THANKS ROS! You DO so MUCH for us! How did you know that the Google key was broken on my keyboard???

 

My argyle sock especially thanks you, as it was beginning to think that it was going to be a long, lonely night! Me, I told that Argie, to not worry and to keep the faith, as good old ROS would surely return!!!!!

Boy, looks like your "supporters" were busy viewing and commenting on your pictures yesterday. ;-)

 

Really like this particular set. Thanks for adding a splash of visual enjoyment to the MC!

You meet a Maori and tell them you would like to "dance" their Haka, you would probably get cold-cocked.

They do this ritual before every sporting event, against other nations. Combination welcome, but, yet a challenge. Opposition teams have tried various ways to minimize the effect. Stare them down, turn their backs on the performance. Nevertheless, the cameras are never off this ritual. Good on the Kiwi's. As long as it isn't against the Aussies.
