    Diego Maradonna, the scorer of one of the greatest goal's ever in a world cup final's v England.

    As for his 2nd goal when he ran and danced around the whole England team that one was'nt bad either.
    Its crazy to see people be what society wants them to be but not me.

    Re. our Mam's of course they will be-which i why i slipped 'famous' into the title. Not having a pop at people family and of course they are famous to us but i meant famous in the common sense of the word because i kniow that most of our most respected people are our Mams, Da's, Bro's, Sisters, granparents, wives, gals etc.

    This is the "Favourite" thread. You must want the other one. Unless I've misread the use of asterisks and you offering the somewhat surreal oppinion that Jesus is a coat, cert, cart or crit

    Speaking of Jesus, there is a kid in my girls' kindergarten class named Jesus. At least I can always say I meet a Jesus. But they call him "Hey-Zeus"....

    Deities? Can't move for them here. We've got a Ganesh, two Mohamed's, and a scandenavian guy guy called Thor. Funnily enough, he looks nothing like the guy in Marvel Comics.

    Well he's a man who played a very important role in the fall of the Iron Curtin to start with.

    I'd say he'd have a story or two to tell, he's met ever single world leader, I'd say he has an interesting perspective on world events.

    He's the Leader of the Roman Catholic Church.

    Plus I want to drive the Pope mobile

    yeah like the one about how he went all over the third world telling uneducated, impoverished teenagers who can't support themselves to breed for the church coz Europes become godless.

    Or how he orchestrated opposition in those same countries to every sensible attempt at supplying even the most basic family planning services .

    How's about setting back the clock 50-100 years on the emancipation of women within his church or his achieving a level of damage to the ecumenical movement that Ian Paisley could never have dreamt of doing in his wildest imaginings.

    Well fair enough but look at the shape of the thing. An aerodynamic profile like that'd cut through the air like a grand sized wardrobe with both doors open. better off nickin' an ice Cream van.
