Jack

01. What is your favorite word? Football or Basketball ;D 02. What is your least favorite word? I don't like the word cunt. Not sure if that'll get through the filter... 03. What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally? Everything. Mainly sport and certain people. 04. What turns you off? People who're like, closed books that don't talk at all about anything. 05. What is your favorite curse word? Damn, if that counts. I really don't like cursing. 06. What sound or noise do you love? I love the noise when the ball lashes the net in basketball, or when you connect to the ball perfectly with your foot in football. 07. What sound or noise do you hate? Children screaming. Dance music. 08. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt? I don't have a profession, but I'd LOVE to be a pro basketballer or footballer more than anything in the world. 09. What profession would you not like to do? Cleaning? Office work? 10. If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates? "Hey Jack, thanks for believing. This is my phone number, if you need anything. Basketball courts this way, you'll find your family there."

And then scoring twice in the last 10 minutes to get the 3 points any way. Haha. I only saw the last goal, though. Hleb's. Good goal, apparently Lehmann made an absolute howler for Fulham's goal.

Struggling?

Yeah, he's a cheater like.

Minor Thing - Red Hot Chili Peppers ;D

it was never a free kick though, the one Gerrard got. Looked like he conned the ref out of it, to me.

Bolton 1 - 3 Newcastle Derby 2 - 2 Portsmouth

Sunderland 1 - 0 Spurs Chopra 89 As a Newcastle fan, that's odd. I don't like Sunderland winning ever, but they did us a favour by beating Spurs, who're expected to finish just ahead of us. And Chopra's a Geordie and Newcastle fan, so I want to see him suceed enough to be able to stay in the Premiership next season when Sunderland get relegated.

What would happen in the rain?

Malouda is amazing. And Newcastle are on the up. 5th place, hopefully.

I don't drink, but if I'm in Newcastle in early September you gotta tell me where you'll be so I can walk into you on the street. ;o

I busted my ankle. There's a thread about it on one of the top 3 pages of the Lounge.

Allllllllllmost. I can for like, a minute. The stairs is the best. I should record myself trying to go down the stairs. If I was standing at the bottom looking up, I'd laugh at myself. I end up giving up half way through and just sitting down and sliding down. ;(

I can stand on my feet :D

I'm suprised it's so close. Sweet ALL the time.

Alan Smith scored on his debut Jose Enrique signs Albert Luque seems to have a groin injury, and Owen's still unfit.

"Simple Living" [Verse One] I'm like nine minutes away from finishing my nine hour shift and wishin I was gone nine hours ago Cause nine hours wasted, tossin back of this chicken I coulda written nine verses just in time for the show Slacker mindstate livin on time that's borrowed My motto's I'll stop procrastinatin tomorrow I took the sorrow from the windchimes, left happiness lonesome And strung up sarcasm to make the melody wholesome From my lungs to my feet, I'm breathin everything I speak And now they chargin for oxygen and the bill's due next week I'll be a day late and a buck short, story of my life I wish my pay rate was much more, duckin swords in the rat race I didn't apply for runnin towards something that's fake And thinkin, why for? They shuttin doors right in my face And sittin high horse is a car and a dope place Somethin to die for, this is my war, so [Chorus] Now I'm schemin on plots to make my pockets swell Simple livin is a bitch but damn, I do it well Some are fortunate to make it and, some of 'em fail Some locomotives push through and some of 'em get derailed Schemin on plots - HEY, HEY Simple livin is a bitch - HEY, HEY Some are fortunate to make it - HEY, HEY Some locomotors push through - HEY, HEY [Verse Two] I lead a crocodile mile lifestyle, I run and slide But when it's time to collide with the bump, I always bail Cause I'm not ready for that dive or that silly nine to five Solidified career option, a hop skip and a leap away from rock star, and not too far away from fillin pop's shoes The idyllic hard workin type of calloused hands Complete with wife, kids, dog, house, and picket fence, that's nonsense I'm convinced I'm built for better things And won't settle for the empty smile that cheddar brings It seems like I'm workin hard simply cause it's what they say I have to do You graduate and then you either get a job, or you go to school 12 years wasn't enough? That's more than half of my life spent tryin to make the world accept me Plus I've got the papers saying that I made it through Now I'm working 2 jobs, 3 with music and you don't respect me? Fuck it I'll retire now, you'll work until you're 62, and [Chorus]

Nope. :D

To grow old and get an oppertunity to earn enough money to raise a family. Srsly. ;o

I liked Ren's version better. ;(

The pictures, webcams, mugshots etc etc etc thread wouldn't know what hit it.

I was once Kelsen. But people were calling me Jack, my first name any way, and there was no-one called Jack. So I figured I'd change it.

Like, really. They said it's a significant sprain. It's like, it could be much much worse, but it could also be much much better. It's the very start of our summer here in England, and I had plans. I coach a football team and I play basketball a lot. It was all starting today. I had like, 2 months of football every day lined up. So training this morning I jumped for a header and went down on it. Just like that. Now I'm sitting on the sofa for the next 2 days, and then for 2 weeks I'm just trying to walk. And then I gotta wait around till I can run up and down the stairs painfree before I can play again. The doctors said that should take 6 to 8 weeks. That's like, 2 months, that's like, my summer. I've been looking forward to this summer for that reason. I didn't get much of a chance to play football the past 8 months cause of the weather, so I planned the summer out. I had all my footballers knowing we were gonna play 10am Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. Now, I was in the hospital and I saw a bunch of things. I saw a bunch of people in much more pain than I was. This isn't a plea for sympathy. I'm just frustrated and I know I've pissed off at least 3 of my friends just complaining about this. I know it could have been a lot worse but why did it have to happen any way? The one thing I've been looking forward to might have been taken from me by what? I landed wrong when I jumped? I would have been a bit less bothered by this if it'd been something a bit more dignifying. I got beaten by some soft grass. Some soft grass stopped my summer. I'm not bitter. I just need somewhere to complain for a little bit until I realise that complaining won't make it better. I'm sure there's a whole bunch of you who've had worse, but if I can pardon myself for being a little bit selfish right now. This was important to me and unless I heal quicker than expected, I'm likely to spend a lot more of my summer on this forum and this sofa than I'd like. Hah, it's not like there's any better conversations going on in the Lounge right now :P I just read it back, I wrote it before I started watching Rush Hour. What a film. Cheered my emo self up a lil bit. :P

I might have broken my foot. Baaaaad day.

It's rubbish how things like that always happen at the same time.
