"miserable, over-logical aspergic-leaning male with no sens eof humour seeks similar for long, boring monotinous conversation and help in organising CDs and Books in accordance with Metadata principles of logical cataloguing. Please send BMI, Height, age in days, and the catalogue number of your two favourate CDs and the DD numbe rof your two favourate books"

Now, there's someone I'd like to share an awkward silence with.

"Foxy stoat seeks pig"

Shame! If only you had said ISBN not DD.. I just can't take people being all vague like that!

I shoudl have.... what I actually ment was the dewey decamil doobry, but I coudln't spel that

Maybe we could discuss the problems with Dewey's system over a pile of pennies that need putting face up and the RIGHT way around..

I would have joined in but I had to finish this packet of crisps...that I'd opened from the bottom!

And for an ignorant, what does this GHOS something stand for, please?
Or was it GOSH, or GOHS?

GSOH = Good sense of humour.

LiftLiker, you are an evil, evil man.

How do I know if I have a GSOH..? Who am I to judge? I do have a smashing TAIL - but it's attatched to an ugly rat!

GSOH... can't tell if it's good, but it's MINE, all mine...

"discuss the problems with Dewey's system over a pile of pennies that need putting face up and the RIGHT way around.." My dream date One thing... can I bring my laptop so I can add the dates on the coins into my coin database collection?

Oh I AM sorry! I forgot about date order..

I have to be honest and say that I do spend the older coins first!!



Does anyone else keep the nice clean new ones that have this or last year's date?

No?

Just me then!

I've a collection of UK 1 penny and 2 pence pieces, one of each for each year since that of my birth, takes a lot of time to clean them all and keep them all nice and shiney.
Why is eveyrone edging away from me? Had an emergency this morning I found a CD out of order on the shelf, and had to go through and check and double check them all to ensure they were in the corect (artist/group name numeric/alpheric Plus ascending date first published) whys everyone looking at me funny

I'm not backing away I'm backing TOWARDS

"Various Artists" CDs are such a problem too!

& & index cards

I think a "GOSH" and "GSOH" are quite different traits... If someone has "GOSH" I doubt some will be too bothered about the sense of humour...

can I bring my laptop so I can add the dates on the coins into my coin database collection?
Yes, I think you should.. If I bring my laptop too, we can compare database file sizes!

I could show you my new database too, I only completed it last week; Indexing and cross-referncing all my clothes based on either colour, matterial, type of clothing etc, Actually its quite useful, I can think what item of clothing I want to wear, look on to my new database and it will tell me either which drawer it is in, and on with side of the drawer, or give me the coat hanger number, which is in turn referenced to the location of any given coat hanger number. Maybe I shoudl catalogue the towels as well then I'd really know where my towel was I knew someone once who had a 'gosh'

I knew someone once who had a 'gosh'
I thought you said "WoW!" not "GOSH"
