OK, boys and girls...we're way off topic.

Mark...if you follow the thread from a few of MA's posts ago, I just thought I'd chuck a bit of shit your way.

BTW, it's "twain", not "train".

Can't teach youse MOC 031s nuttin'!

Now let's return to our regular programming............:

I call it "senility". The rest of us are perfectly normal (except maybe Blair).

What the h*ll is this thread all about??Just logged on this PM cause I'm bored, to see what's up,and from the first March 21st thread to the last one by the Pixie lady,I haven't got a clue of what's being discussed!!Guess I'm an old fart with Marko,as my twenty year old daughter stated yesterday.But at least she called me a cute old fart before she ran to her room and locked her door.Ah h*ll,guess I'll go pop another cold one and try to figure this out.

Sounds like the best idea I've heard all day. Couple of hours to go yet, though...

That reminds me of the following story. First however I would like to mention that the post WW 2 generations in Sweden are almost fluent in English. Pre WW 2 German was the first foreign language taught in Swedish schools.

Anyhow thanks (?) to TV Swedish youngsters quickly pick up American English. We do not dub films but use subtitles. So watching US soaps also means language lessons.

This system does not allways work as can be understood by the following story:

Swedish Airforce Colonel explaining to foreign observers the fly-past of a jet fighter.


At the horizon you will first see a small prick (dot). Then it comes closer with a terrible fart (speed) and passes you with a horrible smell (bang).
