I don't understand the plagiarism comment.

That is something a friend of mine used to say, roughly 25 years ago. So unless you know Brian and don't see what you are accusing me of.

I am of course plagiarising him, however given that this is a "quotes" thread surely that is acceptable.

Unless of course - Brian, is that you.

My apologies then, I posted exactly that line in a thread in the funnies.
Doesn't appear to be there now, I guess it has gone with VB's cleanup.

It was just that I was going to use it myself.

Is it plagiarism when quoting someone, but you don't know who?

Mary had a little lamb.
It ran into a pylon.
10,000 volts went up its ass
and turned its wool to nylon

An even better one (IMHO)

Mary had a little skirt
with splits right up the sides,
and every time that Mary walked
the boys could see her thighs.
Mary had another skirt
't was split right up the front,
...but she didn't wear that one very often.

:D :D :D

It would depend on what you mean by "applies".

Is applied, or should be applied?

I can see a little of both. :P

I think there were some "strong wind damage" reports across the line (Ohio) but just mostly thunderstorms here.

To be honest, I don't watch much television in the summer.

Shad0w and I are playing Hangman in MovieWorld if you get bored in here. ;)
