It's quite amusing, yes. [:)] We'll see if he makes a comeback on your last post. Personally, I don't think he will - he's a little "too married" to the conspiration theory.

He seems to not just be married to it, he's settled down and had a family with it as well. [8|]

Post deleted.
I labeled him as a troll as well. Then I realized that he actually believes that rubbish ...

I'm more rigid in my use of TGB. I only use it when the guy involved is seriously unpolite. Have only used it once [:)]


Edited: Since Steve edited the post I was replying too, I'm changing mine as well.

Edited2: Removed some unflattering words ...

The really funny and ironic thing about it all is that the subject of Japan, the US and the PTO war is so complex that any kind of generalization will never do it justice, including the typical White hat Black hat view that prevails on boards like this. Hell....I have at least 4 good books on the subject, including one recently read, and one i'm currently reading and i'm STILL hard pressed to give a concise answer as to "how did the war start?" "who's fault was it really?" "What was Japan thinking??!!"

There's a reason why the books on the subject tend to be rather on the large size.

I personally like plot world domination

I prefer nurses

After a stay in the hospital I told the girlfriend that I missed the nurses.

I learned right there that some things are better left unsaid!!

I have just exchanged my current, time-limited contract at the hospital for an indefinite one. Yay![:)]

Good news [:)]

Yes, congrats!

I'm sure those guys moving boxes around are as thrilled as we are. [:'(]

My first task as a "real" employee is to document everything I do in the department, for the benefit of my boss, who has very little idea...[8|][:D]

I'm sure they have some idea. But its probably more because they want to cut and pste what you write for their own purposes. [:)]

Tonight's plans include grilling some pork chops to go with some boiled new potatoes and a salad, loud music on the Bose ipod dock, an AE turn or 2 of the Downfall scenario, get a turn back to Dixie and a BTR pbem turn.

splendid! may i ask the content of the "loud music"?

I'll take a WAG and say its not French pop. [:D]

Glastonbury is bloody expensive. I know Mrs P wants to go so i was thinking of pre-registering for tickets for 2011. The 2010 prices are £185 a pop. At least the boy gets in free because he's under 12.

Disneyland? Legoland? Ikealand? Football hooligan land? [&:]
