[mystiroakey]

Btw Fader 25 is fine anyway- your in the healthy scale so either way its no dramas at all mate!

[super_realist]

Just did Shane Lowry's, not good reading for him.

BMI 30. More bodyfat than 97% of the world and if everyone was as heavy as him the world's bodyweight would be 70million tonnes more.

[mystiroakey]

i am surprised lowey is only just obese mate!!
- id guess he is closer to 33 or something
whats his height and weight?

[super_realist]

183 cm and 16 stone/103kg. Fat bar steward.

[mystiroakey]

yeah i suppose that is pretty heavy for 6 foot!

[super_realist]

Pretty heavy for anyone. He looks like Billy Bunter.

[Diggers]

I came in at 23 which was less than average and most like someone from Zimbabwae apparently........hopefully not Robert Mugabe !

[1GrumpyGolfer]

Fat barsteward here. I should live in Samoa

[super_realist]

He's probably a bit more cheerful Diggers!

[Tiler76]

I came in at 28 - apparently I'm most like someone from the United States. Oh the shame!!

lethal force protects the oylimpics- cool story!

[navyblueshorts]

Cool? Not sure I'd go along with that. TBH, I'm surprised we can muster the necessary hardware/personnel to do it!

[mystiroakey]

Well hopefully we wont find out if we can do it or not. But its intereting stuff dude..

[navyblueshorts]

Quite like the Typhoon as a jet; unusually pretty for a modern fighter plane IMO.

[navyblueshorts]

On another topic, see Terry got off:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-18827915

Can't say I'm surprised. What a waste of money that was. Assuming everything reported over the duration was accurate, I would have been gob-smacked if he'd been found guilty.
Should make the next conversation between Terry and Rio Ferdinand interesting....

[Fader]

NBS, Have to say I totally agree. If all the evidence reported and information given is deemed to be accurate then if Terry had got a guilty verdict i'd have been more than shocked.

Certain things to come out of this have made Anton Ferdinand and his team mates seem more than a little to up for getting Terry in trouble just because he is an arrogant tool. I don't like Terry but the evidence reported and some of the statements given by players, police and team mates of Anton did nothing to show Terry was guilty of anything, other than being his usual arrogant self...

On another off topic, theme, has anyone seen those adverts on SKy for the Insanity workout programme. Seems a bit gimmicky but a friend of man has bought it and swears by it losing a stone in a month whilst adding more muscle mass. I workout regularly anyway as stated above but never found the workout at home DVD thing to be beneficial

[mystiroakey]

Nah - your vunerable mate.. Your protesting to much.. forget the fads(by the way they all work if you are motivated to do them)

its only motivation thats needed. Its easy to get free info on how to do anything anyway.

[mystiroakey]

Salmond played in the pro am for the scottish open with luke donald- lols..

[Fader]

Agreed Mysti, if your motivated anything can work its not hard in this digital age to get any information you want. I've just watched a full length "infomercial" as they call in on the advert about this insanity package.

BAsically a hundred quid for someone on a dd telling you what plyometrics to do! so the same things everyone learns at school. I'm in the wrong business. Think i'll stick to my gym sessions and let my mate think he has a bargain!

[4putt]

John Terry is innocent.

I bet that made Diggers day.

[Diggers]

Much as it would have been nice for Terry to get done, he has been publicly humiliated through the case which has been great. Plus whatever the verdict the old theres no smoke without fire theory will mean there is always a cloud over him because of this. So all in all I'm fairly happy with it.

[kwinigolfer]

What a waste of tax-payer money . . . . . .

Is it just one's advanced age that feels some raking studs on Terry's goolies would have been far more expedient?

[mystiroakey]

Yeah its all out there mate- on forums and stuff- as long as you now how to fiter through the good stuff- which i am sure you do!!

[Fader]

Don't you hate it when you fall asleep on train only to wake up a good few stops after where you should have got off! Low and behold the train back to where I should be isn't due for another hour!! Long wait then!

