    I like the R, especially when you keep it pressed. This also confirms what I thought: when pronounced with a British accent ARSE sounds almost the same as ASS with an American accent. :-) Regards, Alvaro Well done is better than well said. -- Benjamin Franklin (I actually prefer medium-well.)

    Personally never understood the point of this sort of thing - assuming that they are normally populated by people who are erm....'without', then what is the point - would a person who was starving phone up a restaurant and get them to read the menu to them? :confused:

    Yes, the concept of Sheol is similar to Hades in Greek Mythology. Tartarus being the place of Torment in Hades in Greek Mythology, the word is used in Scripture to refer to Torment in Sheol since the concept is similar and the New Testament was written in Greek.

    Some of you may have heard this, but it sprung to mind after reading the other one... A man is driving along a winding, narrow country road; a woman is driving down the same road in the opposite direction. As they pass each other the woman leans out the window and yells, "PIG! " The man immediately leans out his window and shouts back, "BITCH!" They each continue on their way, and as the man rounds the next corner, he crashes into a pig in the middle of the road. Debbie

    though I did read the results of a survey a few years ago that revealed that the vast majority of web users have never typed in a url - they either just follow links from the default home page provided by their ISP (probably unaware that the aol portal != the internet) or possibly venture as far as search engines. A friend told me about a helpdesk support call he overheard where the operator was desperately trying to tell the user how to visit the company's website to download a patch > type www.ourwebsite.com (no spaces) and press enter it doesn't work > what did you type www dot ourwebsite dot com > dot? yeah, d-o-t - dot > no, I meant the dot symbol huh? > you know - the full stop - the thing you put at the end of sentances .. and so on .. -- Help me!
