    So, I'm in town and Lorna is coming over and we plan to go down to the Pier and have a nice dinner. It's blowing a gale and raining - that's a negatory then. We decide to order in. She will have vegie samosas and chicken laksa with chapatis, rice. Asks me what I want (It's her buy) "I'll have a maxi Supreme with anchovies" "You can't eat that - it's meant for more than one person you know !" "I know, I'll eat what I can and put the rest in the fridge for breakfast" "Ooooh yucky, that's gross - " "I'm not heating it up, cold is nice" "Bleah, yuck" etc etc etc with gagging noises I mean, what part of Yum doesn't she get ? I offered her some but that just resulted in more of the gagging sound effects. Jeeze.

    Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them along with this slice of humble pie, that comes direct from the oven of shame, set at gas mark 'egg on your face'.

        I'm getting better at second guessing them as I get very older. And it's not yuck at all. Stop that damn gagging noise.

          The problem is that men often try to look for logic and there often isn't which leads to every problem under the sun between men and women. Men can be illogical but it's as a candle to the sun of women's illogic-ness. The sooner we stop trying to find rhyme or reason and just accept most of it makes no sense not even a self consistent weird kind of sense then the happier everyone is.

            So, in the quest for knowledge I asked our receptionist what she thought of cold pizza for breakfast. She totally agreed saying "it's great hangover food" and then recounted: "I remember watching some guys waking up on the floor and rolling over to reach for the leftover pizza, then tapping the piece grabbed to shake off the ants and then eating it" NOW THAT'S YUCK ! Thanks Tracey, urk.

              Wow, that's pretty revealing on her part actually. A real partier by the sounds of it.

                Ah. The "You have to think the same as me and want everything the same as me or we're not a perfect match and you don't love me" syndrome. It only affects the female of the species.

                Tell her it doesn't make you fart if you eat it cold, and she'll never eat it hot again -- she'll always be "busy" ("I just have to finish this") when it arrives.

                    If it was god who played that little prank on us, then I hope it's at least as amusing to watch as he intended.

                    A while ago he asked me what he should have printed on my business cards. I said 'Wizard'. I read books which nobody else understand. Then I do something which nobody understands. After that the computer does something which nobody understands. When asked, I say things about the results which nobody understand. But everybody expects miracles from me on a regular basis. Looks to me like the classical definition of a wizard.

                        Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.

                              That's a shame - I was hoping somebody could actually quantify it for once. Of course, you'd have to invent a whole new form of hypermathematics to represent it, but it would be interesting to see.

                                OK, about three times. But its enough to drive you temporarially insane and start biting the heads off rhododendrums or some such.

                                    If it was god who played that little prank on us, then I hope it's at least as amusing to watch as he intended.

                                    A while ago he asked me what he should have printed on my business cards. I said 'Wizard'. I read books which nobody else understand. Then I do something which nobody understands. After that the computer does something which nobody understands. When asked, I say things about the results which nobody understand. But everybody expects miracles from me on a regular basis. Looks to me like the classical definition of a wizard.

                                        So, I'm in town and Lorna is coming over and we plan to go down to the Pier and have a nice dinner. It's blowing a gale and raining - that's a negatory then. We decide to order in. She will have vegie samosas and chicken laksa with chapatis, rice. Asks me what I want (It's her buy) "I'll have a maxi Supreme with anchovies" "You can't eat that - it's meant for more than one person you know !" "I know, I'll eat what I can and put the rest in the fridge for breakfast" "Ooooh yucky, that's gross - " "I'm not heating it up, cold is nice" "Bleah, yuck" etc etc etc with gagging noises I mean, what part of Yum doesn't she get ? I offered her some but that just resulted in more of the gagging sound effects. Jeeze.

                                        Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them along with this slice of humble pie, that comes direct from the oven of shame, set at gas mark 'egg on your face'.

                                        When I was 19 and at Uni I had to do a week of resits having put no effort or attendance at all into my first year. This was at Lancaster, and there was a near by pizza place that delivered to the Uni where I was in halls of residence for the duration. So I ordered an 18 inch pizza, the largest they did, had a couple of slices and put the rest in the box on top of the wardrobe. Each day I had a couple more slices. Cold pizza when the cheese has set is great.

                                        Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

                                          That's a shame - I was hoping somebody could actually quantify it for once. Of course, you'd have to invent a whole new form of hypermathematics to represent it, but it would be interesting to see.

                                          I have CDO, it's OCD with the letters in the right order; just as they ruddy well should be

                                          And once we have worked out the principles of female logic, we go and cast it in silicon and transistors, put together a new processor and then... what?
