I spoke to Arnie today and, unless my mobile phone has the ability to contact 'the other side', he appears to be remarkably...alive! As are all his family. And his pets!
So, Xibit: If you start spreading rumours of this nature, be sure that one of other of the Forum members who know Arnie well, will be paying you a visit in the small wee hours and inserting the aforementioned fully grown pineapple into your nether regions!
Its a low down and dirty trick to play and the Mods will be all over you like a rash if you try anything like this again.
Annoyed, but now relieved Knight
