If the shops ran out of food.?
Posted:
8/1/2009 9:04:09 AM
Luckily for me I live near the countryside so there would be plenty of food around.
My diet might a bit odd - something like pigeon/sea gull/duck with apples or blackberries !!

I don't make fun of girls with accents, I love accents, I think they are really cool.

tall girls?
Posted:

I don't mind if a lady is taller than me, I have always thought that tall girls are extremely sexy. Many seem to have a certain elegance and poise that made them seem more attractive.

LONDON MEET PHOTOS 2ND DEC 06
Posted:

Well, I had a great time and have now replaced some of my more dodgy photos with the ones from the party !!
Thanks to Misty, Magac and Mark for a fabulous do. The venue was easy to find by your instructions.
To all the lovely ladies I got chatting with: I hope I did not bore or drool over you too much !
Thanks to "Princess Tanya" for upgrading me to "Knight Peter" (She even drew a little sword on my name tag) - I don't know what I did to deserve that honour but it was nice meeting you.

Have you thought of caching some of your UK content in a UK based server ? It might ease the congestion a bit.
Hope this helps

How do you annoy junk mailers ...
Posted:
10/29/2006 12:16:59 PM
.. and have a bit of fun too.
You know how it is, you get up, check the mail and most of it is junk. The fact that they are wasting your time is bad enough but the fact that they are wasting so much paper (and trees) is worse.
So the next time you get some junk mail with the pre-paid return envelopes send it back to them preferably with some other idiots junk mail in it. This will achieve the following :-
1. It makes the act of junk mailing more expensive as they have to pay for sending the initial junk out and for the returning pre-paid envelope.
2. It wastes their time the same way it wastes your time.
3. The post office will earn a bit more cash and might even delay the next postal price increase.
If everyone does this the junk mailers might ease off a bit and give us all a break. We might even have enough trees to see us through to the next century.
So, how do you deal with junk mail ?

Can men do more than one thing at a time?
Posted:
10/29/2006 11:58:05 AM
Men can multi-task quite well but the jobs we tend to get cant be easily multi-tasked.
If two guys are heaving a piano upstairs, its a bit unrealistic to expect them to dust, hoover, feed the dog and yak the phone for hours on end !!

I had a friend like that once. I helped her in various ways, even lending her a bit of cash when she needed it.
Then one day I asked her to help me move some stuff in her car. She went into a rage saying what a horrid bloke I was !!!
I lost interest after her after that.

What Was The 1st Words Spoken From The Moon?

Alien 1: "Bury the monolith over there, about 10 feet under the moon dust. This will drive those stupid humans crazy when they discover it in a few hundred years time. "
Alien 2: "For a laugh, should we bury the dinosaur bones here ? It would drive them bloody mental trying to work out how they got here ... "
Alien 1: "No, that would be too much for their pea-sized brains to handle. We are going to bury the bones on their own planet, that should keep them entertained for a while. Hurry up guys, we have some bones and dead sea scrolls to bury on the 3rd planet and some channels to dig on the 4th planet"
Alien 2: "I fcuking love playing practical jokes on primitive life forms !!"
Alien 1: "Me too. Pack up guys. Lets go..."

B. I keep thinking this thread is about Linus from snoopy
You are surprisingly close, its about a system originally created by a chap called
Linus
Torvalds. He uploaded it to the Internet and invited his mates to improve it, so they did. More and more people worked on it and it got better and better. Its now nearly as good as Windows and its free.
I am using it to type this and and admire all your lovely cleavages

You need to use the quotes like this

Opentag - one - opentag - two - opentag - three -closetagclosetagclosetag
See?
Edit:
Yes, thanks. Do I assume its bad to put text between closing tags ?
Yes, it ruins the "nesting"

*WAR*
1. You know you lost the last battle so slope off to the spare room (You let her think she has won, in any case the spare room has your secret stash of porn and beer +100)
2. She's hidden the duvet in the attic so you get some towels from the bathroom (You also swap her toothpaste with cream for haemorrhoids +1000)
3. The next day you are so determined to win the war you buy her a bunch of flowers (+50 as an added bonus you give her a guilt-complex by telling her how you froze in that cold attic - but unknown to her, the porn kept you warm +500)
4. They are from the petrol station (No, you picked them from next doors garden +50)
5. You try the subtle approach, communcation, but realise you will never win and give in graciously and end up blubbing like a baby....... (You realise you can win so easily against anyone who can't spell "communication" properly +1000)

I have only been on here for about a month and the forum seems to be the best place to be for meeting people. All in all, I think it has got better - so far.
I also notice people disappearing like Circus Freak, Babe121 and BadPenny. I am wondering why they left.

My friend Jan played 'Cally' in the sci-fi series Blakes 7
My friend Teresa, knows Bob Geldof, in fact he lives in our town. I even went to one of his parties.
I spoke to newsreader Jan Leeming at a party hosted by Teresa's mum
I met Jet Black from the Stranglers many years ago about one of his inventions
I was mistaken for Paul Simon once.
