...you're telling me your load is too big for the servers? o_O



In a related vein... I have been using Lynx shower gel and Lynx 
deodorant for the past year and a half now. So far not one single female 
has attempted to make crazed pashionate love to me.

I want my money back! :-P

"Ah Lynx - the smell of teenage desperation" makes me want to sneeze...  
then again pretty much everything in the dank dark men's section makes me  
want to sneeze. What do these companies do stick some scent in a bottle of  
some astringent and then try to market it to men as 'macho'?

You mean you paid for that stuff ;-)

Desperation... sure.

Teenage? Not so much... now, anyway...

You forget, I live in *Utah* - the natives here speak funny.  I'm used to 
it. ;-)

    Heh. Yes, well, crap happens, and in my case, I couldn't ride a 
motorbike again. And I didn't, and haven't, since. Even though it was heaven 
for me as a young guy. Boys will always be boys though, and even now I'm 
tempted at an older age.  ;)

Heh the sort of thinking that comes from living on a canal town and having  
a canal-boat builder just over the road. On the downside the permanent  
moorings have gone up in price at the moment because British Waterways are  
trying out a new system of auctions in order "to gauge the true market  
value of them" one of the reasons houses with attached mooring rights are  
so popular.
