Would someone please remind me what century I'm in :sad:

Hmm. Can't get the link to work.

All that sinning, I expect...

I can't get it to work either.. tried a couple of times last night, and again tonight, with IE and Firefox.

I'm obviously not as pure as what I thought....:undecided:

Liked this bit:


vomiting bloodshot and watery eyes

We sinners prize the eyeballs as delicacies, you know...

I double checked the link and it's working for me with both Opera and Firefox version 2.0.0.11.

Guess I'm going to heaven then? Or... could it be that you both just don't need saving? :sad:

In my case, that constitutes an extraordinary claim. Evidence?

I was merely asking :tongue:

At least I know what to get some folk here for Xmas.

[Lord Muck oGentry]

Nah, don't bother sending me the holy water. If the truth be told, my besetting sin is the fairly harmless Sloth. I'd have gone for the swankier Accidie

but it seemed a lot of bother for very little gain in wickedness. :smiley:

[LeQue]

Accidie... Very nice word. And plus it takes some heat off our poor wee friends from the Megalonychidae family~

[Lord Muck oGentry]

I suppose that's what they mean by a taxon sin...

[MischiefMonkey]

Wayne enterprises inc eh?

Well, if Batman believes in it.....:cheesy:

There was an old joke about an Irishman coming back through customs after a trip to Eastern Europe.
"What's in this bottle, Sir?"
"Er - holy water"
Customs man opens bottle, sniffs.
"Vodka!"
Man: "Glory be to God, a miracle!"

Off topic: Skirrid is 'that which has been shaken' in Welsh. Is there a story there?

Skirrid would be a great name for sparkling welsh water taken from ye olde sacred springs of an ancient holy well. Bottled nicely and sold at great expense. Marketed with some glossy TV adverts, craggy cliffs green valleys, tumbling waterfalls, all that sort of thing and the slogan would be:

Skirrid.
Shaken not stirred.

best served chilled for a holier taste :cheesy::cheesy:

I'm originally from Hereford, and the Skirrid ( a small mountain) is visible from parts of the county. That's why I picked it, without even knowing the Welsh meaning. There's probably a story relating to the hill, but not one relating to me.

This sounds a nice pub to hang around:

Not sure, but I think I´ve been there, two or three years ago.
