Oh, and piersk comes from my first name and my surname 😃

      poke You should closed your bold tags. _

      So why did you choose the bouncy balls as your avatar? 😉

        The bouncy balls are a rip-off of a gif I found on our union bulletin board. That gif had just one ball and so i edited it so there were two bouncing in opposite directions.

                        I have a really bad reputation for bein dirty minded don't I. Can't think why...

                        Anyway, the reason I don't come on IRC at the moment is because the only computers I have access to at the moment are on campus and they frown upon IRC.

                        Getting broadband in my house soon tho 😃

                          Which version of The Italian Job? The proper one or that "remake"?

                            Give me some credit. Nothing can beat the original.

                              Two words. Jason Statham.

                              He definitely beats the original, and it earned him a place in the elite Elizabeth's top 5.

                                Is that along with me, Stolzy and Dalecosp?

                                Actually, where is Dale? I haven't seen him around for a while...

                                  Well, here I am. And I've been on /freenode#phpbuilder, but I noticed you said you'd quit that.

                                  Summertime, y'know...I've lots on the platter, and most of it's outside. Except work.

                                  And work. The more I talk here, the less $$ I bring in. I know have a little flashing red number that pops up whenever I open my intranet site and log in, and it keeps telling me to "work harder, play less, or when the bank starts charging interest in Jan '05, you'll be up to your eyeballs in debt...."

                                  Enough of that.

                                  I in no way expect to be on Elizabeth's top 5. I'm just honored to know her and speak to her when appropriate. If we both find time.

                                  That in no way means I hate Piersk, either. Life's funny, eh?

                                  [edit]What changed? Ex-g/f? "I'm sorry?" or "I'm glad you got that straight?"[/edit]

                                  Should I rent "the Italian Job" and become more culturally enlightened?
