You bet I am!  The joy I get from my team winning is one of the deep mysteries of life.  

I listened to the game here on 2BL - unfortunately I can't get vision in China.  It is one of the few things that you can't get illegally in China!  

Good luck Manly tomorrow - hey, if Canberra can beat the Dragons, surely Manly can!?  GO_MANLY!

I suddenly understand Go_Manly's username. Now I know what enlightenment feels like.

I see you went to Australia recently Simon (right?) - did you go to an NRL game?

And if Manly can win, the Tigers are out. But somehow, I don't think that is going to happen.

Just wondering what your previous best-guess at the meaning of my name was?

Your username puzzled me also - I thought 'manly' was too obviously macho. I also thought your icon was the insignia of a biking gang - maybe some local Harley owner's club but I just googled it

Hm, I've never ridden a motorbike, and no-one would ever describe me as macho.

BTW - I see you have married in the last week. I think I'll change my name too.

Yeah, I did pop off to Oz recently. I was also in Chicago for half a year, some time ago. They gave me a free baseball ticket to see the … Red Sox? I sold it and made a descent profit. I'm profoundly uninterested in sports, I'm afraid.

Contagious indeed. But who then is truly patient zero I have to ask. Tilting at windmills now are we? Never boring as one flys over this cuckoo's nest.

Simon - I am also profoundly uninterested in sport, we have that in common. (For example, for the 2000 Olympics in Sydney my family got in a ute and fled to the outback for a whole month). I don't think of rugby league as sport - it is more important than that. It is a complete universe of its own running parallel to the boring one we live and work in.

I dispute the implication you have drawn that motorcycle riders are macho - we are in fact a meek and reflective tribe with a love of all the arts. Riding a bike on the open road puts me in a meditative state.

武术是一种艺术,未必运动,对吧?

。。你指的是不是“没有治疗”或者“没救”?

诶,听说你遐思护士米尔德里棘齿【哈哈,很适切的名字】,对吧?

对,人人都知道我是一位游侠叫做“堂吉诃德”。你要成为我的新死党,对吧?

好吧。。嗯。。我命名你。。以后你叫做Rancho。。真适合你

You're about half right. I used to ride a 750, so that disproves your theory !

No dear, I'm still single. Hows about we hook up .... Mr & Mrs Gusset-Bigot / Bigot-Gusset

Yeh, I think I see what you mean. But I still like my theory that bike riders are sensitive flowers. My wife rides a 650 and she is a real girl. :)

St George-Illawarra 28 - Sea Eagles 0.  Ouch.  That duck egg must hurt.  Sorry Go_Manly.

I don't see anyone with that name around here.
