I recently came acroos a guy on the net who was fed up with being policed by the nets Nerds, (you know, those that do not have a lot to say but use other peopl's dissabilities against them). He like me is dyslexic, both of us have a severe problem with spelling, with me going back to I was 12. I am long passed caring about anyone taking the rise out of me but since I have been the butt of harrasment all my life I can understand how hurtful it can be for others. I'm in my mid twenties and although dyslexic I have a GCSE at 'A' Level in Maths, Physics and Echonomics all top of the range passes, I didnt go to university and part o f the reason for that was concern about my written English. Do you not think that the disability of dyslexia is burdon enough without being sought out and lashed by those that that presumably have enough intelligence to answer a question on this forum. Or do you think being on thois forum makes you open game for any type of treatment the person answering wishes

I want to know what you think...give me your views...And if HONOR is an illusion...isn't everything else just the same? Why do people personify things? Is it indeed just human nature?

Does anybody know about session 27 of the series? If so, I would like to know what the title is, and if possible, where I could get that episode. I understand that the show ends at session 26 "the real folk blues pt.2" but Im finding rumors about a 27th session. I just wanted to know if they were true. Also, I would be very glad to do a file transfer with anybody that has that episode already on their computer through email attatchment or whatever.

i wont speak fr myself but the stats prove how partial ICC have been in givin' the ICC awards yesterday.....with absolutely nothing to support their baseless considerations.....


Its all aussies everywhere.....Mike Hussey stands no way close to YUVRAJ SINGH if talking about previous year's performances..STATS prove it....Yuvraj being way...way..ahead of hussey both in terms of total runs scored and centuries or half centuries for that matter..Yuvraj being the MAN-of-the-series for 3 straight times....and emerged as the Single most MATCH-WINNER for the Indian team on almost no-win situations.


a stand-in skipper M.jayewardena(in place of atapattu) gets preference ahead of Dravid as best captain..and everyone knows the consistency dravid has shown as a captain for the previous year excepting the windies series..Lankans themselves being thrashed 6-1 by dravid and his boys last year


Not a single award could be Justified..am speakin NOT fr India..but for STATS and performances
