    I'm planning on asking for a social welfare bailout for the wedding. I'll invite a million people and claim the insurance costs are crippling and that if the wedding fails then the economy will tank even further therefore the show must go on.

    cheers, Paul M. Watson.

        Don't you first have to sign up for a mortgage that you know you can't afford, before you get bailout money?

        Best wishes, Hans

                          Congratulations! :beer::beer::beer: We're having a slow "troubleshoot some odd stuff on the network" kinda day. Later on I've a contract to proofread, which is always fun. :doh: Mind you, we had a great weekend (Beth's parents came down for a visit, so there was a lot of home cooked food, beer and a significant amount of Wii-ing around in the lounge) so I guess a slow day today is not at all unexpected. :-\

                                  I got my taxes done this weekend, and I'm getting a total of $2400 in refunds (hurray!). That, along with the final check from my most recent contract job which I received over the weekend, will probably go into the car fund (buy me a new car and my daughter gets my old one). Well, it was 14°F (-10°C for you Europeans) outside this morning, and the temperature isn't supposed to get much warmer at lunchtime. This means that I'll be running inside on the treadmill (blech). I finally get to do more work on The Big New Thing™ today, so that's good.

                                          Congratulations! :beer::beer::beer: We're having a slow "troubleshoot some odd stuff on the network" kinda day. Later on I've a contract to proofread, which is always fun. :doh: Mind you, we had a great weekend (Beth's parents came down for a visit, so there was a lot of home cooked food, beer and a significant amount of Wii-ing around in the lounge) so I guess a slow day today is not at all unexpected. :-\

                                          Is that a polite way of saying you were hammered?
