Oh no, I have given up criticizing anyone's choice of avatar since telling Muslimwomen I hate veils.
I like it when someone learns when to leave a subject alone.


HI Grey

Don't Americans say 'root for' to mean support a team?

They do, and at the seventh inning stretch it is customary at a baseball game for the entire stadium to stand up and sing "Take me out to the ball game" Now I wonder what the Aussies would be thinkin if they sang it 2/3 the way through a cricket or rugby match?

"Take me out to the ball game,
Take me out with the crowd.
Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack,
I don't care if I never get back,
Let me root, root, root for the home team,
If they don't win it's a shame.
For it's one, two, three strikes, you're out,
At the old ball game."

Nelly Kelly was sure some fan,
She would root just like any man,
Told the umpire he was wrong,
All along, good and strong.
When the score was just two to two,
Nelly Kelly knew what to do,
Just to cheer up the boys she knew,
She made the game sing this song.

Re: Dumbledore - oh my goodness gracious me!

it really makes you wonder. I have no idea who Nelly Kelly is or was but if you take our meaning into that little ditty, shes rather a "loose woman". haha (my apologises to the Kelly family) Actually the entire song sang with my translation is quite hysterical. I'll have to copy it . root root root, (fantastic) Lol Love The Grey
