Est-elle la fin pour les Reds (de la Mersey - pas les vrais Reds, de Manchester)?
Presc 200 minutes pour scorer contre l'equipe tres modeste de Standard Liege/Luik.
Meme les SK Brann managed un goal contre la mighty Marseille.
Tout est perdu - sauf l'honneur.

John Terry - un vrai heros britannic
C'est bien que John Terry est capitaine du team. Quand cet honneur était announced, il a tout de suite fait part de sa pride a cette honneur et combien c' est important pour lui d'etre le leader du team.
Puis il a joué contre la Republic Cheque comme un imbécile absolu. Le team etait lucky de scramble un goal au last moment.
C'est comme cela au Royame Uni/UK. Ce qui est important est ce que vous dites. C'est beaucoup plus important de talk patriotic drivel than de gágner des matches et aller aux international Meisterschafts.

Pocketsurfer (V.1)
There doesn't seem to be any independent review of the Pocketsurfer on any blog. I've had one (actually two - see below) for 6 months.
The idea of it is that it's linked to the internet but you can't make phone calls.
Some problems:
It takes a minute to log in. Also it switches off after 5 minutes. So if you get up to make a cup of coffee, you find it's switched off and you have to log in again. (Altho' you only have to press 2 keys to do so.)
This is probably because the battery is not very good. Supposedly it lasts 4 hours fully charged but 2 hours seems more like it and it's not clear when it is fully charged. But it's no big deal to run it from the mains.
It's quite cheap to run. You get 20 hours a month free, clearly inadequate, but it's only £6 a month, which compares very favourably with my mobile phone (the dreaded Orange network), which is £5 a week. And at times the mobile is unbelievably slow.
It doesn't do sound or videos. Maps are OK at first but the more you shift the scale or direction, the more confused the maps get.
When you're on the home page, it gives you 3 "news" stories. These appear to be chosen by a Canadian-Scots bureaucrat. (HQ is in Montreal). The "news" is never about Georgia or plane crashes, it's government waffle, frequently from the pages of the Scotsman about the government of bonnie Scotland. However, type anything in and it takes you to Google's home page. One problem is, if you use Google News and want to switch to another nation, say Australia or the new India:Tamil service, it's a matter of luck to do this. Quicker to go to Google.au.
Often the page you want is difficult to read. I abandon the attempt about a 1/4 of the time. Also, if you switch from one page to the next, the screen slowly changes from the 1st page to the next. This is a bit confusing. However the display of about ten lines at a time is OK and a lot easier than a mobile. As is writing E-mails or blogs - a bit slow, but still easier. Colour is variable - simple colours are quite bright, but complicated ones tend to be dinjy.
This is the second Pocketsurfer I've had. The 1st had to be taken back to the shop (Maplin) and they send it off to be repaired/exchanged. This took about 1/2 hour because the (non) assistant appeared to have been in Britain for about 2 weeks, barely speaking English and clearly unfamiliar with our alphabet. But I got a new one after about 2 1/2 weeks.
I'm not too good with modern technology - anything after 1990 basically - but there doesn't seem to be any way of saving pages or bookmarks. However you can get onto the wondrous Net 19 times out of 20, as against less than 1/2 the time with the ghastly Orange World.
When I bought it it was £180. It's now down to £150. To me it's worth about £60-80. (kr 600-800). But I do use it every day. Perhaps I'll get the larger Acer sometime, which is a small computer with internet, currently £200.

Une curiosite de Wikipedia
Dans l'article sur l'ile de Samos en grec, on peut lire qu'en 440 BC (before chips) Pericle & Sophocle ont attacked ce petit ile pres de Turkiye et ont massacred tous les hommes.
Mais dans les autres langues, ils ont attacked sans mention de massacre.
Est-ce que mes 2 (ou 3?) lecteurs cognosc des erreurs similaires de Wikipedia? (Surtout en Vol-a-puk?)
23/8 L'article en grec sur Pericle contient le meme erreur (a la fin da 3e paragraphe). Mais c'est certainement completely wrong. Pericle a introduit la democratie sur the island, alors how to do cela si tous les hommes sont beaten to deth?

Les Georgiens sont fous
Pourqoi les Georgiens ont décidé d'attaquer l'Ossetie du Sud. Pourquoi s'imaginent-ils que les Russes wood do nada? Oui, l'ours russe est tres violent. (D'ailleurs, le nom du President Medvedev veut dire "ours" (Bjoern)). Alors, pourquoi le provoquer! L'Armée de l'Air a 8 avions & 3 hélicos. Les Russes ont 2800. Dont 260 Hind hélicos d'attac.
Heureusement que nobody a remarquei que le drapeau anglais est le drapeau de St.-Georges.
A cross gules on a field argent. Le drapeau de Georgie/Sacartveli est la meme chose, mais avec 4 petty crosses gules in the quarters.
Je vois pour la 1e fois la difference entre BBC24 & Sky News, du disgusting Rupert Murdoch. Sky vous montre des cartes facile a comprendre avec des reporters en Georgie. La beeb vous montre des interviews avec des Georgiens comme le président totally deranged et le vice-ambassadeur a Londres qui nous donnent des harangues sur l'énorme evil des Russes et comme il faut give full support a la petite Georgie so heroic. F$$$ off.

Football : Mort aux bigots
Saluez les heros de Kaunas (Latvie ou Litvanie) qui ont battu les bigots protestants de Glasgow Rangers.
Autre nouvelle de Latvie : Ventspils (D Wind spielt?) ont battu la SK Brann, avec leur massive support interlinguiste. C'est pas une surprise - Ventspils sont presc aussi fort comme Everton. Apres tout, ils ont un stade avec 3,200 places! Ce sont des GEANTS!

Pourqoi pas une femme?
Au Royaume Uni (UK) tout le monde (?) a la fievre pour remplacer le PM. Nous voulons un PM qui peut agiter un magic wand et reduire le prix de l'essence, gaz, food etc.
Mais tout le monde pense a des hommes. Sur tout les mecs that nous savons tres peu about. David "the boy David" Miliband. Alan "the Postman" Johnson. Qui n'ont jamais fait f###-all.
Pourqoi pas une femme? Parce que le Parti Labeur est le parti feministe. Le parti des femmes qui hate men like poison. Alors pouqoi pas Harriet "Harperson" Harman, qui est dans le cabinet since beaucoup plus long temps que les blokes que l'on talks about.
PS Quel luck! J'ai managed a enregistrer "la 7e selle" de la tele! "Vem e' du? - Ja e' Doeden." Classic!! Meme plus funnier que MPython & le Sanct Graal"!
