    Does that sound like a plan? The wife told me go and have fun, her orders. She knows this is huge match. She has to listen to all of my football stats, comments, and watches a few matches occassionally.

    Ginger's Ale House on Ashland and Grace before 10AM!

    Patrick, did you change your name AGAIN? That's like 4 names in the last 3 weeks. How will we ever keep up with you?

    You should change *your* name to "Detective McGuirk." How do you keep figuring this out?

    It's not my Holmes-like powers of deduction, that's for sure, but as a writer I can ferret out who wrote a post if I have seen him post a few times before.

    Writing style is like fingerprints, lads. How do you think they finally figured out who the Unibomber was? "Penthouse" prints his manifesto, and his brother read it and recognized the writing. Hello, prison!!

    Of course, I confirmed I was right by looking at his list of posts.

    You can't escape me, Patrick1234!!

    I'll always know it's you!!!

    *L*

    BTW, Dan, why such interest? Thinking of going "underground" for a spell and tormenting the manUre board?

    Nah. I only know about sockpuppets, I have no interest in setting one up.

    So what kind of writing do you do? Journalism major/English minor here...and I don't do anything remotely related to writing any more.

    I do contract work for a few local companies, putting together training materials, writing scripts for training videos, etc., plus I have a friend who runs his own PR firm and he sends me work steadily, press releases and that sort of crap. I worked for an ad agency when I lived in North Carolina writing copy. That was probably the most fun as the work was relaxed. I actually wrote a local auto dealer spot in 1998 that they are still running to this day on the stations that carry the local high school football games.

    That's why I am on during the day: work from home, watch LOTS of afternoon matches.

    Then, of course, I am working on the obligatory novel and screenplay, the writer's version of the lottery. *L* I'm pretty sure neither one will ever amount to more than a future line on my resume.

    I write a lot, too. It's a good thing to do. Stephen King wrote as Richard Bachman early in his career, but he was found out by his writing style, by some bookstore clerk in Washington D.C. Yet another piece of useless information.

    Yes...it's me! The Evil Patrick

    The reason why I picked my nickname as my BS name is when i find the city that my ancestors originated from I will cheer for that club...don't worry if it is Manchester...MAN City...but I my 1st and true love will always be The Arsenal.

    Gary....let's have that pint. I know they won't give it to us until 11 (Damn you!) but we will have something to wet our whistle for the 2nd half.

    Remember, bald with dark brn hair and goatee. I also am about 6ft tall and 200 lbs. With a new plain home Arsenal kit!

    OK, now I'm more confused than before, but for me that's a common occurrence.

    Dear Coach,

    Here is what I mean. Many of my ancestors (they were Smiths) have originated from England. They came to the US in the 1700's. I thought it would be cool to support the club/city where some of them were born, when and IF I ever find out that useful and elusive information.

    BUT, understand that I will always be a Gunner, first and foremost.

    Go in Peace..
