    Bizarre. I'm hoping to be 3 sheets to the wind by then. Especially if I pull a similar pig with lipstick I ended up with the other year. To add insult to injured pride, she even said "talk about beer goggles" in the morning. I laughed because I know I'm no Brad Pitt either.

    Still, nearest I've been to finding out what sleeping on a waterbed must be like. The sea was rough that night I can tell you.


    I hope I never get to find out......

    Here's a hint how to win:

    Wait till 5 mins to midnight on December 31st, then post like mad.

    Those posting between now and then hoping to get lucky are eternal optimists.

    Last year half of the board did that only to steal what was rightfully mine in 2005 and 2006, this year I am taking it back

    AtW plans to devote his whole Christmas and New Year to timing that last CUK post of 2009.

    Another 'reset' of the matrix is coming.

    I've had a few occurances of Deja Vu recently. Can't remember what exactly, must make notes next time.

    You're going to need to outsource your posting to fewer sockpuppets. You'd probably have reached a million by now if you'd stuck to the one ID.

    I actually used to have an ID (on the old forum iirc) that had 111 in the name (PH111S iirc), because I used to have a Lotus Elise, Lotus model number 111.

    Like so many on here, the mods really shafted us on the post count by resetting all the IDs when they moved us over.
