Happy birthday Percy! And if I don't post tomorrow, then an early happy birthday to Straggler, as well.

Re: Percy and Straggler
Happy Birthday my friend!
Hope you celebrate in true English fashion: nasty warm beers, drunken Hooligan songs about Manchester United - Go Red Devils! - and kill the hangover with a hardy bake beans, sausage, bacon, black pudding and fried bread breakfast. Oh yeah, then throw up!
Cheers, Straggler!!!
PS. I had to do some research on a typical English breakfast - hope I was close.

No, not really. It's a typcal ENGLISH breakfast. But not a universal European one (not saying it's a bad breakfast, I quite enjoy them myself sometimes, just that it's not universally european.). Warm beers aren't either, by the way (they're served chilled in my country at least, also in Belgium an Germany). In fact most of your claims are just English. We in europe tend to be different per country.

I hunt for the truth

Hi Huntard,

As the ignorant American that I am , I equate the whole thing to the UK - more specifically, the English.
When I say Euro I mean the Uk, why, 'cause I'm American.
But since you, being from europe, have called me on my ignorance, I will change it.
Btw, way to nit-pick a birthday post, dick.

Re: Percy and Straggler
Happy Birthday my friend!
Woohoo!! How beered up am I? Cheers!!
Hope you celebrate in true English fashion: nasty warm beers,
I am in a minority on the warm beer front. Even in England. But frankly cold and fizzy or warm, flat and uniquely tasty I am pretty easy with regard to the full range of that which can be united under the banner of the term "beer". Tonight it has been a vast selection of blonde and fruit beers in a central London bierodrome. Outrageously strong. And ranging from ambrosian nectar to gag inducing sickly nastiness.
drunken Hooligan songs about Manchester United - Go Red Devils!
AAAAaaaaaRRRggggHHHHHHH!!!!!! Nooooooooooooo!!!
You do know that ManU (as they are colloquially known) are pretty much nationally hated? Exactly because even ignorant yanks (such as yourself ) consider them synonomous with real football.
and kill the hangover with a hardy bake beans, sausage, bacon, black pudding and fried bread breakfast.
In truth this could yet happen.......
Oh yeah, then throw up!

This sounds like beer poetry.

First of all, I'm Latino, cojones! So I know my football!
A team with Ronaldo, Rooney and Neville is a dominating team - and they almost got Tevez which would have really made you hate them even more.
Btw, didn't they just win some championship...? I thought I saw that somewhere.
But you are right, however, I don't consider Euro football real football, what with all of our latin players on your teams - and of course the World Cup dominators Brazil and next year, Argentina, being the mark for true soccer playing.

Indeed you do.
I stand refuted. It is plain and obvious for all to see. I will now skulk off to nurse my hangover and hang my head in shame.
PS My missus is Argentinian so my little boy is gonna have to decide at the next world cup which way he is going to hang his boots - Latin American maestros or pie munching beer o'holics.
No contest.
Be happy.

Re: Percy and Straggler
Somehow missed this, thanks for the birthday wishes! I share the same birthday as my mother, and since she was visiting last weekend we celebrated then. I completely forgot when the actual day arrived.

Agentina has some of the most beautiful women, in my opinion. Congrats on scoring that!
As for your son, it all depends - if he wants to be on the winning side or the losing side - I'll leave it at that.
Hope you had a good B-Day and nursed that hangover.

Ah waddyu know you "paranoid schizophrenic comic-idle maniac with conspiratorial tendancies"? Huh?
Enough!! I'll leave you in peace. Suffice to say my birthday celebrations were "drunken". The rest is just gossip
