Clive Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Not necessarilly so, but it may work if you put in in the other way round before you plug it in and switch it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twooks Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 naw I agree with the o midK, can't just go around plugging things in like that - or you'll go up in a puff of smoke just like he did. B-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Jones Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Is someone trying to confuse me here? It's not difficult, I assure you. I'd just got the hang of the idea that "omidknight" (who writes in tiny fonts for some reason) was Robbie, the male half of "icelander." Now we get a thread from "o midKnight" - with a space and a capital K, nothing written in it, and no profile info at all. So this ISN'T Robbie, is it?

omidknight Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 aw sorry folks - just trying to keep Bruce happyLooks like I had my own account ages ago after all - then by chance I picked the same username and got the passwords mixed up and starting posting on the old account - so omidknight is robbiePersonally I blame Bruce, as he made me do it, and now the font is too small and I have gone up in a puff of smoke and ..Does anybody know the tale of the Father son and the donkey on a journey? On the journey he could not keep everbody happy and at one point was carrying the donkey - cant remember the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Newell Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Are you actually Icelandic Robbie? If so it could go someway to explaining a few things. I mean, Icelandic motorsport involves hurling supercharged, nitrous oxide injected jeeps with ridiculous tyres up sheer cliffs of ash and dirt. Icelands other claim to sporting fame is the "Viking" contenders in World's strongest man, and then of course there's Bjork!! :-S (only kidding Rob :D ) D.

I didn't think you wanted to continue with that topic Richard. Anyway nitrous oxide isn't a fuel in itself but it is a very good oxidising agent which, when injected into an engine along with a big dose of fuel you get lots more power. Usually only used for short bursts though as it does have a tendency to burn the piston crowns out if over used. D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twooks Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 do you mean this one robbie http://www.fables.org.uk/tmhsatd.htm and remember .. .. .. it´s all right now, I learned my lesson well. You see, ya can´t please everyone, so ya got to please yourself Ricky Nelson B-) HE MILLER, HIS SON, AND THEIR DONKEY "I shall have to sell that donkey of ours," said a miller to his son. "I can not afford to keep him through the winter. I will take him to town this very morning to see if I can find a buyer. You may go with me." In a little while the miller, his son, and the donkey were on their way to town. They had not gone far when they met some girls going to a party. They were talking and laughing as they went along. One of them said, "Look at that man and boy driving a donkey. One of them surely might ride." The miller heard what they said, and quickly made his you mount the donkey, while he walked along at its side. After a while they came to a group of old men who were talking very earnestly. "There," said one, "I was just saying that boys and girls have no respect for the aged. You see it is true in this case. See that boy riding while his old father has to walk." "Get down, my son," said his father, "and I will ride." So they went on. They next met some women coming from town. "Why!" they cried, "your poor little boy is nearly tired out. How can you ride and make him walk?" So the miller made his son ride on the donkey behind him. They were now in town. A man coming down the street called to the miller, "Why do you make your donkey carry such a load? You can carry him better than he can carry you." At this the miller and his son got off the donkey. They tied the donkey's legs together, turned him over on his back; and began to carry him. A crowd soon gathered to see the strange sight. As they were crossing a bridge the donkey became frightened at the hooting of the crowd. He broke loose, fell into the river, and was drowned. The miller was angry and ashamed. He said, "There! I have tried to please everybody and have only made a fool of myself. After this I shall do as I think best and let people say what they will."
