Where or what is OBX?

OBX = The Outer Banks (http://www.outerbanks.org/). It's a string of barrier islands off the coast of North Carolina. Basically, one long ass beach.

the outer banks of North Carolina. Where Blackbeard made his home. the graveyard of the atlantic. where flight become reality. where you brits tried to make a colony and failed. where horse roam wild. tis a glorious place that holds a special place in my heart.

I am heading out there to our vacation house tomorrow afternoon and escaping the madness of NASCAR for the weekend.

Hellooooooooooooooooooo


Is it me you're looking for?

[red & wite army]

I'm off to play an inter-uni football game in the next hour or so - in my position of defensive-mid!
Well, playing down a few levels, I just position myself infront of the defense, and slide side to side, bit like a foozball player. I touch the ball maybe 4 times in a half, but it is somewhat effective.

According to my karaoke performance a few weeks ago...yes!

Should one keep personal discontent with coaching staff quiet if voicing your opinions will serve to detriment ones own AMATEUR sports teams:

I need a bit more context. The question is leaving me somewhat confused for a reason.:confused:

[Case]

Growing discontent from a faction within a team, which you can relate to with your own personal issues with the coaching staff. The team is successful despite of this. Your voice carries weight and an outburst will likely exaccerbate the divide....

now i can agree with Barry Obama as to the US being more like Europe on this issue.

Good Job Europe!

I haven't worked til past 1pm in weeks! I've forgotten what an honest days work is!

[red & wite army]

Case, while I definitely see your point, unless there will be a greater-good constructive outcome to a rant, I suppose it's best to stay quiet. Maybe just lock yourself in a room and scream and bang the wall in frustration?

Speaking of frustration. My home was burgled again, last week. I graduate from my current degree at the end of next year. I would then be an architectural technologist, but not yet an architect. For that, I would need to work for a year, and then do a further 2 years studies.

I'm thinking of packing it all in come the end of next year, to search mediterranean Europe for a simple life, with a less-qualified job, to enjoy a lifestyle that involves social-interaction!!

After having to endure years and years of my grandfather's constant racist remarks and prejudice, I took a stand against him.

He went on to say that I am a minority part of the world's society, that believes in racial equality.
He then said that people who stick up for such minorities generally have a chip on their shoulder, and are usually homosexual.

I was astounded at what he was insinuating, and then went on to tell him that he was in fact in the minority, in his belief for racial inequality.

And so kicked me out of the house, pointed his finger in my face, and shouted, "If that's what you believe, then goodbye, Goodbye, GOODBYE!"

:rolleyes:

[Tony Dellbird]

Haha is your grandad Nick Griffin?

[Skizz]

Looooooool. Jimmy Carr did make a funny joke about Nick Griffin the other day, saying that the BNP moan everyone is biased. He said "it is true, you can only talk about their leader when the watershed has passed, and even then they usually bleep out the word c**t" loooool.

Checkin in by the way, how is everyone?

There's some good Tele coming in the second half of this year, new Skins, Spooks and Hustle too.

I need to see Transformers 2. My girlfriend saw it about a week ago and refuses to tell me anything.

[ctoa23]

How'd she see it a week ago?

That new Johnny Depp movie looks awesome, the one about John Dillinger.

She works for the Odeon, so not only gets to see it free, she gets to see a week or so before everyone else. It's not all bad, I still get to see any film whenever I want for free when they're out.

I've been at the local comedy festival for the last week, may well have OD'd on comedy as I'm beginning to be incapable of finding anything funny nor can I take anything seriously....

But a few cracks on the topic of racism, I hope I attribute them correctly though all acts are starting to merge into one-another:

On Nick Griffin:

Tiernan Douieb "In mythology, a Griffin was half eagle, half lion. Whereas in reality Griffin is just a c0ck...."

But it isn't a given that the racist outlook is morally wrong:

Richard Herring "If the racist viewpoint is to be examined, then we can see that basically there's four groups: white/whoever they see as the same as themselves, all peoples from indonesia, malaysia, japan, korea and the south pacific are "chinese", everyone from africa are "black" whilst all individuals from the indian sub-continent are "paki's" to a racist. 179 unique countries in the world, yet to a racist only four types of people. Which creates a sad truth that a racist is 175 nearer to seeing everyone as the same that we are! Infact, some racists only see whites and blacks, which means they are only 1 away from enlightenment......"
