It could be worse

Car Ticketed With Dead Body at the Wheel
October 21, 2005 5:26 AM EDT
SYDNEY, Australia - A traffic warden slapped a parking ticket on a car which had its dead driver slumped at the wheel outside an Australian shopping mall, an official said Friday.

The body of the 71-year-old man, whose identity was not immediately released, was discovered Thursday in a parking lot in the southern city of Melbourne, The Age newspaper reported Friday.

The man had been reported missing nine days earlier and was known to be seriously ill, the newspaper said.

Nevertheless, a parking officer who inspected the vehicle failed to notice the man inside and issued the parking fine two days before his body was discovered.

Actually it is entitled "try this out" so either here or there is fine for MrBishop to post that.

However, perhaps more appropriate would be The Entertainment Forum.

I'm a bit slow today

Well, I just wanted one thread, and that still didn't work.
All the potentially successful of my own threads either start major arguments that are carried elsewhere or are closed immediately.

But it's all alright. I'm listening to the comedian, Mitch Hedberg.
"I went to my friend's house to help him stay put. It's a lot easier than helping someone move. I had to go over and make sure he din't start loading boxes into a truck. He asked me if I wanted a frozen bananna: I said no. But I want a regular bananna later, so, yes."

Hey, TB, I think, perhaps, the new post in the session (which concerns breeds of dogs) will be somewhat easier. Try it out.

With me my threads just die out in a few days.

Ah good times. There's a Hapland2 for those interested... had a quick play around, and it looks as mind-bending at the first.

Well, y'r welcome. And since they (the Remaining Twenty-Five) are not yet identified in the tv-series version of LOST u can make up one of them as y'r character.

The membership drive continues...
This time they are trying to get us to pledge 41 dollars a month to get Placido Domingo's Tristan on CD and DVD autographed by him.
Why don't I have 41 dollars a month? WHY!!!!!?????

A fun music video - They're Taking the Hobbits to Isengard!
The song is stuck in my brain now

Hihi! I think this is my first visit to the new Cafe great to see you all again. You had me worried though... I went to the old cafe and it was locked down. Big chain wrapped around it. I thought they had it closed down on account of all the animals and funky stuff that happened there. *quickly glances around*

So, any wondreful news I should know of ?

I know what you mean. When I first saw it, I was pissed! I was ready to burn earth up just by my own anger. Then I saw the Tecup Cafe II, and it was all good.

Something I did, while messing around with the settings on a new program I downloaded. Cool program. The only drawback so far is that you need to know this confusing, super-sensitive code.
