Hard News: Is that it?, in reply to DexterX,
This sits nicely alongside what the Nats are looking to do with the food stamp card.
Yes, plus: what could possibly go wrong!

Field Theory: How's that working out for…, in reply to BenWilson,
I'm not sure what you mean by mountaineering.
I meant mountain climbing. Possibly based entirely on the fact that Ardito Desio lived to be 104. But my motto on these matters is "death before researching which form of exercise is better for you".

Running leads to joint problems
And joints lead to running problems. It's kind of reciprocal.
I've always thought of mountaineering and swimming as the two life prolonging forms of exercise. So long as you neither drown nor fall in the process. Mind you, I don't really know what I base either of those convinctions on.

Yup. Jedeye is back
Ta. Is he any good? The Gialappa’s Band commentary back home sustained me during USA 94 in particular, it was great. When Italy missed the last penalty in the final they shouted GOAL!, which set off an interesting, really alternative period of commentary.
Mind you, the regular Maori TV commentary will be worth a go.

Maori Television's Sin Bin looks like it'll be fun too.
Is there anything planned in terms of alternative commentary to the games themselves (you know, something a comedic bent that one switches on after having muted the telly)?

Well, according to Wikipedia to qualify as a Sport it must involve Balls.
Chess is definitely a sport then.
