    You don't know me very well Griff, I NEVER, EVER sign up for ANYTHING (Except if there is free beer involved) - No good has ever come of volunteering for anything... Only a lot of unnecessary work and grief :laugh:

    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.

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

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

                            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.

                                    I guess that was the other way round.

                                    I think words like 'destiny' are a way of trying to find order where none exists. - Christian Graus Entropy isn't what is used to.

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

                                        A solution to a problem that doesn't exist?

                                        If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

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

                                          Probably... Hard to grasp, right? :doh:
