    It wasn't exactly difficult, the 'change' had been advertised in advance.

  3. Heh. It's something to do with memory and time and electromagnetism.

    Wasn't exactly tricky. Not quite sure why the even wankier name though.

    You *are* pregnant.

  7. Well yes, in some respects you could describe it as such. But not in a
    increase in the human population fashion.

  9. I'm not sure whether to be insulted or flattered. Made me smile
    though.

    Not by the normal definition, no.

  11. The old one was chosen at a particular time in my life and had
    associations I wanted to leave behind.

  12. In uk.rec.motorcycles, Work in progress amazed us all with this pearl of
    wisdom:
    Not you as well?

    UKRM should start a freak show.

    identification wasn't tricky given the person's two posting names
    appeared as part of a conversation in a single thread (though admitedly
    in a much stupider NG[1] than this one).

    [1] I don't lurk in it, but when I first saw a post from "Work in
    progress", I was 90% sure of who it was - due to the language style -
    and 2 minutes googling confirmed it.

    Do you really think simply adding more gears allows the car to run
    efficiently at higher speeds?

    You don't catch us that easily - we know they'd have to be *higher* gears.

    Here's something I've never understood. People often talk about a
    time when they ate "dodgy mussels" or something, and the tale usually
    involves "I needed to shit immediately on getting home from the
    restaurant", but what about this:

    http://www.familydoctor.co.uk/htdocs/BOWELS/BOWELS_specimen.html

    "The average passage time of undigested food residues through the
    human gut is about 50 hours in men and 57 hours in women, but ranges
    from well under 20 to over 100 hours. It also changes from one day to
    the next. Most of this time (80 to 90 per cent) is spent in the
    colon."
    I don't get it either. Need a shit? Go to the bog. Don't need a
    shit? Don't.

    My understanding is if you've got the shits it's usually down to whatever
    you ate 4 hours previously.

    Ben Blaney emerged from their own little world to say
    In the same way that drugs affect your bowels. Toxins within the mussels
    might be absorbed by the small intestines and transported by the blood to
    affect the proper operation of the large intestines.
