Houston now has a professional Rugby team and has set aside 3.4 M$ for a rugby stadium.
If they are any good, will England take back the colonies?

can they handle a game that doesn't stop for a meeting every 5 minutes?
OIOW do they understand that "scrum" in rugby is a wee bit different from those in project management?

And that you spell "ruck" with an "R"?

 How can they play a contact sport without a helmet and 20 kg (44 lb) of padding?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Which was my point...I was sat opposite a former US Football player who used to tell me as a former Rugby player his sport was harder...
|
|
|
|
|
Of course his sport was harder. No one knew what was going on, and they needed to stop every few minutes to be told what to do next.

... and his promising new student: Next, please![^]

If I recall correctly you were looking for guitar lessons at some point.
I've been trying to get a grip on the basics with Ubisoft's Rocksmith 2014. Personally I find the idea quite fun and addictive. Have to admit that I'm not learning too quickly but hey, it's only lack of talent. 
Might be worth giving a try...

Take it easy. No matter how thoroughly you clean, a major dust storm will blow in the day before Passover.

I was going to do some spring cleaning, but couldn{t find any springs.
I guess that goes on the shopping list.

an asstronaut, will his orbit be called a teslation ?
«... thank the gods that they have made you superior to those events which they have not placed within your own control, rendered you accountable for that only which is within you own control For what, then, have they made you responsible? For that which is alone in your own power—a right use of things as they appear.» Discourses of Epictetus Book I:12

Vacuum Cleaner will be an option. Gets rid of all that nasty space dust and micro-meteors that collect in the carpet collectors.

Have you ever googled a very specific error, followed a few links, found a relevant page for your problem, then work your way down the page, trying different solutions with no joy...finally arriving at the last well written (and winning) solution and realizing that it's your own post from a few years ago!  I must be getting old!
