    Complete ignorance of cricket rules apparently also works.

      My heart is tender and soft, but I did not laugh as I have no clue what the score board means. It is all gibberish to me. Sorry no clue what Cricket score means. ;)

      Yusuf May I help you?

                      Imagine the hullabaloo if Australia were playing England (maybe the Ashes ;P) and the scorecard read Australia - 88 all out.

                      The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it. My latest tip/trick - Silverlight *.XCP files
