I quoted them because it's a common frame of reference, kind of like when I use "an eye for an eye".

Well, "Bon Jovi" sounds like some exotic sea food dish, and "Metallica" sounds like the aftertaste you get when your "Bon Jovi" wasn't cooked correctly. :)

John Jonathan, Christian and Alex all work for the same company I believe. It was a piss taking session amongst work mates played out in the loungs. Michael Martin Pegasystems Pty Ltd Australia martm@pegasystems.com +61 413-004-018
Yes, that thread was in fact a frightening window into our work environment... Christian As I learn the innermost secrets of the around me, they reward me in many ways to keep quiet. Men with pierced ears are better prepared for marriage. They've experienced pain and bought Jewellery.

At last, someone who knows when they've been licked in a fair fight. I would advise you to not lay on Code Project's floor. You never know who's been down there before you, or what was kicked out of them. :)

Actually guys, the correct spelling of the plural of a computer mouse is mouses. Anybody think we might be straying from the point? ('Good clip for Bon Jovi fans!') Paul
Actually the corrrect spelling is mousii. Yesterdays effort was a piss-take. What are you...stupid?!?!?!?! ;-) Alex

Actually, the correct spelling is mousimus. And yes, I am stupid, but it is a sore subject for me so please could you not mention it in the future. :(( Thanks, Paul :)

Just to be overly picky.... ;) "An eye for an eye" isn't really a Bible quote. Jesus was quoting something else (not sure what that was, but I'm thinking it was Hamurabi's Code or something similar) and then telling them that they ought to do something better. (You can find it in Matthew 5:38) John

Jesus was quoting Exodus 21:22 Suppose a pregnant woman suffers a miscarriage as the result of an injury caused by someone who is fighting. If she isn’t badly hurt, the one who injured her must pay whatever fine her husband demands and the judges approve. 23 But if she is seriously injured, the payment will be life for life, 24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, 25 burn for burn, cut for cut, and bruise for bruise. The Contemporary English [computer file], electronic ed., Logos Library System, (Nashville: Thomas Nelson) 1997, c1995 by the American Bible Society. and Leviticus 24:19 Personal injuries to others must be dealt with in keeping with the crime—20 a broken bone for a broken bone, an eye for an eye, or a tooth for a tooth.

You're right. Every once in a while, I forget to take into account that the New Testament quotations of the Old Testament don't have the same wording in the King James. So, "an eye for an eye" only shows up in one place in the computer Bible concordance I got for free. Ooops. :) John
