2 cents


I simply had to add my 2 cents to the conversation.

Trouble is you didn't quite grasp the concept then, still don't over 25yrs later

...and yet you still keep doing what we tell you. What is wrong with you people?!?

Bit of an indulgence don't you think - thought you were supposed to be studying

I think you'll find its 3 cents now. Rampant inflation, ya know
By the way, thanks for posting behind me, and saving me having to break whatever 'rule' Kraj dreamed up five minutes ago

Yes, I do need a bit of indulgence every now and then as well as I must be in a maschosistic mood to put my two cents into this conversation.

Also, don't roll your eyes at me danny boy.

PS, it's lab night in my VB.net class. I can do what I want, as long as I get my program done.

Rules? I am not aware of any rules, and I'm sure they don't apply to a cute red-headed southern belle such as myself.

Actually we ignored you and restored freedom and democracy to the island, any chance you guys will get just one of them?

How many sidewinders did we give you? At $83k a pop, I'm guessing you owe us a couple of those islands...

I think the original poster was misinformed, the United States has never given us anything

Thats not strictly true. The USA has given us

1) Rampant obesity amongst our children who eat their cardboard fat laden burgers

2) Elvis Presley

3) The Fabulous Beach Boys

4) A sue-all culture

5) super high petrol prices (about $8 a gallon)

6) educational TV shows showing the American way of life

7) most of all they've given us a reason to be targetted by terror groups so we can have our people killed at random, all thanks to a total religious freak who thinks he rules the world from the white house.

shall I go on?

at a cost to you of tens of billions of dollars, what does Iraq owe you? why not take their thousands of homeless children and adults (who's lives the USA has destroyed) and give them a new start in the USA . . . . . . . heaven forbid eh Ken?
as Greg said the other week, you wouldn't want to see the reality of what the USA has done would you?

Yes I forgot to add the words of value to the end of the sentence, shall I do the American thing and edit the thread in the hope that nobody notices?

You may as well, I edited mine 4 minutes after you posted - but I didn't know your post was there.
I recall a couple of weeks ago one of our colonials edited a thread much later, then picked me up on the new edit which of course I hadn't read -

Well I would have thought that was blindingly obvious Colin. Just their oil revenues for the next 20 years, nothing too much

why not take their thousands of homeless children and adults (who's lives the USA has destroyed) and give them a new start in the USA

Ummm.... is that bit /compulsory/?

You boy's sure are on rampage this morning. Sorry your day is off to such a bad start...

Well its 11:30am here and there's no improvement yet apart from a phone call from a very good friend

Does it help when I log on in the morning and you get to hack away at me?

apart from a phone call from a very good friend

Thanks Col but I don't recall ringing you this morning

 

[ColinEssex]

you know you like it

Thanks Col but I don't recall ringing you this morning

sorry mate, you're the wrong sex

[KenHigg]

you know you like it

At one time it was like a second cup of coffee for me, but now, it just seems like kind of an obligation I have to you guys...

I like the way you edit out my smilies when you are on the warpath ...

1) Rampant obesity amongst our children who eat their cardboard fat laden burgers

Sorry.... when we heard you folks constantly call each other "thick" we misinterprated. Our bad.

2) Elvis Presley

If he turns up, please send him back. We miss him.

3) The Fabulous Beach Boys

Er... you can keep them.

4) A sue-all culture

That phrase is trademarked under U.S. trademark law 5580-10, section 217.5c. You'll be hearing from our lawyers.

5) super high petrol prices (about $8 a gallon)

You could cut that in half by taking all the taxes off. But then you'd use as much as we do and then you wouldn't be able to complain about our oil consumption.

6) educational TV shows showing the American way of life

Such as Blue Collar TV, the Jeff Foxworthy Show, Dukes of Hazard, Hee Haw, Bonanza, and Fox News.

7) most of all they've given us a reason to be targetted by terror groups so we can have our people killed at random, all thanks to a total religious freak who thinks he rules the world from the white house.

OK serious on this one.... I think the proper people to give "all thanks to" for being targeted by terror groups are the terrorists, not Bush.
