BL> since Haig explained safe sex to me, where you fiddle the dial

 BL> of a safe and come into money,



I've always found that a safe is a bit frigid. If you don't get the
combination just right, you'll never get into it.



 BL> I have been doing it to the toaster (I don't have a safe) in the

 BL> hope of coming into a bit of bread. Of course there is great

 BL> danger in this. Not only must one be certain that it is not

 BL> turned on, but it must not be plugged in, either.



And of course you must never, ever share a toaster. Also, you must be
careful that it doesn't pop up before you're done or else you can get some
terrible injuries. Not that I'm speaking from personal experience you
understand.



Is coming into money like shooting your wad?



 BL>   Printers like to work the other way, and cost the books according to

 BL> print run size. A run of 2,000 is about the minimum unless you want to

 BL> pay the same and get 200.



I was wandering through a show a Darling Harbour a while ago, and I'm sure
I saw something about printing books on demand. I only saw the sign and
didn't stop to look so I'm not sure whether it was a service they were
offering or some equipment to do it.



 BL>> Would you believe the third paragraph?

 PM>> I don't think so Max.

 BL>   Ah! A fan.



Guilty.



 PM>>> And do pennants for one's sins.



 PM>> Hey, it's the best I could do on short notice. Actually, it's

 PM>> the best I could be on any sort of notice. I'm rather proud of

 PM>> it though.



 BL>   It was brilliant. In fact, I'll steal it.







 PM>> It does, however, appear to have been a bit too cerebral for

 PM>> certain others on this BBS.



 BL>   What's breakfast food got to do with it?



Ah! therein lies the story! You see, some people have what could be termed
serial brains. That is they can only think of one thing at once. So, for
instance, they can't read a message and actually understand what it's
about. THe parallel brains don't have this limitation and can, say, chew on
a piece of toast and read the paper at the same time.



 BL>   If you're considering a life in the diplomatic service, don't give

 BL> up your day job just yet.



Damn! Now I'll have to scratch that one of the list as well.
