Hore set for hefty ban
26 Nov 2012
New Zealand hooker Andrew Hore has been cited for an off-the-ball incident which subsequently hospitalised Wales lock Bradley Davies.
Hore hit Davies off the ball during the initial stages of last Saturday’s Test in Cardiff. The incident was missed by matchday officials, but Hore has now been cited and looks likely to receive a lengthy suspension.
The time and date of the hearing, before the IRB’s appointed independent judicial officer, have yet to be fixed.
All Blacks coach Steve Hansen expects the hooker to be sidelined for some time. Hansen did not say as much, but has already called for a replacement ahead of the coming Test against England.
Dane Coles is expected to start at Twickenham.

I bet theres rich folk eatin
In a fancy dining car
They,re probably drinking coffee
and smoking big cigars
But I know I had it coming,I know I cant be free
But those people keep a moving,and thats what tortures me.

well with the crowds dissipated and musical greats being discussed…
here’s one of the greatest… and one of his greatest…
the essence of living in the moment and cherishing life just for what it is… life is the drug that gets me high…
Van the Man… And it Stoned Me…!!
Half a mile from the county fair
And the rain keep pourin’ down
Me and Billy standin’ there
With a silver half a crown
Hands are full of a fishin’ rod
And the tackle on our backs
We just stood there gettin’ wet
With our backs against the fence
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Hope it don’t rain all day
[Chorus:]
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll
And it stoned me
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like goin’ home
And it stoned me
And the rain let up and the sun came up
And we were gettin’ dry
Almost let a pick-up truck nearly pass us by
So we jumped right in and the driver grinned
And he dropped us up the road
We looked at the swim and we jumped right in
Not to mention fishing poles
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Let it run all over me
[Chorus]
On the way back home we sang a song
But our throats were getting dry
Then we saw the man from across the road
With the sunshine in his eyes
Well he lived all alone in his own little home
With a great big gallon jar
There were bottles too, one for me and you
And he said Hey! There you are
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Get it myself from the mountain stream

PEDIGREE LADY.Roger Waters a tortured Psyche.3 years younger than me.His father died during ear 1943.
Paris 1982 Galerie Lafayette Hausmann.Wife and I could either drink or eat.
Survived on instant soup and brioches(and beer).11.00pm
Streets deserted and from the Hausmann shopping centre they
were playing Brick in the wall through the loudspeakers.
Will never forget it.
Love people like this.Van Gogh et al.
Also love eccentrics.
In Jhbg there is a doctor,a Professor nogal.Very anti smoking.Had his
own talk in radio show.Will call him HS to avoid defamation suits.
His son in his fathers opinion is mad.Eventually banished from the
house to the servants quarters.
Of an evening he would go to JAN SMUTS AVE.totally naked
except for a sprig of dagga covering his genitals and play the
violin beautifully. There is aNOTHER called Sacha Cohen.
God preserve us from the bores.

With an overbearing, egocentric father like that, no wonder the kid rebelled.

@ryecatcher-8153: Hahaha Johnny is the man.
Not a country fan especially but I make a big exception for Johnny Cash.
Well if they freed me from this prison,
Well if they freed me from this prison,
If that railroad train was mine
If that railroad train was mine
I bet I’d move it on a little farther down the line
I bet I’d move it on a little farther down the line
Far from Folsom prison, that’s where I want to stay
Far from Folsom prison, that’s where I want to stay
And I’d let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away…..

Best Johnny Cash song…
The Wanderer
I went drifting
Through the capitals of tin
Where men can’t walk
Or freely talk
And sons turn their fathers in
I stopped outside a church house
Where the citizens like to sit
They say they want the kingdom
But they don’t want God in it
Songwriter: Paul Hewson
4 Dec 2012, 19:52 pm
Best Roy Orbison song…
Shes a Mystery to Me
In the night of love words tangled in her hair
Words soon to disappear
A love so sharp it cut like switchblade to my heart
words tearing me apart
She tears again my bleeding heart
I want to run she’s pulling me apart
Fallen angel cries
And I just melt away
She’s a mystery to me
Song Writer: Paul Hewson

Best Patti Smith song
Because the Night
With love we sleep
With doubt the vicious circle
Turn and burns
Without you I cannot live
Forgive, the yearning burning
I believe it’s time, too real to feel
Songwriter: The Boss

Best Ramones song that never was
Hungry Heart
Everybody needs a place to rest
Everybody wants to have a home
Don’t make no difference what nobody says
Aint nobody like to be alone
Everybodys got a hungry heart…
Songwriter: Bruce Springsteen
