99922	2002-11-20 21:34:00	Thought of a few more things just after I shut down for the night: Terrorism - A few shows must have been postponed/cancelled in Moscoe recently. Also affect tourism - Bali. Weather/Storms/Sea - How many people were sleeping in the Cook Straight ferry terminal the other night? Was once trapped on Great Barrier on a yacht for a week (the trip back at the end of the storm has cancelled any further interest in sailing!) Weather/Storms/Rivers - We canoed down the Wanganui River the week after Hurricane Bola. Anyone going the previous week would have postponed or cancelled. River risings - was once nearly trapped (or washed away which ever you prefer) by a rising river caused by rain in the mountains. If we had postponed our river crossing by an hour one or other of the above would have happened (actually, we were rather lucky one of the above DIDN'T happen!) Weather/Fog - closes airports, postpones flights, diverts flights to buses (was at a conference recently. One of the speakers was diverted to Palmerston North and had to bus to Wellington from there. Arrived 10 mins before she had to speak) Volcanic erruptions - cancels skiing, ash closes airports (Auckland a few years back) Fires Floods other Natural disasters Mechanical failure - a train breakdown recently postponed my daughter's arrival at work by half-an-hour. Her car's flat battery put her on the train in the first place. Accidents - shall we mention Auckland's motorways? Perhaps not, I'm in favour of Time IN Motion. Power failures - postpones dinner, getting on the Net... Illness - last year's family pre-Christmas party cancelled due to a serious illness Death - It kind of stops things in it's track	Heather P (163)

99925	2002-11-21 00:19:00	Another couple: My apathy addiction meeting was cancelled due to lack of interest... ;) (OK, I know it's an oldie but I still like it) More sensibly, I have seen events cancelled due to an inability to obtain insurance coverage.	Shroeder (492)
99926	2002-11-22 04:26:00	IMHO marriage should be considered a sporting event, except that you never really get a sporting chance. Cancellation can occur for all of the above reasons, as well as for: what you did what you didn't do, what you thought what you didn't think what you said what you didn't say what you saw what you didn't see what you wore what you didn't wear what you bought what you didn't buy what you ate what you didn't eat what you drank what you didn't drink how you drove how you didn't drive where you went Where you didn't go Who you saw Who you didn't see Who you talked to who you didn't talk to What you did while you were awake what you did while you were asleep what you said while you were awake what you said while you were asleep (oh yeah!) In fact, there are only two things that you can absolutely rely on and they should be your rock: Everything you say, and everything you do...............will be wrong. Naturally there is a caveat, there just has to be in this situation: Anything else that cannot even remotely be said to be your fault is either the dog's, your mother's, your sister 's or your previous amour's fault. And therefore you are directly responsible. Of course that's just a male point of view and I could be wrong. Your yardage and frequency may vary :D Cheers Billy 8-{) ]:)	Billy T (70)
99927	2002-11-22 19:48:00	:O Geez Billy!! How many Mrs T's have you had?! Or haven't had?! :O :D	Susan B (19)
99928	2002-11-23 01:36:00	Ummmmmm............ I was referring to cancellation of privileges actually Susan, but nice of you to ask. :8} No, there is, and has only ever been one Mrs T, and if asked, she would probably say that some poor woman had to make the sacrifice and she drew the short straw! :) Cheers Billy 8-{) :D	Billy T (70)
99929	2002-11-23 05:19:00	On the local radio station (saturday morning) the cancellations were cancelled due to no cancellations. Billy, you were right on the mark with that list of yours LOL. Susan, I thought you were Billy's sister. Don't you get invited to the weddings? BALDY:-)	Baldy (26)
99930	2002-11-23 22:22:00	Hi Baldy Little sister Susan wouldn't be able to afford the presents for that many weddings and I couldn't afford the rings. Thinks ?:| Could I buy the one ring to wed them all? :x I left off the killer marital failing though ]:) I got into deep strife once for what my wife dreamt I did :( That is the world's original marital no-win situation, I mean, I wasn't even there at the time, I was at home in bed :| Cheers Billy 8-{) :D	Billy T (70)
