Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Nice robot, Bosley, but I can't agree that one would be the perfect solution around the home - personally I think a nice wife would be much more comfortable for putting one's feet up on after she's finished pouring the beer.

i bet the robot would be a "handy" companion if you were watching some porn though ;)

Metal fatigue.

speed settings.

Jubilee clip for size adjustment????

I thought I lived in slightly strange world, but it is nothing compared to the one inhabited by OFCOM.
They have banned scenes from Tom & Jerry that show tom smoking, in case it encourages the children.
I can see their point. In the summer months, you cannot move around here for kids blowing each other up, like Jerry does, or hitting each other in the face with a frying pan.
Get real, for gawds sake. Its a cartoon and the kids watching it are obviously far more sophisticated than OFCOM.

Doesn't Tom's cigar then explode in his face anyway?

I seem to remember early T&J cartoons also featured a big, fat, Afro-American maid - bet they don't show those ones any more either!

And now Scooby Doo, cos Fred smokes a pipe!!!!!
AAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bos, all right, you win, it's the robot.

Although I think a pair of stick-on false eyelashes would be an improvement.

Al, round our way the kids have figured out how to drop a grand piano off a rooftop and have it only fall towards you if you look at it.

Very usefull skill, that.
Can they run off cliff edges, like Wile Coyote and not fall until they look down and then wave for the camera.
I mean, Tom & Jerry. What would childhood be without Tom & Jerry?
If they are going to edit out scenes that are not PC, what about the stereotypical Deep South Housemaid, or the gratuitous violence, or the hourglass females and the way Tom forces his affections on them with sexual harrassment.
Rape, racism and violence are now things of the past in our society and all the worlds ills can now be sorted by stopping kids having a swift Woodbine and coughing up bits of lung. You ask OFCOM.

I saw a lot of Wile E Coyote when I was younger. I think it's a subliminal message by Islamic terrorist organisations, telling kids that dynamite can solve all your problems.

I remeber being baffled as a kid when I saw the range in our local chippy was made by ACME. I wondered what the hell that had to do with catching roadrunners, and I never ate a chicken portion from there again.

LOL !!! - sorry, have completely run out of inspiration as am still LMAO after our little exchange on SEO :O)

There was a great thread for that kind of thing called "the more intelligent", started by that arch einstein, Driver. Now that was funny!!

I remember it well - your quantum physics arguments left me gasping for breath (I only studied law + French, so am quite low down the intellectual food-chain).

Perhaps you should resurrect it and treat us all to something high-brow :o)

Don't know if you have noticed but SEO is blue as I type.
This is a technical hitch that the management are trying hard to rectify and normal service should be resumed shortly.
SEO apologise for any inconvenience.

:o) Too busy reading about how rich I am going to get with SOLA - ADVFN fascinating (in places).

soul, you've not ramped sola for 30 seconds! you must be getting withdrawal symptons !!!!!!
