    They are mostly still here somewhere's .. though hungry no doubt , a lot of 'em have another place they like to Wotpp in, but now our spiritual leader has made a return, I have every confidence they'll be back in force

    Not too sure if we should start this up again, to be frank with you.

    Or would you rather I be Al?

    I could call you Betty.

    Admit it.

    You miss having someone push you past the tedium of your mundane existence to explore the limits between the sane and the incoherent.

    And as I'm a Quaker, let's see who can spend one hour in silent contemplation ??

    I spend a lot of time in contemplation, at my desk. Sadly, someone always wakes up me though.
    I didn't surrender, but they took my horse and made him surrender. They have him pulling a wagon up in Kansas I bet.

    Yeah, it always makes me unhappy when my boss insists that in exchange for my meager yet totally undeserved salary that I have to put in at least a few hours a week doing something that looks constructive.

    Ah yes I was very quiet, too afraid to move, yesterday evening, because (I live near here) lookie -

    Saturday, 14 January 2006, 10:31 GMT

    Unexploded bomb moved from garden

    Police and bomb disposal experts spent Friday night guarding a Birmingham garden after the discovery of an unexploded bomb. The device, thought to be a grenade or unexploded World War II bomb, was found by residents under a cherry tree.

    It was moved on Saturday morning and then destroyed during two controlled explosions at about 1000 GMT. The foot-long (30cm) corroded metal shell is thought to be 60 years old and was in R__ Street, St___. The area was closed off to traffic on Friday evening, but only B___ Street remained closed on Saturday. Army bomb disposal experts from Hereford were called in to make the device safe, and police are continuing to investigate the discovery. They said no homes had been evacuated.

    Go on then, I suppose a bomb IS a good enough excuse for a wotpp to have to resort to silence after all !

    Best bang you've had all week ?

    If, when you leave a place, you become an ex-ile, upon your return do you once again become an "ile"?
