I bet these JetBlue passengers were relieved the " meltdown" captain wasn't carrying!!!

Or a cook in a fast food joint?

Nice looking shrimp. Is that a clown fish I can see in the background? You have to have considerable expertise to maintain a saltwater tank, don't you? I ran a moderately sized freshwater tank stocked with goldfish when my son was small - filthy things. I had to install an external Eheim Ecco filter to keep the water in reasonable condition. Then, one day, whilst I was cleaning it out, I found a load of fry inside it! We had about 20 survivors to nurture in a "babies" tank before rehoming them! Had ambitions to keep a tropical freshwater tank (Amazonian) but that was vetoed and I wouldn't have room for it in our new home.

It will be available after an 0900-1130 CET maintenance period according to this report: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-03-28-battlefield-3-pc-patch-launches-tomorrow

The only time worth concerning oneself with is beer o'clock and I decide when that is!

Canada won the shiniest boots competition too!

Happy Birthday, Rip'!

Strangely, I feel a song coming on... (I wonder if the guys have it playing in their workshop...)

Had to have fish and chips for dinner after watching that! No mushy peas, though, for this "soft southerner" and the girl wrapped it up in clean paper, not newspaper like we used to have (health and safety/ food safety!). Frequent flyer? With real beer on draught in the cockpit, I'd be co-pilot!

"Death is nothing at all. It does not count. I have only slipped away into the next room. Nothing has happened. Everything remains exactly as it was. I am I, and you are you, and the old life that we lived so fondly together is untouched, unchanged. Whatever we were to each other, that we are still. Call me by the old familiar name. Speak of me in the easy way which you always used. Put no difference into your tone. Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes that we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without an effort, without the ghost of a shadow upon it. Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same as it ever was. There is absolute and unbroken continuity. What is this death but a negligible accident? Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am but waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just round the corner. All is well. Nothing is hurt; nothing is lost. One brief moment and all will be as it was before. How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again!" Henry Scott Holland 1910

Was it a toe tapping tune? Oops...

SOB, I'm sure we'd all like to know (especially Frenchi) whether you ever tasted "Uncle Joe's Mint Balls"?! LOL!

I'm just grateful that, in all the years I worked for my last employer, I didn't own an electric saw...

Approaching this topic in a non-judgmental way, I consider it responsible to direct readers, especially those who are younger, to the advice accessible via the links below. As the keg betrays, I do consume alcoholic beverages but I am not a user of cannabis. There is potent evidence that weed/pot/hash is not risk-free and the accumulation of the drug within it in the testes (balls for the non-scientific) is disturbing to a man! The development of psychosis and schizophrenia should, I suggest, constitute a risk too far... Links: Marijuana and Lung Cancer (About.com) Cannabis and mental health (MIND mental health charity)

It's a common issue, Joe, as Labob says, when COD5 falls over at the end of a round. Typically, it'll happen when you don't have the next map in the rotation and a smooth transition to downloading it does not take place. You may be able to stop this happening by hitting ESC at the end of each game then rejoining the server from your Favorites list. The duplicate qport message only persists for a very short time so keep trying to rejoin and you should succeed after three attempts or so.

Ah, that would explain it... Thanks for the information.

No, Drama, I don't even have the option days after posting...

I can't find where one may edit an already-entered forum post e.g. to correct typos or add further information. Could a guru please point me in the right direction? Thanks. (Edit! This part of the forum seems to have an edit button next to "Multiquote"... Going to check other areas as I haven't seen this anywhere else.) (2nd edit!! I'm not mad after all... There is no Edit button in either Politics or Jokes. Is this intentional or something to do with user permissions that needs to be switched on by a website admin?)

Irrefutable proof that a good woman can bring balance and stability to your life.

I reckon it was a crippleware evaluation version and Hxtr posted so much that the trial expired...
