Athiest- Might I recommend Maui? Lovely and not so littered with tourists and hotels as is the main island
Prend- Also very impressive! That is a lovely wall. How long did that take you?

Prendrelmick, Jocky is hugely impressed, your not rebuilding Hadrian's wall are you? We are not thinking of invading again, well, not for awhile anyway. :)
Lovely bit of work!Quote:

Athiest, I can say hand on heart, for once, I have never been deported from Natal, everywhere else on the Planet, but not Natal. :) Question, is blasphemy a victimless crime?
What a mark of the man that is. His Apartheid novels are the best treatises I've read on the subject.Quote:

Athiest, the God police have got the good sense not to arrest you, they know they would have an articulate well argued response on their hands, its not good for business. I do agree with your philosophy, Hitchens and Dawkins are carrying the torch for challenging accepted religious ideology. Basically it is mumbo jumbo used by strong personalities to control the weak minded. Now, another question, name three items necessary for male wellbeing? Anyone can join in. My three, Swiss knife, with titanium bottle opener, can of wife repellent and mistress. This may be a wee bit controversial. :)
A Shed
comfy slippers,
possesion of the telly remote,
selective deafness

I must be getting old

Civilisation could disappear tomorrow, and if I've got those three things, I can live forever.
The world's your shed!Quote:

From one fisherman to another Athiest, that is the exact same line I used to catch my can of Atlantic salmon. I am considering changing to a 20kg line and perhaps hooking a couple of tins of caviare. :nod: Whifflingpin, brevity is the source of all wit, ' A shed ' impressive. Prendrelmick, I am seriously starting to worry about you, ' SLIPPERS ' :lol:
Independence Day!! So what is is the offing as far as drinks go? I spent most of the day today getting my studio together, building walls and moving. Nothing like some heavy construction and carpentry to wet the appetite and work up a thirst. I came home to steaks on the grill (New York Strips... so red they were still mooing) and some really good beer: Samuel Smith Imperial Stout, Beamish Irish Stout, this really unique banana bread beer:banana:, and we'll finish off with some Three Philosophers while listening to Miles Davis (Kind of Blue) and perhaps some Stones (Let it Bleed) cranked up real loud (Hey... I'm just following the instructions on the LP cover!) if I'm really blitzed. :banana::banana::banana::banana:

Not that the French are all that thankful for bailing their asses out of two World Wars. Next time they have any problems with the Germans we should all just sit back and watch.:D
Oh dear, we're delving dangerously close to a forbidden political discussion here...
So I refrain from further commentary on the matter...
Would anyone like a Sam Adams?
