    I don't always swear in public, but when I do I make sure there's small children around

    A few of you who read the previous post have probably already taken a moment to figure out exactly what 7 letters those are.

    The heart of a Blue whale is the size of a VW Beetle, and you could swim through some of its arteries. :eek:

    Nelson Mandela was a terrorist.

    Trivial fact because it won't be significant for 50 years, and Useless because it's pretty much useless pointing it out.

    I'll trade for a Perth Mint 10 oz silver bar.

    Each to pay own postage.

    saying "Irish wristwatch" with any kind of speed is bloody tricky...

    Trying right now, if anyone walks in on me I'm gonna sound like a right tool.

    Try saying "thousandth ounce" like I did in front of the Board of Directors and CEO!!!

    Since then, I rehearse all my presentations out aloud. :rolleyes:

    haha, yeah I should do the same but I have always lacked the will to impress suits.
    Funnily enough on the subject of directors I was pretty late to a meeting. Directors sitting down silent waiting and wanting to kill me, and all I could think of was " what? just fashionably late"

    actually said it and not a smile was shown, just evil silence - most awkward moment of my life :lol:
    whatever, people need to lighten the fuck up. Just as well I'm a gun at what I do or they might have said something to me :p

    If you marry a man who cheats on his wife, you'll be marrying a man who cheats on his wife.

    Ever pondered on the difference between a million, a billion and a trillion?

    This will help....

    60 seconds equals 1 minute

    1 million seconds equals 12 days

    1 billion seconds equals 32 years

    1 trillion seconds equals 32 thousand years
