3-3 and Liverpool win on penalties

21 years ago, I got married on the 30/May and Liverpool reached the European cup final. The wedding couldn't be cancelled, so at the reception I invited all the guests around to my place afterwards to watch the game. Many turned up, and that story still goes down in 'folklore' about marriages.

Can't have been too bad, as we are still married today

Did you know that with the checkers game, you can actually play different levels!!

On May 25, 1925, John Scopes was indicted for teaching evolution in school. Evolution was a theory put forth by Charles Darwin, whose boat was named "the Beagle." People objected to this theory, which put forth the proposition that mankind had evolved from life forms with hairy red asses. This resulted in the famous Scopes Monkey Trial, in which Spencer Tracy gave a long monologue that changed everyone's minds even though it was so darn hot in the courtroom.

It is now commonly accepted as fact that mankind evolved from life forms with hairy red asses, a proposition that anyone who's been to the beach lately shouldn't find too hard to accept.

On May 24, 1819, Queen Victoria was born as Princess Alexandria Victoria at Kensington Palace, London. She reigned for sixty-four years, and lent her name to an era best remembered for its prudery and chastity. The chastity of the era was probably the result of so many citizens having to stay home and care for their children, since Victoria's reign also saw the largest population explosion in British history.

On May 24, 1844, Samuel Morse sent the world's first telegraph message to his associate. The message was "What hath God wrought?" Mr. Morse's associate didn't know, and did not advance to the next round, although he did receive a year's supply of Turtle Wax.

Today's birthdays include Gary Burghoff (1943), Bob Dylan (1941), and Jean Paul Marat (1743), as well as the eminent personages named above.

It's Bermuda Day in Bermuda, Culture Day in Bulgaria, Independence Day in Eritrea, and Commonwealth Day in Trinidad & Tobago.

I will be leading a group of 10 "very friendly, level headed " Americans (really, they are) on a tour of SA and Swazi in early September. Instead of flying on SAA direct from Atlanta to Joburg (19+ hours), we'll be traveling via the UK and will arrive at Heathrow early on a Saturday morning. Our flight for Joburg leaves that evening. We each have a dayroom reserved at a nearby airport hotel, so that we can get some rest and a shower, but I am interested in doing some sort of activity near Heathrow for 3-5 hours. I've heard there are some beautiful gardens nearby, but don't know their name. Any suggestions on how to use up a few hours?

Thanks,

Now that we are in the so called close season, let us find out who thinks players are going to move clubs during this time?

As an example, I'll start off with Rio Ferdinand leaving Man Utd and going to either Real Madrid or Barcelona.

Then come the beginning of the new season we can look back and see who was right and who got it totally wrong, which will probably be me!!
