yorbcbud - it's time for you to power up that bus and drive around. It's travel time.


I may need a boost. And a snowplow. And the urge to actually go somewhere.

Since this IS the Offtopic thread


Did you hear, the Russian Giant, 7'1", 330 pound Nikolai Valuev, the former WBO Superheavyweight Boxing Champion, is fighting Belarus's Sergei Liakhovich for an opportunity at a rematch with Ruslan Chagaev for the WBO Title Nikolai lost to Ruslan in a decision some time ago. This is awesome. I do not know if any of you guys are into boxing, but I am, so this is great!

BTW, notice too: all of the boxers mentioned, as are also all the holders of ALL the Heavyweight Division titles in all the brands, are from the former Soviet Union:

WBO Title - Sultan Ibragimov, Russia
IBF and IBO Titles - Vladimir Klitchko, Ukraine
WBC Title - Oleg Maskaev, Russia
WBA Title - Ruslan Chagaev, Uzbekistan

Ouch! American boxers need to do something, or they are going to get pushed out of the business completely! Laughing Wink No offence, Surfguy! Very Happy

Wow, 7'1" and 330 lbs....that is a big man...Ah Oh! Where's Rocky?... Very Happy

Yeah, we need some new younger fighters, not old men who like to bite off ears.

I think it's great that we have some fresh boxers out there and honestly I was so tired of the Don King...mike Tyson...bull shit that boxing had to endure. Seriously I like Klitschko, Sultan and the others. I think it's great! We need some good "white" boxers out there. I rooted for Haden against Merryweather. And there are some tough fighters out there...especially from the former USSR countries. And I like to watch mixed martial arts too

Ah. The good old days. I miss the way hockey used to be. We didn't hate each other, that's how hockey is supposed to be. You guys started it by winning in 54.
Did you see the Juniors this year? It was a great final between Sweden and our boys. Not as heated as the finals with Russia, but a great game. I can't stand Don Cherry, never could, even when he coached the Bruins.

Make sure it is a pentium processor. Do not get a Celeron processor. They run hot and slow. Most any laptop with a pentium is good. 80 to 100 GB's.
