    What are the mice getting out of this deal?

    I'm thinking of setting up a claims business (no win, no fee) for maltreated rodents.
    I don't think the mice are going to complain. The cat just goes to sleep when they are due to give evidence and all is lost.
    I am not qualified to give the above advice!

    The original point and click interface by
    Smith and Wesson.

    Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

      True LG - I'd forgotten about that.

      I think social services should be informed though.

      You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

        you mean you have to be false ?

        I'll stick with the agency model thanks

        No, that's not FALSE for me - I m very social and make friends easily.

        No doubt if you adopted that demenour it would be FALSE as you are probably a sad little workaholic geek.

            Well, hard to say, but I will postulate the following formula...

            bm_friends > (mb_friends * 100) + 1

                  But when he dies he will be the richest man in the Graveyard
                  The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                  But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                      Yep!

                      My great-great-grandad was! He had a big fecking mausoleum!

                      Kids lounge on it and drink strong cider now - he would have approved.
