No meat for you tomorrow.

Reply to Tom_Smart

Not for you either!

Reply to pike

Bugger.. I'd totally forgotten that was going down tonight! I meant to head down to the arch to see the draggon and maybe a couple of manga style girlies.

Tom - I see your beloved Liverpool has just taken a bit of a spanking in the audit report. You looking to make any money out of sorting out the housing for them?

Reply to audiovoodoo

No wonder Tom's happy.. I just checked and its the year of the Rat :p

Rats are incredible creatures.

Did you milk the rat? [/Cross thread]

Reply to audiovoodoo

Yes. Happy Chinese New Year.

As I understand it, the year of the rat is meant to be a prosperous one.

I've never dated/porked a Chinese lady. [/reflective]

Ok, Jebus. Take it easy. Not all of us are as appealing as you are: long hair, fine features, nice complexion with a dignified presence. [/guru appeal]

I do my best.

If it's any consolation, I only started to become attractive to the opposite sex after I'd finished with school.

I think losing 20KGs during my matric finals due to stress and not picking them up again had a lot to do with it...

Pretty much, yeah. 1.85M at 72KG is a LOT more attractive than 1.85M at 90+KG. The resulting boost in self-confidence alone was considerable.

STFU you simpleton. That is because we spend what we like when we like to. We do as we please, we're not interested in being a bunch of arse-licking Mancs. Liverpool is a land of opportunity. I've recently started a campaign to save a local community centre. I feel it's vital the kids have a youth centre and access to various advice services. Well that's the campaign bollocks. All I'm after is a large bung or I'll see to it fcuk all gets built on that land for years to come. Welcome to Liverpool and have a nice day.

Reply to Tom_Smart

I hope that bung will be big enough to cover the cost of a new set of wheels for that fancy car of yours... [/Logical conculsion of disgruntled scouse youth]

Reply to audiovoodoo

I'm sure it will cove a new car.[/fcuk 'em, I managed without a youth club]

I'm a Fire Horse, not a Rat.

 


THE

FIRE HORSE 1906 AND 1966




The Fire Horse is

animated and sociable. He has a wild side that leads him to a life on

the edge. Fire Horses are generally either incredibly lucky or ridiculously

unlucky. They love the excitement of action and the change it brings.

The Fire element makes them passionate about their feelings and they always

take a stand in a situation. Fire Horses are never on the fence about

anything and have definitive opinions about the world. Their tempers can

be overbearing.

I just had a look to see what I was and I appear to be a Tiger..

Slightly alarming summary:

Those born in the year of the Tiger tend to be indecisive, often missing a good opportunity by taking too long. They are also sensitive, deep thinkers and can be sympathetic. However, they have a tendency to be very short-tempered and a little antiauthoritarian, although they are respected by others. Tigers are said to be compatible with those born in the year of the Dog, Horse and Dragon.


I dispute that I'm indecisive.. maybe.. possibly.. perhaps.. :p

Reply to audiovoodoo

Tiger, AKA a big pussy. Seems about right to me.

They need to go anyway.. I don't even own any earbuds nowadays. The original pic was from one of the iDroid posters (anti iPod). I can see I'm also going to have to find a way to add the glasses... Grrr darned image change.. next thing you know I'll be changing my underwear.

Hey, WTF? I'm 1.87 @ 94kg. Woman dig it, it's like a buoy in rough winds to cling on... I use to be under 80kg, but that just didn't look right plus where I stay you need some weight to throw around during rowdy pub nights or the odd domestic dispute..

I have no idea why, but most of that 90+ was flab. I was quite chubby, believe it or not.

Maybe my body mass is just less dense than everyone else's.

Well, some of my weight sits around the gut, but not overly. Most went to my arms and shoulders - did 5 hard years for a Petro Chemical plant climbing vessels 100m up in the air, shutting 24" valves that had 15 years plus rust on them, loading carbonate powder in 25kg packs up to 4 tons by hand - so i was built quite good. Then I finished studies, got a desk job and then I gained weight as I entered the engineering world.

5 years ago I was 1.85, packing just above 70kg. I looked like Johnny Ramone in the mid 70's. Woman didn't glance at me.

I tend to over eat under stress while some people under eat. Stress just makes me distant at times and only for a day or so till I figured out what to do to address the situation.

It's all about interface and buffer capacity.

My buffer cap is very limited... Interface I lost in Nam... Namibia

It must be a bastage trying to get a mini USB connector to fit in a standard size female socket.

Reply to audiovoodoo

USB? Since when did you see a USB connector with 3 pins and 380V between the pins?
