Happy New Year!
In the time-honoured tradition, here is my year-end, top 5 lists of '06:
Albums
1. Rise Against - The Sufferer and the Witness
2. Dropkick Murphys – The Early Years
3. Tiger Army – II Power of Moonlite
4. The Misfits – Famous Monsters….EvilLive (tie)

4. Portrait of the Young Man as an Artist – James Joyce
5. Reveille for Radicals – Saul Alinsky

2. Walk the Line – Johnny Cash at least was cool
3. ummmmmm can’t remember anything else
4. Reservoir Dogs (always will be on my top 5 every year)
5. Pulp Fiction (ditto)
Chuck Norris Facts
1. Chuck Norris eats beef jerky and craps gunpowder. Then, he uses that gunpowder to make a bullet, which he uses to kill a cow and make more beef jerky. Some people refer to this as the "Circle of Life."
2. When Chuck Norris sends in his taxes, he sends blank forms and includes only a picture of himself, crouched and ready to attack. Chuck Norris has not had to pay taxes, ever.
3. When Chuck Norris was denied an Egg McMuffin at McDonald's because it was 10:35, he roundhouse kicked the store so hard it became a Wendy's.
4. When an episode of Walker Texas Ranger was aired in France, the French surrendered to Chuck Norris just to be on the safe side.
5. There are no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, Chuck Norris lives in Oklahoma.
Thank you very much, you’re a beautiful audience, I’m here all week, try the Veal. What are your Tops of ’06?

I guess Chuck is the dude who Andrew takes lessons from: brawling in pubs (and elsewhere) is one of his specialties. Do try and leave your neighbourhood in one piece - and hopefully make a few friends along the way. :-)
Love, (and I hope you didn't require stitches), Mom

"Brawl"?? Hardly Mother. We here in the very cradle of civilized behaviour prefer to call it a "Meaningful Exchange of Dialog"

That Chuckie! He knows all the angles. :-) Don't forget your British history - cradle of civilized behaviour? Ha Ha. I am assuming that "meaningful" is used in the broadest sense of the word.
OK. Mother will go away and get a grip.
See ya,
Love, "Mother"
