ok, Colin Farrel it is. I checked www.imdb.com and discovered he's a real good looking young man with 28 films under his belt. What makes him a plonker? A role he played in a recent movie? His antics around a big city in your country?

No his antics in big cities in your country man, I know women loves him, 28 movies, not bad, the latest one is a home made one that just reached the news, in the Paris Hilton way, he drinks and smokes too much do drugs and had problems with the law on numerous occasions, have attended rehab and all, not a role model for new generations to come, but hey he is not the only plonker on my list you know just an exemple !
by the way I guess that probably makes Paris a plonkerette?

This is kinda fun, having traveled in the UK and worked with a couple guys from Ireland. (And having read "Trainspotting" ) I don't see Colin Farrell as a wanker. In the US he affects the "badboy" persona which so many women love. And many hate.

other cool words capable of faux pas(tell me if I get these right);

a rubber = eraser
suspenders = garter
a vest = undershirt
bird = woman
Bloody Yank = American who just committed a faux pas
fag = cigarette

windscreen
boot
roundabout

The book I thought was better. The movie was good. I love the guy with the indecipherable Scottish accent.

another curious movie starred Brad Pitt as an Irish tinker who fights for money(I forget the name but it wasn't Fight Club). Pitt affects a thick accent that sounds like gibberish. My Irish friend Declan says it in fact was gibberish but that the nomadic tinkers do speak a difficult to understand dialect.

Talking Jealousy

I get a lot of what I perceive as jealousy from my co-workers. A lot of unspoken attitude. Funny. Most don't want to ride in it because they will have to say nice car.

On the road I get a lot of challenges from BMWs/Corvettes. You can't race if you wanted to on California freeways during commute times. I have the most fun when people try to keep up and I go hard into a turn no brakes leaning hard on the corner. I am still on the throttle and they are on the brakes. They also do not realize how hard this cheap Porsche can excellerate.

yes good movie too, here tinkers are also known as nackers, one of Guy Richie Movie (mr Madonna) and called Snatch i think and the Scottish lad is none other than obi wan kenobi himself Ewan Mc Gregor.

one other thing about jealousy is that i have never given the fingers to any other driver more than when driving the boxster. hope i will not get finger arthritis as long that i drive a Porsche.
