The Philosopher & the Cash Machine

09/15/2007 5:11 PM

So, Rene Descarte goes up to the cash machine thinking...'shall I get ze 30 or 40 quid?'

What will he decide and why?

(This thread is complete lunacy based on a conversation I overheard! Hopefully it will result in a 'humour' tag)

I loves those little mousies,
Mousies what I love to eat.
I bite they little heads off,
And chew upon they tiny feet.

Ok, it's early, you're going to have to explain why the tec in tecnical (sic) is in italics (but hey, I get some points for noticing, eh?!). And why no "H"?

And you need to explain why you were reading that dirty mac link...I'm starting to worry about you.

<Note to self: keep tweezers on person at all times when dealing with Kris. That beard is just too tempting!>

LOL. New towns can be such sprawling place. Perhaps the moustached one is faking to organize his own ransom. Then again, strange things happen...
