman's game of cricket...

6. I hate Banjocasters.

I am Straight Edge as some will label me. As well as Veg.
But I still respect others if they do recreational drugs or eat meat.

I will hear them down there talking softly, my mom will say ''you need to ask Becky such and such'''

and then I'll yell down '' It was such and such blah blah'' they're like.....How did you know what we were talking about?????

because I heard you...duh.

Shoot, coldsteel2. I now have images in my head of you having seizures like a mega acid trip...

I'd always thought epileptic seizures were something quite frightening. I've never heard them described this way. Interesting. You learn something new every day here at MLP.

6. I hate Banjocasters.

Cricket a gentlemens game? Not the way it's played here it isn't. We are brought up not to walk. Adam Gilchrist did though, don't know what went wrong there. Seriously though, despite it's genteel veneer, cricket can be a subtly brutal game. Bat against ball, just you and your batting partner against the opposite eleven, and nowhere to hide. I do love it though. I can't wait for this Ashes series to start next month. And what's with the First Test being played in Cardiff, and no Test at Old Trafford. What's the story John?

[slither]

I am older than I would like to be.

I have less hair than I would like.

I actually like my job.

People think I have an English accent, even though I have never been to England.

I enjoy football, cricket, motorsports and motorbikes.

My last bike got totalled by some twat in a 4WD.

As far as electrics go, I have only ever had Gibsons.

If I don't have coffee in the morning, by midday I'll have a piercing headache. It's the only coffee I have all day.

I don't smoke, and rarely drink.

I support Manchester United in the EPL, and Manly-Warringah in the Australian Rugby League.
