you suck. as for the op, i agree. atlantis was good, but sg-1 was a bit disappointing.

that's just sad...

hard-fi - stars of the cctv sweet album. better than franz ferdinand, the bravery, the killers etc...

so what if iran gets nuclear weapons. do anyone honestly think they would use them in a first strike attack?

absolutely no. anyone who joins the army voluntarily are ****ing retards. the army is the world's biggest kindergarten; absolutely useless.

bruce springsteen - trapped. Well now I'm trapped, ooooooooooooooooooh yeaaaaaaaaaaaah!

it's one out of 23 players. please, get a grip on yourself. besides, ronaldo and eto'o were both selected for their countries and went to the world cup at the age of 17. if owen is injured, walcott is the only english player with extrordinary pace that can make runs behind the defenses. just like crouch; sure, there are better players than him, but none better target men. the england squad isn't made up of the 23 best players. it's not even made up of the 23 players that deserve it the most. it's made up of those players that eriksson think he needs to implement his prefered tactics.

eh, because they're ****e? crouch is at least a decent target man. defoe is useless and bent can only play well if the team is built around him. he'll never make it at a big club...

Actually, they have hardly played together in the CM roles and are likely to have communication problems, but they are good enough to overcome that. If it's not Brazil it will probably be Holland, although France could surprise you. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> with rooney injured, eriksson might opt for a 4-5-1 with both lampard and gerrard in central midfield, with cole and beckham on the wings.

red hot chili peppers - stadium arcadium a few absolutely brilliant songs on there. wet sand is, imo, one of their best songs of all time...

actors trying to be musicians or musicians trying to be actors?

mojito.

the fifa list is near irrelevant.

matrix reloaded, mulholland drive(all my friends hated it...) and from dusk til dawn. as for movies i don't like, but everyone else do: 2001, 12 monkeys, titanic and probably hundreds i forgot right now...

Not an economics major, are ya? If you pull roughly 1% GDP out of a country that grows about 1.5% a year, what do you think happens? In 2003, when tourism was lowest...the French Economic growth slumped. In 04, when tourism make double digit recovers in France, the ecomony went up. Not to say tourism is the only cause, but you can't smile off billions of dollars being lost that was expected to come in: according to this: http://www.worldwatch.org/pubs/mag/2001/145/mos/ there were about 75 million tourists visiting france in 2000. according to this: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/08/18/...ain636870.shtml the number of americans who visited france in 2001 was 3,5 million. you said tourism accounts for 8% of the gdp. then exactly how can you say that american tourism represent 1% of the gdp? hint: if tourism is 8% of the gdp and us tourism is 5% of all tourism. how much is then us tourism of the gdp... " as for your question, it might lead to a recession. not a depression.

too much work.

Depends on how you define "dependent". If Us tourism to France stopped, they instantly go into a depression. The country wouldn't be utterly destroyed. Is that dependent? From...other Americans. The point is rather simple. Re-read 2 pages. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> what two pages? ...and where did it say that without us tourism, france would go into a depression?

Americans spend several Billion in France yearly. Americans have traditionally been the largest group of foreigners to visit France each year, and therefor the largest single chunk of that 8.5% of GDP. When a drop off well over 25% started to occur (billions lost), what happened? The French hired Woody Allen to start promoting Tourism to France ("Fall in Love Again" was the catch phrase) and offered steep discounts. So I guess the French just really really love us or their just tourism whores because I somehow I doubt the reaction would be the same if the French stopped coming here. So, what were you saying again? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i'm still not convinced there countries that are 'dependant' on us tourism alone. but anyway, i really don't get the point of this. the us relies on tourism itself...

I think that's stretching it a bit. :D <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Utterly Dependent? Monaco. measurable chunks of their GDP coming from outside tourism? Well: That's alllllllllllot of money coming in. About 8.5% of the GDP of France. The percentage, while I'm having trouble finding it, is not even close in the U.S. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> notice i said 'us tourism'...

No, I meant their going to have money and start being more touristy, right? They might even become the new king of the hill. So you guys can except their money while cursing them out! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> the chinese never hurt anyone... <_< besides, i really don't think any country in europe is dependant on us tourism...

Yeah, if only some of your economies didn't depend on tourism dollars from the States. If only...... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> then what...? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The Chinese are getting more powerful <{POST_SNAPBACK}> not really europe's problem...

research polytheism or meditation(the buddism stuff?)...

Yeah, if only some of your economies didn't depend on tourism dollars from the States. If only...... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> then what...?

foreign policy. americans. as*holes. it's all good, baby...
