My great aunt was a very very old virging when she died.

Even my mother, who loved her dearly, said it was a shame that she was being "returned unopened".

I didn't want to laugh but really couldn't help myself.

Dunno if they are really robots though.

They are great wee things and no doubt bloody god sends to the users but don't seem to be robots.

The ibot is in service to day and a real boon to the wheel chair bound.

sorry to post the advert but it is the clearest viseo on YT I couyld find.

Ever occured that you guys aren't very good at this lark?

Just as thought

where was there any racism?

I know it would make it all very cosy if he was a one dimensional baddy but this is clutching at the rumour of straws.

These people are idiots.

I recognise that this is a pretty unsophisticated argument.

But it is still bang on accurate.

They are idiots.

Once again I am amazed to find myself agreeing with ted.

MARS IT IS!!

good call there ted.

Hooray!! terrifyingly lardy American food that has not got chocolate or frosting.

Thanks for this savoury heart hand brake.

See I can like US recipes, just hold the sugar is all.

Actually this looks great, though I would take about4 aspirin before eating it.... and have the paramedics on the speed dial.... and leave the front door open.

Actually in 1946 this was probably the very height of luxury in war torn and bedraggled old Blighty.

my thoughts exactly Neatoramawontsendmeapassword

But more than likely it is a side show prank much like bleeding staues and Allah in an Aubergine/eggplant

On the site for the Elevator/Lift hack someone said they'd tried it twice and it worked a treat.

This would have been so useful when I worked at the 11th floor.

I will have to try this some time.

It is quite like the old safe hack, where a lot of people never re set the factory default safe combination.

"They tend to be upper-income, middle-aged, conservative males"

Well there's a big fat surprise.

ScottyA If you are going to indulge in parody old bean you will need to get your terminology correct.

It's a wireless, never a radio.

@ nach #1

you wrote

"If you’re young and you “save for a rainy day,” you’re likely to be affected as your savings tend to be in more high risk assets such as domestic and international stocks."

No I think most peoples savings are in SAVINGS accounts.

The money you are talking about is investments, which is quite a different matter.

Over the last 15 years I have seeen people think themselves awfully clever for putting their superannuation to "work" in the market.

Not a one of them has a pot to p*ss in now.

The market ate all their pensions despit, but more likely because, they were being administered by get rich quick financial industry simpletons who were at no point interested in anything besides feathering their own nests.

I am debt free with money in the bank, the only way the CC will affect me is if all the folks in the world suddenly stop buying Video games.

As for the bail out...I'm glad it didn't happen, as the Reps were just going to hand over the money to the bum clowns of wall street who were goig to administer them with that now well recognised ability of theirs.

Oh and charge you for the privelidge.

Also the money would never have been paid back. They'd have just fouled the process in the courts for a decade or so until they got the right puppet in the White house who would cancel the debt.

Don't think so? 25 years in court and Exxon have been absolved of their debt over the fines for the Valdez.

Ok, I didn't clock the header and only looked at the ghost towns.

Having met some of the SA front line state military personel, and a few ex Rhodesian Scouts, I don't think sending these guys anywhere except to PTSD councilling would be a good idea.

They were all white fellas and all seemed to have a few screws loose up stairs.

Oh and as for the Churches bank rolling this idea, wouldn't the Thou Shalt Not Kill bit sort of stymy them?
