I live in a Canadian city which is culturally diverse, and I appreciate that fact. However when I apply to become a Canadian resident I have to have an extensive knowledge of one or the other of...
Conspiracy theory time.
Do any NSC'ers remember Oliver North and the US backed Contra's against Daniel Ortega in the 80's. Some of you might not even be old enough.
However one person on this very board has been backing Ortega's own Sandinista Front party from the very beginning, by...
I've just got into the office and been trawling through all of the "Albion Player" thread titles and am pissing myself with laughter at the inventiveness of NSC.
Special mention to the following thread titles.

Take one in the leg [Think about your baby]
Take one in the side [Think about your girl]
Take one in the head [Think about your mother]
Take one in the heart [It's the end of the world]
So blow me a kiss cuz I'm black
Blow me a kiss cuz I'm gay
Blow me a kiss cuz I'm shakin'
Say goodnight then...
We're spinning round on this ball of hate
There's no parole, there's no great escape
We're sentenced here until the end of days
And then my brother there's a price to pay
We're only human, we were born to die
Without the benefit of reason why

I bet ya never thought
That it would never turn out like this
Mama's little girl

Now the sun don't shine
The words don't ryhme
You're out of time
You've been beaten down
Kicked around on the ground
But you took it...
The last that ever she saw him, carried away by a moonlight shadow,
He passed on worried and warning, carried away by a moonlight shadow,
Lost in a riddle that Saturday night, far away on the other side,
he was caught in the middle of a desperate fight, and she couldn't find how to push through...
take all your overgrown infants away somewhere
and build them a home a little place of their own
the fletcher memorial
home for incurable tyrants and kings
and they can appear to themselves every day
on closed circuit t.v.
to make sure they're still real

Ooooh you cannot reach me now
Ooooh no matter how you try
Goodbye cruel world it's over
Walk on by
Sitting in a bunker here behind my wall
Waiting for the worms to come
In perfect isolation here behind my wall
Waiting for the worms to come
Waiting to cut out the deadwood
Waiting to...
Muslim Mothers
Two Muslim mothers are sitting in the cafe chatting over a pint of goat's milk.
The older of the moms pulls out her bag and starts flipping through pictures and reminiscing.
"This is my oldest son, Mohamed. He would be 24 now."
The other mom replies, "I remember him as a...

Interesting article.
The times that I've returned back to the UK to visit, I have noticed that womens arses are getting bigger as they try and fit them into jeans that are way too small, and to be quite honest it's not a pretty site...
My post count was up in the 3300 range a couple of days ago. Now it's in the 2900 range.
Conspiracy theorists would suggest that I post too much in the iTunes thread and I deserve what I get.
If so, I want equal treatment for my fellow ex-pat here in Canada, one Mr Juan Albion and the Word...
