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.

Parents spend the first twelve months of their children’s lives teaching them to walk and talk…
and the next twelve years telling them to sit down and shut up.

A man called a hotel.
“How much is a room?” he asked.
“It depends on the size of the room and the number of people.” answered the clerk.
“Do you take children?” asked the man.
“No, sir,” replied the clerk.
“Only cash and credit cards!”

Lol you going to run out of things to say. I could help out but have only got a lot of nasty nasty animal stuff right now and that would be a downer for all.
So Thursday we had temperatures in the low 50′s, that was a first for me I think. It was confirmed on Morning live this morning.
You have no idea how hideous that kind of heat is.

The family has gathered in the lawyer’s office for the reading of Jack’s Last Will and Testament.
“To my dear wife, Esther, I leave our house, all our land, and R1 million.
To my son, Barry, I leave my Lexus, the Jaguar, and R500,000.
And to my brother-in-law, Jeff, who always insisted to me that health is better than wealth…
I leave all my exercise equipment!”

A man went to a psychiatrist…
“Doc, I think my brother’s crazy. He claims he’s a chicken.”
The doctor said, “You need to keep him in hospital for week. We need to put him under observation”
The man replied, “Okay… but you have to promise to return any eggs he lays!”

The lady of the house answered the doorbell to find a man with a small tool chest on her front porch.
“Good morning, ma’am,” he announced. “I’m here to tune your piano.”
She looked puzzled.
“I didn’t send for a piano tuner.”
“I know,” replied the man, “your neighbors did!”

Statistics on sanity show that one out of every four people is suffering from a mental illness.
Look at your 3 best friends.
If they’re all okay,
then it’s you…!!

There is nothing better than a friend…
except a friend with chocolate.

Was only supposed to be 38, which is unbearable already, how could they have got it so wrong and why were there no warnings about that kind of heat.
25 Jan 2013, 22:03 pm
I would rather walk with a friend in the dark…
than alone in the light.
25 Jan 2013, 22:04 pm
It is the privilege of friendship to talk nonsense
and to have your nonsense respected…
25 Jan 2013, 22:05 pm
shucks…
biff bashed…
25 Jan 2013, 22:06 pm
Anybody can sympathise with the sufferings of a friend…
but it requires a very fine nature to sympathise with a friend’s success.

Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another:
“What! You too? I thought I was the only one.”

My wife and I always compromise.
I admit I’m wrong…
and she agrees with me.

A successful marriage requires falling in love many times…
always with the same person.

”How do you get a sweet little 80-year-old lady to say the F word?
