Answer: "Whatever you feel like cooking dearest..... I feel like a roast thanks." :lol: I shouldn't throw stones. I have unfortunately done something like this to DW - the Mistress of getting even. I only ever did it once mind you.

Three Holy men shared a house, a Minister, a Priest and a Rabbi. One day they decided it would be a good idea to purchase a new car. When the new car arrived the Minister went over and said a prayer over it. The Priest blessed it, and the Rabbi cut an inch off the exhaust pipe.....

Texasgirl, Although you are not my Mom, Happy Mothers' Day. Males generally are self-centred and ignorant of the needs of others. Believe me, as a male I know what I'm talking about. Your son at the moment is going through another stage of his development and believe me he has failed. I did...

MicheleMarie & Luvs, As a bloke, I feel we are caught in the old Catch 22. Ya Ma'am'd if you do and yer ma'am'd if yer don't. Here in Oz I use Ma'am out of repect for a lady (regardless of age)I do not know. Why? Well, if I use Miss, she'll say "I'm a Mrs or Ms." So I just use Ma'am to save...

Melbourne is GMT+11hrs. Rule of thumb, at present, when talking to a friend in California, I am " his local time - 7 (tomorrow)". E.g. Midnight his time is 1700 (tomorrow)for me. So, knowing that, local time here at present is 1014 (10:14am) so in Chicago (couldn't spell Illinois) it should...

G'day mate. What part of Oz is your friend's son in? We have more time zones than a zebra has stripes :lol: . On the East Coast, NSW, Vic, Tas are GMT+11hrs (daylight saving) and Qld is GMT+10hrs. We are a day ahead of the States and 1/2 a day ahead of EU.

2300z (1000 local) it is 32C and we are looking at another 35C+. I pity you guys in Nth Am at the mo' with all that ice & snow around, but if you wouldn't mind sending some over it'd be much appreciated. Some rain would be nice also as we haven't had any for quite some time now........

No worries JDP, love life, love my beer (homebrew).... :lol: Oh, and DSTB = Digital Set Top Box. Digital decoder for free to air transmissions.

XP for at least another 12 months......... Mind you, I went straight from 98se to XP....... Might wait for the next OS. :lol:

Was next year, was 2009, now according to local retailer (pushing plasma) and friend, has been put back to '12 due of pressure by broadcasters who are dragging their heels installing transmitters in country areas. In our area we have ABC & ABC2 (inc HD for both), SBS (inc HD, TEN network. The...

ROTFLMAO :lol::rofl: No worries mate...... Not bothered with the wide screen stuff at the moment. We've got till 2012 to upgrade before the analog transmissions cease . There are better things to spend money on (IMHO) like beer and planes........ Wide screen is a real ripoff, we're satified...

Certainly is.... Herbie: Fully Loaded......... You forgot your line......

I'm waiting for a while. " IT'S being hailed by its developers as the next revolution in visual technology - a laser television that will make plasma screens obsolete. Soon-to-be-listed Australian company Arasor International and its US partner Novalux unveiled what...

Avocado is probably of more use anyway....... :rofl:

Unfortunately I'm not as kind or as calm as you guys. Although my physical condition doesn't allow for a full on old time assault - perpetrators of such things against us don't know that so I get my own back with abuse and intimidation of the physical kind. I do not stop until the tears are...
