      mas·och·ism (ms-kzm) n.

      • The deriving of sexual gratification, or the tendency to derive sexual gratification, from being physically or emotionally abused.
      • The deriving of pleasure, or the tendency to derive pleasure, from being humiliated or mistreated, either by another or by oneself.
      • A willingness or tendency to subject oneself to unpleasant or trying experiences.

      So I take it number three is your posion? Unless of course your the "I ride the bus, in my trench coat, just a trench coat, I love the feel of vinyl on my bare as..." type... :eek: Actually if I lived in London I would take the tube or bus myself. Pretty pointless trying to go to work in a car there. I would however miss the freedom of being able to A: drive on the road or B: run down helpless pedestrians in side walk cafes. ;P regards, Paul Watson Cape Town, South Africa e: paulmwatson@email.com w: vergen.org

      Number three for sure. I leave my other dodgy practices for the privacy of my own home. (Yes, I admit it - I use Visual Basic sometimes) Michael :-)

              Currently driving with a Opel Astra Break 17DTI. Bought it last year and I'm very happy with it. Our second car is a Opel Kadett 1.6 Diesel with almost 300.000km on it.

                No gun, just the rack. Sometimes I put my son's bb gun up there just for affect. When I'm feeling really froggy I put my Confederate battle flag plate on my front bumper. Just doing my part to reduce the life expectancy of liberals by keeping their blodd pressure high ;)

                                      MG Roadster got a real slating in the UK. We have a program called Top Gear and most of the owners weren't pleased with the shoddy workmanship. I thought VW were a sign of class, but no, I've had a few problems buying my car from new. Lexus now seem to hold the marque of distintion, even over Mercs and BM's, well they do in this country.

                                          Here are some advantatges in having a Motorbike: - you don't need to open the window when raining (they already haven't) so you can smoke as much as you want (providing that you have an integral helmet of course and always if you manage to keep the cigarrete dry) - Doors don't freeze in winter ! (the driver maybe...) - But finally: you need less than 1 meter start-up to overtake anything (always talking about a good bike of course!!)
