Oh no, FK, as if that's of any interest at all to people who now live in Canada and who loathe all things British, especially the 'soccer' teams.

And, though bedecked in mourning, I could ask.. who or what are the Flames and why do they lose everything? Always?

I have no interest in Footie at all, however...i live in a Chelski fortress...:rofl:

Never heard of the Flames:o...maybe they need to change their name to something less flamboyant:rofl:

Still they made it further than The (*******) Flames:thumbdown:

If 'Calamari' is not given another contract there will be trouble, trouble I tell you.


oh and if anybody knows a good hitman I would like to take out contracts on two (minimum) defencemen and a centre

It's not just a case of offering Calamari (Cammalleri) a new contract, he's an unrestricted free agent so if the Flames want to keep him they are going to have to offer him more than the highest bidder. I'm not sure (a) the Flames can afford him and (b) he wants to stay in Calgary anyway.

I know a number of good Hitmen but not in the manner to which you allude. :p

You could always send the losers to Toronto. They'd fit right into the Maple Leafs roster.

No. no... the all-time-favourite has to be: "Gotta move to Canada and get out of the UK because of all the immigrants" (because of course immigrants are only those other people who move...)

I'm an old Cowboy wannabe who runs my own business. How do I make my business work when I spend all my time on a website flirting with ladies - who, let's be honest - wouldn't poke me with a stick if they met me in real life.

I remember asking


wait for it


"Is there a pair of shoes that I can wear in the winter to walk to work and still wear at work" :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

What a retard

My response to that question would be "yes if you can stomach wearing slip ons in 2ft of snow in minus 30, or snow boots inside a nice heated office" :o

Re: Can someone post a dumb question........
 
I know I have asked some dumb ones...however I don't think my posts regarding my past problems based around my house etc were dumb (not to me anyway).

No idea why BC feels the need to try and belittle me because of them.
