  1. If we were talking about the blackberry fruit, then the plural would indeed be blackberries; but since Blackberry, here, is naming a brand of electronic device, then the plural would simple take an s. IMHO Here's another example: our local National Hockey League team is the Toronto Maple Leafs, not the Toronto Maple Leaves. Strange but true!
  2. "Blackberry's"? To make a plural noun just add the s; there is no apostophe required.
  3. That's because they're probably striving for mediocrity.
  4. It's worth it. You get live commentary of all games (home and away). Highlights from all the games. And regular pre-game and post-game interviews with the manager and some of the players. And they're now showing the entire game against Torquay.
  5. Oldham won.
  6. The earth isn't a sphere; it's an ellipsoid. Because of its rotation the Earth bulges slightly at the equator.
  7. I've been checking out Saints Player in preparation for tomorrow's game against Millwall. My subscription from last season doesn't expire until November, so I presume I should be able to coonect to the new system without problem; however, when I click on "Sign In" on the Saints Player page - in order to enter my ID and password - the screen goes dark and freezes. Anyone experiencing the same? Any ideas on what to do? Thanks.
  8. Great signing for Palace?
  9. My god! (in mock horror style - a la Basil Fawlty).
  10. A flat diminished seventh (or G sharp diminished 7) Check the link below for chord pictures. http://www.guitar-chords.org.uk/g-sharp-diminished7-chord.html
  11. They're available on Monday, after the Saturday games; and the next day, after a mid-week game.
  12. Chess (the ultimate board game!) ... and I liked Risk when I was a kid.
  13. To prefer one over the other is simply a category mistake. I support Saints in the English FL club scene. I support England in the international scene. No problem. BTW, the mid-sixties were the golden years for me: Saints were promoted to the First Divison and England won the World Cup.
  14. ... same as it ever was ...
  15. Oh, please ... If I may quote my least-favourite tennis player of all time. "You cannot be serious".
  16. The Victor trap is very effective. Smear the traget area with a dollop of peanut butter.
  17. Thelonius Monk - Genius of Modern Music (two separate CDs on Blue Note Records has recordings done between 1947 and 1952). Brilliant stuff!
  18. He's that fast?
  19. Usually, -ie- in German is pronounced "ee", and -ei- is pronounced "eye".
  20. Steely Dan - Two Against Nature
  21. Rockingham Arms?
  22. Sara by Bob Dylan (from the Desire LP)
  23. Randy Newman - I Think It's Going to Rain Today Billie Holiday - Strange Fruit Billie Holiday - God Bless the Child Frank Sinatra - Last Night When We Were Young Frank Sinatra - Only The Lonely Peggy Lee - Is That All There Is? Richard Thompson - Never Again Louis Armstrong - Black and Blue Gustav Mahler - Wenn dein Mutterlein tritt zur Tur herein [from the Kindertotenlieder] Nick Drake - Black Eyed Dog Derek and the Dominoes [Eric Clapton] - Have You Ever Loved a Woman Kate & Anna McGarrigle - Heart Like a Wheel
