She honestly called her kid Cumquat?
Is she aiming to marry Bob Geldof next?

Fortunately, the second child was born a boy; so he didn't wind up with the name of a fruit like her first child, Apple. I just looked up the boys name: Moses, I guess she located him amidst a bit of overgrown brushOriginally Posted by The Atheist

We have a big new shiny Ikea which is the very devil. To enter you have to get the one-way-lift to the 6th floor, and try to work your way down, walking past ll the stuff.don't tell me you actually have Ikea over there. I thought they didn't allow prefab furniture anywhere near the UK.
Yeah, cumquat, apple...I think she might start with flowers now...it's the '60s all over again
Some of the food is nice though.
And they send their kids to the All-the other-kids are- called -stupid - things-too school. So it doesn't matter.Fortunately, the second child was born a boy; so he didn't wind up with the name of a fruit like her first child, Apple.

Okay, now I'm totally confused! All this time I thought the sexy criminal from diehard, Alan Rickman, was married to Emma Thompson and they had two funny looking children...i just heard from another fan on the net that Emma is married to some fellow named Greg...I swear, I can't keep up with them.
That reminds me, don't children loose their front teeth at 7; Angelina jolies kid is still 3; because Angelina still has to be 34...but it is losing it's front teeth...
By the way, who was hotter in her day, Gweneth or her mom...I thought her mom was quite a looker
I've seen some nice looking stuff from Ikea; but I was already miffed when America went from wood funiture and flooring to MDF; but I got used to it because the stuff lasts forever. Now, they have this thin stuff that breaks when the cat jumps on it; and people are trying to put a 60" television on it. I have tons of books and even my oak and pine bookcases are complaining...What do people have against wood; it lasts forever!
Maybe she's a closet Polynesian?I just looked up the boys name: Moses, I guess she located him amidst a bit of overgrown brush
Aside from the world-famous Jonah Lomu, Polynesians have an odd knack of giving peculiarly Biblical names to their kids, lots of Noahs and Lots and Moseses around here.
What in the zarking fardwarks is that avatar?
Cleaning its teeth must take hours!
Usually the first four are all gone by 7
And costs more.
Not to mention, wood doeesn't fit into the 21st century consumer lifestyle/society. What possible use is it to a manufacturer to make something which will last for centuries? Where are you going to get repeat orders?

Navigating Ikea is the hardest thing that I've ever had to do.

That might be it; I didn't realize you were close to all of that great Polynesian food and beaches...Maybe she's a closet Polynesian?

Pauls avatar looks like one of our American actors...way back in the time where we were trying to show how accepting of other nationalities we were by finding people who looked and acted most stereotypical
Ahah, I thought the public records that put Angelina Jolie at 45 were more accurate...The kids will have their wisdom teeth and still be wearing pull ups.
I think the 21st century consumer better start rethinking our plans and stop throwing out grandmas bedframes and dads old ford; our pockets are empty and our furniture and cars are falling apart before we are finished making our credit card payments with the 23% interest.
Juniper, is that you, you're so pretty. They tend to make stores hard to navigate when they want you to look at everything and buy more...do you think it works?
I still like doing my shopping on the computer.
Auckland is about 15% Polynesian.
Samoa, Tonga, Cook Islands, Nuie, Nauru, Palau - take your pick. More of their citizens live in Auckland than in their homeland.
Not to mention throwing grandma and grandpa out with the woven bedspring!I think the 21st century consumer better start rethinking our plans and stop throwing out grandmas bedframes and dads old ford; our pockets are empty and our furniture and cars are falling apart before we are finished making our credit card payments with the 23% interest.

The avatar is Dwayne Dibley from an episode of Red Dwarf. The character is usually called Cat - who evolved over millions of years from the original shps cat on the Red Dwarf spaceship, and is ususally super-cool. I forget what happens in the episode, but the cool Cat gets transformed into Dwayne.
It was a good series with lots of time slip, black hole, robot, computer, virtual world simultion, sci-fi in jokes.
It's here because of the geek celebration thread.

In that case, I'm astounded I didn't realise it, but it's years since I've seen any of RD.
In fact, I nearly fell over the other day when someone's tv happened to be on Coro St and who's on screen but that smegging git Lister!
I watched for a minute in case Kryten popped up.

It was a good series. They tried to re-launch a new series of it last year, but it seemed to be weaker than I remember. You know when you used to watch something and years later you see it's on and give it a whirl only to wonder what you saw in it? It was a bit like that.
I was at Uni when the first series came out. I really enjoyed it. it seemed to break that boring sitcom mould a bit.
From what I remember, it has started to go downhill after the first few series, much as every other tv program does - or maybe we just get used to them.
I always thought the backbone of Britain's comedy was that series always stopped after at most the third or fourth series. From Fawlty Towers to Edgar Briggs, they always left you wanting more.
The worst thing about it all is that two of the very best comedy series aren't available on DVD/video; Clochemerle, without doubt the funniest thing ever to air on tv, and The Secret Life of Edgar Briggs.
I have all of Porridge and many others.

I'm not familiar with Clochemerle or Edgar Briggs. I'll have to bear them in mind.
I agree about the best being stopped after a few series. We used to watch Frazier, but it went on and on, and I just got bored with it. The same thing happened with Roseanne.
Gold fish shoals nibbling at my toes
Fun fun fun in the sun sun sun.
It really had the most inapropriate signiture tune ever.
GEEK ALERT.
The crew had been attacked by a morphing alien that sucked out Cat's coolness, Lister's cowardice and I can't remember what of Rimmer's, but he became unbelievebly reasonable.
I never think about the rest of the world immigrating. I thought in other countries; everyone just happily stayed on their own little piece of land. In the states, everyone thinks we are rich until they realize they have to work 16 hour days to own the mercedes; what do people move to NZ for?
Your dad seems pretty cool; that is the fellow in Bajes pics, right. You've got good genes. But yes, there comes a time when one might want to toss grandma, grandma and the mattress and just keep the savings and the bedframe
My dad used to call me at 6:30 in the morning, tell me there was an emergency; I'd show up half-asleep; "Go find your mom". Mom had dementia and used to try to find her childhood friends in the middle of the night.
I liked Frazier before his brother broke up with that stiff woman; and Roseanne while she was fat and Dan was still healthy
