    Check your credit card statement - it's the one marked "personal services". Either that, or you signed up for a Premium account on Workspaces[^]

                You signed up for CodeProject - and I certainly didn't get any free beer when I joined! (I'd have loads of sock puppets if you did!)

                  Don't impersonate the staff! We all know that Sean does the debt collecting duties over at CP Towers. To date, no debtor has ever fallen behind after a greased up visit from the Man who put the 'Man' into 'Mankini'. Not to mention what he'll do to you with his tassels...

                      We held a vote whilst you weren't here and almost all of us decided that you were a premium member. Some even suggested the premier member, but personally I think that is a little over the top.

                              The main problem here is that MEMBER is a euphemism for PENIS.

                                    If you stopped trying so hard, then you wouldn't keep getting the visits. You have no one to blame but yourself.

                                        What does that entail? And why can't I remember having paid the premium membership fee? :doh:

                                        In your profile you can click on the icon and it explains what is required.

                                        There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

                                          We held a vote whilst you weren't here and almost all of us decided that you were a premium member. Some even suggested the premier member, but personally I think that is a little over the top.

                                          Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

                                          I'm not so sure that it would be over the top actually. Every time I look at my reflection in the mirror, I have to try my hardest not to burst out in song[^]. I don't have the talent of Barbra, you see... I'm more like Ryan O'Neal... :rolleyes: :laugh:
