(ASCII a silly question, get a silly ANSI)

Maybe it's a recently introduced event whereby the Aussies throw in the towel and let us win something once per year ...

An excellent idea!

BTW, I'm just listening to the radio - does anyone know where and how the 'Trillian Trust' (Fight for Life - youth suicide) got it's name? Incidentally, I think having boxing matches in order to 'fight' youth suicide is a *really* stupid idea! What do you-all think? (Sorry for mentioning sp*rt).

I was just about to mention STORMS and a sunbeam came in the window to my left. Yay!smiley - star

Hey, let's be boring!

Sunshine here today,smiley - star but it's not warm outside. It's what my youngest son (Jimmy) calls 'lightbulb weather'. It's rained continually for about 10 days .. it never used to do that in Auckland.smiley - grr

My classes this semester start at day and end at *night*. Fun to walk home in the pitch dark, pouring rain and Mt Albert's famous pot-holes!
