Could you please post your real name and address. As well could you please
post a photo of any vehicles you own highlighting the company name if they
are a company vehicle.

Could you also post a picture of your anus as it seems popeye like to go to
Canada to back channel.

Thanking you in advance

dechucka.

PS To make this on topic I will be going up to the GBR for my annual winter
dive session in a couple of weeks. Planned to dive Shellharbour last weekend
but 5 mm swells and 100km winds put paid to that. Went and watched the rugby
instead. The water is still surprisingly warm here, so my 5mm wetsuit is
more than adequate. If it gets to cold for the 5mm I stop diving stuff
looking like the Michelin man or the hassles of a dry suit ( IMO)

PPS the Canadians didn't do to well against the All Blacks

I don't know much about the different guns but based on the tv I watch
there are lots of automatic weapons out there. In fact I'm sure they're
in the majority, certainly in the handgun department. I guess my
concern would be with the more easily concealed weapons capable of
firing sustained bursts at extreme cycling rates. I think they're often
called full auto, but it seems to me that any weapon that chambers
another round automatically should probably be called an automatic. <snip>

I asked nicely. If you could supply the Usenet name/s of the person I am
meant to be asking that would make it easier

What are the water temps like?

>PPS the Canadians didn't do to well against the All Blacks

64-13 is a bit of a rout. The All Blacks used us as fodder to get
ready for the Springboks.

It's always amazed me how a small country like NZ can produce such a
powerhouse in rugby.  But then, we're a small country population-wise
and we're still the biggest producers of hockey players.  I guess it's
all about yer passions.

I miss Aussie Rules -- now that's one wild game.

about 20 degrees Celsius surface temp. Has been warmer though. 15 degrees I
don't go diving. I know I am not as butch as some on this ng but I dive for
pleasure not to prove I am macho butch

Well rugby union is the New Zealanders national sport so while they are a
small nation they have a great number of players. I suppose it is a bit like
Canada in that respect with a high % of kids playing ice hockey. Personally
I don't like the game much even after being taken to a couple of the
Whatever Cup ( Stanly?) games by relatives.

> I miss Aussie Rules -- now that's one wild game.

I'm a rugby union man living in NSWs where Aussie rules is not huge but
growing. My brother is a Sydney Swans member and has season tickets so
occassionally I go with him to the games when I am up in Sydney and his wife
won't/can't go. IMHO AFL is a game better seen live as you can see the big
picture of tactics

Hey, some of us have no choice.  Temps in the St Lawrence River are
about 17 C right now.  We usually start diving in May, when it's
around 10 C -- with 7 mm farmer johns/dry suits + hoods.  I still dive
wet.  You're lucky.

It's the "Stanley" Cup -- donated by Gov General Lord Stanley of
Preston, in 1892.  It was originally meant for Canada's top amateur
hockey team, but that's certainly been blurred over the years.

You're right -- almost all kids here have played hockey at one time or
another.  Even the girls are playing now, even though they started out
with ringette, and I'm sure many of them would kick my butt.

I just recall it as a wild, full-contact sport.  Lots of action, great
game to watch with a few pints.

I find North American football rather boring unless you're at a game,
too.

I dived Stewert Island which is the 3rd Island of NZ ( S of the other 2 )
at Christmas and the water temp was down at that level. Great diving, great
vis but I know why I stick to warmer waters.

Also dived at Doubtful Sound if you are ever in NZ that is a must

A few beers makes any game better

I watch one game of gridiron per year and that is the superbowl. I only do
it because a very good mate of mine ( ex septic ) puts on a superbowl brunch
plenty of piss, kranskys, ribs etc. Can't actually remember who has won any
of the games but am amazed that a game which has 15 min? quarters can last
so long

It's doubtful for me.  It's one helluva long trip from here and I'm
not a fan of long plane flights.

Definitely.

I pass on Stupour Bowls.  Usually extremely boring games where the ads
are more entertaining than the game.  You might even see some skin
during half-time games, à la Janice Jackson, although that really
isn't terribly exciting unless you lead a very sheltered life.  If you
think about it, they spend several seconds in a huddle, more seconds
lining up, a few seconds of action, followed by several seconds of
scraping off the injured players, several seconds of mearuring, more
seconds of going into the huddle, etc.  There really is precious
little action going on.
