    I was going to say that real men get the 'Meat Feast', but in all honesty that could be taken either way. So instead real me should just eat raw chillies on bread.

      Apart from someone elses' name, or Spike Milligans' "I told you I was ill!" I have just listened to a radio programme on BBC Radio 4 that had Roger Law of Fluck and Law (Spitting Image) fame in it. Peter Fluck, it seems has moved down to the West Country and taken up stone carving. He apparently told Roger Law that he was making them both a headstone. Rogers' would say "Roger and Out", whilst his own would say "Petered Out". So I was wondering, if you could pick your own epitaph (max 5 words), what would you choose? If I was a Buddhist I could have "Back in a Minute", for example.

Rogers' would say "Roger and Out", whilst his own would say "Petered Out". So I was wondering, if you could pick your own epitaph (max 5 words), what would you choose? If I was a Buddhist I could have "Back in a Minute", for example.

                                      Apart from someone elses' name, or Spike Milligans' "I told you I was ill!" I have just listened to a radio programme on BBC Radio 4 that had Roger Law of Fluck and Law (Spitting Image) fame in it. Peter Fluck, it seems has moved down to the West Country and taken up stone carving. He apparently told Roger Law that he was making them both a headstone. Rogers' would say "Roger and Out", whilst his own would say "Petered Out". So I was wondering, if you could pick your own epitaph (max 5 words), what would you choose?

                                        "Many : not conversant with mathematical studies, imagine that because it [the Analytical Engine] is to give results in numerical notation, its processes must consequently be arithmetical, numerical, rather than algebraical and analytical. This is an error. The engine can arrange and combine numerical quantities as if they were letters or any other general symbols; and it fact it might bring out its results in algebraical notation, were provisions made accordingly." Ada, Countess Lovelace, 1844

                                          Personally, I'd prefer STOP 0x0000007B (inaccessible boot device). What's sad is that is one BSOD I don't have to look up to know what it means :( Dybs

                                          I couldn't remember one offhand, so I grabbed the first one I found on Google. :-O I would have preferred 'missing NTKRNL' for my last words...
