    What does a Taser feel like?
    Making a cup of coffee is like making love to a beautiful woman. It's got to be hot. You've got to take your time. You've got to stir... gently and firmly. You've got to grind your beans until they squeak.
    And then you put in the milk.

    Fortunately for you good people, I'm off for a long weekend break today and won't have access to the 'tinternet. So I can say this forum (for better or worse) will be a FTT free zone for four/five days. :D

    How easy would it be to introduce Reality Bikeradar? Essentially Bikeradar, but run according to the rules of a reality show whereby if one fails to meet an arbitrarily chosen set of random criteria, that individual is SENT HOME.

    What we're looking for is an absolutely COMMITTED Bikeradar user.

    36 year-old Rotherham-born Alan will be teaming up with 26 year-old public schoolboy Tom.

    If anyone fails to show ABSOLUTE focus during this task, it could end BADLY.

    Natasha has recently left university and is having trouble changing a tyre.

    Last week Alan had trouble with the mental tasks. How WILL he cope with today's physical task?

    "I''ve got a lot of patience. I hope I bring a fresh approach to today's challenge"

    James should be in his comfort zone.

    Grandmother Jane has failed to impress.

    No, but I do remember my time in the Philippines(Navy). What a place(Subic Bay - Olongapo City). Words fail me.

    Getting a BMW 335d Touring delivered on Friday.

    I have chosen one with the optional "indicators" and avoided the usual "tailgate cruise control" system.

    Will probably still drive it like a t1t though

    Funny

    It was entertainment night at the old age home.. Claude the hypnotist exclaimed: "I'm here to put you into a trance; I intend to hypnotize each and every member of the audience."

    The excitement was almost electric as Claude withdrew a beautiful antique pocket watch from his coat ' I want you each to keep your eye on this antique watch. It's a very special watch. It's been in my family for six generations '.

    He began to swing the watch gently back and forth while quietly chanting, "Watch the watch, watch the watch, and watch the watch...."

    The crowd became mesmerized as the watch swayed back and forth, light gleaming off its polished surface. Hundreds of pairs of eyes followed the swaying watch, until, suddenly, it slipped from the hypnotist's finger and fell to the floor, shattering into a hundred pieces. "SH!T" said the Hypnotist.

    It took three days to clean up the old age home. :lol:

    Who Will Jesus Damn?

    Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:

    Back from lunch, take jacket off, unlock drawer, sit down, log back in, take lid off coffee, relax. FIRE ALARM. Put lid back on coffee, log out, stand up, lock drawers, put jacket back on, take coffee with me.
