I meant that strong language is used in the comments below the video clip on the YouTube page, not in the clip itself.
Best wishes,

The reference to strong language was about the comments, not the video itself.

Okay - I admit it - I need that class. Where do I sign up ? :sad:

When I went for my counselor visit at a college of my choice, I was asked if I meet the foreign language requirement. If so, which language aI took the most.

I proudly responded ENGLISH - K-12 and I apparently was going to get 2-3 more semesters in college !!! The counselor looked at my father and suggested I might be happier in a different vocation since I might not survive college classes. :laugh:

Hi Hans.
Now that you have segued into Monty Python, would it be possible to change the subject line of this thread to "Mangy West Australian Dead Parrot not really worth looking at"?

I could probably arrange to get it (the parrot, not the thread; the thread isn't worth the bullet to put it out of its misery) shot; I think Porky Blair still lives in the town of my youth ...

You want it should be drowned?
P.S. There aren't many fjords in The Yiljgarn. There are a lot of Genejral Mojtors Hojldens, but.

My 15 year old 1200 watts microwave oven "allows" me to use the following keypad buttons: 0, 2, 8, MINUTE PLUS, POWER LEVEL, STOP/CLEAR, STOP.

What more can I ask for ?!?!?!? :smile:

For perfect reheated hot coffee:
  1. Put coffee cup in microwave [Yes - door release button DOES work).
  2. Press 2 then 0.
  3. Press POWER LEVEL three times (Displays 10, 9 8).
  4. Press START (Display starts count down).
  5. IMMEDIATELY Press MINUTE PLUS (Total of 80 Seconds).
  6. When Display reaches 35 Seconds, Press STOP.
  7. Press STOP a second time to shut off microwave.
  8. Remove coffee cup.
  9. Enjoy Coffee :evilgrin:
