#3 Everybody gather your tamagotchis !

Real incident :

I met a puffy faced Japanese guy at a bar. Mid thirties, well dressed, neat and expensive accessories. He had been crying and his Indian friend was trying to cheer him up. The reason was his virtual girlfriend had crashed. A software error. And the company was willing to replace the thing by a download. But he was in a pool of tears over 'It won't be her !'

#7  It’s wreaking havoc on the Rugby World Cup

Didn't get there soon enough for Fiji.

That stadium with the field which rotates, I swear is cover for a Mechwarrior launch node.

#10 Eagles gonna have to do a heckuva lot better than they did against the Argies; though keep an eye on them too.

#12 Still getting up to speed; new to the game - caught Australia & Fiji a couple weeks back and got hooked.

Back then, I thought Argentina only did meter ball and cowboy things. Pool C is brutal.

Did enjoy Namibia and New Zealand; one of the best guts out performances (Namibia's) I've seen in a long time.
