I wish it was funny to me, Kalah, but I see it everyday. 8|
I guess to outsiders of the U.S. it's hysterical with good reason. :)

Yeah, sorry, I guess it's easier to laugh at Americans in general if you're not one yourself. ;)

I'm watching snooker, me. Final in the UK champ, Higgins v Ding. :)

I wasn't holding a defensive posture towards my statement, btw. You'd be amazed how many ignorant people are around here. Smart people are the exception. :D

I'm not to bad at pool. I usually play 5 bucks a game. Lose the first few, so my opponent bets higher. Only way to play.

I totally rule the wine lottery at work. Meaning I'm the one organizing it. My introduction of the goods every week, along with the initiative of actually starting it up, makes me quite the popular bloke 'round 'ere. :D

This week I've saved up the surplus from every other week and gone completely bonkers; usually we only have a bottle or two of wine - this week I've bought an excellent cognac, a small Baileys and a bottle of Argentinian red. :oex:

It snowed here today. May go outside, drink some warm homemade brandy at a friends house and go innertubing down a hill out in the woods.

Big tests for my pupils the next two days, and they're getting anxious. They know I'm online a lot, so they're sending me questions. Keep coming in; four of them just the last half hour. And it's 7 p.m. :D
