Default OT Anybody Used to "Cruise" main drags on weekends?

That really was funny, I don't know how you managed to keep a straight
face when talking to the cop. As for putting diesel in the car, a former
boss of mine did that once (he was American) after that he got the nick
name, Diesel. As an aside, I have a diesel car and I'm very happy with
it.

Dread to think what happened...probably on par with the time a friend
of Mick's went to use the photocopier- they'd just had a brand new
state of the art copier installed in the office and he noticed the
toner was low so he refilled it using the supplies in the
cupboard.....it has to be said it wasn't entirely his fault when
they'd taken the old copier away no-one had thought about the toners
so he got out the one he'd always used and shoved a load of liquid
into a powder copier.....Nothing happened until he pressed the copy
button....

The resulting fumes necesscitated evacuation of the entire floor and
the fire brigade being called, a black goo that came out of the
machine ate six feet of carpet in all directions and when the engineer
came to see what could be done, the black goo had reduced the copier
drum to the extent it had masses of holes in it and bits fell off when
he touched it....

the next day a memo went round saying he was not to be allowed to ever
use a photocopier again! He was quite pleased about that as like most
people he found doing photocopying dead boring...

When I use the photo copier at the CAB I'm always having to nearly
dismantle the bloody thing to clear a paper jam.

Must be from the same people as the one where I work it doesn't need
an engineer in my opinion- it needs a priest prepared for an exorcism!

For women who desire the traditional 12-marker dials, the "Faceto," "Juro" and "Rilati" all add a little more functionality, without sacrificing the diamonds. Linda Boucher Cat health & behaviour 0 April 20th 08 10:52 PM
