Not a great problem really <snort>
But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.


Full of the heavens and time.

horseshoes aren't as dangerous as jarts. sharp pointy objects flying through the air. what an idea! i'd like to see the accident totals for that.

THE CHAMPION OF UNSPORTS IS HERE LADIES AND GENTLEMAN!!!


SOCK TENNIS! i was in my lock-up yesterday withy my dad and you wouldnt believe the fun you can have with a plank of wood laid across the room as a net and a balled up sock...we even had double sock overtime!

and with careful planning and thought i feel i could convert this to many other sports...sock cricket, although a sock doesnt bounce so youd have to bowl full...sock soccer...sock golf....sock us football...the possibilities are endless........
It'd take you a long time to blow up or shoot all the sheep in this country, but one diseased banana...could kill 'em all.

I didn't even know sheep ate bananas.

How about auto racing? It's competitive, it's objectively measured, but is it a sport? Is it athletic?
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

Darts... never liked it. I don't think of it as much of a sport... but there you have it.

Of course this has nothing to do with being really bad at it... :wink:
