  1. Probably. My good friend Murray described his perfect Edinburgh Saturday night out as 8 pints o'heavy A white pudden supper A taxi hame. A good chibbing was noticeably absent there, but I suppose he did specify Edinburgh itself, and not Leith.
  2. It's not even the most unhealthy thing that you can buy from a Scottish chip shop either, as anyone who has been foolish enough to purchase a White Pudding will attest. Next to White Puddens, a deep fried Mars bar is like tofu.
  3. You're what ? Going to reach in and grab my sausage ?
  4. If there's any of either of those in my possession, my cat is getting it right after I do, that's for sure. He doesn't need any extra incentive to act weird. I was woken up by a strange smell this morning, that for once didn't come from Julie. He'd decided to throw up in a heating vent, then come for a cuddle. I got him back though. I shit on his cushion.
  5. http://www.badgas.co.uk/animals/cats/sausage.jpg If there's any other out there that looks more like Bucky from Get Fuzzy, I'd like to see it.
  6. Now I wonder why you would there Because I jump there silly. And as you know, I am rather sexy.
  7. This has officially become the most redundant and useless thread ever. The marketing model has been established by these guys for better or worse. If you stamp them out, I guarantee someone else will do it. There's too much money involved for them not to. If someone else does it minus the obvious copyright infringements, there's really going to be nothing to stop them. I'm actually more surprised that more people aren't doing it already.

    The 50% off certificate allows you to deal directly with the factory. You can call there and speak to Ankie about it (813) 788 1910. If you don't want to do that, just send me your details and I'll deal with the order for you.

    Unintentionally hilarious post of the day.
  10. And I've said it before, and I'll say it again. We have business needs to go to web sites that won't work properly on Opera. So do we. I just set it up to identify as itself as IE, and I've never had a problem with it.
  11. The only reason I don't is because the cat doesn't have opposable thumbs to make and deliver stuff to me there. By the time I have got up to get something, I might as well stay up.
  12. This would be the consumption of gluten based products I presume ?
  13. This Brit will driving from the BA (Bay Area) to Eloy then. Does that count ?
  14. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Use Opera as a browser http://www.opera.com You can disable all but requested pop ups and set it to clean every single cookie it has taken in on exit. I haven't had a single peice of spyware arrive since I switched. The other day I had to use IE for for a job and bam, 10 data miners right there that AdAware caught.
  15. I solve this problem by taking my pants off when I get drunk.
  16. No chance at all I'm afraid. When I shipped him the Hornet I got out of the old attic, I shipped it to him at Rice Avenue Middle school. A shameful end for soemone that had such an impct on the sport.
  17. You're talking about Greg Yarbernet a.k.a sliderman, who is generally credited with inventing a slider system for square parachutes whilst working at Pioneer. He also worked on and designed a number of other parachutes for Pioneer, most notably the original Hornet. I had one of these and gave it to him back in the mid 90's. Greg also used to build ram air kites capable of lifting and flying a person. He used to take his then 5 year old son on flights with them. I last heard of him working as a teacher in Pennsylvania, so how he ended up in jail and for what I couldn't begin to imagine.
  18. My mom died suddenly and unexpectedly, and then my marriage collapsed at the same time. It gets a little dark, but the light at the other end of it all is brighter for all that. I'm happier now than I ever was before. I have better relationships, more honest ones, and my mom is in a better place. (Actually, she on the shelf in the spare bedroom, but that's another post). You'll get through it. You'll have the support of the rest of the community here for the times when everything else seems a little fragile.
  19. If you stop jumping because of pressure put on you by your spouse, your marriage will be shot anyway. Trust me on this one, I've been there and got the T-Shirt. You'll resent the hell out of her for it sooner or later, and it sounds like you already have problems which jumping is just the focus for now. Once that is removed, that focus will just move to other areas of your relationship and you won't have the jumping to go and decompress yourself with emotionally. So, my advice would be. 1. Stop jumping but KEEP THE GEAR ! 2. Go to counseling 3 If that doesn't work, get divorced, sooner rather than later. 4. Resume jumping either way. If you're a jumper you're a jumper. This isn't about the jumping. It never is.
  20. I still can't work out why he stopped for them. I mean, unless you're on a freeway with no exits in sight, stopping on a motorcycle is purely optional.
  21. You never know. He may be suffering from SSHL (Sudden Sensonuerial Hearing Loss). In about 35% of cases, the hearing will return over time. Here's hoping so.
  22. Go to http://www.surlatable.com They have them there. In fact, I was looking at them in the actual store last night.
  23. Yep, it's true. http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=514&e=2&u=/ap/20041209/ap_on_re_us/nightclub_shooting It's a tragic loss on many levels.
  24. I use Opera for all my browser needs. Its great. You can get a free version at http://www.opera.com
