  1. A priest was arguing with a rabbi.

    "What is great in our religion", says the priest, "is there is room for advancement.

    A humble village priest can become a bishop, an archbishop, a cardinal, who knows, maybe even the Pope!"

    The rabbi answers: "What about the Almighty? Can he become the Almighty?"

    "Certainly not!", responds the priest, "What a sacrilegious thought! No mere mortal man can aspire to become the Almighty!"

    The rabbi retorts, "One of our boys made it."

  2. Grandpa tells his grandson, "All you kids do these days is play video games."

    "When I was your age", he continued, "my buddies and I went to Paris; we went to the Moulin Rouge, and I flirted with a dancer on stage, we didn't pay for our drinks all night, and when the bartender complained we ###### on him.”

    The grandson thinks his grandfather is right. He goes to Paris and the Moulin Rouge with his friends. He comes back three days later with a broken arm and covered in bruises.

    The grandfather asks, "What the hell happened to you?"

    The grandson says, "I did just like you did. I went to the Moulin Rouge with my friends; I tried to flirt with a dancer on stage and ###### on the bartender - but they beat the out of me and stole all the cash in my wallet!"

    The grandfather asks, "Well, who the hell did you go with?"

    The grandson says, "My friends from school. Who did you go with?"

    The grandfather says, "Well... with the 2nd SS Panzer Division."

    I don't know how to post links. It's all on the URLA Facebook page. Choppy footage of passages from several games in early December. Scores are on-screen. Thought there might be an IT problem, but occasionally they post 4 points. For instance, the scoring in one game went 4-0, 9-0, 14-0, 19-0, 24-0, 29-0.

    Was the game indoors? If so, maybe they don't kick for goal, but award either four points or five depending on where the try is scored.

    Had a little wander up to Carlisle yesterday to witness the start of the new ownership, the American Piatek family, not the most inspiring 1-1 draw but a crowd of 10,500 and an extremely busy fanzone ,the yanks with their 'own the north' tagline may just be about to start something for the county 

    I went up to that game, too. BP was buzzing. 

    Yesterday, we fell to the foot of L1, five point from safety, after a draw at Fleetwood.

    But despite that, I'm confident we'll stay up as the new owners are making funding available to strengthen.  The club broke its record signing fee last week in picking up Harrogate's Luke Armstrong. 

    Good days ahead!

  5. A Royal Engineer dies.. and goes to Hell. Dissatisfied with the level of comfort, he starts designing and building improvements. After a while, Hell has airconditioning, flush toilets and escalators. The engineer is a pretty popular guy. One day God calls and asks Satan, "So, how's it going down there?" Satan says, "Hey things are going great. We've got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and there's no telling what this engineer is going to come up with next." God is horrified. "What? You've got an engineer? That's a mistake - he should never have gone down there! You know all engineers go to Heaven. Send him up here! "Satan says, "No way. I like having an engineer on the staff. I'm keeping him." God says, "Send him back up here or I'll sue."

    "Yeah, right," Satan laughs, "and where are you going to get a lawyer?"

    They also aren't interested in increasing the earnings of minimum wage professional RL players, they mostly only care about the big names at the top.

    True. At every increase to the salary cap you never hear of the leading players declining higher wages so that those at the lower end of the 30 can get more.
