[The Temper Trap - Sweet Disposition]

Hoping to download some more music for the iPod - i know theres been a songs thread on here before - cant be bothered finding it 

Just wanting to know any good songs people are currently listening too - also if you could post up the artist name/song name as i cant click on youtube links in work that would be most helpful.

Ill start off with song currently loving at the minute:

The Temper Trap - Sweet Disposition

Anyone been using the new Microsoft Search Engine www.bing.com - i have started to use it a bit - like the format of it and the homepage which changes pics every day i think - better than a plain white screnn as with google

Not sure if this topic has been posted before - did a quick search and couldn't find one.

So after having this discussion with a few club mates at training the other night just wondered what most posters opinion is:

would you rather win an Senior all-ireland with your club (lets assume your club are good enough for the purpose of the question)

or

would you rather win a Senior all-ireland with your county (again lets assume you are good enough to play intercounty and your county are good enough to win and all-ireland)

For me and any of the lads i chatted to it was all-ireland with the club hands down - although the publicity/crowds, etc for intercounty would be much greater i don't think anything would compare to winning a senior all-ireland with your club mates, and i know if we ever did the rip afterwards would be as the gaa ad states.....unrivalled 

This leads on to a slightly different question - does anyone think that it would be a good idea to have club allstar awards or to have club players considered for an all-star (i.e. lets say for example a team from galway won the all-ireland club and there centre half back has been unreal in ever game, galway as a county are knocked out of the championship early and during the whole championship there have been no stand out centre half backs - would it not be an option to consider someone who has had an outstanding year for their club??

Anyone else enjoy the montages at the end of Olympics, Six Nations (was disappointed by the BBC's this year), Masters in Golf, any major sporting event really - was dossing in work there browsing youtube for one a mate emailed me for the 2008 Football Championship - its quality - in fairness RTE usually have quality montages:

Anyone else got any classics?

On the way in to work this morning got a lift with a mate and he came out with a clinking phrase (pissing rain and freezing this morning).  When i hoped into the car he says:

"Brutal morning you wouldn't put a milk bottle out in it"

Got me thinking of other great phrases Ive heard

Tipp fella i worked with in oz came out with the classic:

"thats the craic she said with one leg up above on the table" which i still use and pass off as my own 

Others i can think off - may have heard owl boys in pubs or something going over them:

"Get up them stairs and show me why i married ye"

"Drive it up she said my back is long"

Thats all i can think off at the minute - feel free to add any you can think off.

You Sir - get your Zimmer frame and hobble on outa here. 

Just wondering did anyone read the Article by Kieran Shannon in yesterdays Sunday Tribune?  It was realted to Tony Donnelly - Mickey Harte gets a lot of Credit throughout the media and rightly so but i think this Artcile showed that Tony (and indeed Fergal McCann) plays a vital role in the whole Tyrone setup and hopefully the trio can bring Tyrone to back-to-back glory!!

was just wondering was anyone at this in when in was last on over here?  is it worthwhile going to?  me and a few mates thinking bout going to it as a few of the stages are ony a few mile over the road 

Just wondered did anyone see this show last night on channel 4 - we had a discussion in our house of who was more to blame? the mother/then son/the american culture in general where evrything is supersize, etc.  IMO the mother was to blame - her son lying in his room 57 stone and she continually carries him double burgers and chips!!!!
