i keep hoping those 'forums' are cut adrift, hopefully one day; until then Kevlar suits to the ready, with extra powerful cattle prods and police 'stingers' being as it's the school holidays

My bitch for the day is a politically incorrect one. I spent over an hour interviewing someone in french; he has a green card and is here legally (I think). When I asked him how long he's been in Philadelphia, he said "Since 1973"! Damn, I almost lost my temper. In 1973, I barely spoke english but have managed to do pretty well for myself over the years ... though I admit I was fit to be tied when they kept me back in my first year of high school. My parents, brothers and sister learnt to be fluent in english though the folks always retained a bit of an accent. How can you live in the city of Philadelphia for thirty three years without learning a word of english? Jeez, when in Rome, you know?

@rav009

That standing phone was in my grandmother's house when I was a kid. She had a 3 digit telephone number. It was fun to pick it up and talk to the operator for her to ring other grandma's house.

@gerry1

You need a drinking buddy!

@all

Thank God I don't own a console. I feel it's pretty tame in the DVD forums. We're pretty sedated there. Don'tcha just love this place. Who's next.

@garmoon ... I remember that but I was young, then we had four families to a line and it rang differently for each household.

MY grandma use to wear a hearing aide but in those days, it was just the earpiece and the amplification device was on a chain around her neck. When she spoke on the phone, she held the receiver upside down talking into the mouthpiece but listening with the earpiece at her chest. It always made us giggle.

F*ck the console forums, Jan is a top member. Why do we put up with all this crap from these f*ckwit console tw*ts?



Make Jan a mod & she will rid us of all the knobs in no time!

Then we would all be happy. can't drD do something about this? His site is being screwed up by pillocks.

Us Yorkshiremen don't f*ck about with political correctness, we are renowned for it.

Pillock, is indeed, a marvellous word!

If Jan was given the ban button it would help enormously. I for one would have no qualms in backing her up 100%. I do not think that there are enough mods, Jan knows so much & is such a valuable asset to our forum. I can see no reason why she cannot be made a mod.
I would hate to lose such a highly valued, highly respected & incredibly knowledgeable member through some wishy washy excuses. We simply cannot afford to lose members like this.
Something has to be done as more & more members are leaving. There seem to be little that admin are doing (or are willing) about it.
When will some of the top people realise what is happening?

We seem to be giving our site away to these complete & utter f*uckwits. Why are they being allowed to win? Why aren't the views of the long timers listened to?

Jan is a admin at another big site, doubt he will have to be a mod here, if she was given the status, it would be interesting to say the least :-).

Lol, Thanks for suggesting it to me Creaky :-D

It's so simple to use and if its reliable as its supposed to be, I'll be in love, I've had enough with Windows, years of trouble shooting with it..

Hopefully, Mandriva will save me a lot of stress :-)
