We got different sports
It's true there are all sorts
But declaring one sport best
Will surely cause unrest

Boxing is for gangsters
Gymnastics is for pranksters
Football is for squirts
and tennis is for flirts

Baseball is for jerks
and swimming has no perks
Wrestling isn't real
it just does not appeal

Don't tell me about your darts
it's a game played by old farts
There's no talent in lacrosse
I just don't give a toss

Martial arts is tough
but only kids can't get enough
Fencing is for nerds
and ping-pong's for the birds

You've got a favourite sport?
I tell you its for nought
You try to watch Grand Prix
but there's just no race to see

There's no skill in benchrest gunning
and no brain involved in running
Mixed doubles may seem chic
but to me its pretty bleak

Golf is very boring
At tee-off we're all snoring
And there's nothing at all nifty
about a batsman reaching fifty

We got different sports
It's true there are all sorts
Support yours all you can
but not everyone's a fan

Ja, relationships are like the facets on a fine crystal or diamond. Those little flashes and glints of light can be seen from so many angles . . . and lost from so many too. It's often a cruel quirk that one remembers those little sparkles, the many snapshots thrown together and embedded in a disjointed memory matrix, an imperfect image of a perfect time.
Well, they say it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. My problem is much simpler than that . . . I don't need to choose between a sock and a woman because I am in the unenviable (or enviable, depending on your outlook) position of not having the latter.

 :lol:

Of course, you could take solace in the notion that suction can also be applied to one's emotional reserves and one's bank balance...
