Re: My Day/Your Day

^^ Glad you liked it BM. No, I did not do any Chivas on this occasion. I have stronger stuff than that coursing through my veins now; tell you about it some other time. :wink: Oh sorry about the Burberry Umbrella! I imagined you, and thought that was funny! :lol: When I was in England, I lost count ...

Run Fat Boy, Run!

People seem to have this craze for physical fitness these days. Exercise in moderation is definitely good for you, but pushing yourself beyond the limits can be counter-productive. I have seen men and women push themselves so much that they ruin their knees and hips. Friend of mine once asked me if ...

Re: Who Do You Miss?

I have to say that the mudslinging and the depravity and the diversity made DF an interesting place, and even the moderators were a humorous side-show e.g BM's little munchkin!
I would say, I miss the old DF. Lets have a rerun! :albino:

Re: My Day/Your Day

Yes, I know BM. I suppose I subscribe to the old school.
I dont know much myself, but now they say that you get more respect if you treat people like faeces.
Sometimes I am tempted to try and see if that might indeed be true?

Re: How Do You Know If You Are Aggressive?

How do you know if you are aggressive? Answer: You imagine an insult where non was meant; you are willing to fight on the slightest provocation; you browbeat your colleagues, and bully your juniors. You suck up to your seniors with the sole purpose of getting ahead and getting that pay raise/promoti...

Re: Would You Take A Pay Cut?

BM, thats the age old question, does money buy happiness? Philosophers of antiquity debated what constitutes a "good human life", inconclusively. When can you say about someone's life: This was a Good Life. Happiness comes from fulfillment. Different people feel fulfilled by different thin...

What real use is the MALE to the Human race? Do wars, death and destruction come to mind? I have just been watching the movie "Gladiator" on DVD. Scientific evidence has been accumulating that the Y-Chromosome, the ultimate symbol of machismo and that makes males what they are, is in a bad...

They were pictured, looking bored stiff, in Stanstead Airport, waiting for their budget flight with Ryan Air. It was nice of him to take her...

Re: Going Organic..........

BM...I agree with you. Organic is just another scam for selling food at the most highly inflated prices. Pesticides can be washed by careful attention to detail. The food is no different. Scientific fact! :!:

Even with GM foods (only a small number of plant species), there is controversy whether it causes any real harm. Some inconcl...
