Got any good quotes...

There`s a classic from Churchill (the dead ex-prime minister - not that stupid fecking dog from the TV ad) along the lines of
after been quite obnoxious at a dinner party, a friends wife said " Mr Churchill, if I were your wife i would be inclined to poison your tea"
Churhill " if you were my wife, I would be inclined to drink it"

I like to picture Jesus as a figure skater. He wears like a white outfit, and He does interpretive ice dances of my life's journey

So when you say psychosomatic, you mean like he could start a fire with his thoughts?

Remember that time in tenth grade when we got kicked out of class for playing with Matchbox cars? Who's the retard now?

I like to picture Jesus in a tuxedo T-Shirt because it says I want to be formal, but I'm here to party

I like to think of Jesus like with giant eagles wings, and singin' lead vocals for Lynyrd Skynyrd with like an angel band and I'm in the front row and I'm hammered drunk!

If there's grass on the wicket, lets play cricket

A continuation of the above quote that I had in conversation with a mate.
Mate: "If there's grass on the wicket, lets play cricket"
Me: "What if there's not?"
Mate: "Well... it's too late by then anyway"

I've yet to put this one to the test, but in theory it's the perfect chat up line
"If I were to ask you out, would the answer to that question be the same as the answer to this one?"

Wrapping your hands around a set of bars for a few hours is a lot more pleasurable than wrapping your hands round a set of tits for 10 minutes.

n.b. never say that to anyone who has just come second in an event they actually cared about, they won't speak to you for a week.


And the description of pike forks when they were reviewed ages ago on an evil sovereign:

so plush you could cycle over a granny and not feel the tins of dog food.

CX and classics fans in belgium call the cobbles here Kinder kopjes (babies' heads, although my dutch spelling could be off). no picking a line through them though
