RE: Starbucks now also in Holland
stramgely enough my local corner store sells locally grown coffee that has won awards world wide It's way too expensive for me so I buy another aussie product made in Sydney and more within my price range.

In praise of Oats
Oats is what the British feed to horses and the Scots feed to men.
What magnificent horses and what magnificent men. -

sometimes I get the impression this is the first Forum some of the mods have ever been a part of and we have to tolerate their teething problems.

RE: Do we have a Joke Thread goin here?
I may have told this one on the old forum but here it is again, it's my favourite blond joke.
This couple were lying back in bed after a rigorous evening and the guy asked his blond partner if she would like to play a game. "What sort of game?" she asked, "well a question answer game, if you ask a question I can't answer I give you $500 and visa versa." - "but I can't afford $500" she replied. "That's Ok, I understand, what if pay me $10", and she agrees.
So he starts with the first question. What technology operates a mobile phone?
The blond of course has no idea and reluctantly hands over her $10.
Now it's her turn - What goes up a hill with 4 legs and comes down with 3? she asks.
This has him stumped but he's confident he will get it and tells her he will have worked it out by morning.
The next morning she asks him for the answer and he admits he has no idea and reluctantly hands over the $500.
She thanks him and heads for the shower - so what is the answer he pleads?? I don't know either she replies, here's your $10.

RE: Do we have a Joke Thread goin here?
A rabbit one day managed to break free from the laboratory where he had been born and brought up. As he scurried away from the fencing of the compound, he felt grass under his little feet and saw the dawn breaking for the first time in his life.
"Wow, this is great," he thought. It wasn't long before he came to a hedge and after squeezing under it he saw a wonderful sight - lots of other bunny rabbits, all free and nibbling at the lush grass.
"Hey," he called. "I'm a rabbit from the laboratory and I've just escaped. Are you wild rabbits?""Yes. Come and join us," they cried. Our friend hopped over to them and started eating the grass. It tasted so good. "What else do you wild rabbits do?" he asked.
"Well," one of them said. "You see that field there? It's got carrots growing in it. We dig them up and eat them." This, he couldn't resist and he spent the next hour eating the most succulent carrots. They were wonderful. Later, he asked them again, "What else do you do?" "You see that field there? It's got lettuce growing in it. We eat that as well." The lettuce tasted just as good and he returned a while later completely full.
"It's fantastic out here in the world" he told them.
"So are you going to live with us then?" one of them asked.
"I'm sorry, I had a great time but I can't." The wild rabbits all stared at him, a bit surprised. "Why? We thought you liked it here."
"I do," our friend replied. "But I must get back to the lab. I'm dying for a cigarette." -
RE: What Sports Did/Do you play?
beautifully put Susan.
I'm the same but I was into swimming and gymnastics. I played rugby and cricket, basketball, squash, even rowed for awhile.
Now I sit in front of a computer and occasionally go for a walk.

RE: Skype
@unknownuser said:
Hello everyone,
Apologies for the delay, but we can now update you on the Skype sign-on issue. As we continue to work hard at resolving the problem, we wanted to dispel some of the concerns that you may have. The Skype system has not crashed or been victim of a cyber attack. We love our customers too much to let that happen. This problem occurred because of a deficiency in an algorithm within Skype networking software. This controls the interaction between the userβs own Skype client and the rest of the Skype network.
Rest assured that everyone at Skype is working around the clock β from Tallinn to Luxembourg to San Jose β to resume normal service as quickly as possible.

RE: Vista, should I upgrade?
I think the fact that Dell and HP have reverted to offering their new computers with either Vista OR XP says heaps.
