  1. Aw nuts. We can't do that. I've lost the card. Anyway, you can still follow the link and get the shows. They're just differet ones. Come, people of the world! I paid my license fee and now invite you all to overburden the BBC servers as my guests!
  2. Walsingham replied to Jade's topic in Way Off-Topic
    I can't hear anything. Akbar: "It's a trap!"
  3. Why not? It's a perfectly business appropriate suit. With exception of black tie, it's rarely a bad idea to go to a meeting overdressed. If you misguage it horribly you can always claim you have another meeting directly afterwards.
  4. Yeuay! *Walsnigham shows evidence of a classical education by reacting to the picture with a shudder and reflexively brandishing a loaded bolter at the screen*
  5. Don't accept any contracts from women carrying a plumber's toolbox.
  6. OK, but I've only brought three balls, so keep to underhand lobs at half time.
  7. I think you can be fairly certian that the officers responding won't be allowed to forget this one by their colleagues. What teh hell has happened to the old British tradition of policing where an officer would turn up and tick you off a bit then send you on your way?
  8. I'm not really certain being a freelance gentlemen of the night would be that great.
  9. In slow eights? Not bloody likely, mon amis. Don't forget this particularly good episode will only be around until the end of today.
  10. Speaking of songs did anyone see that useless tart singing Abide With Me off a bloody ringbinder? Is it really too much to ask that you learn the words? I think it was a fething disgrace and she should have been chased off by a small fat man waving an alligator.
  11. Ditto. Luckily I have absolutely no idea what that means.
  12. Ah that takes me back . I miss that crazy dwarf, the flames of a deliberately triggered trap dancing on his hat. I found at least one of the Bab5 quotes: Dr. Stephen Franklin: "It's all so brief, isn't it? Typical human lifespan is almost a hundred years, but it's barely a second compared to what's out there. It wouldn't be so bad if life didn't take so long to figure out. Seems you just start to get it right and then... it's over." Lt. Commander Susan Ivanova: "Doesn't matter. If we lived two hundred years, we'd still be human. We'd still make the same mistakes." Dr. Stephen Franklin: "You're a pessimist." Lt. Commander Susan Ivanova: "I am Russian, Doctor. We understand these things."
  13. Only if you're prepared to outline the reduced Bavarian Autarch rules in full, Steve.
  14. If any of you have been wondering what I sound like, check out the 22:30 slot on Friday http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbc7/listenagain/friday/ for Giles Wemmbley-Hogg Goes Off. I'm not _quite_ that posh. But close.
  15. Man, that sucks. I recall dating a girl a few years back. She had a face like a renaissance angel, and the grin of Satan. That didn't end well. It can be a terrible thing, but a great smile doesn't mean necessarily that the girl is great.
  16. It's OK. I can't understand why they don't allow direct linking.
  17. http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbc7/listenagain/monday/ I really must encourage you loons to listen to this radio show for just this one episode. It is easily the best I've ever heard, and if you like nonsense then you will love this. I don't what will happen if you love nonsense.
  18. I recall splitting the atom at school, and the masters were all "It's only an A-bomb. Boys will be boys."
  19. What's that quote from Babylon 5 about being Russian?
  20. Tale's right. We have a lot more clauses which say that the cops can do what they want provided they can claim good cause.
  21. *sigh* such nice photos. I remember stuff.
  22. I generally agree. While I don't have kids I do understand parents can't keep an eagle eye on their children 24/7, every minute, every second. Letting them play in the yard while you're in the laundry room/writing bills/watching tv, letting them play with other children and parents in a restraunt or park while you use the restroom, that sort of thing. I can't condemn the couple in this story beyond bad judgement at the wrong time, for I wasn't there - perhaps they had a reason they felt safe leaving their child alone, such as being able to see their apt. door from the restraunt window or something similar - but if these parents were on vacation and wanted alone time that badly, perhaps they should have found someone to babysit and made the vacation a 'parents only' journey. I only babysit for one of my friends. And he's the kind of friend you'd hide a body for. in fact I have three of those. But only one I'd babysit for. You follow me?
  23. You mean, like, with elves? No this was a job for someone else. And there is no way in HELL it could be done by a machine. But it does pay very well. 3 days work will pay for my month's rent. *thinks* Why would you need to transcribe blackmail?
  24. They broke the doll to check the fake weapons? That's fething retarded.
  25. I think you might change your mind when you become a parent. BWAH! I already made that mistake. He IS a parent. However, after a few more years... Seriously, though. Parents these days lead crazy mad hectic lives. It'sa fact that people need time off. Shore leave. You get the idea?
