    1 Forgive your enemy nut remember the bastard's name. 2. Money can not buy happiness but it's more comfortable to cry in a Mercedes than on a bicycle. 3. Help someone when they are in trouble and they'll remember you when they're in trouble again. 4. Many people are alive only because it's illegal to shoot them. 5. Alcohol does not solve any problems, but then again, neither does milk. These should assist you with most daily decision choices.

    6. On entering employment, remember that it doesn't say anywhere in your contract that your job will be easy or fair.

      If I agreed with you, we would both be wrong. (Take it as another rule or a response...both work.) :-D

        Excuse me. I eat all my cereal dry. I particularly like crushed up (to a powder) Weetabix mixed with a couple of spoonfuls of sugar. :)

        Well yes - but that's because you're a Scot, and not allowed to deep fry the buggers on an oil rig... ;)

              That should read: TRY to help someone. It allows implies that they KNOW they are in trouble or CARE that they are in trouble. Quite often, they don't know or they don't care.

                    Of course - you let yourself become a target when you entered the fray on dry Weetabix. You only have yourself to blame Dave! ;P

                                  It was just the one that got stuck! Mate fixed it though, with the help of a tungsten carbide hole saw and 4 hours of mind numbing drilling on the nut.
