For some strange reason I saw this on ebay and thought of Jem.

Could of been the Sunken Cube

Now that's product pr0n if ever I saw it!   :shock:

Also, this has knocked one of those nuggets of stored trivia in my brain.

Yukihiro Takahashi was a member of YMO who recorded works with Bill Nelson.

In fact Bill then married his ex-wife Emiko.

I never thought I'd get to use that factoid  

Leftie here...

Well confused Leftie to be honest...

Writing, snooker, darts - leftie

Guitar, javelin, cricket, bowling (both 10 pin and cricket) - rightie

And..

racket sports, both, I have no backhand I just swap hands.

And total confusion when using a knife and fork, I never seem to feel comfortable even when I swap hands.

I had the pleasure of seeing John play twice.

First time in 1978 promoting the One World album (my favourite and has been a constant play from vinyl to ipod). He was backed by Danny Thomson on double bass. He walked on to the Leeds Uni stage with an acoustic dripping in bolted on pickups, wires streaming from it and the trade mark reefer stuck in the headstock. He sat down, plugged in and from that hacked acoustic and double bass came the most sublime music my 15 year old ears had ever heard, the bonus being it was delivered to the audience in quadraphonic sound, whooshing around the heads of all there from corner to corner. From the sounds of Bigg Muff to Certain Surprise plus others, and then finished on the dreamy sounds of Small Hours. It didn't matter that my friends Dad's car broke down on the journey back to Chesterfield I had just witnessed one of the most superb gigs that still makes me smile to this day remembering it.
The second time must have been around 1990 at the Leadmill in Sheffield. While this was a full band and completely electric John still had that vocal that was more instrument than voice.

Good bye John and thank you for the memories.

Mine also arrived this morning and I have the day off work. Thats any plans out the window now.

Many thanks to TLD & JJJ your outstanding efforts have been very much appreciated.

Right off to annoy the neighbours with high volume  

Narked.

Nah, mine's still not here either

Ditto   :cry:

It's not rocket science, is it?

never mind that...

Rocket science is an informal term for aerospace engineering especially as it concerns rockets which launch spacecraft into or operate in outer space.
Due to the complexity and depth of this area of engineering (requiring mastery in subjects including mechanics (fluid mechanics, structural mechanics, orbital mechanics, flight dynamics), mathematics, control engineering, materials science, aeroelasticity, avionics, reliability engineering, noise control and flight test), it is also informally used, much like brain surgery, as a term to describe an endeavor requiring great intelligence or technical ability. Often the term is used ironically to describe an endeavor that is simple and straightforward by stating "it's not rocket science" or "it doesn't take a rocket scientist". It is also used ironically to describe a person who is simple-minded: "He/she's not a rocket scientist."

I have a pair of black socks. I have worn them about 20 times... and yet still, when I remove them and hop into the shower in the evening, do my feet leak out little pieces of black sock material. Why does this happen, Frost*?

No brainer... leave the socks on in the shower.

Thats it...

.... and get a free Frost* Clingon with every purchase (while stocks last).


Sorted  

So free window clings go with every order wherever they come from

When  I were a lad, we just called 'em stickers...

No, you see, thats not right.

Stickers stuck to everything cos they had sticky glue.
Trouble is sticky glue was not an indefinite substance, so after a while they stopped sticking (or they where one stop stickers that you made the decision to stick to your maths homework book)

Window clings can be removed and reclung to numerous surfaces again and again, through new clingy science.

But....

"Push back on the bourbons till tea hath it's time"

defines the whole song to me.

I think it's because the board is letting you know that someone else has posted on the thread.

Or I could be completely wrong :oops:

dat boi speak da troof

Get in, not such an Onanist after all  

While we are at it. I noticed that whenever I quote someone's message and then write my own stuff and hit submit, it won't submit, I have to hit submit again. Don't really know what that's about, why it wouldn't want to post it right away.

EDIT: I tried to post "normally" now, withouth quoting and it does the same. It's quite annoying.

Can we have glow in the dark light switches for Mikey
