lol, strangely enough one is exactly the same. But this year exams are shorter, for example today i only have to go in for 50 minutes. I plan on writing a little slower this year but really, in my opinion, the exams are the best time to sleep anyway, so quiet...

Sorry chap but you were playing for charity. You get nothing but a harsh slap in the face from reality due to the fact that you couldn't continue on to Final Jeopardy. God bitch slapped you out of the Jeopardy hall of fame and into the nothingness that is normality. Cherry-O, Pip pip!

March Hare here with yet another tea report.
This week, after ones frightful encounter with one 'lady grey', i found myself determined to find a new and exciting form of twinnings that i could truly enjoy. I thus progressed to purchase the two following tea forms-
Twinnings breakfast tea
+
Twinnings lapsang souchong, here's how i got on...
As it would no doubt give a more original flavour i decided to begin with the lapsang souchong, a tea from soth east china. Although it had a powerful and definately off putting smell of smoke, i progressed to make a cup. In fact the tast was quite nice, like a toned down version of the pleasurable aftertaste of a puff of a cigarette (being that one no longer smokes it was quite a nostalgic flavour) though not really like smoking, it is somewhat reminiscent in flavour of that sickening old habit. However when a little milk is added a purely divine smoky taste is prouduced that both relaxes and invogorates at once. But be warned, when drinking this tea do not add more than a drop of milk.
As for the breakfast tea, while fine of taste i fear the flavour itself to be much less heavily defined than that of the tetleys or pg tips brand, it is sadly rather plain, but for a first go good job by the twinnings factory.
overall, a 8 for the LS and for the BT...a six.

I don't think it's right to tar all Americans with the same brush. After all, some are or were quite talented authors (Mark Twain, for example) and have considerably more brain power than the average American of today.

Don't be so melodramatic. The Americans do speak a form of English, as do the Canadians, the Australians and the New Zealanders, as well as a few others which have slipped my mind. They speak better English than the Indian people who run my local fish and chip shop, becuase the only English they know is 'Do you wan't salt and Vinegar with that?'
It's a book written by an American, get over it, answer the questions and move on. It doesn't matter that much, surely.

I don't usually read all the posts in the EGC, Quik, so you'll have to forgive my late reply.
I usually only stop by when Coop has alerted me to a problem.
Provided your club is clean and appropriate, and you follow all the rules of NG, I won't lock your cub. If it turns out to be insulting to a certain group, or it's entirely "home-dawg, SUP!", chances are it will be locked.
Otherwise, feel free to start your club.

Yeah but it would be about 2 posts long before someone used the n-word and got a lifetime ban.

As far as I'm aware, any user using the n-word, weather intended as rracial abuse or not, shall have their account terminated. Newgrounds is not, has not been or will ever be affiliated with that word.

They don't have their account terminated unless we check their posts and every one they've ever made is "N*****!".
Otherwise, they receive a ban, like any other infraction of the rules. NG can disassociate itself from racism without being totalitarian.

Thanks for clearing that up, Ted.
Onto other news. I'm playing cricket tonight, though I've never played at this ground before, so it's a completely new experience.

Quite so. One played in the cricket yesterday. It was a bitter fought local derby. Cookley (My team and my Dad's home village) travelled to the neighbouring village of Wolverley (My Mum's home village.) Naturally, we won, trouncing them and their score of 80-7 off their 12 overs (8 balls each over)
We reached our target, with 5 balls to spare and 4 wickets in hand (one of which was my own!) I shall next be playing on Sunday, against DGSA (I have no idea what this stands for.) We call them the Patel XI, because it seems all their surnames are Patel. This is at home and I intend to contribute in my own ways once more.

Well done old bean! you gave them what for even if I do say so myself. Have you been watching the cricket in channel 4 at all? Any clues as to what the score is?
