An aquaintance of mine was named Vivian. In the RAAF, his nickname was 'Jack.'

'What, Vivian James *******' I asked?

'No, Vivian Desmond *******' he replied.
Lost me....

Mind you, Mr and Mrs Thomas and their son John
Or
Mr and Mrs Bennent and their son Gordon.
Both on the squadron

Or the in laws Mr Michael **** and his son Michael aka Baby M. Still Baby M 40 years later despite Mrs Michael using Husband Michael and () Son Michael.

Actually, a small apology to all who didn't get it. I should have explained that 'the jack' is an Aussie term for VD.

Ok now? :D

As the old warning posters used to say, "Is 5 minutes of pleasure worth a lifetime of pain?", to which some wit would inevitably add "How do you make it last 5 minutes?"

How Canadians are nice to the World

If you exported it to us, we use the units you do.
If we export it to you, it's marked in the units you use.
If you asked our Federal Government to measure in those units, we do.
We speak the way our nearest neighbours do, we write the way the people we get most books from do.
Every nation randomly throws in French words; it has some caché, a certain je ne sais quoi.

Hockey rinks and equipment are measured in feet and inches, beer is served in pints. Nothing else really matters to us. :D

But are they proper pints or those weedy American ones?
