    I was doing some experiments in the laboratory the other day. I dipped a gazelle in some Nitric acid - it melted but nothing too exciting happened. I sprinkled shrimps into Sulphur - they got burnt slightly, but it wasn't that spectacular. I then dropped a Panda into some Ammonia - suddenly, there was pandemonium everywhere!

    Not sure if many of you are aware of this, and to be honest as long as you aren't doing anything wrong it shouldn't be a problem, because as we all know our security services are 100% pure of any hint of mis-using this information, I mean, it's not as if we'd ever go to war over something they mis-represented is it ? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7985339.stm Anyway, now Big Brother can see where you've been, who you are talking to and what you are reading. So if you want to keep things a secret - buy a newspaper, use a payphone and leave your GPS/Mobile Phone/Blackberry at home!

    A man approaches a farmer 1 day and asks him will he sell him his donkey foal, the farmer replies yes and they agree on a price of £500. The man then says that he will be round the next day to collect the donkey. The next day the man arrives to collect the donkey, and the farmer explains that the donkey has since died. The man says not to worry I’ll still give u £50 for it. The farmer is delighted with getting money for a dead donkey. The farmer asks the man why on earth he wants a dead donkey for. The man says that he was going to raffle the donkey off. The farmer says u can’t raffle a dead donkey to which the man says of course you can. A month or so later the farmer…

    I am off course reffering to the "peacfull demonstration", aired on yesterdays news, where a group of fanatics hurled insults, abuse and slanderous accusations at the soldiers returning from a tour of duty. Then the organiser was interviewed on TVAM this morning - why do they give these vile people air time ? He even had the audacity to compare the soldiers (who have been training the Iraqis to look after themselves) to the Nazis under Hitler. It turns my stomach to think out taxes are helping to support this kind of scum. Thier actions were clearly likely to lead to a breach of the peace, so the police had the power to arrest them, why didn't they?? I can see …

    Does anyone know where to buy a decent radar and laser detector for my R6? There are already enough speed cameras, but you learn where these are, now there are more portable speed camera vans and the hand held speed guns around my town. I still have a clean licence and I'm a careful rider but if I'm being monitored everywhere I go its only a matter of time until they start lining their pockets with my hard earned cash. If only there was a way to combat the Average speed cameras too.

  12. Police are warning all men who frequent clubs, parties & local pubs to be alert and stay cautious when offered a drink by any woman. Many females use a date-rape-drug on the market called ' Beer' . The drug is found in liquid form and is available anywhere. It comes in bottles, cans, or from taps and in large kegs.. Beer is used by female sexual predators at parties and bars to persuade their male victims to go home and sleep with them. A woman needs only to get a guy to consume a few units of Beer and then simply ask him home for no-strings-attached sex. Men are rendered helpless against this approach. After several Beers , men will often succumb to th…

    Driving your car and talking on the 'phone.....! Car drivers that are texting while driving......! I don't think any threat of licence points or fines will ultimately stop this phenomenon. What if I was to offer a discussion suggesting that learner drivers should be tested officially as able to drive and talk, drive and textmessage as part of the accepted Driving Test? In a controlled Driving Test Environment, it makes sense to test an individual's ability to do a three point turn, park between vehicles, navigate traffic flow, drive uphill from a stationary position. Why not include the talk and drive/talk and text ability. Most would fail! It would be…

    My eldest daughter leaves Primary school in July, and for the past 2 weeks all i have heard is "Can i go in the limo with Sophie and Savannah mam"....now i beleive that end of school years are becoming very Americanised, and really kids aged 11 shouldnt even be worrying about a bloody limo for their last day. BUT - i agreed as these are her friends, and i thought well maybe it will make her last day memorable and fun. Beginning of the week she came home rather upset - appparently a couple of other girls are now going in this limo - one of them the school bully who has made Courtney's life hell since she has been at that school - and she has told Courtney that she can…

Every biker that we passed smiled,waved and nodded,why cant car drivers be more happy??? Anyway i just wanted to share with you,i'm off work this week so i'll be getting a few more miles under my belt.For an old bike the XJ900 was great fun with loads of character and very comfy.
