42? Is that the air-speed velocity of that infernal unladen swallow?

Well ir certainly isn't for a spit, at least.

In the meantime, given I'm in the middle of relocating, staying with my parents, trying to sell the house in Florida and rent something here, I have adopted Paul Young's song from the 80's

By the look in your Eye I can tell you're gonna cry.
Is it over me?
If it is, save your tears
For I'm not worth it, you see.
For I'm the type of boy who is always on the phone,
Wherever I lay my wife that's my home,
I'm telling you that's my home.

*shudders* Paul Young............. :Q

I do hope you don't quote too much 80's pap, it will end up in Kajagoogoo's, and you know that smarts ;)

Although, you have always reminded me of the bloke out of Classic Neuvaux, ummm, 'is it a dream'?



:cheers:

Dial +44 and the number...minus the zero that would usually be in front. But I'm not the mighty question answerer and he probably has a far wittier answer. :P

Or literally....from the UK? As in while in the UK? Uhm....take a phone out and press buttons. :P

Why don't you try dialing the number and see what happens?
So what if it costs billions?

Maybe start with seeing what your long distance plan is first. :P Or get a good mic and use the yahoo voice to phone calling thingy.

I'm going to miss my shiny little prepaid phone I got here when I go home...and can't use it anymore.

Methinks B77 should carry a health warning on the front page.

May contain nuts.

What's the difference between a bevel and a chamfer?

Not true Ang.
I just wanted to post a pic of a monkey. You ain't the only one ya know.

A bevel is an edge that meets at something less than a 90 degree angle, and a chamfer is the result of my fat thighs rubbing together, or two bevelled surfaces that meet.

I even know that a flared beveled edge is call a lark's tongue so there. :P






I love Wikipedia.

They say that when two people are married to each other for a long time, they start to look like each other. (Maybe this explains why my boobs are bigger now than they were 25 years ago. But anyways...) If I look more and more like my wife, and she looks more and more like me, will there eventually come a day when the graph lines cross and she looks more like me than I do?

Depends. I think Mrs. Angbasdil has taken precautions against this potential outcome in any case. :D I am sure it would be an honor to look like you after 25 years of marriage, but maybe more so upon your sons than upon your wife....:D:D
