    Ok, I'll make something up.

    When I was in 4th class in school, our teacher took us on a tour of Granby's sausage factory in the centre of Dublin. When we arrived, the owner of the factory, Mr Granby, greeted us and introduced us to his son, Nigel, who was to show us around the factory and give us an insight into how sausages were made.

    Now, the tour was fascinating, loads of gleaming machines, squealing pigs and menacing churning noises. As we finished the tour, Nigel leaned against the balcony over the vast sausage pumping machine and began asking us whether we'd enjoyed our little trip. As we readily affirmed our approbation, poor Nigel fell foul of the shoddy safety regulations rampant in mid 1980s Ireland. The railing he was leaning on gave way and he tumbled headlong into the sausage pumping machine. The result was predictably gory, and it has lived with me to this day.

    My handle is a tribute to that brave, brave sausage making man. I still believe that he is happy wherever he is, because he left this world in the form of the one thing he truly loved - the humble sausage.

    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    You sound like a bloody hippy. So what if one of the Ramones has unpolitically correct views. The one you're talking about is Johnny Ramone who is well known as having right wing views. But that don't change the fact he was a great guitar player.

    But what you didn't mention was that lead singer Joey Ramone is a Jewish liberal leftie. He wrote the song Bonzo goes to Bitburg about Reagan visiting a Nazi cemetery. He also wrote the lyric "I wanna steal from the rich and give to the poor".

    The Ramones were a brilliant band and without them there'd be no Clash, Undertones, Green Day or U2. The Ramones used write songs like Today Your Love Tommorrow The World with Nazi references to wind up the politically correct hippies. How could they be Nazis with a Jewish singer.

    It was bad day when i registered.....
    Whatever it was I am sure it was better than my plan to get out of this by pretending to be mad. I mean, who would have noticed another madman around here?

    It sucks big time alright. Maybe I should get rid off all of my roots reggae and Bob Marley CD's because Rastafarians are anti-abortion and anti-gay. But then maybe it's alright to be non-p.c. if you're black or should I say Afro-Carribbean. It's only a crime to be non-p.c, if you're a white Christian of European extraction.

    "Hi, my name's Troy McClure , you might remember me from such films like..."

    I thought it was quite ironic that everybody knew Troy Mcclure and he wanted to be known by everybody, but to be honest I like my internet privacy by not having my name on the web all the time. Id say most people that know me here call me Troy and prob dont even know my real name (although 3 deff do). Im still ****ed that James found out though . Speaking of him actually, dont people call you Jimmy down in Skib Mr Greenham? Surely you have a facinating story behind your handle?
    As I say, we're just young & a bit nieve.
