    smartie...

    Since you are so knowledgeable, you'll also know what is "fawlty tower" refering to. a hint: us with bolas de toro do not have problem with it. but, according to british chicks, british boys do...

    :p

    Sorry Walrus - been on a swift run across the Tasman to kiwi land, feeling a bit sheepish that I wasn't here to defend you against this dreadful Chilean chappie brandishing his 'three balls' (he did mention bolas didn't he ?):D
    But you've got to admit his play on 'fawlty tower' is a little gem. Wish I'd said that myself...:mad:

    Actually its petulance from folks that thought the left wing media could deprive 10's of thousands of conservative western FL their vote (in a different time zone) , with another BOGUS call.

    With DOZENS of recounts by every imaginable new set of "rulles" , the ALGORE cry baby still lost.

    Since then US politics have been in the sewer as the Dems were willing to not only GAME an Election but , with no plans of their own , are now simple OBSTRUCTIONISTS.

    I'm sure a repeat of their past electoral sucesses is just around the next corner , as soon as the Lumpenprole (any one not voting left) gets with their old 1930's message :

    TAX TAX < SPEND SPEND <ELECT ELECT!

    Don't we ALL yearn for huge punishing tax increases?

    Yea Right!

    Freddy, baby - let's leave politics out of this, shall we? It was just a good joke (actually, the whole election was a joke, but that would be bringing politics back into it, wouldn't it?)

    It's the Spanish physkick thing - an' to remind Yipster back there the stern of a Spanish ship; especially the type he was refering to is know by the Dons (not those Dons, Bergalia!) as the Harse-e-enda; think about compardres! Not for nothing was I a 3rd Mate on a banana boat for 14 months for nothing! United Brands we love you! :(
