  • So, what do ya wanna talk about today?
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

its a well known fact here that Toronto is the exact centre of the universe!!

Seriously? I asked a couple of American guys, and they said that if you wanted to give the universe an enema, you'd put the tube in Toronto? Those lying bastaards! ;D

Actually, according to a local newspaper, ( http://www.winfieldregister.info/article.cfm?articleID=1687  )Winfield, Illinois is the "C.O.T.U." or center of the universe  ::)
I feel quite honored to live just 3 miles from the "center".   ::)   ::)  How dumb is that?

I don't know if it's "gravitational", but there seems to be a bit of "pulling" creeping in.................  ;D

Sadly I can't Jona, my son has somehow removed/destroyed the sound card on my home computer, and I can't access youtube via my work (defence department) compuker, so I'm screwed!  :P

Try this,

"Start"
"Programs"
"Accessories"
"System Tools"
"system Restore"

now check a former date to restore from,  a date which you remember still had sound on your computer...

Most of the times,  a fault like yours is due to some driver installed automatically or unwanted program update.

Hey, that FCC song has some dirty words!  :o

I remember staying up late on school nights to watch the Python. Better than homework. Benny Hill too.
I like Eric Idle (well, not his politics) and I just saw Nuns On The Run again. Robbie Coltrane deserves mention too.

Thanks Terry for the post!
