I guess you got confused when you were looking to post a difinition of "tendency" and instead post a difintion of "conjunction" instead.Nice try at misdirection. But that's what you usually attempt. -

I can't wait to fly it.I just wish we had ordered some.I'm happy he won't be flying it because it leaves one more seat for me. Engine the size of a cement truck?What an uninformed idiot Paul Hayess, safety director at U.K. aviation consultants Ascend Worldwide is.Possibly his coke-bottle think eyeglasses made it appear that size. Krasting is a hedge fund manager.His predictions were not predictions at all-he just repeated what the majority had already said.He needs to stick with hedge fund management on his blogs-maybe something he's familiar with. -

Exactly how many USA World Cup matches or WC qualifiers have you attended in person?That's what I thought-ZERO! I'll be happy to give you an estimate of how many qualifiers I've watched in person but it'll only be an estimate because I've stopped counting.I can give you the exact number on WC matches though. Get back to me as soon as you've watched them play in person (or even on tv) and can form an educated opinion. Stick to what you know,huh. Actually,I feel that he's not coached them to their potential.He'll be in over his head in the PL. -
