7. All but the "procrastinating work" part...
Edited on Wed Mar-12-08 11:44 AM by ThinkBlue1966
I have no internet connection from the kitchen where i toil away, unfortunately.

Or maybe fortunately... otherwise, the muffins would burn.

17. You know, I'd love to claim that David St. Hubbins stole that line from ME...
...since I'd been using it way before I ever saw Spinal Tap, but the wanker appears to have uttered the line approximately four years before I was even born. x( :P



(Just kidding, Mr St. Hubbins...I don't really think you're a wanker.)...
