Similar predictions to mine there (with a few tweaks, but who's going to agree at this stage of the game?)

Which of the 8 series is going to be the most fun to watch? I think NYR and NJ will be awesome to watch, as they are local rivals both with points to prove.

Not that I want to pour water on your bonfire, but I'd suggest that you diversify your taste a little. Granted, I have read every Discworld novel at least twice (with the exception of THUD!), but I did start reading the now 30 book series over 10 years ago.

I'm getting really intrigued with the Bourne Identity. Fascinating read, thanks for the reccomendation, MasterStalker

That only means extra crumpets for Coop then :)

Milk and two sugars please.

I say, the snooker was a little shocking. Combined 8-time world champions Stephen Hendry (7 titles) and John Higgins (1) were eliminated from the World Championships in Sheffield. Normally, this would not be surprising, but since it is the first round, you really have to wonder.

So, it will be much appreciated if I could get some helpful tips for noobs

Ok, the first helpful tip is to find one of the three cities for your faction (Stormwind for your pally and Orgrimmar for your hunter.) From there you can access a sceond city (Ironforge and Undercity.) You can choose the quests which suit you, as there are twice as many quests to do for your level.

If you find certain helpful people, you can go to the third city (Darnassus or Thunder Bluff) because you need help against the mobs en route.

Anything you need help with, let us know.

I play English pool (15 balls, 7 reds, 7 yellows, one 8-ball and 1 white) all the time, but sometimes I win, sometimes I lose.

They moved the pool table at my local and now it's on a slope, which sucks.

Don't be confused. We are trying to offer you diversity. These are the options and you need to choose where you take your character to develop.

At level 28, you can also think about moving to the Stonetalon mountains, south of Ashenvale. There are quests there wich lead to Desolace (need to get a quest for the Scarlet Monastery there) and Ferelas (another Night Elf base, Feathermoon Stronghold)

I get the feeling it will be the Rocket, Ronnie O'Sullivan. He leads 7-0 in the best of 19 frames match against Dave Harold.

I'm not ruling out either John Higgins (form) of Shaun Murphy (defending champ)

That's a good situation. I think people need to watch a little TV, just to keep up to date with the world, but people wh watch more than say 6 hours a day need to find something to get them off their fat arses. (I used to be like that)

Stourbridge, what a great place. I frequently drive there to go bowling and will be making a few trips there this summer to go and play cricket.

I'd never have guessed there were cricket grounds in the built up industrial areas.

He wouldn't be living without TV, he'd just be limited to 6 or 7 channels (5 terrestrial and 2 cable, depending on what the boxes were set to before I steal the remotes) Hopefully Kerrang and NASN (American Sports TV)

i hardly watch it.. but i like to know that if i wanted to.. i could.

He still can, I'm using it to the full advantage, watching TV while playing on the computer is great.

I considered how much I watch TV. I spend about 2 hours a day watching on average, compared to about 10 hours a day on the computer (granted, there's about 6 hours a day on the office computers)

I daresay that would be like the remotes in my house. My dad is forever walking off with the control and dumping it somewhere else in the house.

Considering that we have about 15 remotes in our house, this can get more than a little infuriating.
