[lets all have a disco]

Big bri had a piss didn't wash his hands then mauled thaksin
Haha bet he loved it.

Was front page headline in the Thai press three days ago that he was going to the game. They are still utterly obsessed with him here. His side are back in power again these days, they win every election then the "elite" find a way to get rid of them again (army coup, judicial coup, whatever) they are trying again now already.

Wonder where he's holed up now. Think Abu Dhabi would be the right place actually. It is a retirement
home for former despots.

Despot? He was a democratically elected leader who was removed by the army because he was attempting to free the majority from opression and poverty. How does that equate to a despot please?

Sorry, I am not as familiar with politics as I should be. Guess I read to much anti-Thaksin reports when he was our owner. Really I have nothing against the guy. Honest.

He had lots of criminals executed. What sort of democratic country will kill lots of its own residents?

He also started a number of wars on behalf of major companies to gain control of oil.

Oh, hang on, I've mixed him up with Bush again.

hahaha quite, whereas Thaksin had no wars (except on drugs) and executions actually stopped completely while he was in power...

Difficult for you to know much of the world outside the USA I guess, in fact you get points just for knowing Abu Dhabi exists...

Yeah. I even sometimes read English newspapers. But I don't have much time since I am too busy gassing up my SUV or dismembering corpses of Afghan villagers. In my spare time I also work towards earning enough money to further my poor
secondary American education. And that's if I can make it past McDonald's or Burger King, without stuffing my face.

Get bent. Dickweed.

Don't get me started on the things you do to my language, you wouldn't like it...

You noticed that. I used those Americanisms especially for you. I love it when the English get uptight about how we
use their language.

Dare I mention the evil S- word to describe your beloved game.

This is what I love. Me being classified as just another dumb Yank. It doesn't matter how much Keats, Coleridge, Lord Byron, Shelley or Shakespeare I have read. I will never be uptight enough or stiff-upper-lipped enough for those from Albion. Nothing short of T.S. Eliot is enough for me to be on the same intellectual page as you. Maybe I should just take that copy of Ulysses I have and knock on the door of the nearest Irish pub. This is why I gave up on trying to appease the 'all knowing' smugness. Once born in the land of drive-ins and waffle houses, always born in the land of drive-ins and waffle houses. And by the way, I'd take Hart Crane over Shakespeare any day.

I always have a chuckle about the "S" word usage.

In England there was football. Ithad no national set of rules but usually/often it allowed some form of ball handling. Rules were often set by the colleges. As a dribbling game became popular it was necessary to discriminate between the two. It was the pracyice of the English upper middle classes to shorten words and add "ER" on the end....The rules of the form of football played to the rules adopted by the Rugby School was shortened and with the "ER" on the end...it became RUGGER>
Association Football took on the name soccer in the same way.

As soccer or the dribbling code gained power it became the generic football in England. The Americans simply took the word that was a popular term already used in England SOCCER IS NOT AN AMERICANISM.
