I disagree.

On principle, and in truth.

1. You are cheap and a slight wimp, and therefore bungy jumping will remain off your to-do list. But I've seen you wedgy jump so that's close.

2. You support Man. U every time you watch or listen to a game they play against Liverpool. Maybe you won't cheer for them, but they make money off of you which equals support.

3. You have listened to top 40 radio. I've watched. In Luke's car. In Sandra's car. And yes, even in my car (because it's also JL's car and sometimes she wins).

4. Although I would say you have never been one to care how your style of dress matches up with the popular choice, you have clearly always shown a desire to dress well. As of late, I'd say because of the influence of your wife, you have started a turn toward more popular choices (take the peacoat for instance) and therefore I'd say your comment is a complete farce. Take this one off the list.

5. Domestic vehicle... who would own one?!? Okay, maybe you might in 50 years. We really can't tell what we might do in our old age and it seems all them oldies love th Oldsmobiles and such.

Never say never Matty.

Andrew,

1. I am not cheap, I am wise with my expenditures. How often have I been in debt?

2. To watch LFC play Man U is not to support. Support means to cheer for. It will be a cold day in hell when I cheer for Man U.

3. Yes, I have listened to top 40 radio, but voluntarily? I think not. I can't help it that my friends play crap in their car. Why do you think I was so stoked when you liked "Ten" so much??? Good heavens, your music in the car was horrible...

4. Yes, I have been dressing slightly better, which comes with being a professional. However, no one would mistake me for a male fashion maven (see: Jason Nassichuk). Thanks for coming out, though.

5. I don't care whether or not old people like Oldsmobiles. In the Bingham household, it ain't happening if I have anything to do with it.

1. amen.

2. Manchester United, the UK version of the the Dallas Cowboys or ... (here's where it hurts) the Toronto Mapleleafs.

3. fine you've demonstrated that you are not a teenage girl.

4. hey when you look good, what you where doesn't matter. i'm living proof.

5. as an absolute, perhaps a bit unwise -- there are always exceptions. as a general rule, smart.

The one big difference between the money-laden Man U club and the Maple Leafs...

Man U actually wins championships.
