Threadjack -

There's a program you can get for Microsoft outlook called "I Hate Spam" which checks all your emails as they are down loaded for spam (funny enough" The good thing is you can bounce the email back to the person who sent it, and a lot of spam servers will delete your email address when it gets a bounced message. So my wife says.

I might be able to get it so I could either email it to people, or make it available to download of my website, thats if anyone wants it??

Theres a funny joke like that, a religious fellow asking god to let him win the lottery, eventually god says 'meet me half way, buy a ticket!'

I know i'm a little late on this thread, but here goes...

1, overly long threads like this one that take half an hour to read through

2, hurting myself in the name of construction (it hurts)

3, rude people on the threads

as a side note, colin chapman was once reputed to have tried to use cardbord sprayed silver as a fireproof bulkhead, so he could save weight. Needless to say the car didnt get past the scrutineers...

as for the yahoo locost theory group, some people are so anal. but its good to read for entertainment....





Please feel free in advance to: correct, update, ridicule or laugh and point at any comments made by myself in this post....

Anyone else care to vent????

Most irritating question from those who know just a little - "What kit is it?".....AAaaargh!!
"It is NOT a kit!!!" (RC). Ain't that the truth??





Work-in-Progress: Changed to Zetec + T9. Still trying!!

lawyers,guns&money......

WOW, what a fun thread to read! I'm worn out!

Good rants and peeves though.

Can I give one a try! O.K. here goes...

#1: Politicians who use "saftey regs" to generate revenue at the cost of our freedom!
Example: Ya,microchips in number plates are a great way to recover stolen cars but wait until we're ticketed by satalite for doing 50 in a 40....


Wow, you're right, I do feel better! Thanks guys!Fletch





I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal labotomy...
