Brenda, I hope everyone's ok at your office in Christchurch.
amyth, I'm so sorry for your loss.
It's not like she blew me off. She just left with another guy, that's all.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I have a fantasy that the Christchurch community will snap back in impressive time. At least, that is my hope for them.
I expect the community will be fine. My experience with the SF earthquake was that it drew people together. And I don't think it will result in the kind of depopulation that happened in New Orleans.
I'll be curious to see how they fix that cathedral.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I am so sorry, Amyth

Gotta go move some more snow around.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Totally random question: This morning on the way to work, I saw someone riding a tandem bike by himself, and he was riding in the back.
If you had to ride a tandem bike by yourself for whatever reason, wouldn't you ride in front?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
On a lighter note, have you ever felt your life would be complete if you owned a gold stump? [link]
Every day, man. Every. Day.

On many small two-seat planes with one seat in front of another, if you're flying by yourself you sit in the back seat. I think this is done for center-of-gravity issues. No idea if that would apply to a tandem bike.
