I wish I couldve been a member when the blogging compettion but i hope i have a good chance in the forum compettion because i have alot to write about Ballyfermot
Its not so much a problem as an oppertunity ,to make up for lost time, and with a greater chance of doing so to win
So when is the closing date for the forum compettion.

I want a laptop to (Please)pretty please.
Want eh? I guess you'll have to try harder than that my pretty pleaser, it's a start granted, but you must try harder!
be a dear Bridget, get talking on the over 55's forum if you want to increase you chances
I don't think Bridgets over 55 dude.
Hmmm... I hope you right... but I have here in my class twice a week.. so what are we doing on the over 55's I ask you?
Hmm, That's actually a good question and I have no answer except learning about the past I guess.
I'm like Ned Flanders, over 65, and kept young by God
I like Homer, can't decide
Oh yes he can
Okay maybe a little
I'm naming this one "Kirk Hammett" from Metallica
I finally kinda figured out these emoticons for the forums.
What are they scripts from that website?
I'm naming this one "Kirk Hammett" from Metallica
I met him once in Brucelles in Grafton Street , small, curley and brought his wife for protection
Really, the furthest I got him was the mosh pits at the concerts.
I'll list the scripts from the sites in a while, is the anyway of just uploading emoticon plug-ins into the website server.

There just links to websites where I found them and are inserted as images. I think a plug-in is required for simpler ways of inserting the emoticons.
You have to create a directory called /my-plugins/, copy this code into a file called whatever-you-want.php, upload and enjoy!
Feedback appreciated! Maybe I can improve on this and increase my PHP/*press skills. ;)

Thanks Darren, I'm not much on PHP so I'm still trying to figure out how you've got them into you comments
I also met Cliff Burton three weeks before he died and even walked up to the SFX hall with him
Wow. how cool is that. Cliff was probably there best bass player and Jason was pretty good too but I just don't like the new bassist Robert, he just doesn't suit the band at all I think.
Cliff was the Jimmy Hendrix of bass, the best that ever was
Especially with his base solo's, they were something else.
You should have seen pulling teeth live, the guy played on for sometime, unbelievable.
Is there any recordings of him playing pulling teeth on the net anywhere? Did you watch any of the Dvd's like "Cunning Stunts". Jason Newsted was the bassist at the time in it.
u mean he was the kirk of bass,kirks alot better than jimi hendrix and its ironic they were in the same band
