Holy shit, Munster 16, NZ 18. Last minute try to Rokocoko steals it. Munster are our bogey team?
-
Interesting to see Howlett start the game with a Munster haka.
They should totally ensure someone called Herman is in the team at all times though.

I heard the last ten minutes of the game in a taxi en route to a Statistics NZ lock up on the producer prices index (they're up, in case you were wondering).
HUGE buzz. (the game, not the PPI)
The driver was incredibly excited, which, since he was Somalian, I thought was pretty neat. They're not big on rugby, as a rule. -
So there wasn't a Herman, but it was on Wednesday! (here at least)

I also caught the last ten minutes, on the bedroom radio. Orsome.
And hey Shep, since we moved I go down Cheyenne St pretty much every day.

I thought the shark got jumped a bit there.
I was waiting for that River Dance guy (Flattley?) who was there to come down and join in. -
I popped down Cheyenne St just the other day. My, hmm, outlaws(?) were up for the races and it seems my old house is up for sale.
Does it still has the velvet wall paper?And Wednesday was from the Addams family, oh the shame.

Me too. I always think of him as Michael Flathead. For no particular reason other than he looks like a twit.

My Da in his late 50s does "Michael Fattley Lard of the Dance"
Tie around the head, unbuttoned business shit (possibly some beer stains) . A sight not easily forgotten. -

In the year 2040 (possibly earlier) people will do studies on what that whole strange Turn of the Millennium Ricer Dance craze was all about.

3410,

Campbell Live promoted a story about "Munsters vs. All Blacks" the other day.

It was all about Jean Butler.

Now there is a category of person I never knew existed…

The New Zealand Scrabble team is considering calling themselves 'The Allphabets'. No joke.

What did they go with? The Black Tiles? The Silver Letter Word Scores?

QUIXOTRY would be better.

The New Zealand Scrabble team
Will they be playing live on Sky? Years ago, I made one sodding joke aside to a colleague about a ridiculously expensive Monopoly set for sale in a magazine advertisement.
Turns out, not only did my colleague have a set just like that at home, but he happened to be the NZ Monopoly champion at the time.
Who knew these strange people existed?

Why would you need an expensive set to be a Monopoly champion?
I can see that would apply to a lot of fringe sports like motor racing, golf etc..
But Monopoly?

Two of the top five most watched sports in the world there...

If memory serves, it was a hand painted inlaid wood affair, with brass trim & playing pieces... it cost a few $k in 1990.
I think he had it because he was a geeky devotee (yes, he was an analyst programmer).

I dunno, the wooden inlaid board might be a bit bulky to carry around the fairway & you'd need both hands to drive the car.

You could say the same thing of chess, yet I bet most top chess players have a nice chess set or two.

BTW, I watched the Munster replay last night, and I really think we should adopt the use of silence during kicks - it's really powerful shit!

Didn't you like it when one guy started yelling out and was roundly shhh-ed
