Eggheads
This is just an 'aside' thread aimed at the Eggheads people who agreed to ritual public humiliation.

On account of how Darth and I can't remember exactly who was on the team, can you gaz me your email addresses so I can send you the application form?

In the meantime, have a go at these

I heard he's fantastic at economics.
I hear Alan Greenspan once phoned him up far advice about how best to deal with the US national deficit.

Funnily enough his response to legalise drugs actually held some merit
in the tax revenues that it would raise and the savings in police and legal system costs.

How unbelievavle do you find the anti tax rise stance in the US?

Monty, you're a bloke who's seen a lot, a lot of the seedy underside of life.
I'm sure you've seen throughout your years (and please note, I have no idea if this is true, I know f'ck all about you really) the desperation a smack addict has when he's desperate for the sting of a needle in his arm. I've seen the desperation as a mother open's her legs for a stranger for cash. The pure and utter desilute that is written about in fiction, which these kinds of people go through.

However, I shall now show you the epicentre of desperation..... www.holymoly.com/celebrity/blog/celebrity-big-brother-blog-2011-day-558846

"John of Jedward gets into bed with Amy. Amy says “imagine...me and John in OK Magazine!” and then Edward gets in. One of the Jedwards says “this reminds me of a crazy New Year’s Eve party. Yeah, us too, without the stickiness."

... can you imagine wanting to be in a magazine so badly you'd sleep with both of the jedward brothers?

I think Darth suggested me
but my sort of subjects only rarely come up on Eggheads

You'd totally anihilate Chris if they did, though.

NO
Because Memphis and Amarillo aren't states, fuckwit.

Don't make me throw you off the team.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Tue 23 Aug 2011, 11:12, Reply)

Is it American states or cities?

(Bazongaloid, Tue 23 Aug 2011, 11:13, Reply)

The Amarillo question does make explicit reference to Texas, though

I didn't look them up
But I'd guess Tendulkar, Ponting, Lara.

He does another quiz thing on Dave, where he doesn't have to watch his language, and he's really good on that.

But I keep on getting that person and nakedape mixed up, but please note, I am not a symbianist and think everyone with a monkey based name is the same. I'm sure they're all worthwhile individuals in their own right.
