  1. PS. An open air bridge match on this thing would be funny.
  2. Aberlour's Whitsuntide Sunday. BeerBiking along the river with the vehicle like this one, friends and 50L beer keg. Sport and beer and the same time, do you like it?heh http://www.morgenpost.de/multimedia/archive/00775/mim_bierbike_berlin_775433b.jpg
  3. This whole +- thing has a potential to breed a lot of bad blood in forums.
  4. Only here you are safe from ratings, votings and similar crap.
  5. I load all my 20 in a virtual Kalashinkov and run amok through the threads heh
  6. And? What's going on chessboard? Do you need our coaching? or six pack beer? or other doping?
  7. You compare the incomparable. Would you also say, no need for protecting on the issue of AIDS, because more people die in car accidents?
  8. This is a real killer virus,hundreds are still at the intensive care units. I am living not so far from the "epicentrum", so often hand washing and exclusively canned vegetables, its all we can do at the moment.
  9. Failed. The Congressmen are choirboys compared to the FIFA Mandarins
  10. What is the difference between God and Sepp Blatter? God doesn't think he is the FIFA president too.
  11. I feel there is some kind of conspiracy behind all these pluses. GWNN CODE!
  12. I don't think the last word in this case is already spoken. Merkel is shocked at the moment due to losing several elections in Germany. Her current schedule for the nuclear phase out may change in any moment, the next finacial crisis will come for sure and then the question will be: Are we able to go offline and who will pay these billions for it? A majority of Germans oppose atomic energy but this can turn if the costs for energy will explode. The german energy giants like RWE plans already to build a new nuclear plant in Netherlands for ex. New and old reactors in Poland, Russia and France will remain for x decades, so this german solo run doesn't make much sense in my opinion.
  13. Let's try to find a single organization that is more corrupt than FIFA, the real Herculean task!
  14. There were 2 groups of polish bridge players in the second half of the 20th century... 1) Hundreds of thousand (mostly well-educated )people played rubber bridge as one of the main elements of their social life, such a private bridge parties were a mass apparances in times (communism) with not a wide range of possibilities to spend a free time.. 2) 5-8 thousends members of the polish NBO who were interesting in playing competetive bridge. And nowdays? The first group smelts like the arctic ice. The life in the last 20 years is much faster, the competition in job much much harder, nobody has a lot of free time and there are 1001 more attractive possibilities to spend it than in 70s or 80's. The second group remains relatively small but is much more active now, especially the youth. In the sector college and university teams is Poland leading in Europe, I suppose.
  15. Mixed Teams - 800 EUR (per team) Mixed Pairs - 270 EUR (per pair) Open/Women/Senior Teams - 950 EUR (per team) Open/Women/Senior Pairs - 400 EUR (per pair)
  16. The European Open in Poznan/Poland will begin in a few weaks. I am just curious who of the BBF members is going to play there....Bridge players from all WBF zones are entitled to participate, any oversea members will visit Poznan too? :)
  17. Whalers would surely eat Whales if they were not be killed by the Hurricanes
  18. To beat both reigning World Champion teams in the same event, has anyone managed to do it before?
  19. "The die has been cast" It is exciting from the beginning >>>great 15-bucks-slam by Justin on #4:)
  20. I dont like and watch this contest but I like the people around it. They make a lot of fun on the Rhine Promenade at the early evening.
  21. To the first time there was no Cavendish thread in forums this year. Surely this has absolutely nothing to say, but I would like to ask generally...Do you mean too that this tournament has became slowly but constantly less important in international bridge calendar, among players, sponsors, public interesting? If yes, why it is happened, what are the reasons? or am I completely wrong in this question?
  22. Charlie don't surf The Taliban don't skate.
  23. It wasn't, it still works but under new name and with different methodes. No more waterboardings, but the tormenta de toca is not forgotten, modern bigots use it to find the one and only truth.