[1GrumpyGolfer]

I always used to do that as a kid Fader. Would be awake right up until where I was due to get off. The amount of times I would think I cracked it only to doze off for a few moments. I would inevitably wake up as the train was leaving the station I wanted to get off at.

[mystiroakey]

wear a wake me up sign!

[mystiroakey]

omg i have just thought of an iphone/android app!!

wake me up based on gps signal!!

copyrighted by mystiroakey

[Fader]

Mysti you might be onto something there. My problem with that though is my home stop is literally a nats chuff from the tunnel so gps doesn't kick in straight away after exiting tunnel so I'd still have been out of luck. But isn't a bad idea really, off to the Dragons den with you

[McLaren]

Why not just set an alarm to go off 5 mins before your train is meant to arrive?

[Shotrock]

Mysti - Let them laugh at you but that's a heck of an idea. I know more than one NYC Ad Executive that went to happy hour, boarded the train and then missed the stop. And in the Metro NY area, inbound trains don't come by as often later in the evening.

[Fader]

I wasn't planning on falling asleep! I never sleep on train I usually have something to read. So no need for an alarm.

[mystiroakey]

I just bought the android for dummies book as well. lol- that can be my first project

[SmithersJones]

I really like that idea. Only problem would be battery drain, though. You'd need it to be running in the background, which means intermittent checks on location. Otherwise, if you have to switch it on then you may as well just switch on an alarm for 5 mins before the train's due to stop at your station. As long as it's configurable so that you can choose how often it checks, and how wide the area is that triggers the event, it'd sell.

[Diggers]

Wouldnt work on my line, you are lucky to get any kind of signal for most of the journey. I just set my alarm to wake me 10 minutes before I arrive at my station.

[mystiroakey]

It would obviously be better with phones that have full gps rather than assited gps- which in fairness many do these days. Your right though smithers it would be a battery drain

[Diggers]

More to the point it's already been done, Wake Me Up is the app.

[mystiroakey]

yeah i knew that would be the case.. allways is with my ideas. My last one was for disposible sweat protectors that you could just attach to your armpits if you had a cheeky date after work or something

[super_realist]

Does man sausage Fowler actually think his diabolical moustache looks good?

[mystiroakey]

I think he actually does. but its his bob hair that really grates me

[navyblueshorts]

Is there anyone else who hates the idiot baseball caps that players wear in post-round interviews?

[Fader]

I don't get the whole flat billed caps thing anyway, as for Fowlers tache it's the most ludicrous facial fur since adolph himself. But I still like Fowler much prefer him to McIlroy and like to see his results.

If you said about hill billy bubba thats another storey something about him that really winds me up just seeing his face and name.

[navyblueshorts]

Quite like the way Fowler plays the game but I'm not sure about his 'look'. Then again, I'm getting old and I don't think I understand 'the kids'.
Not sure about Bubba but quite like the, what looks like, self-taught swing.

[super_realist]

I saw a little yank kid dressed up like fowler last week in st.andrews.

I just about died laughing. I've never seen anything more ridiculous.

[mystiroakey]

the look is just laughable- but i like it at the same time. It is a bit embarrasing that he thinks he looks decent. Poults has good style. Fowler needs to take abit of advice off the king of golf fashion

[navyblueshorts]

Nah. Fowler has the advantage of looking like he might be good at the game...

[navyblueshorts]

I wonder how many times this sort of tragic event has to happen before the U.S. realises that allowing every idiot ready and legal access to an armoury is a dumb idea?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-18921492

[Diggers]

Poults does not have good style , he highlights his hair at 35 years of age for christs sake.

[super_realist]

I'd say poulter is certainly a better player than fowler.

I'm not convinced about fowler long term future in the game. Shaky swing, streaky player and possibly already swayed by the money and fame just like kournikova was.

[McLaren]

Navy

It is not a choice either political or otherwise. Just too many people see it as a basic right and these people have some big lobbying influence.

[Diggers]

I've never seen Fowler shank it like Poulter has numerous times. And he is more streaky than Poulter.
