Of course! It is also very Bristolian as in "awright me luvver?" so thought it was rather apt

Is that a real stache Jeraly? It looks like a trick one!

I thought the only reason to get married is so I could have glittery love trophy? Without that, what is the point?

Here's a random rant, but I HATE the way the commercials on TV are so much louder than the programming. It drives my nuts. I have to turn the TV up for the program I'm watching, and then the commercials come on and they Blast out of the TV, I have to dive for the remote and turn it down. I'm especially aware of it cos we live in an apartment building, and there's a baby in one of the nearby apartments. GRRRRRRRRRrrrrr

It is a fake 'stache but looks eerily realistic-ish!!! And if you are married then surely you should have a glittery love-trophy in your siggy as well?!

Pointy - I agree with you - it drives me nuts as well. When we play videogames the games are as loud as the commercials though so I think it is the programs that are quieter to make the ads seem louder. At least you are considerate enough to care

Anyone here ever taken a Krav Maga class?

[Jeraly 4]

Oh - and as an aside, I am currently browsing for Christmas presents to put on my wishlist. Any recommendations from Lush? I am going through the site with a fine toothcomb

no, don't know what it is

[Jeraly 4]

Yep, and then I'll make sure I include a few bible quotations too, or at least thank the Baby Jesus for the CSC processing my I-865 back in July.

be sure you put pics of him staring deep into your eyes. Or maybe naked. Either one - surprise us!

Oh darn... I forgot the bible quotes

Lemme work on that...

[Jeraly 4]

Oh I can't be bothered

Nicky just mutes the commercials.

Krav Maga is a self defense technique developed by the Isreali military. It's based a bit more on street fighting but it incorporates a lot of martial arts moves from varying schools. I saw it on tv a while back and it just looked like it was interesting...I wouldn't mind learning how to kick some serious #######!

I like this depiction with Christ's intestines coming out of his body

Irony

Gee, and here I thought FREEDOM begins with "FREE"

But honestly, most of the bible ones are very lame! The gangsta shiz is much cooler

Who watches commercials any more? I don't! I DVR everything I watch and rarely watch anything live.

I've never tried Krav Maga but it always looks similar to kickboxing which I did for some time. It's probably similar in that you get a total body workout, burns loads of calories and you get to kick a$$. I think anything like that always gives you laods of self confidence when it comes to self defence, which is always a good thing.

[VisaJourneyLady 33]

oh you see we're poor immigrants that can't afford a DVR, or at least, I'm trying to hold off buying too much stuff, till I have a job.

That Krav Maga sounds like fun. However with things like that I alway overestimate how fit it am, try a class, go hell for leather in the first part of the class, then it becomes clear that I was going overboard, and it was only the warm up, then the hard part comes, I can't keep up. I never return to the class. Sad but true.

One of the local gyms has a "try one class for free" and I'm thinking of doing it. But I am leery of those types of set-ups because I'm afraid someone will try to pressure me into a membership.

[Jeraly 4]

I've been looking for yoga classes, but we either need to sign up to a gym which costs a fortune or fork out $17 per class Owel - guess I will have to wait to get a job then
