I'm eating out tonight at a local Spanish restaurant just round the corner tonight for a family birthday. Beats making your own. :)

Nice little place, nothing flash but it's an old couple that own it and the food is superb.
 
Brendan Rodgers says that Luis Suarez is "Really chomping at the bit" to play on Wednesday against Man Utd....a rather unfortunate turn of phrase considering the circumstances of his suspension.

Quite clever actually. They should be able to laugh about this. It was so long ago, he's served his punishment, and it's not like he bit Ivanovic's arm off is it?
 
More on Breaking Bad, was thinking about something Schad said the other day...

[nsfw]You said that Walter's phone call to Skyler was about him desperately trying to influence the game in any way he can. While we could get into his conversation with Saul saying maybe his family's interests weren't 100% up to him etc, I thought that his card game with the vacuum guy was very interesting.

"Would you like to cut the deck?"
"...no."

It wasn't a no of authority, it was weak and defeated. It was literally turning down a chance to influence the cards he'd been dealt - which shows that Walter had given up on the view you had of him, as someone desperate to influence everything. Of course, with the end of the episode, we've seen that change, but I thought that was very interesting at the time.[/nsfw]

[NSFW]The ending was perfect, sets things up so well for next week[/NSFW]

[Nsfw] I can see Walt and Jesse teaming up. With Walt getting wounded and in the end dieing. [/nsfw]
 
I'll be playing it for the first time tomorrow. Got it for my mate's birthday and we intend to have a massive, booze-filled GTA session, while hopefully not pissing his girlfriend off too much.
