To the tune of Mr. Lee by The Bobbettes (1957): 1, 2, 3 (hey), it's Tadanari Lee; 2, 3, 4 (hey), look at him score; Mr. Lee, Mr. Lee, Tadanari Lee, Mr. Lee, Mr. Lee, Tadanari Lee, Mr. Lee, Mr. Lee, Tadanari Lee, Mr. Lee - ee - ee. If you're not familiar with this catchy little number, check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xi-qUhGHm2A&noredirect=1

To the tune of Sha-La-La-La-Lee by the Small Faces: "Picked him up from the J-League, yeah, Tadanari Lee, yeah; Scoring goals he does for fun. Tadanari Lee, yeah, Tadanari Lee. "Ask him where he wants to go, Tadanari Lee, yeah; Premier League, now, go man go, Tadanari Lee, yeah, Tadanari Lee."

The Beatles are nonpareil.

Oh, and I like him a lot more than "former-Saints hard-man Jimmy Case".

It really is time to bring back the death penalty

A destitute man steals a loaf of bread to feed a starving family. What does justice require? a) chop off his hand to show that stealing is a serious offense and to deter others from doing the same b) give him three months in jail so that the baker feels better about his loss c) throw him in jail for six months so that society is satisfied that the system is tough on crime c) provide welfare so that the man and his family do not starve and he doesn't need to resort to stealing to survive A man kills someone, apparently, in cold blood. What does justice require: a) the state should execute the killer to show that killing is wrong, to stop him from killing again, and to deter others from killing b) the state should put him in jail for life because killing is a heinous crime that should not be tolerated, and to deter others c) the state should put him in jail for life because killing is a heinous crime that should not be tolerated - but with the possibility of parole after a long period, if the man shows that he has been rehabilitated d) the state should put him in jail for a limited period (e.g., 10 years) and provide the chance for parole after a set period A president and his secretary of state initiate a secret, illegal, fourteen-month campaign of carpet bombing of two defenseless countries. 2,756,941 tons of ordnance are dropped in 230,516 sorties on 113,716 sites. Over 10 percent of this bombing was indiscriminate, with 3,580 of the sites listed as having “unknown” targets and another 8,238 sites having no target listed at all. Justice requires that: a) the president and his secretary of state be charged with war crimes b) the president and his secretary of state be impeached for pursuing an immoral and illegal act of war without the permission of congress c) the president be re-elected and the secretary of state be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize A Prime Minister takes his country to war to support an ally, despite the fact the majority of his people oppose the action. Justice requires that: a) he be charged with war crimes b) he be deposed as leader immediately by his own party c) he be praised for strengthening ties with his ally d) he be made a "peace envoy" and sent to solve the problems in the Middle East -

Come on, Saints! Three points, please!

You want a "corporate symbol"; I want a club badge. You're focused on Southampton FC as a business; I see it as a football club.

So Beautiful or So What by Paul Simon - another great album from him!

Tacky? How so. The scarf is shaped like a scroll, and it puts red and white stripes into the crest. The ball is placed at the top with the scarf around it - like a scarf around a supporter's neck. And the halo is over the ball - like a halo over the head of a saint. Simple, but clever! How can you possibly find that tacky?
-
It always amuses me when people not only predict the goalscorers, but also give the time of the goal too. Having said that, is anyone aware of somebody ever guessing correctly the goalscorer AND the time that he scored?
-
I think the crest is wonderful. I particularly love the top part - the shape of the scarf and the football with the saint halo on top. Brilliant!

It's called reverse psychology - nervous nellies desperate to be proven wrong! Saints to win!

100 Saints, the definitive list..... Thoughts required.

Terry Paine, Ron Davies, John Sydenham, Martin Chivers, Mick Channon, Alan Ball - to start with! -
"Life could be present...". Speculation that is not very useful. Think about it. To get accurate information would require travel to that solar system. The fastest manned rocket so far has been Apollo 10, travelling back from the Moon at about 40,000 km/h. The fastest unmanned probe, New Horizons, travels at about 57,600 km/h. To travel to a star-system that is 600 light years away (18,921,600,000 km) would take 473,040 years (manned), or 328,500 years (unmanned). Even travelling at the speed of light (!) would take 600 years!

Ah ... the five-pound fee is due? I don't recall being reminded of such.
-
Whereas yours is very prominent! And what's with the advertising? Does this mean there is no more 5 pound fee?

Did I miss something? Wondering why my avatar doesn't show anymore. Anyone know?

I remember him directing some excellent documentaries for the BBC in the 60s on famous composers - specifically, ones on Frederick Delius and Edward Elgar. Most of his films, unfortunately, still unavailable on DVD (at least in NA - how about the UK?).

The newspaper you prefer probably indicates how good a reader you are, how intelligent you are, and how sophisticated your world-view is. It probably indicates whether or not you have a wide interest in news (local, national and international), politics, culture, sports and entertainment. It also indicates whether or not you're interested in thinking about things and having your views challenged, or just prefer to have your biases and prejudices reinforced. Or if you just prefer to look at the pictures and scan the headlines.
