Dear Dave Pick the time reversal date more carefully. Suggestions include: Back at least to Tony Blair, not our Gordon "of the solemn countenance" famed for engineering bye elections. Or before British Layland Motors vanished for making Morris Minors with collapsible front wishbones. Well then back at least to Norman times, when French was the language of your land, or long before and the Eastern z was the fourth letter in your name, not s. Certainly back to a time when Vercingetorix got his come-uppance, and long before Mercedes bewitched Mr Benze. Or maybe back to Aleric and his Visigoths kicking the doors down in Rome. Any of these time choices would reverse the $$$$ nicely. Its Wagner's decendants who are killing off our engineering exports.
But Good things can be said for the land of my Pass Port right now. Chicago rules dominate the behaviour of our Presidential Candidates. And nothing compares in jolly England, to a Nick Manero Steak and Corn on the Cob in Conn., unless you mention Korma and Nan bread, so we cant go back to before the end of Empire. Then again we either go back a little say to $= 1.20 euro, or a very long way, cause in between all my fore-barers were slaves, to the english overlords following the trashing or Ireland, Wales and Scotland. Well thinking again, lets stay when we are, even with M$$, who wont let my 1997 spell checker work with IE6.0, so I can go to Bronxville and London for this years summer hols. Enjoyed your piece Dave. --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
