    Hey JTM, you know I was going to go with Iceland and Croatia just like you did.  I just did not have the guts to eliminate Argentina in the first round.  But I did make a parlay bet and took Iceland against them straight up at odds of +800.  I can see it happening.  We agree on all the rest.  I can also see an upset with Mexico and Germany.

    Oops.  Must correct myself.  I see you took Sweden to make it out with Germany.  I have Mexico.  I do not believe Sweden can beat Mexico. We shall see

    I'm gambling Argentina get knocked out at the group stages. Part of me still cannot forgive Maradona and his cheat handball goal in the 86 finals even though admittedly Argentina did have a truly great team that year.

    I am sorry for calling you a bad name.  Really.  My point of view is that I am very proud to wear all these new shirts that I bought.  I just want to "represent" the band's, groups, and shows that I Love and Admire.  There is no shame in that (In My opinion).  

    I will be 48 years old in November (although I could really pass for 35). 

    Again, not to brag at all, but I just ordered 11 more shirts on E-Bay.  I realize that I am over doing it and seem out of control.  

    This may not be hard to believe, but when I wear (all) these new shirts in public, I usually end of meeting and talking to total strangers who either Love, Like or appreciate the Ronnie James Dio shirts I am wearing.  

    And that is a Great thing and Feeling because I just meet a new friend

      

    No need to apologise, a little bit of banter rarely hurts anyone I'm not easily offended. I think it's great you have a passion for collecting T's, you have the money, it's yours you can spend it how you like. So if it makes you feel good carry on doing what makes you feel happy.

    This is LAME.    Every 4 years we have this tremendous event and no contest here?  I am picking England.  And my second choice is Mexico.  There

     

    PS, if England can beat Costa Rica by two goals or more I can win $200 today

    Winner, winner, winner, nice one Rick...:hurrah:

    Not to offend but if really did this, you are a stupid Fucking Idiot. 

    No offence taken but I really did, because I did not want to look like a stupid fucking idiot. I was almost sixty at the time, I've also stopped wearing band T's as well (though I'm keeping those), the only motif T's I wear today are my ten or so different LEVIS T's..

    Okay, so this is not Led Zeppelin related, but I just received 7 shirts that I bought on eBay, all shirts with "Breaking Bad" And "Heisenberg" Logos. "Br Ba".  I also purchased 5 Sopranos shirts that I will receive in the next few days.  On top of all that, I just ordered 7 different  "Game of Thrones" Shirts (all on E-bay). 

    All said and done, I have bought over 135 shirts of all of My  favorite shows/groups/etc...

    How great is that?  Money to buy what I Want to display in Public 

    LED ZEPPELIN 

    RUSH

    Dio

    Iron Maiden 

    Judas Priest 

    Breaking Bad 

    The Sopranos

    GAME of THRONES...

     

    I bought a Breaking Bad Heisenberg sweat shirt and Los Pollos T a couple of years or so ago, could not bring myself to wear them, threw them in the bin (trash).

    I always considered the Eagles were the closest in relation to Zeppelin out of the 70s classic rock bands. Joe Walsh seems like a character but no, he is a real person. Probably the most stand-alone member of the Eagles, Joe Walsh is the odd one out, the most adventurous, the most daring, the most prolific. 

    Nah, the Eagles are more soft/country rock, middle of the road or aor even.

    Simultaneous reading these three, depending on my mood.

    In 2016, I read a lot on World War I, in 2017 World War II. This year I am revisiting the Vietnam War.

    Dispatches, a great read, borrowed that one from a friend in about 1976/77. 

  8.  "Shredding" is a relatively recent term "late 80s/early 90s ?", the first guitar player  to be a so called shredder would be iirc Yngie Malsteem (however his name is spelt). Tuneless noise if you ask me, just a horrible style, nothing clever about it at all..

  9. Tonight's the night, can Liverpool hang on to their three goal advantage when they face Roma in the second leg of the Champions League semi final. It would be a tragedy if Roma do to Liverpool what they did to Barca in the QF. An early goal from the Reds should surely seal a place in the final, the road to #6 is on. But this is Football and anything can happen. Like the cliché says "Football, it's a funny old game [innit]".....

    Chillumpuffer.  Where the hell are you?  Are you doing the World Cup this year?  I mean listing the brackets and having a bit of a contest?  Where we make our picks all the way through the tournament.  The only TRUE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP IN SPORTS. I am coming in with a possible early upset.  Or perhaps a tie.  Mexico and Germany.  The best first match IMO

    Plenty of time yet Rick, the focus here is still on  the last few games in the Premier League. Once that's over the focus will shift to the World Cup, six weeks or so away yet.

    Bit like 80 at the back of CP towers. Just done the lawn and my girls are loving the rays !!;). We will pay a heavy price for this. I'm off for a game of golf !

    I've done my lawns for the first time this year, the front lawn is still like walking on sponge, very soft, but the back is not too bad  the willow tree just the other side of the border with the bungalow at the back is soaking it all up.

    having a difference of opinion sense when is not okay?  I have seen how drugs have hurt people who thought they were helping them. A lot of people have pshycologic issues and even pot can make it worse for some people. It isnt really anything to laugh at, but it is true.

    I'm not taking the :bait: I give up.

    eIpman,  please stop with unkind words because you are encouraging other people now to be mean. I know I dont have as much education as you and I enjoy all of our discussions, but when have I said such things to you?   When I was a kid they said I was hyperactive and I had to take ritalin because they thought my  behavior in class was not like other kids. I tended to only focus on the subjects I liked but would get bored quick with some and then I would focus all of my attention on drawing pictures and ignoring the teacher. I even got whipped by the principal once.  School for me was almost non existant even though they made me go. I know Im not a stupid person, I just dont process things the same as others.  Some people are just on a different part of the spectrum Ipman, everybody isnt supposed to be the same.

    Kip,  you have not helped yourself with your uniformed/unqualified comments on this thread. Please go somewhere where you know what you are talking about because it's not marijuana.. Maybe you are just having a laugh..

    Ipman that is a cute story but nobody decides to start taking heroin from days at the beach

    C'mon Kip nobody is talking about Heroin (a truly bad drug). A little bit of the green stuff is only bad if one has a predisposition to mental illness. As it appears you do not participate in the smoking of the "Reefer" you are not really qualified to have an opinion. I'm sure that those of us here who like a Toke lead mostly happy successful lives, I know I do.
