I'm addicted to caffeine. You should see it at interval and lunch at Columbo/Gloucester. Whole class full of g33k's go down and get their caffeine fixes.

76865 2002-09-07 05:31:00 Cripes you're an acid little sod sometimes Elwin. There seems to be a sizable chip drifting around somewhere near one of your shoulders.

Lighten up & loosen up, Susan was right, you are a tad hypocritical. I seem to recall that not too long ago you spat the dummy over another matter and bade us all farewell. Similar issue if I recall correctly.

Don't spoil all the good work you have done on F1 by getting aggro when you don't need to.

This sort of reminded me of the first time I graduated from deep frying my chips in fat, to using cooking oil. No-one told me that oil didn't boil like fat, and after waiting half an hour - finally put the chip basket in.

LOL, Froth was not the word hehehehe

Actually its a Pentium233. Not that big really. And it's near my left hand - not shoulder....

To some, hypocritical is a very loose term. Define, for example - off topic. No, not here, this is about coffee machines...

You recall incorrectly. The issue was that I was being made fun of. I did not bade farewell, I only said I was going back to an old name.

Don't spoil everything by talking crap that gets me aggro then.

76868 2002-09-08 06:39:00 Sorry Elwin, my memory goes back further than yours. It wasn't a name issue, I may be wrong but I'm sure you got the hump X-( because nobody jumped to attention and saluted when you wanted to do some FAQs.

God knows, I'd defend to the death your right to choose & use any name you like if that's the image you want to project ?:| It's a free world after all, but you gotta expect a few equally free spirits to take the P once in a while and there's no point in being too sensitive. That can ruin your whole day, never mind your reputation.

PS There's really no need to do all the quotes, most people can remember what they wrote over the last 48 hours. Longer than that and it's probably irrelevant anyway.
