Someone has put one heck of a lot of work into that Virgle one, the sad thing is, someone like Bill Gates, or Branson, if they got their heads together and their hands in their pockets, and some imagination - something like that is do-able.

We went to the moon (apparently) and just stopped. How boring.

I am glad you said apparently, there is no way the Yanks went to the moon. I have worked on some Yank machine's. No way.

The Daily Express had a story about a terrapin that smokes 10 cigarettes a day. There was a photo of it with a fag, almost as big as itself, in its mouth. ;)

I suppose it doesnt really matter anyway, we could go now if we wanted to. Not sure why you'd want to - Mars is much more interesting. Build a few less airplanes, one less sub here and there and you could have billions to channel into NASA, or the European version, for R&D etc.

Don't hold your breath ... given the choice between some productive R&D, and another Nimitz class aircraft carrier, the yanks would go for the carrier every time. You can't intimidate people with R&D, but you can sure scare the s**t out of them with the Harry S Truman.;)

This one I used on a female friend of mine who is in love with her cell phone: I told her that because of the increased use of cell phones, the system had to be cleaned out, and that she would be well advised to put her phone in a plastic bag and then check out the six o'clock news to see when it would be safe to take it out of the bag ... she went for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And this woman votes!

BURNLEY TO PLAY 1ST HOME GAME IN BLACKBURN

Burnley Football Club have revealed the Clarets may be forced to play their first home game of next season at Ewood Park.
The announcement's come as a shock to Claret's fans who could be forced to travel to Blackburn to see their team in action.
It's being blamed on the large-scale building work at Turf Moor, as part of the multi-million pound ground re-development.
