Hello. Following its roaring success on the old 606 (winner of six Luckies*) I thought I'd provide a space on 606v2 for you to post any irrelevant little things you fancy sharing.

I'll start: I've always had trouble with the line 'Love grows where my Rosemary goes.' If they'd chosen another name like Anne or Susan there'd be no problem, but rosemary's a herb so it could be 'Love goes where my rosemary grows.'

I met a couple of lesbians in Lanzarote last year. They were snorkelling for clams.

I think Munster had a few Mierenneukers in their team last week Billy

Oooh you WUM Ruby

You're on form today shrink

Washed Up Munster Off to London tomorrow night, must be excited

Nah, i am not off to London. Stuck here in Holland. Made the choice to go to New Zealand instead

By crikey I'm bored.

Do a puzzle or something...

Billy, dropping in to Sydney on the way or are you going via Brisbane?

Dropping in to sydney for 2 days mate. We can go grab a beer (schooner?)

For sure, sounds great.

I know of this great Irish pub just under the Harbour bridge. Its like a street full of pubs but i cant remember the name.

I think I know the one. On the corner... top of the Rocks opposite a gym under the bridge approach?

Yeah thats the one i think. Its one of the last pubs in the street. I think we got the train to darling harbour? and walked there.

Best go to Circular Quay from southern line (might have to change at Central), then walk up the steps called "The Nurses Walk" up to Gloucester/Cumberland St.

racist.

Miss Molly had a dolly who was p!ssed, p!ssed, p!ssed...

Was it rubber?

It was wicker, man.

Going to have to burn the 'wicker man'

Have you seen the remake of the Wicker Man? It's no good at all. In the original, you can see the terror in Edward Woodward's eyes when he sees the wicker man; in the remake, Nicolas Cage just looks mildly confused.

Yeah the Nicolas Cage one was pretty poor compared to the original.

It's almost a 'so bad it's good' film. Everything that made the original so sinister has been changed in the remake. Nicolas Cage is just so wooden in it, it's a stinker of a performance.

I do think that the girl in the Nicolas cage one is rather sexy though

That's an example of a change they made that ruined the film. In the original, Edward Woodward plays a dour, god-fearing copper and that makes his revulsion at what happens all the greater. In the remake, Nicolas Cage is some kind of playboy lothario.

What do they call that in Hollywood, Artistic Interpretation?

The whole film just didnt have the suspense of the original.

Perhaps he thought he was acting the wicker man, that's a sort of cage as well

If only someone would set him on fire in real life. Maybe then we'd see some emotion from him.

they'd burn his Face Off.

What have i read lucky, are you no longer able to post on Leinster threads?

Nicholas Cage doesn't "act". He's just Nicholas Cage in every single film he's in. Same as how John Wayne is always just John Wayne.

Is it me or is he actually doing a very bad impression of James Stuart?

He is better than that miserable looking Daniel Craig

set of 'The Greatest Story Ever Told'
John Wayne: (looking at Jesus on the cross) 'He truly was the son of god'

Director George Stevens: 'John, can you say it with more awe'

John Wayne: Awww, he truly was the son of god.

You can't mention Nicolas Cage and Jimmy Stewart in the same sentence.


Damn!

Well, ah..you see, ah...I just did that...ah.
