That would be an enormous database. <br><br>For example, the first time we played in England, and I had to do an interview with somebody when the album Absolutely Free was out. There's a song on it called I'm losing status in the high school, and a line in the song says, "a bunch of pompom girls look down their nose at me". Well, nobody in England knew what a pompom girl was, they don't have cheerleaders there, see. And so I was confronted with the fact that it never occurred to me that outside the US they don't even have cheerleaders. [font=arial black]So how do you explain what a cheerleader is to a person who is so sophisticated that their society is evolved to the point where they don't need them ? [/font]<br><br>So there's a lot of stuff in the songs about the way things are here, and unless somebody has come here and looked at it - like you guys have - it doesn't make any sense at all...[/quote]<br>

not a big soccer fan, my hometown is a bigtime soccer town (my high school team was #1 in the country for a few weeks when i was senior).  football isn't too much fun either.  imo football stadiums were good for only 1 thing.......and we cant even do that anymore.  :(

I admit it - your team is the best.........for now, but come November, things may be different. If it comes down to NV vs Poms, I hope you guys win, but we're not out of it yet.<br><br>BTW you kiwis must have been shitting yourselves while Flatley was lining up for his conversion shot. It would have made it 2 points the difference, and the possibility of another last-second penalty win. If only.....if only.......... :'(

excuse me bernie but we shall see who is best in november in sydney. much as i love the men in black i still expet em to recieve a good hiding from the men in white - that is if the boks dont decide to literally kill mr.wilkinson in Perth - and i fully expect em dirty buggers to do just that.<br>see - i know we 3 can agree on one point - aint the boks a bunch of no hopping dirty playing mothers that you ever have seen ? once they where the biggest - now they aint so theys resort to der cheep shots. the song said it all  - i never met a nice south african...<br><br>mungo
