(Very) Belated birthday greetings, Chris. I miss the daily visits to this little corner of insanity, but the extra money is nice..............

Thanks, SM. I didn't know we received money for avoiding the Fforum. What great birthday advice!

This is a difficult choice....

Wasn't it Major Major's father (in Catch 22) who was paid by the govt. not to grow alfalfa? He invested the money in new land each year and didn't grow more and more alfalfa until he became rich by not growing alfalfa.

I haven't gotten any money from avoiding the Fforum, but it has been suggested that I might get better grades if I do. But I figure that I'll just tell my professors I haven't been on here in weeks and secretly go on anyway.

... for which (if you were my student), I'd give you higher grades but secretly record lower ones.

I do hope you're giving her something more than this, or you might be in trouble! Virtual pie is no substitute!

Yes,

Belated Happy Birthdays to Antgeth on the 27th of Feb and mrs. SkidMarks for the 28th.


<got terribly confused here - this computer says its 25 March 2008 which frightened the **** &* out of me coz my wife's birthday is soon, and we had a major financial deadline on 10 March and I know we haven't finalised that.>
